    Summary

    Something bright and wild flickered in Eijirou’s eyes. “You will undo me, Kaer’nai.”
    Before Katsuki could answer, priests entered in a line, carrying a brass bowl etched with ancient flame sigils. Thick silver liquid glowed faintly within the bowl. The lead priest bowed. “Runek Bakugou. Drake Kirishima. The hour has come.”
    Eijirou turned toward Katsuki one last time, the heat in his gaze was unmistakable. “Whatever happens, remember,” he whispered. “I will not take what you do not offer. But gods, Katsuki… I have never wanted anyone the way I want you.”
    Before the bowl could be lifted to his lips, Katsuki leaned in, barely brushing Eijirou’s mouth with his own as he spoke. “Tonight, you will not bow to prophecy. You shall only bow to me.”

    Or; The Thren’Kai is a holy union, binding kings to their dragons. As Katsuki ascends to the throne, it is his time for such a bond with Eijirou. This ritual ignites heat in the both of them, and the Dominion’s council expects Katsuki to not only survive it, but to bare its consequences.

    Summary

    Eijiro Kirishima is facing an academic death sentence.
    With the rule of "No pass = No play" hanging over his head, he has until 8:00 AM to turn in a comprehensive calculus thesis or lose his rugby scholarship completely. Desperate, he tracks down Bakugou, the campus's notoriously brilliant student, who is hidden away in the back stacks of the university library.

    Kirishima expects to bargain with cash or favors.
    But Katsuki Bakugou doesn't take his favors in cash.

    He tells himself he's just "taking one for the team," but is it really one for the team if he can't take it?

    Summary

    He spent six years in captivity, experiencing the horrors of humankind.

    Katsuki just wanted to go north to find his family again, to let them know he's still alive. Kirishima finds him and promises to get him there after the winter thaws. That's it.

    It was supposed to be temporary. But somewhere along the way, the water changes. A place where mers are safe. Where younglings are raised in the open. Where humans don't hunt. A place where no one is kept unless they choose to stay.

    Katsuki doesn't trust it, doesn't trust the humans. He definitely doesn't trust the way his body reacts: to the water, to the others...to Kirishima. Because if it is just instinct, he can leave.

    Right?

    Summary

    Hermes darted down on impulse.

    “Wait! I think I can help you out,” he offered, stopping just before the apparition.

    This wasn't any different than helping a stranded shepherd or traveler, right? He answered their prayers all the time. This was just another lost soul, literally. He wasn’t infringing any boundaries by doing this. Probably.
