Summary
Single dad Marlin slowly starts falling for his sons new swim coach.
A month had passed, and the swim lessons had become a cherished routine. The chilly spring evenings had given way to the warm embrace of summer. As Marlin packed their bags, Nemo chattered away about the new tricks he'd learned and the friends he'd made. Marlin couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort in the familiarity of it all.
They pulled into the Dolphin Dive's parking lot, the low sun casting a warm glow over the buildings. The sound of children's laughter and the smell of chlorine grew stronger as they approached the pool.
"Marlin! Nemo!" Coach Gill's voice boomed across the poolside, his smile as wide as the ocean. "How are my favorite father-son duo today?"
Marlin couldn't help but feel a jolt of excitement at the greeting. He'd noticed over the weeks that Gill had a way of making each child feel special, but there was something about the way he said their names that felt more personal. "Good, thanks," Marlin called back, his own smile genuine.

Summary
Contrary to belief, the Endless did not know all. They were not the most powerful beings in the universe. They existed to serve the world they were born into by Time and Night. Time and Night, who in turn, only existed by a wave of the hand by the Creator - when the universe was born.
What was known was that Lucifer and Michael were fated to fight until the end of days - the war between the silver city and Hell constant and ruthless. However, it was not fought directly by them - but by their cohorts... demons for Lucifer and Nephilims for angels.
Nephilims were feral beings, no better than demons - only marked with grace and wings instead of blackness and horns. Creatures that were vicious and ravenous - feasting on the blood and essence of their enemies.
The Endless did not know everything, but even Dream knew that it was best to never meet a Nephilim without a muzzle... and better yet, it was best to not cross the considered leader of the Nephilim, the only female - Mikayla.
But as said before... the Endless... Dream did not know everything. He did know duty. He did not know her.

Summary
Although she hears it constantly, Death knows it's not truly her fault when mortals' time comes to pass. She may help ferry them, but she does not kill them - not truly. She may help with the circumstances, she may help nudge them, but she doesn't murder anyone. Her function was the most natural part of every mortal's life. She took joy in her function.
Which would never change. Shouldn't change.
Except it does. All of it does. Everything comes falling down and apart when it's not Dream that's taken by Roderick but Death. And it's Death who suffers his hospitality, and it's Death who is faced with a choice every week to let a man die or save Randall.
Every day, she's called a murderer. Death is not... she won't... but perhaps for Roderick and company, when she is free, she'll make an exception... and she's certain she'll take quite a bit of joy from it.

Fuckboi Dream Was Forced To Experience The Mortifying Ordeal Of Being Alive And All He Got Was This Stupid Husband (by Fall Out Boy) by dancinbutterfly for Avelera

Summary
"If you don't stop me, I'm going to keep you," Hob murmurs into his ear, holding him tight through the spasms of his laughter. "You mad, ludicrous, delightful, gorgeous slut. I think you might be exactly what I've been looking for, for a very long time."
It starts when Desire drags his ass out to a fetish party in Brixton when he would rather have been tucked safely away in his studio. It starts with a few hits of MDMA, an unwise promise, and a conversation over heard in the smoking section. It starts with a man named Robert who smiles like the sun, takes him in hand and takes him a part, one piece at a time.
Look, Dream knows he's a mess, in almost every way, but he just came out to Torture Garden to ostensibly have a good time. He didn't intend to have every aspect of his existence turned upside down, inside out, and unraveled. Yet here he fucking is.

Summary
A booming, keening shriek pierced the air. It froze over.
Shamil’s head shot up. It wasn’t his own. It was loud and disturbed, echoing as if it shook the mountain itself. Pain became a background noise as a rare feeling of fear coiled tight in his chest. Weirdly enough, his SoulJam pulsed with fervor at the yell, as if calling back to it. It was warm, and vibrating happily, which it’s never done before.
Besides that, he didn’t know what the noise could’ve come from; can’t be a bear, they’re more deep-throated, couldn’t be a bird, their too small–
A bird. A harpy.
OR
Shamil is a poor con-artist who is unknowingly fated to be soulmates with Vanilla, a harpy.

Fair Fortune by Raven_Blanchard

Summary
Tuney Chance would just like to say, for the record, that she is not paid nearly enough to be dealing with this much Bat guano. Wait, no, she's not even getting paid at all!
Which makes it even more annoying.
It was fine when she and Bruce Wayne were kids. Kids tend to be unknowingly suicidal. When Bruce grew up and pulled in another kid into the lifestyle? Okay, yeah, she can deal. What's one more person, right? But then he pulled yet another kid in, then another, then before she knew it, the guy's got a fucking CITY of these kids running about in leotards, throwing themselves into danger every night like it's going out of style. Tuney is so sleep deprived, swear to God, her Gucci eyebags have eyebags.
She decides to confront the man. This is fucking unsustainable. The man needs to stop spreading around his vigilante germs, or Tuney would just about fucking die of exhaustion.
(In which a dimension-traveler-slash-goddess is absolutely DONE with covering Bat asses. Could they not just let her sleep in peace for once?)

Summary
“You cannot help me,” Dream rasps. “Not this time.”
Hob rocks back, furrowing his brow and defies this.
“Begging your pardon, King of Dreams, but I’ll decide what I can or cannot do, thank you,” Hob chides, lifting his brow in soft warning.
Or the one where Hob steals yarn, fights an old (immortal) lady and accidentally messes everything up fantastically. (but in a good way). [And the author's frantic attempt to make better sense of the horrible mess of Season 2 Vol 2]
