Fanwork Fridays are back: All about the UST.  
Welcome back to fanwork Fridays! This week we are all about the UST. We're also switching it up a bit and inviting you to bring the following:

(1)  Any and all fic/fanwork recs featuring assassins + UST. It's always much appreciated when you can drop us a line and tell us why you love that particular work. Remember: sharing is caring. :)

(2)  Any comment fic (or new fic linked here via comment) featuring assassins + UST. It's a little bit like incorporating the informal/impromptu kissing!fic meme but with a different topic. So if inspiration strikes, we'd love for you to share.

(3)  Meta/thoughts regarding the aforementioned assassins + UST. Got something to say on this topic? Let us know! Start a discussion with your fellow bar patrons (Said discussions are guaranteed to lead to more thoughts and feels and fic 99.9% of the time. They've done studies.)

#2 and 3 came out of our suggestion post last week, so we're going to experiement with that and see if it works. So go forth! Have fun! And congratulations on making it through another week.  <3

I think one of the hardest things to do with UST is play it understated and close to the vest. If you can just get those occasional glimmers of what's going on under the surface, they are infinitely more powerful and pack quite a (gorgeous) wallop. Such are the fics below, by [livejournal.com profile] rollingplains all of which I have an absurdly intense admiration for, especially the dialogue (which for my money is flawless):
