Summary
Jayce Talis made his fortune with the Hexgates, but is now an indolent playboy, as corrupt and scheming as the rest of Piltover's elite; at least by day. By night he is the Defender of Tomorrow, using secret Hextech weaponry to strike back against the city's oppressors.
The Herald fights for the people of the Undercity every night, using strange rune magic to overwhelm the rampant crime. By day he is just Viktor, a wearied scientist running a medical clinic for those who cannot afford care.
The Defender and Herald are bitter enemies, only restrained by the thin truce between their cities. But when a class war begins to loom once again, the two are forced to work together to save both their respective homes.

Summary
Achilles cannot imagine what this prince from the surface might be like. Raised by Demeter! A young god with his father’s wrath and his mother’s impetuousness, fuelled by his grandmother’s calculated spite. He thinks of the swathes of dead that disembark Charon’s ferry still shivering and huddled together as though their shades could hold warmth.
Perhaps the Zagreus who has grown up with cold eternal is as icy and cruel as Demeter herself. Perhaps he will bring nothing but strife. Olympian history is full of sons overthrowing their fathers, after all.

Summary
Your fingers brush over the pages of the open sketchbook in your lap, a charcoal stick held in your other hand. You flick it over your knuckles, tounging at the back of your teeth as you allow your wrist to move with your flowing thoughts.
You think of Astarion’s words from the first time you had caught him gazing into that broken mirror, fresh on your mind even if it feels like it’s been ages since you’d heard them.
“I want to know what the world sees when it looks at me. What you see.”
(Or, you draw Astarion to show him what he looks like.)

Summary
I (30M) keep getting into fights with a cook at Waffle House.
---
"Uh, hey, 'scuse me?" Nick calls out toward the kitchen.
"Sorry?" the cook asks. He comes over, and Nick gets a good look at spiky blonde hair and fathomless blue eyes framed by lashes like clock springs. "Was there something wrong?"
And okay. So Nick might have a thing for a tall blonde with a dancer's figure. A man likes what he likes. With an effort he usually reserves for life-and-death scenarios, he forces himself to smile and says, "Is this your first day?"
"No? Why do you ask?"
"I asked for my eggs over easy."
The cook glances at Nick's table, now holding six different eggs cooked three different, incorrect ways, and Nick can see in his eyes the exact moment he decides the next thing he'll say. His brow furrows into a faux quizzical expression. "I don't see the problem," he answers.Bookmarked by vorkosigans

Summary
Rumor has it there’s something special in the wilderness just beyond New Nevada. In your darkest hour, with your fuel gone and on the last rations of water, cry out for salvation and a voice might answer you. The toll of an iron bell will lead you there.
The white chapel on a hill.
But rumors come a dime a dozen on No Man’s Land. You’ll be hard pressed to find anyone who’s ever seen this chapel. Because rumors are rumors, and you can’t trust those.
Because sometimes, a town’s best kept secret is best left alone.

Summary
Vash is gone. The Eye of Michael is in shambles. Nicholas D. Wolfwood is at loose ends. He is a loose end. It’s just a matter of time before someone remembers he exists and comes to bring him back into the fold or finally put him out of his misery.
He leaves while JuLai is still a smoking ruin--shoulders his cross and walks away. He doesn’t have a destination in mind. He half-hopes he’ll just die out there, where the wind and sand can wear away the evidence of his brief, misspent life until all that’s left is the Punisher as a grave marker.

mashed potatoes by blue_wonderer

Summary
“Look me in the eye, Blondie, and repeat after me.”
“Repeat after me,” Vash parrots dutifully, like the little shit he is.
“I, Vash the Stampede, Broom for Brains, Dumb of Ass, Bearer of the Stupid Face—”
“There you go hurting my feelings again,” Vash says, but he’s smiling. A real one. As soft as mashed fucking potatoes. It pisses Wolfwood off enough to slam that pretty face into the concrete. Or into his own face. He hasn’t decided just yet.
“—will save my own life for once and get out of town without making an ass of myself.”
“You’re talking about my ass a lot.”
And then Vash kisses him.
OR
Nicholas, and the scars he doesn’t have.

Over time, the owner, Vash, gets to know Nick and introduces him to the rest of the neighborhood, including local busybodies and married feminist bookshop owners Meryl and Milly. Vash and Nick are inexorably drawn to each other until they have to start admitting their feelings.
But Vash's brother, co-owner of the garden center, hasn't left his past as far behind as the twins had hoped when they started their lives over in May.

Summary
The song ends. The radio host reads the title of the next one as Wolfwood reaches to pry the bottle away from Vash and take another swig. A piano leads in, the tempo lower and the tone far more sentimental. Wolfwood doesn’t recognize it—but then, he’s never really been one for crooners.
When he slides the bottle back onto the table, he realizes Vash is staring at him blearily, his chin propped up on his knuckles. “What?” he asks, his voice slightly raspy from the liquor. Those blue-green eyes are looking dangerously wistful.
“D’you know, I’ve never danced before.”

Summary
On a good day, Wolfwood cursed and Vash shot something that was not a person and they got drinks after. On a bad day, one or both of them bled. He supposed it had only been a matter of time until their lucky streak ran out.
𓆰
Wolfwood takes a bullet for Vash. No one is happy about it.

Summary
Fear gripped Wolfwood’s heart when he saw Vash silhouetted against the dying light: a shambling, semi-divine smoking gun brought low from the heavens. And then Vash stumbled on a rock and went down in an ungainly flutter of wings, and Wolfwood relaxed. Same old idiot.

Summary
Vash the Stampede is indestructible until he isn't.
Wolfwood picks up the pieces.
(Wolfwood gathers every single broken fragment he can find, painstakingly glues them back together, and wills them—Vash—to just stay put for once, dammit.)
