    Summary

    “I'm not the same person I was back in high school,” Clark says, “and I doubt they all are, either. What would be the point?”

    “Oh, Clark,” Bruce is suddenly holding Clark's face with both of his hands, “the point is that I'm going to land us in a helicopter somewhere for all your classmates to see.”

    Clark sighs and closes his eyes.

    “Say 'yes', Clark,” Bruce orders.

    Clark doesn't open his eyes, just says, “Yes, Clark.”

    Summary

    “What do you want then?”

    To find some food on my own. It would be a perfect thing to say and an even better excuse to leave. Astarion opens his mouth to say it. “You.”

    The horrible panic from before turns into numbness. Three times. Astarion just tried to lie to Wyll three times and each time, he said something stupider than the last. Alarm bells have been ringing in his head and they are hard to ignore now.

    After two centuries of torture, agony, and suffering, the world has thrown him another wrench. This short-lived human do-gooder is Astarion’s soulmate.

    Wonderful.

    Summary

    “They always were a little nuts over money. Thinking that being wealthy makes you respectable,” Harry says.

    ”They haven't changed,” Dudley snorts.

    ”So, honestly, I really just want to tell your mum to go to hell, no offense.”

    “None taken.”

    ”But, I want to know what’s in that safe deposit box. I have so little of my parents it would be worth playing their games to get access to it. And I think I could. You know, my fiancée is wealthy… very wealthy. They’re more loaded than the GDP of several European countries.”

    Dudley’s eyes widen. ”Well, that might just equal respectability in my parents’ eyes. What are you thinking?”

    ”Maybe inviting them to the Manor.”
    ***
    Dudley Dursley is a changed man. Recognizing the abuse his cousin faced in their home growing up, he became a teacher to ensure that something similar wouldn’t happen to other children.

    Summary

    Set pre-Shadowbringers, spoilers, Sadu/Cirina slowburn.

    "So you are serious, then. This decree from your gods sends you not once, but twice to another's camp, and still you obey." Tapping her nails against the rim of her cup, Sadu deliberated over which nuances might be best to strike at first. "Speak again of these terms which have bound you."

    "Six gifts in full," Cirina replied.

    Or, at the very least, Kasumi wants a comm specialist. For a few things, actually. Some of them might even be legal. The rest, well—the rest is just for fun.
