Summary
Three dark mage-kings known as the Sea Lords, the Orphaner and his two sons, hold the world in an iron grip. The reincarnation of an ancient hero known as the Sufferer leads a rebellion against their power. For all the blood and magic spilled, it seems the world will be at war forever.
Rebel spymaster Sollux Captor is kidnapped by one of the Sea Lords to break a puzzling code. He's sure his fate is interrogation and death, or worse. But the lines between friend and foe are less clear than they seemed, and his captivity may have placed him in the perfect position to turn the tide.
[inspired by the world of the 'Black Company' series by Glen Cook; you don't need to be familiar with it to understand this story.]

Summary
There exists a disease in which a child is born with only half a functioning heart. The left side is malformed. Damaged. The right side may work on its own for a time, but a heart cannot beat without its other half. It is only through persistence and care that this ugliness, this other side of the heart, can be guided toward life.

Summary
For the fifteen students of Gandalf's Health and Family Class, it's the biggest grading project of the year. Split into co-parenting units, given magic flour sacks that scream and giggle, the teens must cope with unimpressed parents, Arwen's shopping sprees, special needs babies, the LIfetime Movie that is Sigrid's situation, Eowyn's bossy personality and heavy schedules, Gimli's fondness for kitting, (the dwarven version of knitting), Boromir and Frodo being forced to co-parent as a way to work through their issues, and bets being laid on how long Merry and Pip's baby will last. Bilbo runs interference with angry parents and guardians, calls emergency meetings, and bakes.

Summary
"Fucking Striders. If they're not collapsing two existent personalities they're subdividing into half a dozen new ones. Old-Strider, robo-Strider, fucking wiggler-hopbeast-Strider. What next? Banana-flavored-Strider? Why the fuck would we ever need that many Striders?"
“Yes, I’m sure this must be very distressing for you.”
Karkat turns, spinning slowly on one foot. He levels a silent stare.
You wiggle your eyebrows.
