Izzy is so fucking gay, and it's obvious even in season 1. Even when he was attempting to bully and intimidate Lucius, it was taking everything in him to not make out with his cute face.

ahhh I have such a good idea for a secret reverse sugar baby modern AU. it's sprizzy in my head but I think you could substitute other Izzy ships with only minor changes to details.
So basically the premise is that Ed left and took with him half the income that was propping up Izzy's tight budget. now that Izzy has to cover rent and bills in full instead of just half, he is struggling financially. He really can’t afford to live, honestly. But he's a proud man so he tries to hide it. Tries to tough it out and make it work.
But Lucius (or whoever you fancy) notices and tries to help without making it obvious he is helping because Izzy probably won’t accept help, especially from Lucius, off all people.
Lucius, trying to be subtle, starts:
-timing his smoke breaks so he can run into Izzy and annoy Izzy into ‘stealing’ the cigarette right out of Lucius’s mouth. because Izzy won’t ask to bum one, and helping izzy hands avoid nicotine withdrawal is basically a public service. Lucius is a hero for that.
-“ugh, I told them no pickles! Here, eat this stupid sandwich, I don’t want it anymore, I loathe pickles!” (Lucius likes pickles just fine) or getting ‘just sooooo full’ from drinking elaborate iced coffees that he can’t possibly finish more than half of his lunch and he doesn’t want to waste food but he’s going out straight after work and won’t be able to bring it home to put in the fridge for tomorrow and really you may as well eat it, Izzy, or it’s just going to sit in the trash bin stinking up the whole place.
-asking Izzy to walk him to the tube station after work ‘for safety’ but it’s really so Lucius can swipe an extra ride for Izzy on his transit card. sometimes when it’s cold and miserable enough to make Izzy ache Lucius will opt for cab or rideshare instead as soon as they hit the street, insisting it will be cheaper to split the ride. always drops Izzy off first, conveniently forgetting to split the fare
-buying izzy a cozy cashmere scarf and claiming that it was Buy One Get One Free when Lucius was scarf shopping for himself, but he didn’t see any other colors/patterns he liked and this one just screamed Izzy Hands. (And maybe a knit cap that Lucius claims he stole from the lost and found because it coordinates with the scarf so well)
-begging Izzy to come over and ‘fix’ something ‘broken’ at his place, conveniently near dinner time, just so Izzy can spend a few hours somewhere where the heat and lights aren’t turned way down low to save on utilities. Somewhere warm and bright, where the WiFi service hasn’t been turned off because of all the past due bills.
-constantly starting bets that Izzy can win. This backfires when Izzy starts to feel bad about taking Lucius’ money because he thinks Lucius is a typical starving artist type. Not knowing that Lucius makes $$$$ on furry art commissions and just doesn’t tell anyone about it because his friends, much as he loves them, have zero moderation and would cajole Lucius into partying all his savings away.
And all the while he is being sneakily generous, Lucius is trying to figure out how to trick Izzy into letting Lucius buy him a new winter wardrobe, treat him to lunch every day, and buy back the motorcycle Izzy had to pawn to pay off some debts Ed left when he blew town.
the men that you are...
Spriggyhands singer au as That Image... yea....... im unwell
You know that tumblr post that's like "imagine the hero gets really hurt and the only person they can think to go to is the villain, who gets really quiet and says, "who hurt you?".
I need that with Lucius and Izzy.

Izzy steps close to Lucius, pushing into his personal space. “I don’t care who signs your fucking paychecks. This is my set, so while you’re on it, you obey my orders. If you can’t do that, you can get the fuck out. Do you fucking understand me?”
Lucius blinks at him, ignoring his own impulse to flirt, given how close to him Izzy is standing. “Okay.” Easiest to just tell him what he wants to hear, probably.
“Good.” Izzy curls his lip at Lucius. “Now fuck off.”
Lucius grins at him. Does Izzy know what he’s doing, standing so close and looking so worked up? Lucius has to bite back a reply about just what “fucking off” might entail.
Blackbeard Studios is making its first film. Lucius is personal assistant to co-director Stede Bonnet, and Izzy is assistant director to co-director Edward Teach.
Lucius isn't really looking for a relationship, but he can't pass up the chance to meet up with a new sub. He gets a lot more than he bargained for.
