Summary
Harrow kept her eyes on the horizon. "Do I disappoint you, honored wife?"
Gideon was starting to think that 'honored wife' was a placeholder for 'fucking asshole' or something similar. "Not at all. I think more girls should aspire to be gremlins when they grow up."
[God has been absent for centuries and BoE conquers the Houses. To solidify their claim, they have the daughter of Commander Wake marry one of the House officials.]

Summary
It was like watching a puppeteer pull all of Harrow’s strings simultaneously, Gideon thought; the little hagette stood straighter, though not taller- she was still five foot nothing, more furious purse dog than shaking purse dog- but she nodded firmly, once, before turning to Cam.
"Very well,” she said. “Marry me, Camilla.”
A vicious spit-take on Gideon’s part translated to one exceptionally high eyebrow in Cam, but nothing more.
“Like I said,” Cam began carefully, “I’m married to Dulcie, and unfortunately, polyamory is not recognized under the UCMJ. I can’t marry you without her losing her benefits.”
Then, because Cam was the absolute worst, she shrugged and said, offhandedly,
“Why don’t you marry Gideon?”- or -
Harrow needs health insurance, and Gideon needs Harrow (to not be a dick.) What better way to provide for them both than a little light fraud between frenemies?

sting of a wasp by brightbolt, imperfectlyctor

Summary
"You’re a virgin,” Gideon said, testing it out. "Huh."
Harrow didn’t like the sound of that huh. She knew Gideon’s noises, and that was a thoughtful, sinister huh. That was the same huh she’d made before putting canned tuna in Crux’s work boots.
Her eyes narrowed. “What.”
Gideon cocked her head to the side. “Is there a reason you’re waiting?” There was no judgement in the question— only genuine curiosity.
Perhaps it was this that made Harrow more inclined to answer. “I don’t have the time to look for someone new,” She shrugged. “And my available pool is… somewhat limited.”
“Well,” Gideon said, with just a hint of conspiracy in those glittering golden eyes. “If you ever want to change that, you have my number.”
What? What?
Harrow blinked. “What?”
Or: the five times Gideon and Harrow successfully bone, and the one time they don't.

When Azula is nine, she becomes an only child. She hears the Fire Lord call for Zuko's life, and in the morning, her mother and brother are gone. Azula may be young, but she isn't naive. She knows what happened to them.
Which makes it all the more surprising when Azula tracks the Avatar down and fights his group of peasant friends, only to find herself staring into an eerily familiar face.

Summary
Jack has so much love in his life he thinks he could burst from it. Pop into blue and white confetti, pile miles of white, powdery joy onto Burgess, and there'd still be plenty left over for the rest of the winter world. He has Jamie, and he has Hiccup and Toothless, and he has the Guardians. He's more excited than ever to navigate whatever awaits him.
That is, until cold waters from Berk come back to haunt him. It's a fresh wound, an old storm, one he's uncertain he can weather unmoored. Lucky for him, Jack's no longer in short supply of anchors.

“I’m Kira.” Light replies.

there's something strange about that farmer by NathanWinter

Summary
“Old Farmer Carter... he told me that this Valley was home to something deep and old and slow. Magic, spirits, he didn’t quite say. I just remember that funny wording. Deep and old and slow.” Lewis takes a shaky breath. “I laughed and asked if he was talking about George… but he didn’t laugh. He told me that when he was gone, he would send something to protect it. Protect us. Never said what, or what from. I thought he just meant he’d be praying for us.” He laughs hoarsely. “But I never saw him at church…”
“Grandad,” you say gently, carefully, “what does this have to do with the new farmer?”
