There must have been another way; of course there were other ways. But there had been the bearskin. And there had been a venomous, humiliated anger in Stephen. And so there had been three hundred miles of punishment.

Summary
Jack, who had been made anxious by Stephen's comment about his own nerves failing, grabbed him lightly by the shoulders, spun him round, and pressed him down to sit on the edge of his sea-chest. "You can sit there," he said, and grabbed his own pillow off his cot. He dropped it to the floor and then knelt on top of it. "And I'll sit here. And we'll go from there, yes?"
"Yes," Stephen managed. "All right. Yes. How practical."

Stephen says three astounding things.

Summary
“Eddie, I’m in love with you,” he says, heart thrumming in his chest, in his throat, in his mouth. He feels hot and cold and dizzy by turns.
“What?” asks Eddie faintly, barely even a question.
“I’m in love with you,” Buck says again. “I didn’t know, I didn’t mean to, but I am. I am.”
“You– Right, okay,” says Eddie, so visibly buffering that it makes Buck’s heart clench a little in his chest. Of course he’s in love with Eddie. How could he possibly have let himself pretend otherwise. “Wasn’t expecting this, bud,” says Eddie, and he sounds so shocked that Buck can’t help a wry smile. Of course Eddie’s surprised. They must be the only two people in existence who didn’t already know. “I– Buck, man, you know that I care about you, but…”
“I know,” he says gently to Eddie, because he did know, but that doesn't make this moment hurt any less.
---
Post season 8, Buck confesses his feelings, Eddie lets him down as gently as he can, and they both try to figure out how to be just friends.

Summary
A spicy history of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Duchess Satine Kryze, from their first kiss during their year on the run, to their heart-wrenching breakup, their Clone Wars reunion, and beyond.
Keeping things (mostly) canon-compliant, so expect a certain amount of infinite sadness.
Updates regularly.
Let's be honest, this is mostly porn, but I promise, there's some plot too...

Summary
Let us consider the fact that the Jedi Order is a monastic religious organization based out of a temple, with five basic tenets of faith.
Ch 1: Death, yet the Force (meeting Anakin)
Ch 2: Chaos, yet Harmony (teaching Anakin)
Ch 3: Passion, yet Serenity (teaching a teenaged Anakin, good grief)
Ch 4: Ignorance, yet Knowledge (Anakin is a Knight now, why is he still Obi-Wan’s problem?)
Ch 5: Heresy, yet Orthodoxy (actual plot? Ie, Clones and Sith)
Ch 6: Emotion, yet Peace (epilog)Ch 7: extras / deleted scenes

Summary
In 1938, there's a bar in Brooklyn called Sully’s where people are safe to be themselves. Behind the bar, a girl pours drinks. She's always got a big smile for Steve and she says queer like it's a good thing. On a regular basis, she takes his shoulders in her hands and tries to shake sense into him, saying, "When will you do something about that best friend of yours?"
In 2012, Bucky’s gone, but Steve’s not, and the girl’s hands are too old to shake him. She does her best to make him see sense anyway.
Steve had people who loved him before the war, and it turns out a few of them are still around when he finally comes home.

Summary
"Well that wolf spirit," started Sokka, "it shows-showed me that boy, but it was never clear about why. And...and from the way I described him, I mean, you know he's…?"
"Fire Nation," Kanna, Sokka grandmother, finished. Her tone remained even and uncompromised.
"Right...so...why do you think it showed him to me?"
"Do you still see Iwei? Does it visit you?"
"S-sometimes. Yeah."
"And do you still see that boy?"
"...yes."
The sound of ocean waves filled the silence.
"You are conflicted. I understand."
"Why could the spirits possibly want me to meet him? He's the enemy."
"He is also your Spirit's Tether."
"My what?"
"Spirit's Tether, or as it is sometimes called, soulmate."
"You...you're joking, right? Please tell me you're joking."- Language:

Summary
Meet Sruthi.
She's broken. She must be, for her parents to be so eager to dump her at a temple halfway around the world from home. It's a place with a reputation for handling "difficult cases," but no amount of meditation can possibly fix her. If only she'd never been born a firebender.Meet Grit.
The earthbender who never was, her father sends to her his hometown on Kyoshi Island. There she must find her place in a farming village full of familiar strangers. Being a teenager is hard enough without being the black sheep, too.Meet Akiya.
She and her waterbender girlfriend travel the Earth Kingdom at their whim. Others may not get them, but that's fine as long as they're allowed on their merry way. Too bad reality is nowhere near as kind as their world of two.Meet Hana.
Republic City. Air Temple Island. This is it, the start of a whole new life. She thought she was prepared for anything, but she never expected to reconnect with her estranged family or fall for definitely the weirdest man she's ever met. To top it off, she may just be the worst airbender who's ever lived.Their lives will collide in a tale of metaphysics, misfits, and unlikely love.

Summary
Dying was natural. If there was anything natural about being beaten to death by a clown with a crowbar and blown up. Coming back to life was less natural, but not unheard of. Jason would personally not recommend having to dig your way out of your grave, but whatever universe-controlling entity that was running this show didn’t seem to care for his opinions.
Dying twice was just a natural consequence of his resurrection. Sure, he’d expected to be kicking around for more than a year or so after his miraculous return, but he supposed accidentally spooking a tiny assassin child and getting stabbed to death was a funny enough way to go. His life was a joke after all.
Now, coming back to life a second time was completely unexpected.
(A Titans Tower AU where Death doesn’t seem to stick for Jason Todd anymore, but Tim doesn’t know that when he accidentally kills him.)

Meet Death Sitting by Anoke, bomberqueen17, hobbitdragon
Fandom Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types
30 Dec 2025
Summary
OK this series has been going on for 2 years now and I should summarize it better.
The first part is several decades of, largely, Geralt and Jaskier's interactions, as they both fumble together toward some kind of meaningful understanding. That section largely concludes with a Jaskier/Geralt/Yennefer endgame.Then there's a time jump, and the series picks up after the events of the Witcher 3 games. I follow Lambert as he copes with grief, and Keira as she learns new things about herself, and the lives they make.
I decided to tell the story of how Ciri became Empress after W3, which intersects with Keira and Lambert's adventures; I read the books somewhere in this and got invested in some of the themes they brought up. And entangled with this, I got interested in the politics of the North, especially the Upper Aedirn Free State and the threads laid down in the Witcher 2 game that didn't exactly get resolved in Witcher 3, and so I have several stories dealing with that thread, which will intersect with the other stories in the same timeline.
See notes for chronological dates and what order the stories really ought to go in!
