    Summary

    The world expected the Avatar to awaken alone.
    It didn’t account for her—a girl who refuses to let him face the world unprepared.

    From the moment Aang is freed from the iceberg, he isn’t navigating a war-torn world by himself. At his side is a fiercely protective companion, far too perceptive for her own good—someone who knows far more about the balance of power than she lets on.

    She is not the Avatar.

    But she commands air, water, earth, and fire like she was born to it—and she refuses to let the last airbender carry the weight of the world unguarded.

    She finds herself caught in a different kind of conflict.

    Because somewhere across enemy lines, a banished prince becomes fixated—not just on capturing the Avatar, but also on the girl who stands beside him. And the feeling is… dangerously mutual.

    He can’t stop thinking about the girl at his side—the one who meets his anger with a steady gaze, who doesn’t flinch, who looks at him like she already understands him.

    A retelling of Avatar: The Last Airbender where destiny shifts, loyalties blur, and the line between enemy and ally burns hotter than either of them expect

    Summary

    After months of being cooped up on the journey to Earth, everyone’s nerves were a little frayed despite their eventful arrival. Clive and Jason were bickering in the cloud palace again. And for once, Zara couldn’t squash her comment. It was just so obvious. “Will you two just fuck already?”

    “What?” Their unison response was almost as comical as the way they danced around each other. She gave them a pointed look. Jason looked to Belinda who shrugged with a twist of her lips in sad agreement.

    Turning back to her, Jason appealed to Zara, “I thought we had a thing?” He gestured back and forth between himself and Zara.

    She sighed. “You can have more than one thing, Jason. You of all people know that. You’ve got more things than you can juggle most of the time.”

    The utter betrayal running across his face would’ve been comical if he didn’t look like he actually meant it this time.

    “Clive’s only love is to the system.”

    Summary

    Is the stranger very, very attractive? Yes.

    Is he sitting right next to - apparently - the only plug in this entire cafe? Also yes.

    Does Jisung have a very much dying laptop, with an important assignment? Of course he does, it's Jisung we're talking about.

    Or ... That summaries it pretty well actually, enjoy!

    Summary

    Essentially just following the plot of the game and romance with Astarion with a few personal tweaks. Astarion feels the sun on his face for the first time in 200 years and has to befriend some of the strangest people he's ever met in order to survive. He meets Masmalta (The named female tiefling TAV), and sets about earning her trust the best way he knows how: By lying. He refuses to get attached.. even if she is nice.. even if she drew him a portrait..

    Masmalta finds Astarion first when falling out of the Nautaloid. She only has one goal: To get back to her baby brother, who she is the primary caregiver for. And she finds herself becoming attached to some of the weirdest individuals she has ever met.

    Summary

    Patina (noun): a gloss or sheen on a surface resulting from age or polishing; the quiet mark left by repeated moments, a subtle change that builds over time, like the trace left on a heart by noticing someone again and again.

    ***

    Lovro works at a thrift store, he looks cool, he goes home. Simple.

    Then Ivan walks in.

    Lovro tells himself that it’s nothing, that it’s a trifle for customers to come and go.

    Yet, what bothers Lovro the most is that he isn’t exactly sure why he keeps noticing the guy.

    Summary

    Seven units. Private lottery. No pity system.

    Idia Shroud can handle bad drop rates. What he can’t handle is his online mutual escalating the situation by introducing an unknown variable: his SON.

    "He... has a son?!"

    Meanwhile, Silver is just trying to help his father with an errand.

    Incredibly forced PvP, dramatic irony, and the worst possible overlap between gacha hell and reality. This is... probably worse than any boss Idia's ever faced.

    Summary

    Hallo Hello Hallo Hi ~ I’m delusional and believe that my self-inserted fic (turned x-reader) will be able to grace all your screens and make your heart flutter. I’m greedy and also can’t have just one love-interest — so for the sake of the plot and my own self-indulgence I’ve created this One-Piece saga where we can share in all of my anime-men crushes at once. Zoro is peak (which is why I bully him). But don’t worry, Sanji, Ace and even Law have their moments. (There are plans for some villains as well teehee)
    Lots of diversion from the canon. Just let me cook with this. Also this is post-time skip Straw Hats (but where Ace does not become a donut for example). Original characters inserted too wink wink. I can’t add too many to tags for spoiler reasons. Fluff, drama, angst, and of course smut tucked in there <3
    Yes our (Y/N) is unrealistically balancing all these hearts. Yes I bent the rules a lot in terms of the canon, but I live for my own version of One Piece! If you’re interested in a longer fic that doesn’t rush anything (fr fr I write like true one-piece pacing), then please get cozy and enjoy! 
    (First chapter is like a mini epilogue - it'll give you a better summary I promise)

    Summary

    “Oh, I’m already cursed.” With a shrill laugh, Scylla inches her face closer to Melinoë’s until their noses touch and their breaths mingle with one another. “Save your breath now, lady, ‘cause tonight you’re gonna drown.

    Then, then, Scylla sinks her teeth into her throat through the patch of skin she exposed when she skewered through her neck brace with her microphone.

    A sickening crunch follows, and then a gurgle as Melinoë chokes on her own blood.

    —OR—

    If there is one thing Melinoë knows about Almighty Chaos without a shadow of a doubt is that their whims are unpredictable and often nonsensical.

    And thus, after losing to Scylla whilst still bearing their mark, Melinoë finds out just how unpredictable they can truly be, as well as a glimpse of who Scylla once was.
