Summary
She had let go of everything else; hope of a retrieval, hope of an apology, hope of seeing her sisters or her son again. It would be enough to know. She did not have to do anything with the knowledge. Ulis would understand. Surely he would.
"To the best of your knowledge, Othala— is the Archduke Maia alive and safe?”
Thara Celehar stared at her for a very long moment, his grip on her trembling fingers very firm. Then he said;
“Sister— he is.”

Summary
Long story short, after the Tekken anime, I have been even more motivated into remaking my entire 1st season of my Tekken: Redemption story. I hope you all enjoy, because like Street Fighter, this is a passion project of mine and this one has found its beginnings in 2015.
The first season will be very straight forward and expect some really neat appearances along the way, as we move along with Jin's journey into finding personal redemption for himself and putting his family drama to rest.

Caught between hatred and desire, vengeance and longing, they are thrust back into each other’s orbit. But as Syndicate wars flare anew, and secrets threaten to come to light, Hermione must face the truth. She did not only erase their love, she destroyed the man Draco once was.

Summary
The Deep Space Federation, threatened on two fronts by the Dominion-Cardassian alliance and Edward Janeway's authoritarian Terran Union, is barely hanging on by a thread and desperately needs new allies. Kathryn Janeway and her friends Julian Bashir, Jadzia Dax and Garak have been recruited by Starfleet Intelligence and are about to be sent on a covert mission to win Romulan support for the Federation. Meanwhile, Phoebe Janeway attempts to undermine her father's regime from within and Will Riker must battle his demons to combat the potentially more serious threat of the Dominion in the Gamma Quadrant.
~*~
This is the final multi-chapter instalment of this series. This story is a heavily canon-divergent, plot-driven story with plenty of Janeway/Riker romance. Also featuring: ‘In the Pale Moonlight’ Janeway-style, Romulan trickery and triple-bluffing, and a Janeway family showdown. The angst is less heavy than the previous entry, but we’re still in the middle of the Dominion War, so nobody is having an easy time.

Summary
"Humans persist in dreaming of salvation and affirmation and a new liberator. Yet when all other saviours have been nailed to trees and stoned on the city squares, then the last Messiah shall come."
7 years before All Might saw the spark of true heroism in one Izuku Midoryia, 8 years before the future hero received One For All and set foot in UA High school, in those last years of All for Ones' rule over the criminal underworld of Japan, a political radical published a collection of ideological essays. In it - their critiques of the hero society and it's obsession with strong quirks.
There was no revolution, there was no great shift in Japanese society. Or, perhaps, not one that the future generation of Heroes would see.
Only when Izuku Midoryia took those first steps and realized the legacy that has been trust on his shoulders did it become clear - the world was growing beyond clashes between Heroes and Villains.

Summary
Matt Decker and Jim Kirk take on their first doomsday weapon as captain and first officer. The incident is but the first step in their two-pronged journey to their many meetings with the fates, as it complicates the family crises both men are facing. But the journey has barely started when they realize that more intriguing things are occurring behind closed doors, threatening to skewer both their careers.
Kirk paused and tilted his head. The old philosophy of "attack and be damned" crossed his mind: it had given him a leg up with the Dimidians, he and his compatriots had carried the day, and now he found that he was not at all afraid of what would happen if he told the truth.

Summary
Jhin is know for crimes that are performances which turn cities into spectacles and people into works of art, all directed by him: a mysterious man behind a mask. With the help of his partner, a fellow killer who prefers to lurk in the shadows, keeping would-be meddlers from disrupting Jhin’s work, they have terrorized and inspired many over the years, granting them considerable influence and occasionally scoring Jhin a few “toys”. Their system worked well, but eventually, Jhin would slip, killing a woman he hadn’t intended to kill, thus setting the stage for his anonymity to be lost to a crime-fighting duo with the rage of grief and the power to weaponize a military arsenal against him. It was rather inconvenient to say the least.
With previously unknown enemies from his past on his heels, Jhin must attempt to set things right without compromising what he already has. Ever loyal, Pyke will do what he can to help, but that help could only go so far in dealing with all of Jhin's enemies. Luckily, his new acquisition: a scrawny painter boy with an interesting domination kink, doesn’t seem to carry any unwanted baggage that could come back to haunt Jhin, and also seems oddly capable of helping out.
