    Summary

    He dreams of the wind being knocked out of him, and he falls, and falls. He lands on his face and tastes bitter rubber and iron against his mouth, feeling heavy and weightless at the same time. As his ribs expand, and as the pain spreads through his aching limbs, he’s suddenly being yanked out by an overwhelming force—and he sees endlessly blue-yellow skies as his bleary vision accommodates, rays of blurry glimmering light peak through soft, shifting clouds. He hears a voice whisper by his ear, in a velvety soft timbre, deep and rich—comforting, indolent, whole. His heart stutters and all his feelings rush through him in waves upon tidal waves.

    “Suho-ya,” the voice says.

    He sinks, and doesn’t resist this time.

    Summary

    Now that he's looking for it, Yuuji can feel it: the words are etched into him, woven into his muscles and carved into his bones. Start by saving me, Itadori. Yuuji promised he would, so now he must.

    The burning pain is starting to come back again. It begins in his chest this time, slightly to the right. Yuuji swallows, reaching up to press his hand against it.

    So, he thinks dazedly, as the universe begins to take him apart. This is what happens when you break a Binding Vow.

    -

    Megumi dies in Shinjuku. Yuuji is thrown back in time to save him. Again, and again, and again.

    (Or: Yuuji says “I’ll save you, Fushiguro” and the universe says “bet.”)

    Summary

    Regulus is in search of change, for something to fill the ever growing void in his chest that has been inside him for as long as he can remember. He leaves Paris and his ballet company behind to move back to London, where his friends, his old company and his brother are waiting for him. He tries to fill the void with all sorts of unhealthy things, but something—rather someone keeps trying to get in the way.

     

    James is happy with his life, he’s good at his job, he loves his friends, he has a nice flat, so why isn’t that enough? Why is the smile that he’s had plastered across his face all his life starting to feel forced? He’s met head on by a force of nature, a storm in the form of a mean, stubborn and ridiculously pretty ballet dancer and he starts to realise what he’s been missing all this time.

    OR

    Regulus is a ballet dancer & James is a simp!

    Summary

    In the waning days of the Heian era, the Inumaki clan stands as an indomitable military power. The heir, just months away from claiming his birth right, is burdened with the dreaded gift of Cursed Speech. Haunted by tragedy and shunned by kin, Toge's fate alters with the arrival of his new personal guard, Yuta Okkotsu, a skilled warrior seeking redemption for his own past transgressions. Despite Toge’s self-loathing and Yuta's struggle with connection, their paths converge when a perilous conspiracy threatens Toge's life.

    Yuta, who is slowly falling for the silent boy with violet eyes, finds himself caught in a torment of emotions - his duty as Toge’s protector, his own quest for absolution and the lingering ache of Rika’s tragic death.
