Summary
“What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.
“Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”
“Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”
In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

Part Time Soulmate, Full Time Problem by StillKicking
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender

Tags
Summary
"Lance liked to daydream about what his soulmate might be like – when he felt scraped knees from a fall what wasn’t his, he wondered if his soulmate played tag with siblings too. When he felt a phantom loose tooth suddenly tugged out, he wondered if his soulmate’s parents bribed him with sweets the way that Lance’s did.
Keith tried not to think about his soulmate. A soulmate was just another person who would leave an aching hole in his chest when they left. When he felt scraped knees that weren’t his, or a loose tooth yanked free, he tried to pretend he didn’t feel it. He tried to pretend he didn’t have a soulmate at all."
voltron au where soulmates can feel each other's pain, and Keith and Lance have to figure out how to manage that in the middle of an ongoing intergalactic war. surely this will go smoothly

Twilight desperately needed a vacation from his job. It was too bad that he couldn't rest at all when so many things needed to be done. If he ever fell ill, it would be a devastating blow to Operation Strix and the fate of East-West relations.
But it was a good thing that Twilight (the legendary, infamous, greatest spy Agent Twilight) never got sick.

Summary
She is actually doing quite well for a time displaced young woman who has just finished a century-long battle with demon, and whose admittedly-few friends are all long dead, and who hasn't used her vocal chords or seen the sun in a hundred years.
(Intimidating word count, but it’s 4 manageable arcs.)

Finding Link by Umbreonix
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms
26 Jan 2022
Tags
Summary
The calamity has been defeated and the Champions are revived on a pure white full moon. Everything is back to how it was, except not really. One hundred years has taken its toll on Hyrule-
and where has the hero gone?
Revali is sent on a quest to find Link (but not without a lot of angry squawking about it). He travels the lengths of Hyrule with nothing to go on other than a full library of photos the hero had left in Zelda's sheikah plate. As he journeys though, the question of 'where is Link' slowly transforms to 'who is Link?' because this grinning boy in the pictures surely cannot be the same stoic brick wall they all once knew.
As extraordinarily talented as he is, he finds him all too fast and the questions only multiply from there.

Those hands of his can also guide, comfort, protect and love.It takes Loid a peanut-loving child, a terrifyingly strong wife, and a highly intelligent dog to realize that.

Summary
Though no time in their line of work could be called peaceful, nor could vacations really be vacations for anybody (especially Twilight) she just… she just never expected an… emergency of this scale would arise. A setback this adverse. This disastrous. Almost catastrophic, even, considering how much Twilight shoulders on the daily for peace between two nations. This vacation was meant to be a rest and rebuild for her busiest and most efficient agent. Her best.

Summary
“Sirius,” Remus said.
That was the only warning.
He said it softly, like a statement, almost casually– so casually that Sirius turned expecting him to ask something about what they were having for dinner, or telling him he wanted honey in his tea, or complain about how off brand sports-drink didn’t taste as good as Gatorade.
Instead, Remus’ knees were already buckling. His arm was sliding off of the granite corner of the countertop, and his shoulder was colliding with the barstool to his right, and his body was thudding against the hardwood, and the only warning Sirius got was his name. That was it.
He was moving before he even realized what was happening.

Summary
Lance’s smile widens. He leans forward, and the prickling in Keith’s chest gives way to butterflies, fluttering wildly in his stomach, and oh wow has Lance always had this many freckles, has he always had eyelashes that long, has he—
Lance pokes his cheek, right over the Galra mark. Keith blinks.
“I can’t believe you and your mom have matching face tattoos now,” he says, and it’s so fucking dumb, but it’s exactly the kind of dumb thing Keith has longed to hear, and before he knows what he’s doing he’s surging forward, almost knocking Lance back against Red’s paw, and throwing his arms around him.
In which Keith lives on a space whale, goes on a road trip, and (eventually) gets a boyfriend.

Summary
In the first instalment of Beyond the Blood Wards, readers are drawn into a world teetering on the edge of chaos, where shadows of the past threaten to consume the fragile peace of the present. At the heart of this tale stands Harry Potter, no longer just the Boy Who Lived, but a powerful young wizard forged by hardship, loss, and relentless determination. Beside him is Severus Snape, a man haunted by regret and redemption, who risks everything for a boy who is so much more than he thought.
This journey is not just a war against dark forces—it is a deeply personal fight for love, forgiveness, and the fragile hope of a better future. As they face betrayal, impossible choices, and moments of fleeting joy, each character must confront their own fears, regrets, and desires.
BtBW is a tale of sorrow and heartbreak, but also one of enduring love, unyielding friendship, and the strength found in shared purpose. It is about sacrifice and the quiet bravery it takes to keep fighting even when the odds are stacked against you.
Pt 3 of Beyond the Blood Wards is essentially porn. All sexual scenes will be placed in there with indicators of when in the story you should read. Note I have made no NSFW scenes for pt 1.

Summary
After the events of War Crimes, Sokka and Zuko have escaped Zhao’s warship and are fleeing across the Earth Kingdom. As well as unfamiliar terrain, they have to navigate their shared trauma, work out where they fit into the war, and their place in each others lives.
Sokka is aware that being friends with the enemy is going to bring complications, but he probably should have guessed that being friends with Zuko in particular, was going to be a bit like dunking your head repeatedly into a bucket of angry Fire Ferrets.
Katara is also grappling with the confusion of befriending an enemy, something that doesn’t prove as difficult as she had expected with the bond of shared, furious grief bridging old wounds. (Learning a new way to look at her bending doesn't hurt either)
Azula, struggling with the Fire Lord’s mistrust, encounters a few nasty surprises and has to make some difficult decisions. Luckily, she is a great deal better at making sensible choices than her brother.
Her father may have made a slight tactical error.
