Summary
Max Verstappen to Mercedes? The paddock is buzzing. The media’s in meltdown.
Dr. Anastasia “Ana” Wolff, Mercedes’ notoriously brilliant, emotionally unavailable lead systems engineer and Toto Wolff’s eldest daughter, is not handling it well. Because Max isn’t just a potential signing, he’s the man she’s been sleeping with in secret for nearly a decade.
And if the rumours are true, and Max Verstappen really is joining Mercedes, then Ana’s carefully compartmentalised world is about to explode.

Summary
His tattoo taunts me, peeking out over his collar at the faithful kneeling in the pews. I’m too nearsighted to make out the design clearly, but I imagine that my glasses would do little to make sense of the half-inch blob of ink that peeks out over his collar.
It looks like a cupid or a rose or the head of a swallow, something soft and round and perfect for sinking my teeth into.
I want to crawl into his lap and run the tip of my tongue over the marked skin. I want to bite it, to color its greyscale with my kiss.

Summary
His hand returned to her face, cupping her cheek. She flinched, but he didn’t pull away.
“Yeah, y’see now? I ain’t your enemy. I’m your savior.”
And that, somehow, made her stomach turn more than the blood or the claws ever did.
Because he believed it.
And he wanted her to believe it too. -

Summary
AU from the end of Season 2, Episode 12 "Better Angels". Inspired by Hozier's song Arsonist's Lullabye.
She saw something, then. The look of a man who’d seen and done too much, who had backed himself into such a dark corner of his mind that he'd forgotten the light switch was in his own hand. “I’ve done too much, hurt too many of-”
“So, what?” She took a step forward. “You’re just gonna roll over and let the groaners get you and hope that sacrifice means something other than devastation for those people up there?”
In which Rick never stabbed Shane, a new arrival manages to warn them of the herd before they reach the farm, and Shane learns the metaphorical lightbulb in your mind goes both ways, not just off.

Theirs is not a simple story.
Or perhaps, it is the simplest story in the world. It really is a matter of perspective.

An almost (not quite) fairy tale in which Dani and Pelle each are born, live, and follow the paths they believed they should. What comes before that fated Midsommar, during it, and perhaps most important of all: the messy, glorious together ever after.

Summary
"... it would inevitably become a problem, because she was an immovable object, and Billy Hargrove was an unstoppable force. Their clash could only end in mayhem."
Billy Hargrove moves to the cultural wasteland of Hawkins, Indiana, and it is so majorly shitty. No good music, no good pussy, and no-good King Steve fucking Harrington running the show. Everything sucks, and then he encounters Mandy Mueller, a miserable, stuck-up bitch with secrets aplenty, who ends up being a lot more fun than she lets on.
Mandy Mueller wants to be left alone, but everyone in Hawkins is so obsessed with her it's disgusting. Behind a veneer of teenage cattiness and disinterest, she manages to hold herself at a safe distance from her peers and hide all the things that make her certifiably weird. That is, until Billy Hargrove moves to town and takes an interest in her. Ugh. What a life-ruining loser.
*Third-person narrative with changing character povs. Set mid/after season 2. Still somehow mostly canon-compliant. Most of this story was written before s3&4 so idek. Most characters in s1&2 will show up alongside some nameless background and side characters from other seasons :)

Summary
⊱ Born at the height of Targaryan decadence, Aemma Velaryon, the eldest of her siblings, is the only one who can boast of being the trueborn child of Ser Laenor Velaryon. Unfortunately, blood has no impact on gender or steadfast traditions. In an attempt to learn from her father's mistakes, Rhaenyra Targaryen betroths Aemma to her detested uncle, Aegon, seeking to navigate the political sphere of Westeros despite being woefully underprepared. Personally, all Aemma wishes to do is read with Aemond, play with Helaena, and watch the stars at night. Yet that is no cause for concern. Life will change her soon enough.
(Or: the Velaryons got royally fucked over and it barely gets addressed in canon, the fanfic.)
