Summary
✦ ✦ ✦
It is almost amusing that I once believed myself immune to his influence.
I had supposed that Vulcan discipline would be sufficient to shield me from the charisma that so readily bent others toward him.
I miscalculated.
Of all who served under his command, none was more altered by him than I.
✦
✦ ✦ ✦
In the final years of his life, Ambassador S’chn T’gai Spock undertook a project unlike any other: a personal account dedicated to James Tiberius Kirk. Long preserved in the Vulcan Archives and published here for the first time, these writings reveal not the legend history remembers, but the man as seen through Spock’s eyes. Part diary, part memoir, and part testament, this incomplete manuscript bears witness to a bond that defies easy definition. More than comrades-in-arms, more than colleagues, Kirk and Spock forged a devotion that shaped the destiny of the Federation and left an indelible mark on each of their lives.

Summary
Harry Potter is sick of losing at chess, and at watching Ron gloat about it.
Draco Malfoy, of all people, offers to teach him strategy.
What starts as lessons over a chessboard turns into something Harry never expected: banter, grudging respect, and maybe even desire.
Because sometimes the winning move isn’t on the board at all.

Summary
"I overheard you and Blaise on the train the other day. Why do you spend your Wednesdays and Sundays with me, playing a game you openly despise and don’t even know how to play?”
“I’ve come to enjoy your company. If that means sitting through a game I don’t like, just to watch you light up when you win, then so be it. I like seeing you excited. I like…” His voice faltered “…Merlin, Ronald, it’s like you haven’t even noticed I like you.”

Summary
I had many ideas for these types of stories ever since I started writing "Flourishing with You," but couldn't quite turn them into full stories. So, I've gone with the alternative: making them all into short one-shots and stuffing them into a single work!
Enjoy the silly 1900s men being silly. :D

Summary
Harry Potter is sick of losing at chess to Ron Weasley.
Draco Malfoy is sick of everyone underestimating him.
Somehow, this ends with Harry learning strategy, Draco getting flustered, and Ron regretting every smug word he’s ever spoken.
It was supposed to be about beating Ron.
It wasn’t supposed to be about Draco.
…Checkmate.

Summary
“I did not go into it that way,” L argues. “But I don’t know what else to think when you’re asked to speculate what God may be like, and you start describing yourself.”
--
He shouldn't even be considering this. But despite knowing the lily may be an omen of death, L is as drawn to the universal appeal of such a pretty, well-loved flower as anyone would be.
(Light's usual patterns have been interrupted, granting L a very unexpected but welcome new understanding of him. He chooses a terrible way to explore his feelings about it, and pays the predictable consequence for taking advantage of a master manipulator.)

Summary
Leona was asleep. He knew that. This was all some fuckin'- fever dream, some exhaustion-and-coffee-fuelled lucid hallucination, his tired brain's way of saying enough.
But damn him, had Eve not gotten to it first, he probably would have been the poor motherfucker to eat that apple and doom humanity. For science. Or whatever.
"Leona Kingscholar," said a voice, booming from the sky, which was everywhere, because Leona was floating in this dreamscape, feet suspended in nothing at all. Leona made an attempt to whirl around to find the source of the voice anyways, which earned him a wild sort of laugh.
Leona dropped from the sky.
"Shit-"

Summary
Sweet little nothings were not, by any means, Leona's style.
Frankly, if someone were to hold Leona close and whisper into his hair about how enchanting his precious emerald eyes were, he would probably throw up. The very thought of it made him nauseous.
"Sevens' sake," Jamil muttered, glaring down at the board between them, fingers twitching restlessly as he attempted to make up his mind. "Don't you just sit here playing yourself all day?"
Leona grinned, leaning forward on an elbow, chin on his palm. "You can just compliment me, y'know," he suggested. "Just tell me I'm good at this."

The Most Inportant Piece Is The Queen by Twilightgirliepop
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
12 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Harry Potter is dead and the most powerful player left on the board is Ron Weasley, however he’s not playing a fair match.
Ron has thought himself the most cunning strategist that the wizarding world has ever seen, yet their war against Voldemort and his death eaters rages on. Even now years after the death of Harry Potter and the disappearance of Hermione Granger, Ron still believes that on his strategy The Order of The Phoenix can win. More and more spectacularly talented magical children are appearing at the age of 11, talents that have never been seen before, time stopping, reality shifting etc and under Ron’s orders Order members are stealing these children from their beds.
Hermione refuses to let more child soldiers join a war that they didn’t ask for. Ron has gone too far and what a clever chess player needs to remember is that the most powerful piece in chess is The Queen and this one has been biding her time to take the throne.

Summary
Chess has never really been enjoyable for Sieun, only ever a means to an end—to play, win, and make his parents proud. It makes him feel nauseous, nearly choking on his own voice as he declares, “Checkmate.”
Waiting move: In chess, a move whose sole purpose is to oblige the opponent to move. Most effective when the opponent has nothing but bad moves.
