Summary
Falling in love is different for everyone, or so I’ve heard. Some people fall fast; for others, the fall is a slow tumble down into warm, waiting arms. Love doesn’t look the same for any two people. I’ve heard it described as a dance, a blazing fire, and even a battlefield. But for me, love is none of these things. I fell in love with Jaime Reyes’ voice, and for me, love is a song.

Summary
If Blue catches you, you're good as dead.
Hope Flash comes to save you, dressed in red.
Purple was the color of the Tornado Twins
Til hope was lost and the Reach claimed the win.
Resistance flags burned white through the ash,
Everyone hoping the mode could be crashed.
But plasma cannon blasts turned flesh to black
And inhibitor collars got harder to hack.
Long live the heroes of the next generation:
Kid Flash in yellow; Impulse in carnation.
Only one chance to wipe the timeline clean
And return a ruined world to its original state of green. -

Baby, we built this house of memories.
Take my picture now.
Shake it til you see it.

Promise me a place
In your house of memories.Series

Summary
Ford is not the foremost expert on human attraction. Bill has questions, and while Ford is overwhelmed and answers them to the best of his ability, Bill would prefer a demonstration.
Alternately titled: Billford JOI

Summary
The gloves are soft, butter-smooth against his six fingers, hugging each joint like they were made from a mold of his hands. Ford flexes his six fingers slowly, watching the leather crease and fold in the mirror. They fit perfectly—disturbingly so. Bill must have traced his hands while he slept, or stolen measurements somehow. The thought sends an unexpected flutter through his chest.

Summary
Trying to post all the artwork/comics of my AU in one place- both the story comics from tumblr and the smutty comics from bluesky.
When Bill steals a Time Wish and undoes his destruction of Euclydia, the Axolotl enlists Ford's help, sending him undercover to the Second Dimension to find his ex-muse and bring him back (and definitely not fall in love with him again. Certainly not).Bookmarked by PaintingWithDarkness

Summary
Lord, save me. My drug is my baby, I’ll be usin’ for the rest of my life.
Ford thinks he can outrun the predators that stalk him in the night, however, he's glad to know he's not the only one who loves a good chase.

Summary
Ford can't sleep — not after what Bill did to him. Not after the tape. Not after the words that won't leave his head.
"YOU'RE MY PROPERTY."
He's exhausted and still too afraid to send the postcard he wrote days ago. But when he blinks too long — just for a second — he wakes up to something far worse than a nightmare.
Bill never left. And tonight, he wants to remind Ford who he belongs to.
