    Summary

    Shane’s eyes snap open. Wait a second.

    “Ilya,” Shane says, propping himself up on his elbows. “Ilya, wake up.”

    Ilya makes a pained noise, eyes still shut. “I shut curtains already.”

    “It’s not that. Ilya, hey. Don’t go back to sleep.” Ilya tries to bury back into Shane’s chest, but adrenaline knifes through Shane’s hangover long enough for him to peel Ilya off and roll him into his back. Ilya blinks blearily up at him, starfished in the sheets. Beautiful and naked and missing his mother’s cross.

     

    OR: When Ilya’s cross goes missing after the Centaurs celebrate their first Stanley Cup win, Shane is determined to get it back. And so are the Centaurs. And the rest of Ottawa.

    Summary

    “Not the glittering weapon fights the fight, but rather the hero's heart.”

    ---

    “I am fastest,” Volly said, and he knew this was true. The other dragons told him so; no one was faster than Volly, not in the entire Aerial Corps. “We will save friends.”

    --

    Volly is a courier dragon, not a hero, until the day he's both. (Volly POV)

    Summary

    He cannot lie and he does not want to. He plays his own name like a whisper. Wei Ying.

    Lan Wangji's breath hitches. His eyes are open but they are unreadable, a flash of gold in the pale moonlight. He hesitates for one moment like he does not know what to ask, perhaps as if he has too many questions. Wei Wuxian waits for the accusation, the resentment. 

    The guqin sounds more like a cry as Lan Wangji plays, Are you at peace.

    Summary

    “My back still hurts,” Noctis says, and Prompto counts it as the fifth declaration today. “I don’t think we can go out like this. What if I tell some random street vendor that I’m a virgin or something?”

    “Whoa— hey, buddy! What’s your favorite video game?”

    Prompto is content with never knowing how his friends truly feel about him. Why did that daemon have to hit everyone but him?

    Summary

    Reaping Eve is a holiday in District 4, where no one enters the arena except by choice. The families of young children celebrate their safety; the Elites who will volunteer have been training for this moment all their lives. But on Reaping Eve of the 65th Hunger Games, there's an accident. On Reaping Day, there's a dare which prompts Finnick to volunteer against Mags' instructions. Somehow that's all it takes for the system to start breaking down, especially for the most prominent Elite family in Four: the Crestas. Watching from home as a newly minted celebrity demolishes the competition isn't what they'd planned on.

    Or: It's all well and good to live in a Career district and know someone will always volunteer. But someone has to be the person who's been told from birth that his highest calling is to be a human sacrifice.

    Shout out to CryptidGrimnoir137 as my sounding board, including prompting the original idea.

    Original story is 75k words and complete as of 2/1/25. Longer alternate ending compete as of 5/5/26.

    Summary

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year! We can’t wait until we can say Happy Hunger Games in earnest (only another month!), but in the meantime, we are celebrating the best moment of Games from years past. Make sure you also check out our list of the most iconic final showdowns and our favorite post-victory moments.

    What’s on the plate for today? Glad you asked! The Games are all about triumph, but they’re also all about tragedy (which makes those victories even sweeter). Today, we’re looking at 17 final moments from Tributes that we are still thinking about. To make it harder for ourselves, we could only pick one from each Games (so if your favorite didn’t make the cut, that could be why!). Some made us scream, some made us cry, and a few even made us laugh (you’ll see!). Read on!

    Summary

    It’s been, by Ryuji’s rough estimation, two months now. Two months and Ren—Ren Amamiya, his confidant, his partner-in-crime, his very best friend in the whole world—still hasn’t introduced him to the guy he’s dating. Or shown him a picture. Or given him a name. Or anything!

    But it’s fine. It’s fine. Ryuji can be supportive while also being held completely in the dark, it’s fine.

    He’s literally going to die if he doesn’t meet this guy soon.

    Summary

    Five years ago in Inaba, a wildcard betrayed his friends and helped a murderer walk free. Now, as Medjed’s threat thrusts the spotlight on the Phantom Thieves and the Second Detective Prince racing to unmask them, police from all over Japan are called to Tokyo to help the investigation. And as the familiar silhouette of a boy with a briefcase appears on TV sets at midnight, it’s only a matter of time before someone gives the people what they want.

    (On the eve of Medjed's defeat, Goro Akechi gets thrown into the TV.)

    (Or: Miles Edgeworth has found himself surrounded by people he loves. He’s not sure when it happened, or how to pull them in closer, or how to stop sleep-eating.)

    Summary

    "Noct?" Prompto asked in a deceptively calm voice, wavering at the edges with barely restrained panic. "Why has your dad invited me to the citadel for a private audience?"

    "I don't know," Noct lied. "I guess you'll just have to meet him and find out."

    With a deep, world-weary sigh, Prompto's head hit the window behind him with a decisive thunk. "Hey Iggy, you're good at political mumbo-jumbo," he said, and Ignis hummed an affirmative. "If I kill the Crown Prince does that mean I won't have to meet the King anymore?"

    @ohnoourtableitsbroken3 | omg why is this so embarrassing??? im embarrassed FOR her

    @sugarsweetbabiex | god i want batdaddy to shout at me too

    Babs sees a little face over her crossword puzzle and a pair of impossibly light blue eyes looking at her. She jolts, clutching her chest.

    “Hi,” Tim says obliviously, casually balancing his weight on her drawn-up knees with his soft gummy palms. “You look sad.”

    --
    15-year-old Babs has never needed validation from anyone, but... Batman's latest words to her have left her spiraling. It would be a good time for a mental health break, if not for the men trying to kidnap 5-year-old Timothy Drake while she's babysitting him.

    Summary

    Crests are status. Crests are strength. Crests are power.

    Claude doesn't get it. Sure, the healing his crest gives him is handy. But no one talks about the drawbacks. As far as he's concerned, Fódlan's obsession with crests is overrated. His Crest of Riegan isn't worth the way it burns through his body. It isn't worth the way it skitters beneath the surface of his skin. The itch it thrums through his blood during battle isn't worth the retching he's left with hours later.

    ... He's not the only one suffering, right?

    She was suffocating him, she knew it. Drowning him in everything all at once, and he could hardly stay above water, hardly get in anything but a gasp of wet air before she sucked him back down, stealing him like a siren as she cooed sweet songs into his ears, red to the tips.

    She just couldn't decide whether she wanted to drown him or set him free.

    Summary

    Claude attracts a very specific kind of crowd.

    Claude wouldn't call himself an animal lover. He likes animals, sure. Only a monster could look at a kitten or puppy and not feel something. He's human, just like everyone else. Animals, on the other hand, seem to unanimously love him. They sense his carefully hidden soft heart, he's sure of it. It's the only explanation. They capitalize on his weakness and extort him for all he's worth. He folds like a house of cards every time a kitten so much as looks at him. Behind closed doors, he doesn't mind too much. Maybe he even goes so far as to enjoy the companionship. But he's aware no one will take him seriously if his little weakness comes to light. It's his greatest (mundane) secret.

    Unfortunately, he doesn't have enough blackmail material to silence the entirety of the Golden Deer when they find out.

    Aka Disney Princess!Claude
