Black Swan by keythealien
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)

Summary
Hitoshi was one of those people that always knew his destiny from the moment he could perceive it. From the second he saw his first heart-racing news broadcast of Heroes saving the day, he knew that was what he was meant to do.
The first day of class, he witnessed Aizawa turn into an eldritch horror to scare the shit out of his classmates, and Hitoshi had approvingly thought the man was a national treasure that he would die for.
Geisha? Himeji Castle? Kokinshū?
No.
Sensei.
The svelte, acrobatic figure flipping elegantly through the air with circling, blazing tendrils looping around and around and around behind his back like wings earned him his name. Shouta thought he resembled a phoenix more, but he supposed that didn’t fit Shinsou’s aesthetic.
Although, both birds were considered immortal. Perhaps it was good luck.
Shouta held a stony mask in place so he wouldn’t grimace or shy away when Shinsou smiled like a star and chuckled quietly.
He could hear the swans carrying on in the nearby pond and felt the kinship. Maybe some of them were black, too.
There was nothing like a conniving beta’s intermeddling.

Summary
“We had a private ceremony in the garden, attended only by the bees, the horses, and the stray dog that had turned up one day a few months ago and made the place his home.

Summary
MacCallum Ranch is nestled into the mountains on the Colorado-Wyoming border. After two decades of dedicated work, first as ranch hands and now as a foreman and a farrier, Roan and Parker have decided to retire. The MacCallums are looking to employ some capable, disciplined, able-bodied men to set up home in their ranch house, to help them run their family business, so that they can settle into a slower lifestyle after they almost lost each other.
This is a collaborative cowboy and ranch universe between haunter_ielle and canniclown!!!! We started writing this because we watched Brokeback Mountain and wanted a universe where the two ranchers that fell in love when they met herding sheep in the mountains never separated again. We love cowboys and we love when they kiss on the mouth!!!!

The name falls off the man’s lips, hushed and breathless, and it stirs an answering feeling in Morpheus’ chest, something tugging deep behind the cage of his ribs, an incomprehensible yearning to be this man’s Dream.
"I fear you mistake me for another,” he says, at last.
*
Or, retired Morpheus tries to navigate human life without the foundation of his memories, and a chance encounter is the catalyst he needs to find himself.

Summary
Castiel comes back, human, and suddenly the world feels different. Dean calls him Castiel at first for fun, to mask the weight of everything, but it doesn’t stay a joke. With every repetition, it becomes something else—tender, binding.
OR
A story about finding each other, quiet mornings, stumbling into domesticity, farmer’s markets, paint stains and coffee rings, maybe one last case, and the raw intimacy of learning each other without walls. In small rituals, they discover what it means to live without blood and fear, and to love without it.Or
A quiet love story about humanity, healing, and the way a name can mean everything.or
they get together, kiss, and have filthy sex, too.--
"The first time Dean says his full name, it startles him, deep, hits him like a thunderbolt. His eyes widen before he can stop it, and the word strokes something ancient in him, as old as the last wisps of his grace holding his skin together, and yet, embarrassingly human. It lands somewhere deep in his chest, somewhere to the top of his lungs, igniting him like a dropped match in dry grass. And something—heat or want maybe—flickers to life.
Dean doesn't look away. Then he says it again, slower." -

Summary
When Kakashi Hatake finally wrangled his way out of the Hokage’s office, he expected freedom. No paperwork. No councils. No schedules. Just naps, novels, and the quiet life he’d been dreaming of.
The price? A symbolic union with his successor.
Apparently, Konoha looks more “stable” if the Sixth Hokage abdicates not only with a successor… but with a wife. And since the Seventh is none other than Uzumaki Naruto—his former student, his comrade, his loudest headache—the council insists on binding them together in name, if not in love.
Naruto, naturally, thinks it’s simple. “Easy deal. You get retirement, I get the hat. Don’t overthink it, Kakashi-sensei.”So they marry. Not in love. Not pretending otherwise. Just Hokage and ex-Hokage, sensei and student, comrades who’ve fought side by side—now bound by a vow neither of them asked for.
It should’ve been easy. Until, quietly, it isn’t.
