Summary
Astarion collapsed face-first onto the bed next to her with a dramatic groan of pure suffering. He managed to land hard enough that she bounced, which was actually pretty impressive.
Serra set aside the sock she was darning and ran her fingers through his hair. He almost managed to not purr. “Your first longbow lesson was that fun, then?”
“Speaking as an expert, that so-called ‘ranger’ is a monster,” he announced, gravitas only slightly impaired by the fact that he was muffled by a very fluffy blanket. “I may never move my shoulders again.”
“That would be a tragedy. They're such nice shoulders.”
“Exactly. Utterly monstrous.”
Astarion tries something new. He learns more than he signed up for.
(Or, multiclassing as a heavy-handed metaphor for personal growth.)

Summary
“I never thought I’d do this again,” Isobel admits after a moment, tugging at the heavy neck of Aylin’s mail. “I think I’ve forgotten just how many pieces there are.”
Aylin laughs and she sits back, pulling the chain shirt over her head as if it were made of cotton. “Take all the time you need. We have so much of it now.”
Time. There was supposed to be near enough an eternity of it before.
She cups Aylin’s cheeks, makes a memory of how she melts just that little bit into her touch.
They’d whispered such promises between these very walls so many times, enough that the weight of Isobel’s own mortality seemed to flit further away with every kiss.
What force could possibly break them apart? Fight past Selûne's own sword and shatter this happiness?Bile rises in Isobel’s throat, her fingers firm against her face as she presses their foreheads together. It’s another familiar gesture, the touch so delicate but the words behind it clear.
Nothing will take you from me again.
Aylin and Isobel take some time to themselves following Ketheric's death.

Summary
If asked, Shisui would only be 25% lying if he said that Jiraiya's murder hadn't been premeditated.
...surely fantasising about it didn't count.

Summary
Moral of the story: Don't get between Genma's drunken escapades and Raidou's messy explorations into fuinjutsu. You might just leapfrog a decade into the past.
Additional Notes: If your name is ‘Shimura Danzo', count your days.

Summary
"The one who protects from the shadows, that’s the mark of a true shinobi.”
ANBU were entrenched in the darkest recesses of Shinobi life. They had no faces, no names, no desires but the completion of their mission and the preservation of their village.
Squad Two was as devoted as any unit, perhaps even more so than most.
…And yet-
They changed everything.
