  • “She’s running a hand, feather light, over his back when she finds the dimple, the white starburst of scarred skin just above the curve of his ass, half hidden by the sheet gathered there.

so let me tell you ‘bout the way he looks (ao3, WIP)

Better than selling out completely and working at the Starbucks down the block, which, Sobel tells them gleefully every chance he gets, doesn’t get nearly as much revenue as the tiny little business sandwiched between a secondhand book store and a walk in clinic. The guys he works with are decent, and, Joe excepted, actually pretty fun to spend time with.” Coffeeshop AU. (Winters/Nixon)

ground zero (tumblr)

your faith walks on broken glass (ao3)
