    Summary

    You thought the dreams were just that. Dreams.

    Until you wake up in the world of jujutsu sorcerers and realize you’ve survived it before. As forgotten memories resurface, you’re pulled between what was lost and what’s unfolding now, especially when an unexpected bond forms with someone you're meant to fear.
    Caught between past and present, enemy and ally, you begin to understand the cost of remembering too much and loving the wrong person in the wrong time.

    You lived across eras.

    And someone else remembers you too.

    Link was gone, and Ravio couldn’t handle it.
    Link came back, left again, and Ravio knew too late that he loved him.

    Summary

    The war took Hermione Granger in the middle of itself, and what came after was nothing she had words for yet.
    She had always been certain of certain things — who she was, what she believed in, who she could count on when it mattered. She had built her entire life on those certainties, carefully, the way you build something you intend to last.
    It turns out that certainty, like most things, has a threshold.
    What happens when everything you were sure of gets tested — your convictions, your friendships, your own name repeated in the dark like a fact you're keeping alive through repetition — is something she's still figuring out. What happens when the enemy turns out to be more complicated than the enemy was supposed to be is something she's trying very hard not to think about.
    She is not the same girl by the end.
    Neither is he.
    Slow burn. Dark themes. Enemies to lovers.

    Summary

    There was once a prince named Mo Ran, who lived in a kingdom—Sisheng—that kept him safe for many years.

    One day, at the balcony of his room, the prince noticed something peculiar. It was a man, decked in pure white armour. The man did something strange. Oddly, the man plucked a flower in the garden!

    Summary

    An alternative continuation of the Luna IV scene where Dottore trapped Aether. Traveler said Dottore could never know what he wanted. Dottore is determined to prove him wrong.

    The Traveler has befriended Archons and Harbingers alike, but when it comes to Dottore, he refuses him outright. Through study, negotiation, and whatever agreements Aether can be persuaded to sign, he intends to make himself indispensable.
    He understands what Aether wants, what he lacks, what he's been carrying alone for too long. He knows, and he offers, and Aether fails — gradually, then completely — to keep pretending that none of it is working on him.
    Dottore did not expect to end up feeling understood in return, and yet Aether proves to be someone who wants him more than any of his initial plans accounted for.
    Eventually, they become special for each other, in their own twisted way. The world, meanwhile, has its own plans to test just how much this bond can withstand.

    p.s. Dottore is autistic here
    p.p.s. Because the fic is a whole big story, toward the end it might lean into OOC because character development

    Luna VII will also get integrated here in a certain way, but Moonttore remains alive throughout

    Summary

    Mahiro and her friends are entering their third and final year of Junior High (middle school). With their graduation from mandatory education coming up, the group forms deeper bonds with their classmates while they seek to make the most of the time they have left in Junior High.

    As the months pass, Mahiro and friends start to wonder "What will we be doing when we graduate?"

    Though there will be some drama and character growth, this story is mainly a fluffy slice of life in Iyashikei style!

    This fan fiction is the second volume of a longer series and focuses entirely on Mahiro’s final year. Most chapters are episodic enough to enjoy without complete context, but if you haven’t read the first volume yet, I highly recommend starting there! It’s much shorter and can be read fairly quickly.

    Summary

    A canon divergence beginning after the Third Task of the Goblet of Fire.

    What if healing were possible?

    Not the kind won in battles, but the quiet kind that begins when someone is finally seen — and no longer left to endure alone.

    What if Harry — brave, shaken, only fourteen — were given a moment to breathe instead of more demands for strength?

    And what if Severus Snape, worn thin by years in the shadows, no longer had to stand alone?

    In the aftermath of Cedric’s death, Hogwarts receives someone Dumbledore had long tried to bring: Helena Oliveira, a healer whose craft is made of stillness, deep listening, and a kind of magic the wizarding world does not fully understand.

    Through her presence, survival is no longer the only goal.

    A story where gentleness, presence, and connection shape the path forward —

    and, as healing takes root, the course of the war itself begins to change.

    Summary

    There are Heroes and then there are heroes. Heroes—ones forced to take the mantle and survive the horrors that lay for them. And heroes—the ones who force themselves into the fight because there is no Hero left for the world to torture.
    Tag is neither of those things.
    She is the torture—and the Nine fabled Courageous Heroes have a new migraine to keep track of.

    Summary

    After a mysterious cosmic entity tears apart two intertwined souls during a confrontation with Arceus, one of the souls is left damaged, incomplete, and barely stable. Given the name Azure by Arceus himself, the weakened soul, now given his blessing to augment it’s weakened state, is sent into the world with a single purpose: stop the coming disaster before it consumes everything.

    Azure awakens as a lone Eevee with little memory of who he once was. Living outside the safety of guilds and civilized society, he survives by exploring dangerous Mystery Dungeons alone, despite suffering from the early stages of a memory-destroying illness known as Mystery Dungeon Dementia. Every failed dungeon crawl costs him pieces of himself, yet he refuses to stop.

    He believes evolution and becoming stronger may help him recover his fading memories and uncover the truth behind his past. But as fragments of forgotten connections, strange instincts, and hidden purpose begin surfacing, Azure slowly realizes his existence may be tied to something far greater than he ever imagined.

    Can Azure hold himself together long enough to save the world?
