Summary
“Honestly, at this point, if someone wants to date me or fuck me, they’re going to be required to present me with a four-page paper, double-spaced, MLA citations, on how they’re not going to break my heart or waste my time, respectively."
Camilla makes a statement. Palamedes follows through on the request. The resulting misunderstandings really should be expected.Bookmarked by hexenjunge

Summary
His body feels strange. There had been many scenarios vivid in his mind when he had woven his Teleportation spell with shaking fingers, but he finds himself realizing that somehow, all of them had included Caleb putting his hands on Essek’s shoulders.
Caleb, concerned and serious, a tenseness to his brow as he reinforces his wards and asks Essek if he was followed. Caleb, frustration in the set of his jaw, asking Essek why he had not come sooner. Caleb, soft-mouthed, guiding him to the closest chair.
When the room instead is quiet and dark, and then keeps staying quiet and dark, he finds it suddenly difficult to keep standing.

Summary
"I regret that I can't be here with you more," Essek began, talking firmly over Caleb's automatic protests, "and I know that as much as our arrangement is … acceptable, in the Empire, I feel as though we have held ourselves constrained by standards that are not our own." He hesitated for a moment and pulled back, so that he could meet Caleb's eyes. Caleb nodded for him to continue. "I talked to the archmage. Astrid."
Essek knows that Caleb doesn't like to sleep alone.

Summary
“I think,” Caleb says, slow and measured, as though he's thought about this for a long time, “I've had enough of going through every day like I'm about to die, because I'm not. Not anymore. Now, I… I think I would like to live.”
[In which the new Archmage of Civil Influence, her sole annex, the former Shadowhand of the Kryn Dynasty, and a weary transmutation professor at Soltryce Academy knit themselves back together, hand in unlovable hand.]

Summary
---
Essek watches, transfixed by the tiefling, as he takes his hand to his lips for a brief kiss across his knuckles, the sharp talons kept away in an easy motion.
“I don’t think I’ve ever met a drow properly before,” he says, relinquishing his hand and bowing with a flourish, “It’s a pleasure, Mr. Essek. I’m Molly, but I’m sure you’ve gathered that.”
“The pleasure is all mine,” Essek replies, falling back on his manners even if he’s sure he looks bewildered. Most people from this side of the Ashkeeper Peaks don’t smile like that at the prospect of meeting someone from his folk.
---
In which Mollymauk comes back to his body, minus a few memories, at the Blooming Grove. Essek is intrigued. Caleb is glad.

Summary
Essek goes home, and there is no one waiting at his door. This should be some manner of relief. But his towers haven't felt like a safe haven for a long time now, long before errant scourgers appeared to harass him with strange questions. He misses the immediacy of that threat, prefers it over the slow and indulgent terror of whatever punishment is coming for him, someday soon.
He tells himself that he misses only that, the simplicity of being unsafe in the company of predators, and that he does not miss the company itself.
(In which a pair of scourgers shows up at Essek’s doorstep and saves him from himself.)

Summary
Caleb strides up the path to the little house tucked into a quiet, inconspicuous corner of Port Damali.
This is the first time he’s come to visit without teleporting directly into the sitting room. He dithers outside for two minutes and fifty-seven seconds – he feels rather silly, but he wants to do this properly. Beneath his current disguise of shabbily clad tiefling, he is wearing a stylish coat after the fashions of Rosohna, dark blue lined with dove gray, and a new shirt and trousers carefully tailored to his measurements. He takes a deep breath and tucks his hair behind his ears, fingers tightening around the bouquet of bright yellow sunflowers he’s clutching like a lifeline.
[Or: an attempt is made to court the former Shadowhand of the Kryn Dynasty.]

Summary
When Bren Aldric Eremendrud was a boy, whenever he felt small or lonely, he’d look up at the stars, wondering if there was life up there. Turns out, he was looking in the wrong direction. When alien life entered our world it was from the deep beneath the Lucidian Ocean, a fissure between two tectonic plates. A portal between the dimensions, a breach.
To fight the Kaiju wreaking havoc on the world, mankind created monsters of their own. The Jaeger Program was implemented. Jaeger. Zemnian for hunter. Monsters designed to put these otherworldly abominations back in their place.
One pilot couldn’t handle the neural load to pilot the Jaegers alone, so a two pilot system was implemented, one on the left side, one on the right. The two pilots had to link their minds to work in perfect synchronous harmony to ensure that the mechs could run properly. With technology being advanced from cooperation and a worldwide ceasefire to stop this problem, the Pan Lucidian Defense Corps was born.

Summary
Jimin understands, suddenly, why Hoseok wants to see Elysium. At the same time, nerves writhe in his stomach. "Does Hades know about this?"
Hoseok hesitates.
"No. But he never mentioned that I couldn't see other parts of his land. This is my third year here and this...." He gestures to Styx and onward, towards the palace, dejected. "This is all I have seen."
"Forgive me, Your Majesty, but I don't understand. Wouldn't you want your husband to take you?"
Hoseok blinks, as if it takes a second for the word husband to register. When it does, his face frosts over. His hands clench into fists. Each word that pours out of his mouth is hateful and deliberate, stark and disgusted. "That man," he breathes, "is not my husband."
((Or: When Hoseok, the God of Spring, is kidnapped by Hades and forced to live in the Underworld for half of every year, his once bright world becomes dark—especially when Hades is convinced he'll fall in love with him someday.
Instead, Hoseok falls in love with Jimin, Hades' ferryman with severed wings and responsible for delivering souls across the River Styx.))

“One Jeongguk music video and you’d be eating your words, you know,” Seokjin says matter-of-factly. “There is good yet to be discovered, Jimin-ah, and it’s got a six pack and dimples.”
Jimin huffs, mouth quirking in amusement. He stretches his feet, assuming a ballet arch, toes two sharp points. To the room at large, he says, “It’s cute that you think I know who that is. Not on my radar, never will be.”

Summary
"He doesn't seem okay," Jimin notes, several long gracefully curling strands falling forward as he cranes his head in front of Taehyung's face to get a better look.
"He's fine. He's just a little shaken by your dick," Jin tells him without an ounce of shame, and Taehyung has the presence of mind to cut his eyes sharply in his direction.
"Ahhhh," Jimin hums appreciatively, turning back to Taehyung and fluttering his long lashes. "Well that's okay, honey. Lots of people are shaken by my dick. Granted, it's usually inside of them at the time."
(AU where supposedlystraightboy!tae falls for a pretty drag queen named Minnie and has a pretty chill questioning of his sexuality)
