Summary
He is not her son. She has no right to pretend he is. He is a prince, and she is a lowly nursemaid. She has no right to call herself his mother; no right to keep his history secret from him; no right to choose for him an ordinary, human life when his destiny is to be so much more.
No right – and she does it anyway.
(She had a story. She had a heart. She liked pink lemonade).

Summary
Maybe card games and magic can't solve everything. Maybe, even with the Puzzle gone, there are still pieces left to pick up.
The Spirit was cruel, vindictive, and selfish, but Ryou still misses the voice that kept him company.
Malik was definitely a worse person before Battle City, but life was easier.
Find someone whose empty spaces fit your broken bones. Love isn't a cure, but it certainly doesn't hurt.

Summary
The house outside of town is haunted - but Malik is too, so nothing he finds in there could be much of a threat. Not even the pretty ghost boy.
Or, the non-supernatural version: Bakura Ryou is a recluse, and Malik Ishtar is a petty criminal with a crush.

Summary
Ryou's used to cold, lonely birthdays. This isn't one of them.

Summary
They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness.
But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.

Summary
Everything cycles back around into powers, his new powers. Powers that, by the feel of it, Billy’s really only scratched the surface of. But powers that he thinks could really do some actual good, on the right team. Assuming he doesn’t blow anything up with his mind by then.

Summary
He's never been in this space before: broad daylight, his cheek throbbing, clothing dirty from the street, and at the same time floating, skin thrumming like he's using magic; hopelessly, helplessly happy. In which Billy Kaplan, against all expectations and documented statistics, has a boyfriend.

Summary
The castle in the sky floats there, evermore, evermore, eternal and perfect and unattainable.
The swords fill her body one by one and Anthy suffers, as she always has. The pain is familiar. The pain is boring.
Akio hacks at the door with another useless sword and as she sighs, the air comes whooshing out a thousand punctures in her body.
The castle remains. Anthy remains. The new school year starts.
