your best kept secrets yet to be discovered by GingerAlchemy
Fandoms: Imperial Radch Series - Ann Leckie
03 May 2023
Tags
Summary
Seivarden was still looking at me with some strange sad longing, as though I was a particularly good brandy she couldn’t afford. I didn’t understand then, although a slow awareness was growing in the back of my mind.
Maybe the awareness came later, and I’m only inserting it now out of pity for our younger selves. The feeling at the time was one of utter confusion.
“I know you don’t really want me around,” she said. “But—please.”
In which Breq navigates the mortifying ordeal of being wanted.

A Garden in the Punjab by rosemaryandrue (Rosie_Rues) for minyan
Fandoms: Secret Garden - Burnett
21 Dec 2009
Tags
Summary
There is another garden, in India. These are the women of that garden, over two generations, Mary's mother and ayah, and both their two daughters. In the end, I'm afraid, this is only where the story begins, but I hope it opens up the original story and takes us out into the world beyond the secret gardens.
I'm afraid the closest I've been to India is the websites I used researching this, so if there are any glaring botanical, linguistic or cultural errors, let me know and I'll fix them.

Summary
Grantaire's family is the largest collection of idiots he's ever seen exist in one place without succumbing to death by natural selection. They're ridiculous, chaotic, sad, furious, utterly codependent, and, er, they have wings. They're also imprisoned in a secret government facility that experiments on them for unknown (but Grantaire's gonna go ahead and say sinister) reasons. The revolution will not be civilised.

Enjolras’s Truly Terrible No Good Rotten Downright Dreadful Day by PieceOfCait
Fandoms: Les Misérables - All Media Types
07 May 2020
Tags
Summary
Enjolras glances over to the suit he’d laid out yesterday in a moment of forethought. It’s a crisp light grey with a dull red dress shirt. Professional. His tricolour underwear, not so much. But one can’t be picky when it comes to lucky undies.
Not on a day like today. -

“...Grantaire?”
“‘Sup,” Grantaire does a finger gun with one hand, the other holding onto what looks to be a sketchbook.
“Why are you sitting in a tree?” is the only thing Enjolras can think to say.
