    Summary

    “Will you and Nicky pose for me? For my senior art show? I’ve been struggling to find a theme and you just said exactly what I want to showcase–-how love is beautiful, no matter what form it takes. Intimacy and love don’t happen like the movies. It’s quiet moments, it’s the little touches. It’s loving someone for exactly who they are. I want them to see that.”
    ----
    Nile is an art student, finding her way both personally and artistically. Fortunately, she meets Joe and Nicky, who not only help her find her voice as an artist but show her that love can take all forms.

    Summary

    So, don’t you stand there like you’re God’s gift to omegas and try to even so much as imply that my husband and I can’t possibly have a fulfilling relationship without an alpha to “take care of us.” We are more than happily bonded and I can only pray that there’s not a single person out there who’ll bring you even half the joy I feel at this mark on my neck because you absolutely do not deserve it.

    Summary

    Joe has been back home for less than a week when he sees Nicky in the cereal aisle of the local supermarket.

    Nicky, who he hasn’t heard from in six months.

    Nicky, who told Joe between lingering kisses that he’d call when he came to port, as he’s done every time he’s set off for the last ten years, so they could see each other again.

    Nicky, who Joe’s been irretrievably in love with since he was seventeen.

    Nicky who is leaning on a cane clutched in his right hand.

    Summary

    ‘So, you’re Nicky, I take it? I’m Joe.’
    ‘Sorry, I don’t speak English,’ Nicky says. It’s about the only sentence he knows in English, a dubious badge of honour he nevertheless wears with pride. Or rather, he did until about five minutes ago, when Andy said there was someone she wanted him to meet. In English.
    --
    Modern AU with language barriers: Joe speaks Dutch, English, and Arabic; Nicky speaks Italian, Spanish, and German. Andy didn't know that when she introduced them, but it doesn't really matter.

    As the poets say, love finds a way.

    Summary

    Joe is glad that the breakfast only consists of eggs because he can eat it using only his left hand, while he doesn’t let go of Nicky's. Joe insists on doing the dishes while Nicky goes to take a shower. He can hear him singing from the bathroom and he instinctively smiles. He likes hearing Nicky happy.
    Neither he nor Nicky are particularly religious, but that morning Joe finds himself closing his eyes and silently praying to a nameless God.
    Please, please, let this be the day. Let it be our new beginning.

    ~~~

    Joe and Nicky are ready to add a new member to their family.

    Standing there, head tilted inquisitively towards him with a gentle smile is the most beautiful man he’s ever seen. He’s as tall as Joe himself with longish dark hair and stunning eyes the colour of the Italian Rivera. It looks like St. John’s Ambulance service hired a model for their uniform.

    “Mr. Al-Kaysani?”

    “Baba?”

    Professor Yusuf Al-Kaysani meets a beautiful paramedic and finds more than he could have dreamed.

    Summary

    It was the Friday morning of the semester's first week, and Tamara was glad that this seminar was her only Friday class. Everybody was buzzing with exitement, the professor for this seminar would only be at the university for this semester.

    OR

    Tamara was pretty sure that this would be her favourite class this semester.

    Chapter 2: Here's the thing: there are only two possible explanations for these comments:

    1. He's really fucking good at pulling an elaborate prank, keeping it as consistent as can be (á la the Cospiracy Board meme)
    2. He's immortal

    Summary

    “I’m so so sorry. I didn’t mean to lead you on. We… we can’t exactly ‘see where this goes’.”

    He stared back at him, half of his mind waiting for the ground to swallow him up. “Let me guess. Married?”

    His expression softened as he shook his head, a genuine look of guilt crossing his face.

    Oh fuck. Not again. “Straight?” His voice came out in a croak as he asked.

    He didn’t move his head this time but the ‘no’ felt unspoken. He was ready to hear he was just plain not interested.

    “I… I’m a priest.”

    Summary

    Come down slowly, Joe thinks hysterically as he descends the ladder right into the arms of this man who, very unfortunately, smells incredibly good, just a hint of sandalwood on his skin, and feels incredibly firm and comforting against Joe as he makes sure the ladder doesn’t break while Joe’s still on it. Come down slowly, he thinks, and imagines, against his better judgment, coming down slowly next to this man in bed.

    If only his opinions on literature weren’t so wrong.

    (In which Joe is accidentally seduced into happiness by Schrödinger's hipster.)
