Summary
“Remind me to thank him next time I see him. Once that bill is passed into law, I’ll be the first in line to inquire for a divorce.”
“What for?”
“Don’t you recall? I’m married.”

England, 1923
Four years after the Great War ended, Harry Styles lives contentedly at the tender age of 26. He’s one of the first and only Omega shopkeepers to own and manage a business in London, and he is surrounded by devoted friends and clients who all seem to be in dramatic romantic quarrels or blissfully joyful engagements.
Parliament is about to pass a law that makes the divorce process less daunting for Omegas like Harry. This news prompts him to reconsider his union with an Alpha he had married almost nine years ago, but had since lost all connection with.
In desperate need to return to his husband’s good graces to undergo a divorce without vexation, their reconnection unravels the tension of their impassive union and uncovers the harrowing truth of why they lived so long in each other’s shadow and silence.Or the one where Harry and Louis are estranged husbands in a decade-long relationship and fall in love again too late into it.

Summary
Thomas the Tank Engine is a calm world… until you wake up reborn as (Iron) Phoenix, a brand new engine with little or no clue, too much steam, and a knack for surviving teasing engines, impossible schedules, and very judgmental coaches. Somehow, you have to learn the ropes of Sodor's very own North Western Railway itself, keep your firebox from exploding, and figure out if anyone has ever taught engines about basic self preservation, and all while wondering how much trouble one rookie engine can actually cause.
And also, how do you make sure you don't die (again, maybe? Did you even die?) too soon as (Iron) Phoenix?
{Just as a disclaimer, this is based on both canons with all their retcons that came with them!}

Summary
Euan MacGillivray came home from one war to inherit another. His estate is dying, blighted by a decay that starves the fields and bleeds his coffers dry. His only solution is the axe, to sell the ancient heartwood of Alder Stone to pay its debts.
Unfortunately for him, the land isn't empty. Something guards it. Coira is the Glaistig, the 'Grey Lady' of local myth made flesh and fury. Bound to the soil for centuries, she is the land's weeping heart, stony protector, and its vengeful spirit.
Poison creeping from the sea saps her strength. And the new Laird's axe threatens her sacred groves. To save their home, a soldier who believes in nothing and a distrustful guardian must forge a new pact. One that will either heal the scarred Highlands, or unravel them both.

She sees enough to know better and decides to look not too closely.As their connection deepens through music, work and conversation, curiosity becomes something far more dangerous. What forms between them is built on what is noticed and what is left unspoken.
A slow-burn story about control, awareness and choice.
Where love is not redemption and staying is a decision. -

“Think of it this way, my dear– wouldn’t you rather have the assistance of a man who’s informed about this wonderful city?”
They narrowed their eyes, but the radio host’s charming smile simply widened.
“Civilians should not be involved in investigating criminal cases.”
“Oh, but Agent…” Alastor paused, his gaze glinting faintly behind his round glasses. “I’m already involved.”

Summary
Gypsy wisdom teaches that fate is something that lurks in every decision, in every glance at the stars, in every sound that seems to resonate in the heart. They say that fate is not something permanent, but a dance between free will and inevitability.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if Thomas had met his first love before he went to fight in the war?
Maybe history would have turned out differently... when he meets Lauren Witergon in his life.

Summary
“就是这场雨把他跟Dean分开的。命运让他和Dean降生于同一个世界，同一个时代，同一个家庭，同一位母亲，同一个子宫。

【黑帮出身律师Sam/卧底黑帮探员Dean】
你将看到：一人三层马甲，以及它们被剥落的全过程Intro
阳光版：23岁的新人控方律师Sam Wesson从法院上头接到一起案子，他要搜集一个名叫Dean Smith的枪行老板的罪证，好给他安个逃税的罪名送进大牢。Sam的直觉告诉他——好吧不用直觉，Smith先生快把“我是黑帮成员”写在他那张对男人来说太过漂亮的脸上了。可喜可贺，要不了多久Sam就会发现，对于一个黑帮头目来说，Dean似乎好得有些过头了。各种意义上。
阴暗版：Sam Morningstar是个聪明人。他以为自己可以如母亲生前所愿，彻底逃离他厌恶的阴暗世界。他还太过年轻时就站在堂皇的屋檐下见证过这一切：古巴雪茄的烟雾与不该留存于市的金色烈酒气味充斥鼻腔，随后是枪口发白的闪光与激烈的爆炸声响。待火药味散去，只剩鲜血干涸在精美的墙纸和手工地毯上。
哪怕微不足道，Sam也想用自己找到的正义与之对抗。他如何知道，前方在等待的是自己尘封的血缘身世，某人悲惨的命运抉择，以及一份美好到极致、又迫切到极致的爱。 -

Summary
A member of the “Black Shirts” in the early 1920’s, he trudged alongside his fellow soldiers and shouted all the various sayings and phrases. His salutes were sharp, but not true within his heart. He doesn’t enjoy drawing attention to himself, more often than not he blends in well with the others around him to avoid any kind of suspicion. The reason for that being Il Duce, Benito Mussolini, whom he abhors. Vincenzo feigns fascism and nationalism, the only place where he’s able to be his true self is within the bounds of his mind. Additionally, he keeps a diary. It’s one of the only other things–secondary to his thoughts–that keeps his head on straight. If it were to be discovered by anybody, then that would be his last day standing.

Summary
No thing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.— Percy Bysshe Shelley
It is a great loss, to have a bastion of such knowledge be burnt to ashes.
Better to have these things journaled, than to rot in my memory, forever untouched.
Russian Republic felt drawn to visit the palace he once called home. Stumbling into the library, he found himself comfortable in his now-dead mother's private corner, and found a peculiar book. Supposedly one of a single poetry by an Englishman, yet looked more thicker than it should be. Though it felt rude to intrude, it was only then that he realised the true nature of the white leather-bound book. It was a diary, Russian Empire's diary to be exact.
(Or, Russian Republic finds Russian Empire's diary.)
