Who Says Words Are Needed? by Guardian_Rose

Summary
She’s been in the shop for an hour, just like yesterday, already as the clock chimes 5pm. Mr Fell knows she’s here. He’d given her a cup of earl grey tea without asking her anything or saying much beyond “please don’t spill it”. She’s still sipping at the last dregs of it, wanting to make it last as if it would be a good enough excuse for Mr Fell to not kick her out. She just doesn’t want to go home. It’s getting worse there and another night spent under that roof seems like hell to her. So she lingers long enough to see the red haired man stalk into the shop.
“Angel! You fucking stood me up! We had plans! You better be discorporated or something, Zira.” The man is clearly covering his distress with the anger, it’s a painfully familiar tone.
She rounds a shelf into the main floor space in time for the man to spin around, sunglasses hiding his eyes even indoors. He sees her and frowns.

For the request: 'a kid comes to the bookshop for hours every day and eventually the ineffable husbands realise the kid’s parents are abusive and the kid’s been going to the bookshop to get away from them as much as possible so they’re like “screw it we’re your parents now”'

Summary
“Wade,” Logan mumbles as he scoots closer, and strokes a gentle hand down Wade’s spine, “wake up, bub.”
Wade shifts, too, onto his side, and Logan tugs him closer, his back to Logan’s chest, Logan’s hand on Wade’s waist. “C’mon, you’re all right, you’re having a bad dream—”
Logan blinks, startled, at the knife in his upper thigh.
“What the fu—”
[5 times Logan doesn’t know how to handle Wade’s trauma, plus the 1 time Wade shows him that his instincts have been right all along.]
[This is the one story that probably makes the least sense if you haven’t read the other ones. Yet I was still nice enough to make it readable as a standalone. Which means you should absolutely go and read all the other ones in the series. Pretty please?]

Summary
(Two dragons talk about asexuality with the survival of their species on the line. No understanding of the Inheritance Cycle canon required.)
“There's something wrong with me,” says Saphira.
“There is not,” says Glaedr. “You are a little bit unusual in this one aspect, but there is nothing wrong with you. You are not broken in any way. You are not any less of a dragon now than you were an hour ago.”

Summary
"It didn't make you feel any better, right?" Xie Lian asks, leaning forward. Hua Cheng raises his eyebrows in surprise; probably he wasn't expecting Xie Lian to engage. "You thought revenge would make it hurt less to be alive. But it didn't."
"There's a hole," He Xuan agrees. He takes another step into the room and closes the door, then sags against it as if he has the right. He closes his eyes, his handsome face pale with death. "There's a hole in me. I thought it would heal. Instead it just got deeper."
--
BIG SPOILERS FOR CH124-5!!!! He Xuan comes to Hua Cheng for answers.

Faces do all sorts of things. Sometimes they make funny faces, or mad faces, or sad faces. Sometimes they get shy when they meet new people. There's a lot of variation in faces, and no one face is intrinsically better than another.

“This wouldn’t be a problem if you accepted my friend request.” Yuuji pouts.
“Yuuji-kun,” Gojou says, tone all infinite patience. “How could I know that the random teenage boy trying to friend me on social media was my time-traveling student?”
Yuuji rolls his eyes. “Because you’re Gojou-sensei.”
It’s hard not to be a little charmed.
OR: yuuji travels back in time. he’s not especially good at it, depending who you ask.

Summary
“Yuuji,” Satoru voices, testing out the syllables. “It’s a good name. But persisting benevolence doesn’t really suit you, does it?”
“Doesn’t it?”
“You are the King of Curses,” Satoru points out drily. “They also called you All the World’s Evil.”
“I remember,” says the man with a voice too soft and eyes too warm to suit either moniker. “After all, I lived it. But I prefer my name.”
“Wouldn’t the big bad boogeyman of sorcerers prefer a scarier name?” Satoru flashes Yuuji his best shit-eating grin and is rewarded with a twitch in that studiedly pleasant expression. “Presentation is important, you know.”
“Is it,” Yuuji drawls, sarcasm cutting through the toothless softness of his voice. “My name was given to me with love. That alone makes it superior to the ones formed from fear.”
“How romantic,” Satoru says automatically, dissecting this new information. “That wasn’t in the history books.”
“But you knew my name.”
“Oh, the name is there. The love isn’t. Who loves a monster so sweetly?”
“Why don’t you tell me?”
Satoru has a late-night philosophical discussion with the King of Curses.

Summary
Geralt’s first thought is that whoever had come up with all those tales about witchers had done a really bad job of it. The man standing in front of Geralt, with his pretty face and sweet, boyish smile, is about as far as humanly possible from the picture Geralt’d had in his mind of a typical witcher.
“I’m Jaskier,” the witcher says, then stares hopefully at Geralt.
“Geralt.”
Jaskier beams. “Well, it’s lovely to meet you, Geralt.” The witcher peers at him inquisitively. “You’re not very talkative, for a bard.”
Geralt grunts. “You’re pretty damned talkative, for a witcher.”
[or: a canon AU in which Jaskier is a witcher and Geralt is a bard.]
