Summary
Fushiguro Megumi spent years in college becoming worthy of working at Tokyo Aquarium and Rehabilitation. The top Fin Folk rehabilitation center and Aquarium run by Getou Suguru. Megumi graduates as top of his class, despite the doubt humans cast upon his kind, and the rumors that he didn't earn his grades. Finally, he has landed his dream job, and that's all he cares about.
But when a critically injured Merrow is rescued from poachers and brought to the facility, everything Megumi thought he understood about his work—and himself—begins to shift.
...
The dorsal fin broke the surface first, a sleek, curved blade cutting through the water without a sound. For a heartbeat, that primal recognition of an apex predator made his heart race. The Merrow swam alongside him, matching his pace exactly.Megumi's steps slowed. The Merrow slowed with him.
The Merow followed him all the way to the feeding platform, never breaking the surface fully, never making a sound. When Megumi finally reached the platform and knelt to prepare the feeding mechanism, the Merrow sank back into the depths. But he could still feel it down there, circling in the darkness.
Waiting.

Summary
There was a new scientist in the lab.
Nicholas had fixated on him the moment he entered, wearing a white coat like all the other techs, but sporting a bright red shirt underneath. He stood out among the dull whites and blacks and grays that filled the space beyond the thick glass of Nicholas’s tank. Golden hair and round tinted glasses with eyes that the same shade as the tropical seas Nicholas had once called home behind them. He was a splash of color in an otherwise dull world.

Wolfwood has been an experiment in Conrad's lab for years when a new scientist changes everything.

Summary
Until his father's ship returns, Kakashi is responsible for himself. This isn't the first time he's been left alone but it is the longest, and as the days stretch on, the sea god's fury is not the only storm he's weathering.
A distraction comes in the form of a lucky catch, the biggest bite he's ever gotten on the end of his fishing rode. But when he reels it in, he sees hands and lips, arms no different from his own, and a face that is almost human.
A siren, they say, is a devourer of man.
OR:
Kakashi fishes up a siren. It goes swimmingly.

Summary
A star has faded from the night sky, a light burnt out centuries ago, now reawakened upon the Inpherno. A Sun God, untrusting and cruel to the mortals that have stole from him one too many times, love fading from his heart. Maybe, just maybe, the new star can rekindle what the Sun has lost.
(My take on this whole Pirate/Ocean AU, mostly focused on just the Pirates and this silly God)

DISCLAIMER!!: I don't support Zeal, I don't condone anything that Zeal has done, and my fic is distanced from the creator of the skin, and the roots of its source; and going forward it'll stay that way. This fic is just a Pirate AU of Phighting, an entire world with its own separate lore, worldbuilding, and redesigns to it that will be shared. Thank you for understanding. -

Summary
The hand of fate chose who a person is. Chose the parents, the people around them, country, opportunities. It chose how they were treated, the personality, everything. Everyone has to deal with the circumstances that they were given to them. Rock did. It almost felt like Zero disrupted his fate. Made him into something great when the clay that he made was weak and vulnerable. He needed to prove that he was different from the rest, untouched by all the new trends dumbing down the generations more and more. He is a hunter, an inventor and artist. He, just like his God, changed lives. He is greatly impacting the world, not merely passing through it.
Dragon Boy gives him that chance.

PART 2:
After the events of Good Things Come.Astarion and Tav have solidified their roles in the Underdark with the other Spawn, as well as in Faerun. They realize there is still much more they can do to stop another Vampire lord, and help another of their Companions in the process.
A snippet of things to come:
Except Tav beat Astarion there and reached him first, and a wet SMACK sounded as Astarion's chest collided with her shoulder blades where she stood solidly between them.
For a moment, Astarion only saw red.
For a moment, Astarion heard nothing but the roaring, rushing sounds in his adept ears - that of the rolling sea, and Tav's blood catapulting through her arteries with her own anger.
Astarion's eyes focused and traced her form and up her extended arm, his lip twitching with the beginning of a snarl at the action that had been denied him, but the scent of Gale's blood hit his nose then. The odor was strong despite the pervading smell of salt in the surf that lapped along the shore at their feet.

Summary
Hi everyone,
This is another original work by me, that I just want to write for funsies.Nathaniel Rhodes is a marine biologist studying jellyfish at the St. Marlowe Institute of Oceanic Sciences.
The ocean is a scientific thing: currents can be studied, patterns can be learned. There is no such thing as fictional, magical creatures under the waves of New England. That is — until Nate nearly drowns.Or: A human falls in love with a merman.
I'll try to update weekly! Check out my other works if you like this one 🫧♥️
