    Summary

    "They call it breaking... when you train a horse for riding. You break it. Isn't that strange?" Lottie's gaze in the firelight was sharp, gleaming; Shauna felt it like a knife held to her throat. "Nothing wild can ever truly be tamed."

    --

    Shauna believes Lottie's loyalty will secure her crown. Lottie believes Shauna holds the key to a new way of connecting with the wilderness.

    (Or, shauna and lottie both have a lot of issues that weird gay ritual wilderness sex will probably definitely make worse)

    Story picks up after season 3.

    Summary

    “I bet he’s happy you’re safe.” Terry smiles sadly and looks up at her. “None of us wanted you to get hurt...”

    Nobody ever does see what they’re doing as hurting her. The fate of humanity has always meant more than how she felt. She reaches under the hair covering the three parallel scars over her eye to touch them. A reminder of how much she’s been hurt for humanity's sake.

    “Yeah.”

    Summary

    “Hardly the first person to dislike me,” Cao Cao hummed. “But definitely the most devoted.”

    “For now,” Xiahou Dun grumbled. “You’ve got a talent for inspiring either awe or hatred, Cao Cao…”

    Cao Cao exhaled sharply. It was almost a laugh. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”

    Xiahou Dun, and how his name will forever be written-- in every history book-- right next to Cao Cao's own.
