Summary
Ten years.
Ten years of "this is the last time," of loathing that looks suspiciously like foreplay, of Hermione Granger insisting to anyone who'll listen that she and Draco Malfoy are just coworkers.
Draco knows that it will *never* be the last time, that their bickering *is* foreplay, and that they are far more than coworkers—and he's done waiting for her to catch up. Two weeks in Mexico seems like the perfect place to start applying some pressure.

Summary
He remembered… he remembered falling. Inky darkness surrounded him. A gentle caress from feminine fingers, whispering in his ear that he was safe now. A tug on his core. He remembered a hand, tattooed and scarred like his own, reaching out and grabbing his wrist gently. It pulled him along, out of the cold comfort of the nothingness. He hadn't realized it had been cold.

Summary
Guys, it's happening. I’m so excited to finally say this: we’re getting a proper SandRay series. Not a one-shot, not a quick emotional hit. A full-on, long, slow descent into their chaos. And when I say long, I mean long. Longer than anything I’ve written before. Because it’s SandRay, and they deserve all the pages and all the drama. This one is inspired by "Want Me," by Baby Queen. So yeah, think intense, messy, unrequited, obsessive feelings that spiral out of control. You already know we’re not coming out of this unscathed.
Any guesses where this is going? Hop in and find out;)Note: More tags will be added as we progress into the story.

Illithid Anatomy: Comparative Analysis of Pre- and Post-Ceremorphosis by elsenova

Summary
I wanted it to be published on ResearchGate, but they declined, so I made an account on AO3. Just kidding, it’s a fantasy story.
To find a decent thrall in a burning nautiloid was somewhat... troublesome, but the Emperor was not one to give up. Not even when the only option left was, objectively, a disaster.
Infected with an alien larva that will overwrite her body, Talula — a wizard whose spellcasting has grown rusty — has only days, a kleptomaniacal companion, and her analytical mind to find a cure. A shame that each of her well-considered decisions breeds a worse emergency.

Summary
Jon Snow stared at the sword: a spine flayed of its flesh, spiked high upon the hall’s weeping stone. The ripples of Valyrian steel ran leaden and sullen under the torch fire. The sword no longer belonged to the North, no more than his father, Eddard Stark, belonged to the North. The Bolton boy whispered in his ear: “If you want your father's sword, you must learn to grow claws.”
After the Battle of the Trident, Rhaegar Targaryen ascended the Iron Throne. To protect the child found in the ruins of the Tower of Joy, he forced his hostage Ned Stark to declare to the world that the child was a bastard of House Stark. That child was the son of Lyanna and the new king, another legitimate heir of the Iron Throne.

Summary
They’re all a little broken when they find each other.
Izuku has spent years learning how to make himself small. To survive the bullying, the grief, the hands that hurt instead of help. Katsuki has spent just as long pretending he isn’t terrified of losing the people who matter. Shoto is still figuring out what safety feels like. Mina hides her own insecurity behind a smile that’s starting to crack.
None of them are fine. Not really. But somehow, when they’re together, breathing gets easier.
This is a story about four kids who have every reason to shut the world out and choose each other instead. About the slow, stubborn work of healing. The nightmares, the panic, the guilt, the shame. The days when getting out of bed is a victory. About found family that grows in the spaces left behind by the people who failed them. About adults who learn to show up, classmates who learn to listen, and love that doesn’t demand perfection.
They’re not okay. Not yet. But they’re trying. Together.

Summary
“Sensei,” Kai started, and all of them froze. Cole took a quick picture of the symbols with his phone before turning to stare at his friend. He hadn’t referred to Wu as Sensei since they found out about Kai’s history. “You said that the one possessing Lloyd is your first student.” He turned a pointed glare to Wu. “Tell us about our enemy.”
Wu held Kai’s gaze as the rest of them turned to him.
“C’mon, Sensei,” Cole said. “Kai’s right. We know nothing about the ghost that just kicked all our asses.”
Wu took a breath. “Morro was my student decades ago,” he started. “When I was younger, more… foolish. Less careful. He is the Master of Wind, and he’s tenacious. He is… my greatest regret.”
Cole’s eyes widened. “How so?”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The ghost of Sensei Wu's past returns with a goal and a mission. Find the Realm Crystal, release the Preeminent on the sixteen realms, save himself from whatever else she could do to him. Maybe steal the Green Ninja's power along the way. He never expected it to go so far off the rails.

Summary
Lucifer is a forensic doctor – his relationship with his wife is unhappy. Due to the nature of his work at the police station in 1800s New Orleans – a city rife with murders – and the lack of emotional support and fear of endangering their daughter Charlie, the couple divorced.
The police department has been baffled for days by a killer whose actions are erratic, his victims disappear without a trace, and then one day he will "decorate" the corpse in a horrifyingly "beautiful" way. Lucifer the found a human-sized statue - a corpse in front of his house.

Lucifer moved into the house of someone the police station had told him to go to – Alastor's house.
Alastor enthusiastically and warmly welcomed Lucifer, but Lucifer had no idea that this was the place where the man he had been looking for days was staying. -
