Summary
The bell over the door chimed like it always did—soft, apologetic, a little old-fashioned for a shop surrounded by cafés with minimalist signage and espresso machines that hissed like offended cats.
Kaz looked up automatically from the ledger he was pretending to balance.
“Inej,” Kaz said, before he could stop himself.
She smiled when she saw him, bright and unguarded, the kind of smile that made the rest of the shop feel like a set dressing. “Kaz.”
From behind the counter, Jordie made a loud, theatrical sound of suffering. “You greet her like she’s a regular customer.”
“She is a regular customer,” Kaz shot back.
“She’s here more often than our suppliers,” Jordie said. “I’m just saying. If we charged rent—”
“Hi, Jordie,” Inej interrupted pleasantly.
Jordie grinned. “My favorite sociology menace. What’s the damage today?”

The Rietveld brothers run a bookstore in the bustling city of Amsterdam. Inej is an overworked, harried university student that needs a quiet place to study, more than anything else.Bookmarked by tripsanis

Summary
Walking into his bakery was single handedly, the most beautiful human Nick had ever seen in his life. Nick almost pinched himself there and then, just to make sure he wasn’t having some kind of wet dream. The person was a bit shorter than Nick, long wavy hair, thick eyebrows, bright blue eyes and a face sculpted by gods. They were dressed rather casually, black jeans and a button down and Nick could see a backpack on their shoulders.
“Hi,” the person said in a soft ethereal voice.
God, why did a customer have to come in right now? Nick had left the front door open but had put up a sign about the bakery being closed to avoid anyone coming in.
“Hi, we’re Nick right now and I’m closed,” Nick said, words jumbling themselves. “I mean, Nellie’s Bakery isn’t open because I’m getting audited. Not like bad food or anything. Just like, I need a loan and the bank wants to send some guy down here to make sure I’m not running an illegal drug operation out the back. Which I’m not.” Nick held up his hands, wishing his mouth would just stop moving. “I promise any white dust is purely sugar.”

Summary
“Yeah, this was a mistake. I’m sorry but I’m gonna go.”
“Wait, what? Seriously?”
“Bye, Charlie.”
Charlie watches in mild shock as NNick_2277 pushes through dancing bodies on his way out.

Summary: Charlie is a bit jaded and doesn't really date. Nick is shockingly sincere and doesn't really do casual. They have some stuff to figure out but knowing these two, it'll be worth the ride. There's no major angst in here, it's mostly a gentle and fluffy (grown-up) Boys Falling In Love story, with dashes of anxiety, humour, awkwardness and a widdle bit of smut. I figured another online dating-adjacent Heartstopper AU won’t hurt nobody, right? -

Summary
A brand-new season of The Traitors is about to begin, and twenty-two complete strangers are stepping into a Scottish castle armed with nothing but optimism, questionable teamwork skills, and wildly misplaced confidence. Among them: Nick Nelson, golden retriever, who immediately falls head over heels with Charlie Spring, gay nerd, who somehow befriends half the castle before the first mission can even begin.
Between breakfast, missions, Round Tables, and nightly paranoia, the contestants scramble to work out who the Traitors are… while also trying not to embarrass themselves on national television.
Between suspicious glances, secret meetings, and far too many castle corridors, Nick and Charlie keep finding their way back to each other—sharing stolen smiles, whispered theories, and just a touch of accidental flirting. It would be the perfect budding romance… if only they weren’t trapped in a game designed to make everyone doubt absolutely everything.
Or...
The Traitors AU!
