Summary
“Nigella is gone.”
The words hit you hard in your chest as you try to get your bearings. You’re in the atrium of a large house. The water is softly burbling in the fountain. And Nigella is gone.
How now, you secret, black, and midnight

Summary
LerxstInSpace's summary:
It's a long story but here's the quick and dirty version: they have to convince pretty much the whole-ass Kamurocho criminal underworld they're in love and other than two very specific people nobody, absolutely fucking nobody, can know it’s just a bit till the job is done.
You want the long version, including the part where this whole dumb stunt was Majima’s idea? Kiryu kind of insists that it be made real nice and clear that this was, in fact, Majima’s stupid idea and he just went along with it because he didn’t know what the hell else to try. Which, y’know. Fair enough.
[In which Majima and Kiryu pretend to be a Thing for family business reasons. With these two, this is easier said than done.]

Summary
You find yourself looking at a door.
It looks like an ordinary door, but you’re somehow certain that it isn’t.
In theory, you could open the door…but something warns you off.
You might not survive, if you pass through that door. You might no longer be you.

Summary
Audio Length: 66:20:22.
A collaborative podfic of Sansûkh by determamfidd.
The battle was over, and Thorin Oakenshield awoke, naked and shivering, in the Halls of his Ancestors.
The novelty of being dead fades quickly, and watching over his companions soon fills him with grief and guilt. Oddly, a faint flicker of hope arises in the form of his youngest kinsman, a Dwarf of Durin's line with bright red hair.
(Follows the story of the War of the Ring).
(Bagginshield, Gimli/Legolas) In which recovery takes time, the dead members of the Company take to watching Gimli as though he’s a soap opera, the living struggle with being left behind, Legolas is confused, Khuzdul is abused, and Thorin is four feet and ten inches of guilt and anger.

Summary
You’re worldbuilding, and you need a legal system.
Or more accurately (probably), you’re writing a fic that may not be about law, but which might be law-adjacent. Something like casefic, or maybe your characters are going through a separation, or pretty much anything involving deep political intrigue. And you want to make sure your fic hits that critical suspension of disbelief threshold, and you want some nice, tasty details to throw in to make your readers salivate.
This is a guide on how to do that.

Summary
Dissertation on gender in omegaverse fanfiction, written for my Masters degree in English Language and Linguistics. An analysis of masculine and feminine descriptors of characters in four omegaverse texts (see ‘Inspired by’ section), and discussion of the representation of gender in the omegaverse in the context of other kinds of m/m fanfiction, as well as other forms of erotic fiction. Winner of the 2022 Christian Kay and Michael Samuels Prize for Outstanding MSc Research in English Language & Linguistics at the University of Glasgow. This is an actual dissertation, I'm not doing some elaborate meta thing here.
