Steve and Eddie AU where they meet in detention because they're both failing English and missed the hand in deadline for an assignment, cause neither of them had even started reading it.
They're studying Much Ado About Nothing and neither of them have actually read it, they start studying it together and they argue like Beatrice and Benedick constantly and their "getting together" heavily mirrors the play (it's been a long time since I read it so if I were ever actually to write the fic I'd need to do research 😂). I get the idea that they both probably struggle with focus when reading, but reading aloud helps Eddie to him and Steve start actually taking it in turns to essentially "run lines".
The story has an epilogue in which they're finally getting married after spending decades together and Eddie uses the "When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I would live till I were married" line in his vows.

Just finished watching “Much Ado About Nothing” (2011, Globe Theatre) and I knew it was objectively an excellent play, but I was not prepared to love it so much. The comedy is conveyed so well, both with body language and dialogue, and some of the lines are still running through my brain so I’m not forgetting them any time soon (I do love nothing in the world so well as you, is not that strange?/ Peace! I will stop your mouth/ I love you with so much of my heart that none is left to protest/ Thou and I are too wise to woo peaceably / I will live in thy heart, die in thy lap, and be buried in thy eyes. And moreover, I will go with thee to thy uncle’s).
Obviously, the only logical next step is to watch the David Tennant and Catherine Tate one (I have been waiting for this!).

First Lines from Last 10 Fics
@dairogo tagged me and I do love to show off my work, so here goes!
Rules: Share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written fewer than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway.
Of course, if more than the first line is warranted, I'm going to to up through the first paragraph. Starting with the 10th most recent:
From A Spark of Enduring Hope:
Anne's first instinct when she'd made a mess of things had always been to run.
From In Which Anne's Note Stuck to the Pail:
Muriel Stacy was a woman on a mission.
From Happy Fucking Birthday (rated M for smut, if the title wasn't a hint):
"Gil… Gil, wake up. We're back." Anne smiled softly as her husband blinked awake, his hand covering hers where it rested on his knee even before he'd fully returned to consciousness.
From Thou and I Are Too Wise to Woo Each Other Peaceably:
It had started—as many of Anne's Shakespeare-related woes did—with Romeo and Juliet.
From The Sweetness of a Storm:
Listening to the rain as she curled up on the porch swing was usually soothing to Riza. It was something she'd been doing since she was little. She'd picked up the rain-watching habit from her father, but lately, stormy weather seemed to make his aches—and his cough—worse.
From Echoes in Time:
Roy's last few hands had been legitimately terrible, but he couldn't keep the smirk off his face.
From Just Follow My Lead (Cheating and posting the first two paragraphs of this one but they're short!):
"So, are you ready?"
Riza looked up from the book she was reading. It was snowing heavily outside and had been for the last two days. They weren't going anywhere. Riza's father had been unwell for the last few days, and really, she had nobody to blame but herself for opening her mouth.
From Case Files Condensed:
Officer Fuery cleared his throat. "Detective Hawkeye, someone here to see you about the Mullen case."
From Piece By Smoldering Piece:
Heavy footsteps echoed behind Riza, and she sighed. She knew what was coming, but knowing that never made questions from Captain Hakuro any more palatable.
From By Softest Candlelight (also smut, for the unaware):
Of course it had to be like this.
Do I have 10 people to tag, you ask?
Why no, no I do not. If you see this and want to do it, by all means, go right ahead!

BENEDICK: And I pray thee now tell me, for which of my bad posts didst thou first fall in love with me?
BEATRICE: For them all together, which maintained so politic a state of evil that they will not admit any good post to intermingle with them. But for which of my good posts did you first suffer love for me?
BENEDICK: Suffer love! A good epithet. I do suffer love indeed, for I love thee against my will.
BEATRICE: In spite of your heart, I think. Alas, poor heart, if you spite it for my sake, I will spite it for yours, for I will never love that which my friend hates.
BENEDICK: Thou and I are too wise to woo peaceably.

Jude: For them all together, which maintained so politic a state of evil that they will not admit any good part to intermingle with them. But for which of my good parts did you first
suffer love for me?
Cardan: Suffer love! A good epithet! I do suffer love indeed, for I love thee against my will.

Hannibal Much Ado About Nothing AU when??
"thou and I are too wise to woo peaceably”
Much Ado: you wouldn’t think that Beatrice and Benedick, maybe the Shakespeare pairing that makes the best case for itself, would be constantly talking about wanting to kill and eat things or that every other metaphor would be cannibalism! YET CONSIDER
“I pray you, how many hath he killed and eaten in these wars? But how many hath he killed? For indeed I promised to eat all of his killing.” -Beatrice, literally the FIRST SCENE
“Is it possible disdain should die while she hath such meet food to feed it as Signior Benedick?” still Beatrice
"O God, that I were a man! I would eat his heart in the market-place.” -Beatrice
Benedick: Come, bid me do any thing for thee.
Beatrice: Kill Claudio.

“Thou and I are too wise to woo peaceably.”
~ Benedick, Much Ado About Nothing (Act V, scene ii)
For ‘X-Men: Character Dynamics Appreciation Week’
Day 1: Romance
The course of Rogue and Gambit’s relationship has never been easy. They’ve faced a myriad difficulties—out-of-control powers, villainous pasts, internal conflicts, and so much more. Yet, despite it all, they always come back to each other. They are stronger together. They complete each other. They find belonging and safety when they are together. <3
