Summary
“H-how can you be so CONFIDENT?!” Izumo demanded, glaring down at the floor with clenched fists and shaking limbs, “H-how can you...how...how can you just not CARE?!?”
-
After the attack in the Old Boys Dorm, Izumo comes face to face with true kindness, and even truer idiocy, in the form of Okumura Rin. -

Summary
"Just once, I want someone to take what I say at face value," said Lance, the crack in his voice impossible to ignore. "I want people to look at me and not think I'm stupid, or a novelty, or..or something to be pitied."
"Just once, I want people to WANT me around, and not just have to deal with me."
-OR-
The one where Lance does have feelings, no really, he does, and bottling them up can lead to dire consequences.

Summary
“What was that?” Pidge hissed, looking very much like they were considering dropping their laptop just to hit him. “What happened to Paladin solidarity? The Wallflower Code? I thought you were my friend.”
-OR-
What happens when Keith trains Pidge in hand-to-hand combat, they end up spending more time together than usual, and everyone in the castle takes notice.

Summary
"I'm a girl."
The reactions from the team should have made her feel better. They should have eased the months of dysphoria and anxiety, should have made her smile and relax into her own skin once more.
Instead, the casual acceptance--and even incredulity, were they even supposed to believe that she was a boy to begin with?--just left her off balance and whirling.
-OR-
Pidge slowly comes to terms with the idea that gender might not be as cut-and-dry as she thought it was.

Summary
Sliding up behind Marinette, Adrien took in her stiffening shoulders for just a moment before striking.
“Guess who?” he practically purred, putting all of his confidence into his voice as he brought his hands in front of Marinette’s face and carefully covered her eyes.
"Chat Noir?"
Her voice, however, brought his anxiety ramping right back up with a healthy dose of ‘I’ve done fucked up.’

what do i see in your eyes (besides my reflection, hanging high) by neinofthem (jeyneofpoole)

Summary
But no, she was here at Caleb’s shitty table, across from Essek, who’s boring holes into the rough-hewn wood with downcast eyes. The thing about Essek, she muses, was that he felt that he was so indebted to the Nein that he was willing to do almost anything to avoid being an inconvenience. Which might, she thinks, be sort of toxic.

and have you changed your life? by neinofthem (jeyneofpoole)

Summary
It is a mild night in Nicodranas, and Veth is considering slamming the door in Essek’s face.
He’s wearing a Disguise that she hasn’t seen before and an expression that warns of future vomit. He says, shivering, “Um. Hello. Please help me?”
Veth, who is beginning to wish that she hadn’t answered the door in her skimpiest robe, attempts to surreptitiously cross her arms over her cleavage. She says, remarkably pleasantly, “Are you fucking insane?”

Summary
There is a gravity that has pulled them together many times. It pulled Caleb’s lips to Essek’s forehead, and Essek’s hands to Caleb’s arms when a tower collapsed upon him. It pulled Caleb to Eiselcross, now, to be at Essek’s side as his life as the Shadowhand dies.
Now, it could pull them together into Aeor.
(Two wizards venture into Aeor - and find that something has woken in the dead city's depths. Something dangerous. Something that will force them to decide what their pasts mean to them, and what they mean to each other.)

A thousand fingerprints on the surfaces of who I am by SkyScribbles
Fandom Critical Role (Web Series)
02 Oct 2020
Summary
'Changing is hard. For most of us, it happens little by little in in the smallest moments and we don’t notice it, we don’t choose it. But looking yourself in the face and deciding to be different – that is hard. You are unpicking threads of who you are that were put in place more than a century ago.'
(A collection of Essek-centric oneshots, following a hypothetical redemption journey post-Episode 97. Features Shadowgast and Essek's platonic relationships with the Nein. The fics are arranged in rough chronological order and are loosely interconnected, but they can all be read individually. This series was written during the 2020 hiatus, so is not canon compliant beyond episode 100.)
