Summary
I think I was listening to As The World Caves In by Matt Maltese when this happened. I can think of no other explanation. So that should tell you everything you need to know about this little vignette.
Also, I have admittedly thought to myself when reading many a fic for this pairing: "Wow these two idiots would not be honest with themselves unless the world was ending." So here we are.

Ugh, I have to do everything myself around here.
Can't find a single Self-Insert as Bakugou Katsuki fanfiction, so here I am, doing God's work.

The Notes, Theories, and Assorted Ethnographic Observations of Hermione Granger in the Elemental Countries by the_incidental_author

Summary
Hermione Granger is a Scholar. Not a soldier or a sociophath (although there are those who would argue for both), but a scholar. And for her, that means that when her research in one avenue has hit a dead end, the best route is to take a break and get away from her work for a little bit - by researching something unrelated but equally fascinating.
Or, the Hermione Needs a Vacation fic that turned into a Hermione Studies the Ninja World (and Boy is She Confused) fic.

Summary
Why is Killua the one to inherit the family business? Out of all the middle children in the world, why is it that Killua is not only noticed, but captures his family's hopes and attention so much that even the obvious choice of heir, the eldest son, insists that he will be the one to lead their family to greater heights of infamy? Expectations like that don't just come out of nowhere.
One-shot about Killua's early life, and how the Zoldyck Family Dynamic(TM) came to be.

Summary
Lan Wangji walks forward, extending his senses for some sign of the magic confining them. But there is nothing. One moment, he is walking away from the village. The next, Wei Wuxian stands in the road ahead of him, the dizi tracing lazy arcs in the air.
He stops and looks behind him. The view has not changed. He stands there, helpless. Baffled. Like a koi circling a pond, eternally struggling to go nowhere.
“Messes with your head, doesn’t it?”
He turns to Wei Wuxian, who regards him calmly, almost pityingly. Wei Wuxian has endured this for months. Months. Lan Wangji wants to scream. He wants to batter down this cage and fly away without looking back.
Or while returning from a night hunt, Lan Wangji is trapped in a strange village that is terrorized by monsters. However, an intriguing cultivator named Wei Wuxian is also trapped there, so it isn't all bad. And guess what? They have to be roommates.

r/AmITheAsshole?
u/ChildeTartagliaAITA for not knowing I was engaged?
This is a bit of a long story, but I'm really confused right now, and wanted to make sure I included all the relevant details.
I (21M) moved away from my home country last year for work. As part of my job, I wound up spending a lot of time with my business partner (6000M). -

Summary
Ajax had a soulmate mark, just like about half the population of Teyvat did.
If Ajax ever found his soulmate, he would pretend to be normal for them. He would observe from afar if possible, and make sure nothing happened to them. That no ailments ever came to them. That they never came to lack anything.
That was the plan. Or, at least, it had been, until the Tsaritsa requested an audience with him alone and asked to see his mark.“Tartaglia,” she began, serious. “That is Morax, the Geo Archon.”
-------------
Or, Ajax is Morax' soulmate, the Tsaritsa ships him off to Liyue, and he has to pretend like he doesn't feel like he's not good enough for the Geo Archon.
[the word count up to chapter 14 was 69 420 and i think i won't achieve something as beautiful ever again]
