So your Soulmate's a Jerk by The_Dancing_Walrus for RedHead
Fandoms: The Flash (TV 2014)
11 Feb 2016

Summary
It was like an acid burn, for a moment everything felt normal and then it was like Barry's whole body was on fire. It was like the biggest shot of adrenaline, like he was suddenly way too aware of everything from the pain in his ribs to the smell of the front offices. He gasped at the same time Snart did, hand going up to his cheek which was still too hot and-
He turned, it felt like it took a lifetime, and Snart was on the floor staring up at him-
His whole hand had turned a red so dark it was almost black. A Lichtenberg figure, the analytical part of Barry’s brain supplied, Leonard’s Mark looked like a lightning burn.

Summary
So there Ed is, in this enormous room all decked out in ivory and gold, surrounded by one-percenters and inherited wealth and fucking caviar. And he sits under a canopy of twinkling crystals, and he plays his mood music, and the room slowly fills.
And the bride and groom are nowhere to be seen.
Ed’s starting to feel more and more like a member of the string quartet playing out the sinking of the fucking Titanic.
(Or: Ed's the harpist at a swanky wedding that's gone south. Stede's got his own problems. A one-night fastburn meet-cute: fluff, humour, eventual smut, and a truly obscene description of caviar)

Summary
Ed knows he’s probably a bit bug-eyed, and that his jaw’s dropped open. He’s also sweating even more than he was moments ago, for a reason entirely unrelated to his having spent the morning in the blazing sunshine weighed down by a rather ungodly amount of clothing. No, the reason he’s sweating now, the reason he’s staring and slack-jawed, is the fact that Stede is— Well, Stede is standing in the wardrobe doorway looking like something out of his wildest fucking dreams. Ed’s surprised his eyes haven’t fallen right out of his head.
“Christ alive, Stede,” he says, his voice cracking right in the middle of his words (God, what is he, sixteen again?). “Can’t you give a man a warning before you put on something like that?”
—
stede puts on one of ed’s crop tops; ed can’t keep it together (and honestly, can he be blamed for that?).

Summary
The second weird thing happens later that afternoon, when Ed wanders into the galley and finds the scents too much, too nauseating. His stomach churns when he’s back on the deck, leaning on the railing until the nausea passes.
Stede sidles up to him. “Hi, Ed! Good weather we’re having!”
“Yeah,” Ed replies, edging closer and sighing happily as the scent of floral soap drifts over to him. He wants to burrow into Stede’s side, where it’s safe and warm and—
Wait, why the fuck does he want safety and warmth? That urge, along with the nausea, can only mean one thing.
His heat’s setting in.
Fuck.

“Everyone goes for the face, you see,” Delia is telling Stede, her leg back up on the chair that’s inexplicably placed between them. “I’m an original. I wanted a memory of our—” Delia shoots Ed a look. “—time together.”
Delia shakes at her skirt. She holds Ed’s twittering gaze as it slides slowly across her thigh, baring a faded, and yet extremely accurate tattoo of—
“Holy shit,” Lucius is somehow hissing from behind Ed’s back, voice shaking, “is that a tattoo of Blackbeard’s dick?”

Summary
Through the crowd of swirling fabric, Stede spots what could very well be the most handsome man he's ever seen in his life. He's statuesque against the grand backdrop of the wall, tall and tanned skin, with a cropped beard and the gentle curvature of muscle prominent under the strong lines of his coat. His mask of choice is difficult to make out from this distance, but it's something close to canine, with thin, sharp slits for eyes, and then there's the matter of his hair—all curly and dark, with delicate, premature silver whispering at the temples, and much longer than anything Stede's accustomed to seeing amongst the upper crust. He has the sudden urge to pluck the ribbon holding the man's hair in a delicate ponytail free and run his hands through the ensuing waterfall.
Stede's cheeks go hot at the thought, and the effect is dizzying. He pulls at the cravat around his neck to loosen it, hoping for a miracle of breeze to cool him, and as he does—
The man looks back at him, and he's caught.

“I meant a kind of gathering,” Din allows, “Friends, family, that sort.”
“How about next weekend? I can see who’ll make it.”
“Sure,” Din says. “If you’d want.”
“I would want that,” Luke says, and he smiles so easily across the table at him, that Din forgets that there might be any logistical nightmares with such a proposition.
Namely, his boyfriend’s very famous family.

Summary
Seasoned pro cyclist Edward “Blackbeard” Teach is counting down the days to his retirement when his swansong at the Tour de France is thrown off-course by a starry-eyed newcomer. Can Stede Bonnet’s enthusiasm remind Ed why he loves cycling, and perhaps help him find some joy in his personal life too?
:::::
“This is my first Tour, but it’s also my last. I’m here by luck. It won’t happen again.”
“Hmm. I might have heard something along those lines.”
Ed has, in fact, heard a lot of it, mostly in Izzy’s outraged voice.
You know that twat hasn’t even raced a one-day Classic? No real road experience at all, just a handful of time trials. He’s a rower, for fuck’s sake, he’s not got the first idea how to handle himself in a group. He’s only here because his daddy owns the team. Totally unprofessional. Stupid fucking Stede Bonnet.
“So why are you here now, then?” he asks. “What did you do to get Fortune to smile on you so beautifully?”
“It’s a long story,” Stede replies.
“I’ve got all day. Come on, get your bike. We’ll go for a ride and you can tell me all about it.”- Language:
