Summary
Pedro is nobody important. He is a broke boy from San Telmo, working in a bar, speaking the wrong languages, and trying to survive a life that has never offered him much tenderness. Then one night, Emmanuel Macron walks into his world, and everything begins to change.
What follows is not a fairy tale but a secret life built on distance, desire, class difference, shame, and the dangerous imbalance between being loved and being kept. Pedro is taken from Buenos Aires to Paris, hidden in elegant rooms he does not know how to inhabit, learning French word by word while waiting for a man who belongs more to history, power, and the public than he will ever belong to Pedro.
As their relationship deepens, fractures, and turns cruel in all the ways love can, Pedro is forced to ask what he is to the President of France: a lover, a weakness, a mistake, a passing refuge, or something far more difficult to name. Around them, politics keeps moving, and so do the people closest to power. Gabriel Attal and Stéphane Séjourné circle through the same world with their own history of ambition, loyalty, loss, and desire, reminding Pedro that love near power is never simple, and never private.

Summary
In this alternative universe, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov grew up both in Canada, on the same street, in the same school and rink, on the same first peewee team.
Ilya Rozanov is the youngest son of Russian General and Diplomat Grigoryevich Rozanov. At five, he’s confused as to why they have to leave Russia, but everyone knows better than to voice an opinion in his house. So he packs his things and hopes Canada doesn’t suck too much and he can play hockey. And maybe his Mama will be happier there. If only that annoying Canadian kid would stop being so...sunshiny.
Shane Hollander is the only son of Canadian David Hollander and Japanese Yuna Hollander, and he speaks both languages fluently. He adores hockey and he adores his country. He loves Wilbrod Street because everyone looks different and speaks different here, so he never stands out and there's always new friends to be made. And he thinks he might also adore the new boy his age that just moved in across the street.
On/off, Russia/Canada, always in between.
They still find their way back to each other, across years and border lines.Series

Summary
Antigua es una ciudad de piedra, oraciones y sombras antiguas. Como heredera del Faro, la vida de Alicent Hightower se rige por una disciplina de hierro y la devoción a los Siete. Pero cuando su flota regresa del Este, no trae solo especias y seda; trae una ofrenda que desafía toda lógica.
Una mujer de cabellos de plata y ojos de amatista, una belleza Valyria que no conoce cadenas y cuya lengua Alicent no puede comprender. Sin embargo, en el silencio de sus aposentos, las palabras no son necesarias. El aroma de la extraña —miel silvestre y fuego— despierta en Alicent un instinto Alfa que ninguna oración ha logrado sofocar.
Alicent cree que ha recibido un regalo. Lo que no sabe es que ha dejado entrar a la tormenta que reducirá su mundo a cenizas.

Summary
Within the recesses of a dense forest came the booming echo of a beast's dying cry. Running through the jungle, a pack of Sentinels race towards their next meal. But one pack member comes across a sole survivor amongst the wreckage. From there, he forms a new bond and welcomes a new member to the pack. Perhaps she could even become more than a packmate?
-
A loud bang goes off as a plane crashes into the forest below. The sole survivor, a young woman who stumbles from the wreckage, finds herself waking up to the sight of an unfamiliar drone. Dressed in feathers and furs and wearing a sentinel skull as a mask, his frame so animalistic in nature. And the only way to make it back home, to survive, is for her to go running with the Sentinels.

In a desperate bid to secure the resources her kingdom needs, Queen Tara arranged for the kidnapping of Rosario and his subsequent marriage to her daughter - Princess Sarah.

Summary
A Rocky POV of Project Hail Mary, but add in a sprinkle of originally named astrophages, petrova lines, and extra, extra worldbuilding.
***
One day, his strumming was not answered.
The silence that answered his one verse of song was horrible and grating. Incomplete. Empty. A sick, horrible fear built up inside him.
(He was going to die out here. Alone.)

Summary
Some things, it turns out, are easier to admit in the wrong language.
In Spanish, in Dutch, in words that feel just distant enough to be safe, you can admit truths you'd never dare to say in English. Because it doesn't count if you don't say it in English, right?

Summary
Hot Rod wonders if he's cursed by something he did in a previous life. Normal mechs don’t have to deal with the slag he gets put through—namely getting stranded on a Quintesson-occupied planet with no means of contacting home, encountering strange, mutilated Cybertronians seemingly built just to kill Quints, and being ordered to babysit said strange, mutilated Cybertronians.
All of this is to say that everything currently wrong with Hot Rod’s life can be attributed to the stray that followed him home: one maybe-empurata victim calling himself “Thunderclash”.
-
Before the Kaiju came to Earth, Thunderclash used to dream of being an astronaut, and after the longest two decades of his life, his boyhood dream has somehow come to fruition.
Sure, it’s been a bit more fraught than he’d imagined as a kid—what with him piloting a mecha instead of a rocket, helping giant robotic aliens fight off Kaiju, and dealing with a language barrier that has resulted in said aliens mistaking him for being one of them—but Thunderclash wouldn't give it up for the world.
Besides, with Hot Rod guiding him through these unfamiliar stars, Thunderclash thinks that everything'll turn out fine.

Summary
Scott Goldsmith did not expect to wake up in his coffin.
He did not expect to rest at all.
Least of all did he expect to awaken to a world that's all but forgotten his existence.Scott now seeks to reinstate his rein of power, but unable to function in the modern world, he relies on two humans who are some of the few people who can still understand him.
---Or,
After six hundred years languages tend to adapt and change, a fact that Scott Goldsmith is not ready to face.
Scott wakes in a world that is foreign to him.
His castle is gone, town destroyed, and he now finds himself among Oakhurst's residents, none of whom can understand the long dead language of the ancient vampire.
Nobody except two residents who very conveniently studied latin.
