Summary
Enjolras swallowed. "I didn't know he had tattoos on his back."
"Yeah," said Joly, shrugging. "I mean, he lives with me and before about noon, he's allergic to shirts—"
"Why—" said Enjolras weakly.
"I always figured he had a bad shirt experience," Joly offered. "Shirts killed his family, or his first dog got hit by a truck full of shirts."
Enjolras shook his head. His face was a little flushed.
"Ooh, are you experiencing symptoms?" said Joly, brightening. "What's your pulse doing? Are you breathing normally? How do your glands feel?"
Inspired in part by tumblr user feferi's post here, specifically: "i am in love with the idea that enjolras is so baffled by his own emotions towards grantaire that he legitimately cannot tell if he has heartburn or stomach butterflies"
Modern AU. Joly is a gentleman, a scholar, a med student—and, when need be, a matchmaker. And oh, the need is definitely being.

Summary
“Peter,” May said, jabbing her index finger into the center of his chest. “Liv and I are getting married. That is the end of the story.”
“She is my archnemesis!” Peter said, throwing his hands up in the air.
“Well,” May said, turning away from him. “That’s just something you’ll both have to work on. I’m going to go do the laundry now.”
“ARCHNEMESIS,” Peter shouted at her retreating back.

Summary
Bilbo Baggins arrived home late one afternoon in the middle of the week and the entire west Farthing is still talking about it.
Poor Mister Baggins. He was doomed to be a nine-days wonder no matter what and is it any wonder after a year-long adventure? Even the Tooks haven’t the influence to hush that up, but Mad Baggins seems to have managed to silence every tongue in the Shire on that subject which would be awe-inspiring ...if not for the way he decided to go about it.
OR: That one where Middle Earth seems to be unclear about where baby Hobbits come from.

Alexander's not supposed to acknowledge the flicker of possibility they both felt when they met, just a few minutes after he and Angelica did, the way Eliza’s interest must have been obvious, even if Angelica never indicated she noticed.

Summary
Marinette is terrified, suddenly. She’s not like this. She’s not this kind of alpha, to get her head turned by any pretty pheromones she trips over. She’s not--she’s not disloyal, she’s not inconstant. Chat smells like moonlight, like the sudden shock of night air and the terrifying rush of leaping out into the empty dark, like deserted city sidewalks and unfamiliar corners: something midnight-metallic, something strange, something wild. Nothing like Adrien. Not a single note in common.
She’s not like this. She’s not like this.
He smells--
He smells--
“Ladybug,” Chat croaks, still staring at her.
He smells stray.

aka, the “If Marinette Had Stayed” version of “the luck I’ve had”.

because obviously the only solution to people thinking you're married is to be married. (note: no actual marriage happens at this time.)
