    Summary

    Gerard had welcomed something dark and terrible, he was little more than a puppet of blood and cells and calcium to it, and he had no way of forcing it out.

    He let it consume him.

    ***

    Gerard Way has a gift, a sixth-sense. Mikey Way loves ghost hunting. A typical EVP session goes terribly wrong, and Gerard is left without his soul. Mikey tries anything, everything, to get his brother back-- Even abandoning him at a speed dating event, a force of sociability, where a chance-encounter with Frank Iero takes Gerard deeper into the world of spirits and unfinished business.

    Frank has a dead best friend. Gerard only feels real when the dead are near.

    Both are haunted.

    Together, they might be able to do something about that.

    Summary

    "Hey, sorry about that, I was just—Eddie?”

    Eddie’s head shot up at the sight of Buck, frozen halfway towards his seat. “Buck?”

    Buck let out an awkward chuckle and glanced around. “There must be a mix-up, I’ll go ask—”

    “No!” Eddie practically yelled the word, and then he winced at the desperation in his own voice. Belatedly, he realized it was possible that people who were interested in men were supposed to be sitting there. But Buck was watching him with wide eyes, still paused leaning on his chair, so Eddie added, “I could use a six-minute break. You know, from finding out how many siblings every woman in this bar has.”

    Buck’s eyes glinted in the dim bar lighting. He finally took the seat and asked, “oh, so you don’t care about how many siblings I have?”

    ——

    Eddie and Buck finally go on a date. It just takes them three times to realize it.

    Summary

    Frank was here. At a speed dating event. Which meant that he’d spent his evening sitting across from a dozen other women, looking for the same thing she was - a relationship.

    The realization made her stomach sink. For months now, she’d been telling herself there was a reason Frank hadn’t made a move. Maybe he wasn’t ready after the divorce. Maybe he wasn’t even interested in dating at all - maybe he was too busy with work and the kids to even think about it. But he was here, which meant none of those things were true.

    Frank wanted a relationship - just not with her.

    Summary

    “Hobbies and interests?” Damian asked like a robot. He was looking at Danny in the way someone would examine a painting they were writing a paper on. Bored, analytical, like they were expecting a C+.

    “I like space, and um, engineering. Like NASA and-” Danny was promptly cut off.

    “I like weapons and animals. What are your prospects for dating?” the boy asked, pen quickly noting down whatever it was that he decided from Danny’s response.

    Prospects for dating?? A date, preferably???

     

    Otherwise known as: Danny goes speed dating in Gotham. Damian Wayne is a person with a long list of expectations, but thankfully none of them say ‘No Ghosts’.

    Summary

    Ash grey hair framed artfully around his face, sharp eyes and cheekbones and a full mouth; the stranger looks like an idol if Chan ever saw one. Or a fuckin’ angel sent from up high.

    Then he says in a clementine-sweet lilt, “Lee Minho, ’98. If I was your sleep paralysis demon and attacked you in the middle of the night, how would you react?”

    Chan blinks. “What.”

    Summary

    "So what brings you here, huh? Shitty breakup with your ex and you're trying everything and anything to get back into the dating scene?" Leo thinks he's so goddamn smart. Sangwon won't give him the satisfaction.

    "Isn't it a rule to not talk about our exes?"

    "Oh, you read those? Didn't think it would be necessary, to be honest. It's speed dating, not rocket science," Leo expresses.

    Summary

    "Just say yes to the Polyjuice, Remus," Sirius sighed. "Say yes. Meet me again as a stranger, lie about your life, I'll lie about mine, and see if you match with me in the end. If you do, I'll let this go."

    "And if we don't match?"

    "Then, I don't know. Then at least we'll know."

    Remus turns forty-two. Sirius has a crisis about it.

    Summary

    Link to the group fic prompt!

    Have you ever wondered what would happen if your favorite GoT/ASOIAF characters met on a dating app?

    Are they there by choice or did some well intentioned but very misguided friend set up the profile for them in hopes for a much needed love match?

    Maybe your fav has never been able to find The One because every single date is The One? And they are sincerely working on that, honest, but can you fault them for falling head over heels with just about anyone when they just have so much love to give?

    Or maybe they are the traditional type, and trust no one more than a professional match maker to set them up with the potential love of their life for a couple of grand? Who cares if the match maker has obviously fake red hair, speaks with an unplaceable accent and finds your love by starring deep in her flames… erm.. fireplace? She’s a P 👏 R 👏 O 👏 F 👏 E 👏 S 👏 S 👏 I 👏 O 👏 N 👏 A 👏 L 👏

    So here we go! Come join us, guys! It's open to all, just please check out the link for like the two rules that apply!

    Summary

    Soleum interrupts Agent Choi by grabbing his shoulder to bow to the air, forcing him down too.

    “Thank you for your hard work. I have a boyfriend now, please tell elder that this one appreciates their consideration,” Soleum says loudly, sparing a glance at Agent Choi, who’s giving him a bemused look out of the corner of his eye.

    'Please work with me' he all but internally screams while maintaining his poker face.

    Kim Soleum's very caring guardian sets him up with a matchmaker service, much to his suffering.

    Summary

    It all sounded very open-and-shut. He could do this. Three short dates with three strangers who had also chosen to humiliate themselves by attending a dating-event. He'd even get to have a few drinks in the meantime, pink and bubbly as they might be. Honestly, how bad could it be?

    Harry reluctantly agrees to participate in an upscale speed-dating service (curtesy of his bad, bad friends) and it might have been alright if it wasn't for faulty magic and/or a ridiculous coincidence, that lands him in a cozy but inescapable lounge with Draco Malfoy, who he hasn't seen in years.

    Summary

    “How much alcohol do you drink on an average week?” Achilles demands.

    “None. Do you smoke?”, Patroclus hits back.

    “Never. Do you consume recreational drugs on a regular basis?”

    “Assuming coffee doesn’t count, no. Are you currently positive for chlamyd— wait, no, this one shouldn’t be—”

    Oh”, Achilles purrs with a deadly grin, “I didn’t think you’d be this forwa—"

    “Shush. That one’s an accident.”

    Patroclus strikes the question out several times in his notebook, and scans his list once again. Sperm count, no, familial history of cardiovascular disease, no, unpaid mortgage, no— aha.

    “Thoughts on marriage?”

     

    Or: Patroclus insists he is unfit for a romantic relationship. Achilles disagrees. Patroclus isn’t sure he believes himself, either.

    Summary

    “Shane, I promise you’ll have fun!” Rose exclaimed, trying desperately to shove her friend through the door of a bar in The Village neighborhood of Montreal. Shane held on for dear life, clutching the doorway.

    “Speed dating is a no,” he groaned.

    “No, no! This one is supposed to be fun! Specifically tailored for guys who are into sports! They’ll be hot!! There might even some other hockey guys!” she said in a sing song voice.

    Or, an AU where Shane and Ilya have both quit hockey before the draft and are regular people (not superstar athletes). Shane experiences speed dating with a few other alternate GCU main characters…But of course, Shane and Ilya will always find each other, in any universe.
