The Earl Who Ruined Me & The Lady that Seized Me by TheOtherHalfoftheRibbon
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas

Summary
Dearest Gentle Reader,
Every season arrives with its predictable parade of hopeful young ladies, watchful mothers, and ambitious fathers. Diamonds sparkle, reputations tremble, and marriages are arranged with all the delicacy of a chess match played in silk gloves.
This year, however, society has been gifted a most curious development.
Miss Gwyneth B. Vanserra, the carefully guarded daughter of the formidable Duke Eris Vanserra, has at last stepped into the marriage mart. Beautiful, composed, and trained to perfection, the young lady appears precisely the sort destined for a respectable and advantageous match.
Yet where such perfection appears, complication often follows.
For it seems Earl Azriel Singer, a gentleman whose reputation for danger and rakishness precedes him in every drawing room, has taken an interest in the duke’s daughter. Those familiar with the Earl know him to be many things: charming when he chooses, quiet when he prefers, and entirely too intriguing for polite society’s comfort.
One must therefore wonder, dear reader, whether this unexpected attention will produce a suitable alliance…or a scandal the ton will not soon forget.Yours truly,

Summary
"I want to be there now," Bucky continues, his gaze burning into her profile. "If you’ll let me."
Running her tongue along her teeth, Wanda wipes her fingers hard against the skin beneath her eyes. They come back wet. She looks up at the clear blue sky and runs her hand down the line of her tightening throat. "I don’t need any help."
"I know," he says. His gaze remains set on her profile. "Maybe I need help."
Smiling a small, incredulous smile, she shakes her head and still doesn’t look at him. "I don’t know how to help anyone."
He chuckles. "You think I do?"
Wanda looks at him, her smile widening. Brushing her hair behind her ear, she bites on her bottom lip and looks out to her lake. Even that lacks the answers she seeks.
"Maybe we can learn together," he says, his gaze drops away from her profile for only a moment. Wanda doesn’t look at him despite wanting to. His expression is too hopeful, his heart beating too rapidly. "No pressure, of course."
—
After the events of Westview, Wanda’s content to isolate herself away from the rest of the world in Sokovia. Unfortunately for her, Bucky has other plans.

a taekook canon au where jungkook knows love only in the form of kim taehyung, annoyingly beautiful, dangerously affectionate
and tragically straight. (or??)
