Summary
Party Prince Thor visits Jotunheim and discovers that the realm’s nights are shockingly quiet. Bored and restless, he sneaks out of his guest room only to slip on a frozen staircase and end up in Loki’s private chambers. What follows is a long, teasing back-and-forth where Thor learns more about Jotun culture, Loki’s magic, and the history between them. A magically warmed hug, a bottomless beer mug, childhood memories, and accidental flirting lead them into a quiet but unmistakably intimate night.

Summary
"You mean to tell me you've never kissed anyone before?"
Bashir sounded far too curious for Garak's comfort, and already, Garak was regretting his uncharacteristic honesty. Truly, he should have anticipated this — or rather, he should have listened when he did anticipate this, instead of allowing himself to get swept away by — by sentimental fantasies.
Foolish, he thought bitterly, tip of his tail swaying with agitation beneath the table. That you could imagine that Bashir might actually want—
He huffed, shoving aside his frustration, then consciously allowed his jaw to drop open into a vague imitation of a human grin.
"My dear Doctor," Garak said, putting on an air of indulgent good humor as he tipped his snout forwards. "I do not have lips. Why would I make a habit of kissing?" To further remind Bashir of his... inhuman anatomy, he allowed his forked tongue to flick out over the table, just once.

Summary
It should have been an easy enough diplomatic mission for the first year of the Enterprise: respond to the call of a planet entering the space age. But when Spock and Scotty unwittingly befriend a local worker, the crew is forced to confront the realities of the quiet planet.
Kanna has never known equality, but that hasn’t stopped her from believing she is meant for a life beyond petty servitude. When a split-second decision lands her onboard the Enterprise, however, she is forced to reckon with an existence of choices beyond what she had imagined. As she struggles to navigate friendships, romantic attachments, and her own ambitions, the world she left behind never truly leaves her, and she comes to discover that the power to forge her own path is never without consequences.

Summary
One doesn’t expect to be accidentally live a life of a generic character or in this case: as a Pokemon trainer who is supposed to be dead due to dragon Pokemon infighting.
Finding himself to belong to a somewhat ‘normal’ middle-class family and dealing with a Pokemon world which is a unique mix of the games, anime, manga and other sources, he uses his foreknowledge and his Pokemon to conveniently avoid the plot, people and even ends up studying in a school to escape the all possible legendary disasters of other regions in exchange of a lonely life
But a school assignment, through political pressure, forces him to travel to his mother’s hometown until realising that Arceus also has forced him into a protagonist's fate with tragic consequences...My take on a Pokemon Protagonist when they mentally & physically can’t keep up with the story events and have to say ‘No!’ to even survive them. Also includes the conclusion of how geopolitical & legendary disasters of different generations & regions over the years (especially the Kalos Crisis) which culminates into Pokemon ZA’s story and other characters linked to our protagonist in some way or the other...

Anos após um encontro de mentes na Europa, encerrado em silêncio, a advogada Athena Cykes reencontra Nícolas, um músico brasileiro talentoso, porém desiludido, do outro lado do mundo, num bar poeirento em Shinjuku. A melodia do passado mal tem tempo de reacender antes que a realidade os atinja: Osvaldo Viveiros, o lendário mentor de Nícolas, é preso, acusado de incendiar o local onde se apresentaria e, com ele, o próprio legado.
Forçados a formar uma equipe de defesa, Athena e Nícolas mergulham numa conspiração de fraude e plágio que atravessa décadas. Para Athena, é um caso que desafia os limites da sua capacidade de “ouvir o coração” das pessoas. Para Nícolas, é uma dolorosa viagem de volta a um passado que ele tentou enterrar e que o obriga a confrontar os fantasmas da família e da própria identidade artística.
Entre provas, testemunhos e acordes dissonantes, eles precisarão descobrir se a ligação entre eles é forte o suficiente para alcançar a verdade e, quem sabe, compor um futuro juntos. -

But figuring out how to deal with each other, the remnants of the Horde Clones and the Goa’uld threat without a D.H.D. for the Stargate on Etheria? That was new for both.
