Summary
High Sage Kenji blesses Fire Prince Zuko with the resilience of the reed, who bends in the wind and never breaks. When he is done, Fire Prince Ozai narrows his eyes, seemingly displeased by this blessing. But Kenji does not speak for himself; he is only a vessel.
-
The newly-crowned Fire Lord Ozai offers his firstborn son to service in the temple.
This turns out to be a catastrophic mistake.

Summary
[Time passes oddly. Between one second and the next, Sokka has the Fire Lord pinned to the wall with his hands around the bastard’s throat. Golden eyes (one gold eye, his mind whispers) widen in shock.
“Sokka?” he chokes out. And then he smiles.
What the fuck?
“Sokka, I—”
Sokka slams his head against the wall, once, twice, and the smile wipes off his face. Good.
“What,” Sokka bites out, “have you done to my sister?”]
Or:
An injury leaves Sokka with amnesia. His last memory is of the failed invasion, of leaving his father behind in enemy territory on the Day of Black Sun. Of hopelessness. Rage.
But then he wakes up, and the war is over. Suddenly, he must come to terms with the fact that years have passed, and that he's somehow the Southern Water Tribe Ambassador to the Fire Nation. He is also supposedly friends with banished-Prince-turned-Fire-Lord Zuko, of all people. Close friends.
Yeah, nah.

Summary
Azula, thoroughly enjoying life as an only child, finds out Zuko isn't as dead as she'd thought. It soon becomes clear he isn't exactly the brother she wasted time mourning, either. He's older, calmer, and oddly chatty.
Lucky for her, he's as naive as ever.

Theseus' Guide to Ruining a Perfectly Good Boat by stump_not_found
Fandoms: Gravity Falls
18 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
The kids fall through the portal, and Stanley chases after them. He will not lose them the way he lost his brother.
Refusing to repeat the mistake of 30 years ago, the family becomes stranded in the multiverse, stuck without a clear path home. Stan's got his brother back, at least, but Stanford isn't the same as Stan remembers. Looks the same, sure, talks the same, absolutely - but he's got a 'professional working relationship' with Bill Cipher that Stan'd really rather not interrogate, and seems to have changed his whole vibe from Virgin Loser, to Space Cowboy Wizard; Which isn't all that different, now that Stan thinks about it.
Stan and Ford must now find a way to kill Bill, get the family back to Earth, and try to keep the ghosts of their past from tearing them apart. Again. Same boat, different planks, and neither one can deal with their own reflection in the water.
Well, whatever. They can handle this.

Summary
Bill Cipher begs the Axolotl for a second chance on the verge of death. The Axolotl agrees, like the bleeding-heart idiot that it is. All Bill has to do is pass a little trial. How hard can that be for a dream demon of unfathomable cosmic power?
He wakes up in 1979. And he is not a dream demon of unfathomable cosmic power.

Summary
Omegas were a rare prize and had Illumi been born to any other family, he would have been hailed as a blessing from the beyond.
Instead, he was born a Zoldyck, and the fact he wasn't an alpha Zoldyck meant he was immediately considered inadequate. Certainly no heir.
-
An original take on an alpha-omega AU. Illumi, an omega, meets Hisoka, an alpha, while aboard an airship, and they have a strange, rare connection that they deny for as long as they can. How long, you ask? Long enough for Illumi's parents to interfere with an arranged marriage. How...unfortunate.

Summary
Senku and Gen have never had to pay much mind to their endotypes. With weak senses and weak pheromones, the usual pitfalls never really applied to them, which they both gladly exploited. Perhaps that made them a little naïve when it came to their own biology, but, in their opinions, it was well worth the trade-off.
Then they met each other.

Monday's Melancholy by Fieryjeanne (Justletmein)
Fandoms: Dr. STONE (Manga), Dr. STONE (Anime)

Tags
Summary
If someone had asked Senku Ishigami about his opinion on Gen Asagiri, he would have said that he was ‘just a magician who wrote trashy psychology books’.
However, even if that really was his honest opinion (based solely on the one book he read from him) that still wouldn’t be the whole truth.
Yes, he did consider Gen Asagiri ‘just a magician’ and yes, he could swear that his book was ‘trashy’ at best. However, there was also a third thing he always omitted.
Gen Asagiri was also the first (and thankfully last) celebrity crush he had.
Or in which Senku falls for an impossible love.

Summary
“You gotta be kidding me,” Senku mutters as he stops in front of the cracking statue.
7,7 billion people in the world, 126,17 million Japanese citizens, and yet… it had to be him.
“Excuse me? Who are you?” Gen stares at him in disbelief, slowly straightening up from his previous position. “And why are you dressed like that?”Or AU where Senku revives Gen before Tsukasa.

Summary
His mission can end here. There's no need to do much else except observe from a distance. In a few hours time, maybe when the sun sets, Gen could have collected enough intel to take back to his self-proclaimed leader and be on his way. There isn't much waiting for him at the empire, nothing at all really, but he has status that can sway things in his favor with a little bit of effort.
Then his target turns around to talk to someone and all of the air is knocked out of Gen's lungs.
Twin lightning strikes goad him forward.
He swallows past a lump in his throat, knowing what he has to do.

Summary
After agreeing to put their possible relationship on hold, this is a collection of shared moments between Yuu and Jamil as their affections for one another continue to grow.
Some moments are long and intimate.
Some moments are short and sweet.
Inspired by the Vignette stories and special events of Twisted Wonderland.
…
Then the hand smoothed its way upward, giving the top of her head a founding pet before pulling away.
Hold on, Yuu knows that touch.
…
“That was…you were acting as a retainer.”
“Yes.”
“So that happens…often for you.”
“Uh-huh.”
“Because you were tasting for poison…through his mouth.”
Jamil struggled to push the word out. “…yes.”…
“Then…” Glancing to her hand, the vice housewarden of Scarabia reached a finger to hook around hers—touching the smoothness of her skin against his calloused ones. When she didn’t pull away but heard her breath hitch, Jamil continued to interlace his digits with hers as he asked, “…what do you feel now that could be shared between us?”

Summary
Modern AU (no petrification) – Gen works as a high-class (and high-priced) escort, where whatever the client wants, the client gets. He doesn’t love the work, but it pays well and he’s good at it, and no one loves their job anyway, right? But then a new client comes along and changes the rules of the game, and now Gen has to consider what he values more: his cushy lifestyle, or the possibility of starting something new.

Science has rules. Directions. Recipes. Paths that can be followed to secure an assured outcome. But navigating emotions, relationships and sexuality... There is no charted course, no trodden path, no true north.

Summary
Gen had no plans when he packed a bag, bought a plane ticket for New York, and ultimately ran away from home in the span of a night, simply functioning off the need to disappear. Needless to say, taking a transcontinental trip across America via train with a science-obsessed stranger was not what he had expected when he decided to abandon his lush lifestyle in Japan. But even then, Gen couldn't help but want to join the eccentric stranger in his journey of chasing the stars. More specifically, he wanted to chase him.
