    Summary

    It was easy to command the Petrova Taskforce, that small world Eva Stratt had curated, and yet the wider world still needed to be accommodated, placated, until the work was done. Public perception was an important aspect of the project at large. Hers was waning, unless the press could speculate instead about her personal life rather than the world-ending choices in her hands. Attending an arts and culture gala was the least inconvenient option she'd been presented with.

    The boundaries of her selfishness were shaped by what she allowed herself to ask of Ryland Grace. As long as what they had helped her do her job— and it did, he did, she could not deny it— she could pretend, she could avoid admitting that this undefined thing meant something more than she'd intended.

    Her responsibility to the world had a penchant for forcing her hand.

    Summary

    (Sequel to Ruin My Life)

    Papers are contracts. Stratt signs hundreds every day. Their marriage certificate was not special in that regard; just a document to legally bind them together, as Ryland had wanted.

    It wasn't what he wanted though. Or, it wasn't all of it. With every day that passed that Stratt seemed no more inclined to let him past her walls than before, he came to the sinking realization that she had little intention of actually being married.


    Here are some things that make being married to Eva Stratt exceedingly difficult:

    • She wants for the world, but not herself; trying to do nice things for her is like pulling teeth
    • She trusts Dr. Grace with the mission, but she does not trust Ryland with her heart
    • And this really should not hurt so much, because it's Stratt, but— she cares about him the way she cares about a coworker; or the way she cares about every human in the damn universe. She does not care about Ryland. Attraction does not equal affection. And with every day she does not acknowledge their marriage, it becomes clearer that towards Ryland, she feels neither.

    Summary

    Loneliness is an insidious thing. When Merlin looks at Arthur, he sees not just a prince waiting for his time to rule, but a young man struggling to find his place in the world, with little help from anyone else.

    The truth is, Arthur needs more than the friendship Merlin can offer. He needs people he can trust: men and women who will become his court and his confidants, and if he is going to survive to take the throne and lead Camelot into its golden age, he needs them sooner rather than later.

    Finding loopholes in Uther’s laws is no easy feat. Court life is a dangerous game, but it’s one Merlin has every intention of winning so that Arthur can have knights of his choosing by his side.

    And then there is the matter of his magic…

    Summary

    Peter was alone, mid-way through an existential crisis after the Erasure™ and was dreading the upcoming month of May.

    Jason was sick of people telling him how he felt. ‘You don’t need us anymore,’ Artemis had told him, as if saying it would make it true. As if Jason needed someone to justify keeping them around. But three weeks back in Gotham and all Jason felt was fucking bored and lonely.

    It was a relief, then, when some random New Yorker was thrown into his living room through a portal straight out of some LSD daydream.

    Finally, something interesting to deal with.

    Cue some wild family misunderstandings, criminal conspiracies and cults.

    Because there’s always a goddamn cult.
