Summary
Bookstore AU. At Survey Books, 27 year old Marco Bodt is lucky enough to be friends with everyone he works with, until grade-A jerk Jean Kirchstein transfers from another store, and in spite of his bad attitude, Marco can’t seem to help but fall for him. Too bad Jean is oblivious and/or just plain stubborn, and everyone else thinks this is Marco’s worst idea ever. But in retail, you end up spending a lot of time with your coworkers regardless of what you want, and Marco will do his best to make every interaction with Jean count until they get somewhere. Or at least until Jean gets less awful.

“No!” if anything, John looked even more panicked. “That’s not it at all. I’ve been having sex with him and his wife. For a few weeks now. And it’s great, they’re both great, but I don’t want to ruin things by getting them cards and talking about feelings. But if I don’t get them cards, will that ruin things by making them feel unloved? Do you even have cards for something like this?”
“We have cards for every occasion,” Aaron said, with far more confidence than he felt.

Summary
Yuusuke leaned over and gently pushed Makoto’s glasses up. For one breathless moment Makoto thought Yuusuke was going to kiss him, right there at the back of Shimada Mart, where anybody could theoretically see them, even if the only living creature in sight right then was Ryuugazaki-san’s mean cat. In the past, Makoto would already be pulling away, talking about everything and nothing, but right now he just waited, not moving, not sure if he wanted Yuusuke to kiss him or not. Not sure what he would do if Yuusuke did.
Yuusuke smiled and stepped back, shoving his hands into his hoodie. “I’ll see you later, hey?”
Makoto could breathe again, but his pulse was pounding, and he wanted to say something, tell Yuusuke… He wasn’t sure exactly what. Something. Instead he just nodded. “Yeah, later.”

What if Makoto and Yuusuke actually did go on dates to see Karasuno play volleyball? -

Summary
The lines he had been rehearsing in his head were standard for retail workers. There was the “How can I help you?” line, and the more polite “What can I do for you?” one.
They were almost second nature by this point, and Keith should have been able to ask them without batting an eye. Unfortunately the lines got muddled somewhere on the road from his brain to his mouth, and ended up coming out as a strangled “How can I do you?”

"It was when he was five minutes away from locking up that the door opened, a gust of wind and rain breaking through the shop until the door closed. Wolfwood cursed, closing his eyes and wondering why people decided last minute to browse fucking books of all things. He was about to tell the customer that they were actually closing but stopped when he realised who entered.
Vash pulled his red hoodie down, shaking his head and trying to fluff up his wet hair. He looked like he was going to shake the rain off like a damn dog, but then remembered he was in a bookshop and stopped, grinning sheepishly at the unimpressed clerk.
“Hey, Nick!” He greeted with a wave of his prosthetic, bounding over to the counter where Wolfwood stood. His glasses fogged and he frowned, before taking them off and giving them a wipe."
or
Retail AU where Vash works in a clothing shop across from Wolfwood's bookstore, and Wolfwood, contrary to belief, is a sappy romantic.

This is what he’d been warned about for so many years, but he had been safe for so long. What had changed tonight? His eyes dart around the alleyway he had been shoved into like a cornered animal, though he supposes that’s what he is. And then the hot air on his neck is gone, but he doesn’t allow himself to breathe yet. If this is what he thinks it is, he’s nowhere near the clear.
“Prime, you’re so scared, aren’t you, little one?”
Or:
Tommy's just a humble baker at Nik's bakery, but after taking a late shift one night, he's attacked on his way home. Luckily, he wasn't completely alone.

Summary
“Oh, that’s He Xuan. He’s a regular.”
They’re on their break. Shi Qingxuan sips his coke through a straw, a small bag of chips open in his lap. The break room had been so crowded, so they’re sitting in the bath section, tucked near the back where the cheapest tub options are displayed. Shi Qingxuan sits atop a faux-marble countertop, and Xie Lian is sinking relaxedly into the boxy bathtub. His phone is in front of his face, a twizzler dangling from his lips.
“At first, I thought he was gonna hit me for telling him we couldn’t do the refund.”
Xie Lian snorts, good-naturedly. “He Xuan is as harmless as a butterfly.” He bites off a piece of the twizzler, then takes the rest from his mouth, spinning it between his thumb and forefinger. “He’s just a little...eccentric.” Shi Qingxuan thinks that’s a charitable opinion, but he doesn’t say so. Xie Lian slides his phone into the pocket of the gaudy orange apron that’s a part of their uniforms. “Anyway, manager says we should give him refunds when he wants them. No matter what state he’s bringing things back in.”
“Why?” Shi Qingxuan asks, baffled.
Biting off another piece of candy, Xie Lian shrugs. “Maybe she’s got a soft spot for him, I dunno.”
