    Summary

    As she turns to face another wall of bucolic artworks, the oak door glides open on freshly oiled hinges, and Mr. Nightingale steps through like a statue coming to life. He takes one look at her, eyes skating up and down her black mourning dress, and shakes his head. Despite herself, Feyre’s breath catches. He’s still the most handsome man she’s ever seen.

    “I thought our engagement had been called off,” Mr. Nightingale — Rhys — says, voice smooth as silk. He stalks toward her like a cat on the prowl, stopping just short of a respectable distance between an unmarried man and woman. If she reached out, she could touch his jacket.

    “That subject is precisely what I came here to talk about.” Feyre swallows, feeling each muscle in her throat contract under his hot gaze. He’s mesmerising, eyes so blue they’re nearly violet. “You see, I disagree.”

     

    or Marrying Winterborne by Lisa Kleypas, but make it Feysand.

    Summary

    “They’re clearly crushing on each other.” Yuichirou spelled it out for his teacher.

    “Genya’s not gay.” Shinazugawa shot back.

    “He literally has a rainbow keychain on his backpack,” deadpanned Yuichirou, “that says ‘can’t think straight’.”

    “He does?” Was the older Shinazugawa really that blind? Or just not care?

    “Clearly he made no effort in cluing you in.” Yuichirou rolled his eyes. “But he’s trying to court my otouto. So tell him to back off.”

    Summary

    “I wan’ the beer.” He paused, glossed over eyes wandering around behind where Grian stood before his lips parted more. “Yeah— but— but don’t gimme any o’ that foam!”

    Grian just nodded along, grabbing a wooden tankard, it looked to be an older one they had, a small crack riveting down the side. He turned to the barrel, twisting the handle, watching as the golden liquid slowly trickled into the mug-

    “Oh my— Grian, you would not believe the day I've had!”

    Or

    Grian is on the brink of poverty. After offering to walk him home Scar realises how bad it is.

    Summary

    Sometimes he gets tired, is all. Sometimes, watching the same people do the same thing in the same way, night after night gets a little… old. Tiring. Heavy.

    And Jason gets it. That kid who nearly got choked out last night for pick-pocketing the wrong guy? Of course he's back out here tonight; if he wasn't desperate as shit, he wouldn't have been out there last night either.

    Summary

    Myne and her family are born in Ahrensbach. Even though it has seafood, Myne’s life isn’t any easier. The land thirsts and dies waiting for more mana. The commoners struggle harder for every mouthful. The nobles are more predatory, while the archnobles frivolously trade their mana for sugar and spices. In such a land, Myne’s journey to being a librarian will be very, very different.

    The fic is completed! I'm posting it once a week every Friday.

    Summary

    What if Nico di Angelo met Jason Grace a year earlier—before the war, before Camp Jupiter, before either of them were ready to trust?

    Set between The Battle of the Labyrinth and The Last Olympian, this story begins after a quest goes wrong. Jason and fellow Roman demigod Ren are stranded in the American South—grieving, directionless. When Nico shows up with a battle plan and secrets he won’t share, their journey west begins.

    Together, they fight monsters, confront gods, and carry the weight of grief and destiny side by side. Over the next year, as war looms closer, they prepare for what's coming, forge unsteady bonds, and face the painful reality of having to say goodbye.

    A story of shadows and soft moments. Of thievery, pirates, undead fights, and unexpected connection—before Mt. Othrys, before the camps united, there was this.

    Summary

    Hongjoong had a plan.

    1) Get into a good university.
    2) Survive.
    3) Graduate and get a good job.
    4) Pay back his mom for everything she did for him.

    Nowhere on that list did he account for friends.
    Nor did he account for a blindingly kind and gentle popular boy on campus looking at Hongjoong with eyes that were much too warm and genuine, and a personality that seemed too good to be true.

    All he knew was that he would not be some rich kid’s plaything.
    No matter how warm his smile was.

    Summary

    He saw a figure sitting on the wooden platform and froze in place. Eren Yeager in the flesh.

    As he drew closer, he made out more of his drug dealer. Eren was wearing a simple black hoodie (how the hell wasn’t he cold?) and loose blue jeans. His body looked pretty fit, although it was hard to tell beneath his baggy clothes. His hair was dark, tied up behind his head, and he scrolled through his phone, lighting up a face that was—

    Handsome. Oh, fuck. This guy was really fucking attractive.

    OR: At Connie's insistence, Jean hunts down a new weed dealer. His work-friend Armin hooks him up with a very attractive, very confusing person named Eren Yeager.

    Summary

    The apartment was smaller than the word apartment deserved.

    Calling it a box would have been more honest. Four walls, a ceiling low enough that Peter felt like he’d bang his head trying to stand up from unpacking, and a window that technically opened but jammed half the time. The place smelled faintly of mildew, maybe because of the carpet - or maybe because this whole building had given up on life a few decades ago and was just waiting for someone merciful to bulldoze it.

    He told himself it was fine. He told himself worse things had happened. Which, technically, was true.

    That didn’t make him feel any better.

    Summary

    Sakura is lost, injured and alone in a forest far from home. The circumstances that led up to this are much less clear. A mysterious mental fog blankets her mind, impenetrable and obfuscating her memories.

    After scouring the land, she arrives at the horrifying conclusion that she’s been transported back in time to the Warring States era. Incredibly out of her depth, she has to navigate the old nation’s dangerous climate without becoming ensconced within their politics – a feat easier said than done, for a clan-less kunoichi.

    It's just her luck that the Uchiha start sprouting from the woodwork. It seems she can't escape them, no matter what century she's in.

    Summary

    Jason Todd is cursed. From his very conception, he was doomed to a short, tragic life filled with roadblock after roadblock, disaster after disaster. And perhaps the worst part of the curse - the most cruel aspect - is that Jason cannot accept this fate. Until his very last moment, in his darkest hour and final minute, he will fight, kick, and claw his way upwards, fully believing that he can succeed. And perhaps he will win that tiny battle, but each victory will only draw him deeper into misfortune. He's a rat in a cage, a hamster on a wheel. An ouroboro, endlessly living and dying and living again with no hope of peace.
