    Summary

    There is nothing Hashirama misses from the era of warring states.

    Well, there is one thing.

    When they would meet on the battlefield, weapons clashing in a dissonant duet, Madara used to gaze at Hashirama with such fire in his eyes, as though a look could eviscerate him on the spot. Hashirama can picture his piercing gaze so well, overlaid as it is with the currently vacant expression Madara wears as he stares off into the space above Hashirama’s left shoulder.

    He never, not in a million years, would have believed that he could miss Madara’s hatred as much as he longs for his love.

    Summary

    From closer, it’s clear that Minho is about his age. He’s handsome— very much so— in an untouchable sort of way. Straight nose, sharp eyes, a defined cupid’s bow. He looks sculpted rather than born. Jisung might shrink under the weight of his presence if the situation were different.

    Knowing that Minho is dying ruins the illusion of perfection.

    Jisung answers an ad online reading: "I'm going to die, but there's a lot of things I haven't done yet that I don't want to do alone."

    Summary

    Once the last of the Hyeongshin High School students collapsed in a heap, the boy turned and looked at him with a grin.

     

    “I'm Ahn Suho.”

     

    The boy– Suho– stepped closer to Sieun with his smile still present and a hand outstretched. Sieun dimly noticed that this was the only time the other removed a hand from inside his pocket after the fight.

    Or, Sieun and Suho first meet each other in Eunjang instead.

    Summary

    “Please, Jeongin. Just drive,” Hyunjin begs. Pleads. His jaw aches from how hard his teeth are clenched. From the corner of his eye he watches Jeongin’s hand start the ignition, shaking as he shifts the car into gear.

    “Put your seatbelt on,” Jeongin murmurs. He clears his throat when it takes a second for Hyunjin to react. Then, louder, “I’ll go when you put on your seatbelt.”

    Hyunjin scrambles to do as he’s told, fixing his gaze forward again as soon as humanly possible. His white linen jumpsuit feels heavy against his legs, the halter tied behind his neck pulling uncomfortably. The engine revs, and Jeongin peels out of the lot.

    The first tears fall when they round the corner, leaving the church in the rear view.

    (OR: Hyunjin flees his wedding with his fiancé’s brother; Jeongin is secretly in love with his brother’s fiancé.)

    Summary

    The caged bird is beautiful.
    He sings prettily, calls out in shades of red and yellow and blue, and the sun shines as he sings.
    The caged bird is so beautiful.
    He remembers the first time he realized he was caged. A bear trap around his jaw. He must never speak evil, though he sees and hears it at all times, unable to stop.
    His powers are gifts. His powers are gifts. His powers are gifts.
    He does not regret his gifts. He regrets his cage.

    Summary

    Following the fall of Lysa and Robert Arryn, Sansa Stark finds herself in the Vale on borrowed time. She is no longer the sweet daughter of Catelyn Stark with her father's temper. No. She is older now. Wiser. A woman come into her own beneath the quiet tutelage of a man who has mastered the game that haunts the kingdoms of Westeros.

    In the stillness of the Eyrie, under political warfare; she will learn what it means to be loved. To be desired. To be wanted. To be watched. To preserve the safety of the Eyrie only two men might stand beside her. One offers safety. The other offers power. Neither offer love without cost. Every kindness has consequence and every silence becomes a decision. The cold loneliness of the Eyrie will shape her. And with each move, made or withheld, so too is her future.

    Content Warning: We explore themes of emotional manipulation, power imbalance, and grooming adjacent dynamics. While the actual relationship is consensual within the narrative, it is shaped by dependency, obsession, and unresolved trauma. There are references to past non-consensual sex in later chapters, but no assault is depicted in detail or between the active cast of characters.

    Summary

    Bucky blinks herself awake through blood-encrusted eyelashes to watch the woman with wings descend upon her, and can only think, she's an angel. She’s an angel coming to take me home.

    It can't be true, though, because there is no universe in which Bucky Barnes would be going to heaven.

    Then the woman barrels through the air like a grenade, crashing unceremoniously to the ground with a thump, and Bucky thinks, yeah, no, not an angel.

    (Or: Sam's got this thing that attracts her to dangerous things, and Bucky is a very dangerous thing.)

    Summary

    Yuki scoffed. “I could’ve walked,” he said, then considered the statement further and backtracked. “Well, I wouldn’t have had so much if Machi came out, at least. And then I could’ve walked,” he said.

    “Are you saying that hanging out with me drives you to drink, Yun? Because that’s rude and unnecessary,” Kakeru said.

    “No,” Yuki said. He drew out the word, swatting Kakeru’s arm lightly. “It’s just because I’m selfish and I know you’re there to look out for me.” He leaned closer and Kakeru could smell his sweat and shampoo.

    Kakeru’s mouth was dry. He coughed. “And you look out for Machi,” he said.

    Summary

    It’s a normal day. Normal by Dan and Phil’s standards, anyway. There are emails to respond to and calls to make; they need to feed themselves, which is always a chore. But that’s really it; nothing particularly exciting or, frankly, worthy of writing about. But the author thinks, perhaps a bit misguidedly, but they think that while grand adventures and convoluted plot twists are all well and good (the author, who the reader must remember has written such stories before and likely will again), the normal, boring days are also worth writing about.

    Summary

    “I don’t know what I believe anymore,” Regulus admits, voice barely audible. “I used to, and it was so much easier. There was one right path, one set of rules. Given to me by my mother, my church, my God. They all told me what to do, how to act, what to want.” He exhales, shaky. “Then my brother left and everything got muddled and… lonely.”

    “That’s just life, love,” James says gently. “It gets quite muddled and lonely at times.”

    “And how do I fix it?”

    James chuckles. “If you find out, do let me know, yeah?”

    Or

    Regulus Black wants to have a normal university experience, which seems impossible as the son of controversial far-right politician Walburga Black, and only gets more complicated when James Potter enters his life.

    Summary

    It's just two weak pillars supporting one another. What difference does it make if they get married?
    From the perspective of canon, not much. They are so low-key about the relationship that not even all the other Hashira know about it. Giyuu and Shinobu promised one another to prioritize their demon slaying missions, but that locus of priority can make it difficult to navigate their roles as spouses. What happens with their missions is of no real concern to the other, right? Maybe they both need to talk more, before they find bigger things to argue about than fictional baby names.

    This is the chronological version of my somewhat popular Tumblr-based AU, with doodles showing how this sort of lens through which to view canon either makes everything funnier or much more painful. The doodles will be posted here as relevant, but long-time followers of the AU have lots of new material to look forward to.
