Marks, by TheExplodingPen

There, on the small of Chuck’s back, is a tattoo. And not just any tattoo, no. He’s gone and gotten himself a Gipsy Danger tramp stamp, complete with Raleigh fucking Becket’s name, nice and neat, right underneath it. For the next sixteen weeks, Chuck’s nickname is Becket’s Bitch. He doesn’t mind as much as he knows he should.

Adult, Chuck lives!AU. This is fun and sizzling hot.

“Come as you are, as you were, as I want you to be.” These boys will never not give me ALL the feels. Especially when vidded so beautifully. Uses some outside sources. Music: Come As You Are, by Civil Twilight.

This is originally my Natasha song, but oh, it definitely also works for Peggy Carter – and this vid is awesome! Music: The Bullpen by Dessa.

Mutually satisfying weirdness, by sirona

The little gold link is nearly inconspicuous, at least visually – ever since Bucky had felt it click into place on his hand, his whole being had seemed to relax, a knot that had been pulled so tight as to warp the thread loosening just slightly, to lay comfortably in place.

Adult, first time, hints of D/s. Bucky decides he needs to be married, to belong – to Steve. He just neglects to tell him that. Intense and gorgeous.

I love vids with voice-overs, and this one uses them beautifully to illustrate the complicated relationship of Mal and Inara. Music by OneRepublic.

Gen, as much as it’s possible with Bucky and Steve. “But you will remember me.” Brilliant, angst-packed character study. Music by Fall Out Boy.

Four Times Inara Could’ve Had Mal On His Knees But Didn’t, and The One Time She Did, by MaeveBran

Mal was grateful that Inara was not a sadistic woman.

Teen, pre-Serenity. Bittersweet (appropriate for this pairing) five things fic, great Mal POV.
