Summary
Kate Sharma lives by rules—carefully constructed ones designed to keep her safe from repeating the biggest mistake of her life.
Anthony Bridgerton treats rules like obstacles to be charmingly negotiated.Unfortunately for both of them, they also have a joint university initiative, a syllabus they cannot agree on, and a frankly alarming amount of unresolved academic (and sexual) tension.
The more they work together, the harder it becomes to ignore the spark they’ve been pretending wasn’t there from their very first contentious email. And when one perfect, catastrophic moment pushes them over the edge, Kate and Anthony have to decide whether their rules are keeping them safe…or keeping them from exactly what they want.
A slow-burn academic rivals-to-lovers romance about rules, rebuilding, trust, and the courage to try again.

Summary
After leaving Szarr Entertainment in the wake of a tumultuous - deliberately engineered - scandal, Astarion Ancunín has rebuilt his acting career, from the blacklisted ground up. Through a heavily doctored narrative of queer reclamation, he's finally making a name for himself, and hoping to claim prestige (and maybe a few awards) through the leading role in a historical biopic about the openly gay elven oracle, Aerthwyn Capaxath.
The only problem is, Aerthwyn Capaxath is the worst person that ever lived (or died). Just ask Dr. Rosalie Frostsong, a thoroughly unwilling expert on the subject.

when one world ends (the other worlds keep spinning) by FairytalesOfForever

Summary
The love was there. It wasn't enough to save Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood, or revert their world, or prevent their tragedy. Nonetheless, it was there, and it has a much further-reaching influence than one might expect.
(Basically, Jonmartin and the Fears do not make the journey between somewheres in one piece, but those many pieces get a whole lot of mileage and make all the difference).

Summary
'Youth. A funny notion. People spoke of it as if it were liberation, as though a childhood unscarred were anything but a luxury granted to the protected. But youth was never the freedom people pretended it was. January knew it simply meant operating with incomplete information, and fewer tools.
She had been young, once. That was indictment enough.'
January is not one given to reminiscence, though she is always half looking back.
Written for the Fallen London fic swap 2025.

Black Coffee Crème Brûlée by Somm

Summary
Higuruma did his best to be subtle about his staring, but he did enjoy tracing the odd lines and whorls of discolored scars on Nanami’s face and neck with his eyes. The most he knew was that Nanami was in an explosion of some kind. He was not a soldier, firefighter, or convicted arsonist (he’d Googled). And that whoever had done his reconstructive surgeries had either loved their job or loved the man himself with how carefully they’d put him back together.
Higuruma really wanted to know what those scars felt like, oddly enough—purely out of his own sick curiosity, of course, but he would never ask. His favorite flaw he could find was how the corner of his mouth on the left side was twisted into a permanent ghost of a smile, which hardly suited the finance professor and entertained Higuruma to no end.

Summary
Cozy autumn/Halloween themed fluffy monster romance story with dark academia vibes. Contemporary setting.
Dr Áine Rohan is an anxious, disorganised, self-professed goth and history nerd who has just relocated to take a dream position as a research fellow and lecturer at Harome University in Willow Vale, a town with the biggest multispecies population in the West Midlands. Unlucky in love, Áine considers herself ‘romantically inept,’ but quickly finds herself nursing a serious crush on the taciturn minotaur man working alongside her in the Faculty of Classics. The stern professor’s behaviour leads Áine to believe that her feelings are unrequited, but as the two get to know one another, she finds she may have been mistaken.
Not set within the exact Cambric Creek world by C.M. Nascosta but heavily inspired by this series, and by Morning Glory Milking Farm and Blue Ribbon Romance specifically.
