They exchanged greetings and stood close to one another in silence. It was another hour until the watch changed, but Dexius didn’t question it. Neither did he question why Florianus chose to stand so near. It was a cold night; you embraced warmth whenever it was offered.

lie to me (lie next to me) by susiecarter for Sandrine Shaw (Sandrine)

Summary
The first two targets were almost on a line with each other, though not quite. The third shot's going to take a bigger adjustment; David sweeps sideways with the rifle, keeping an eye up to the scope. And the arc of it, finding his aim, gets him a clear, sharp split second of Devereaux.
Devereaux's face, to be specific. Upturned, expressionless.
And looking right at David, because of course it only took two shots for him to identify David's perch.

Bookmarker's Notes
"He doesn't think about Devereaux, about Devereaux's hand in his, Devereaux's arm around him, Devereaux's mouth against the side of his forehead. He lies there, and he doesn't think about anything at all; and sooner or later, he falls asleep."

"What," David snaps, "that's the thing you didn't notice?"
"I did," Peter admits, which is somehow about three hundred times worse than if he hadn't.

"Somehow," the guy says, "I'd imagined you'd be taller."
Tommy raises an eyebrow, with a distant, patronizing kind of curiosity—the kind that, on Bubonic's face, says he's indulging you, playing along, by bothering to pretend there might be something interesting you have to say.
"Bubonic, I mean," the guy adds, half-hushed. "You're him, right?"

"Tommy can't pinpoint precisely what it is that makes his skin prickle, that triggers the slow lurch of his gut. But he stands there, mouth abruptly dry, heart pounding, and he can't figure out how to look away from the guy."

"I am lucky to have met you, Lois Lane," she said quietly.
"All right, all right, don't get mushy on me," Lois told her unsteadily, and then took her stupid hand off Diana's stupid shoulder and went back to her desk before she could really fuck this up.❤️

"It was by far the worst time to get distracted by that look in Reid’s eyes or the sensation of his beard or the heaviness of his touch. Geoffrey had plenty of time to focus on not thinking about that once they made it out of here alive."

For a moment it looks like Reid is going to say yes, but then he sways and leans more heavily against the wall. His infuriatingly apologetic expression is answer enough.

Bookmarker's Notes
"He can see Reid’s face lose a fraction of the deathly paleness. That’s good, it means it’s working, that they will probably get out of this alive, but Geoffrey thinks my blood did this and my blood is inside him and then he’s mine. The thought feels like a blow, and he tries to stop thinking about it. The feel of Reid’s lips on him doesn’t help. It feels like a lover’s kiss, and he knows it isn’t, but – "

Summary
The painting is as good a place to start the conversation as anything. Bond looks at him, a glance at first, though Q doesn’t for a moment believe that glance isn’t enough to let Bond know a dozen different things about Q. Then Bond looks him over more carefully. There’s a moment of stillness, and then nothing really changes in Bond’s expression, but Q is suddenly sure Bond has made some kind of conclusion about him.

"The first time it happened, Robert almost didn’t catch the little tell that tipped him off. And with hindsight, that made him think it wasn’t the first time – just the first time he had been aware of. Or worse, the first time he had been intended to be aware of."

The Heart Is by wednesday for thraced
Fandoms: DC Extended Universe, Black Adam (Movie 2022)
10 Jul 2023
Tags
Summary
He didn’t just get stripped down into metaphysical dust and scattered through the universe. He died right at the very center of the anomaly, the breach into the underworld. If the breach could pull souls in, if it pulled in anyone, it definitely pulled in Kent.
As he listens to Teth Adam reassure Maxine that the remains scattered across the city were only bones driven by demons under Sabbac’s control and not souls of the people they once belonged to, the haze that’s been hanging over Cater ever since the battle ended finally lifts. He finally knows what he has to do.
A bad plan is so much better than no plan. And this time it’s going to be Carter’s bad plan.

in search of traces (of it, of you) by susiecarter for Sandrine Shaw (Sandrine)
Fandoms: Eye Candy (TV)

Summary
The worst part about this whole experience so far, Bubonic thinks, is the boredom.
It won't hold that title for long, obviously. He's well aware of that. They've been toying with him, that's all; they'll escalate soon enough, and to somewhere significantly less pleasant. Breaking bones, or cutting his fingers off one at a time, or something else equally grisly and unfortunate. He isn't looking forward to it, especially if it really is the fingers after all. He's never found dictation software particularly efficient.

Summary
"Jennie," Charles says. "And Todd—forgive me, I realize we haven't formally met." He'd have dug the name out of his memory in time; Alan's focus on the question of baby names had been intense, for several months, and he'd often asked Charles to analyze the possibilities, their origins and meanings, to help narrow down the options. But with the goggles offering it to him, neat green-white print, it's impossible to pretend to need to have it told to him.
"Dr. McNider," Todd says quietly, and swallows. "Mr. Dugan said you might know what to do. We—it's about the Shade."
(Or: Jennie, Todd, and the Shade got in trouble, and now the Shade is lost, injured, in the Shadowlands. Rescuing him turns out to be a little more complicated than Dr. McNider expected, on more than one level—but there isn't a lot McNider wouldn't do to help a friend who saved his life, a friend he's maybe a teeny bit in love with, including letting that friend hitch a ride for a while.)

Summary
There's something wrong with his eyes. That's the first thing he knows—and he doesn't understand how or why he knows it, what makes him so sure that it's not normal to look at the world like this: with a red-gold overlay on top of it, lines tracing out all the surfaces and shapes around him, scrolling ticking numbers in the corner of his vision with labels like SYSTEM INTEGRITY and THREAT LEVEL.

Summary
"No."
Kent looks at him.
"To whatever stupid thing you're thinking about doing," Carter specifies, after a moment. Any trace of warmth or humor has drained entirely from his face; his eyes are intent, dark and grave. "Not happening."
Kent sets his jaw. "Carter—"
"No," Carter says again, as if Kent might somehow not have heard him the first two times. "You've seen the world engulfed in flame and darkness, and you've seen me kick it. Right? You haven't seen yourself dying, Kent, and that's for a reason. That must be for a reason." He reaches out, sets an open palm over one lapel of Kent's waistcoat. "Whatever happens, you don't die here. You can't."
