Summary
“I tried, Kaladin,” Amaram said, “I thanked you. I was going to give you a new life. But you couldn’t just take it, could you?”
Kaladin’s mouth was dry, “Take the Blade. But don’t hurt him—”
“Oh, I will take the Blade,” Amaram sneered, “But it’s not enough. The truth can’t get out. It must be believed that I killed the Shardbearer.”
“You can lie. Say whatever you want—”
“I’m sorry, but this is what happens when darkeyes forget their place.”
“NO!” Kaladin shouted.
Amaram raised a hand.
Two knives plunged into Adolin’s body.

When Adolin takes the fall for something he didn’t do, Dalinar sends him to serve anonymously in Amaram’s army.
There he meets Kaladin, his squadleader and new roommate. Adolin’s flirty, sunshine charm slowly breaks through Kaladin’s walls, and they eventually fall for each other.
Then, Amaram betrays them. He tries to kill Adolin and sells Kaladin into sexual slavery.
When Adolin finally finds Kaladin again, he’s broken. He doesn’t believe the man he once loved could be a prince.
But Adolin refuses to give up.

Summary
Kaladin is sworn to protect. She’s a spy sent to betray. And their relationship could save—or break—both of them.
Kara has always walked between worlds: lighteyed noble and Diagram loyalist, spy and scholar, failsafe and free spirit. Sent to Urithiru with vague orders and no backup, she plans to lay low, map the tower, and stay unnoticed. But when she ends up as a scribe for the Windrunners, Kaladin refuses to drop his suspicions, and she can't quite tame her curiosity. Turns out, lying to Bridge Four is more difficult than she anticipated. As suspicions rise and war rages, Kara must navigate dangerous secrets, a stormy Windrunner Captain, and a budding group of Windrunners that makes her wish she could give honest answers for once.
Secrets unravel. Storms gather. And Kara’s past returns. Violently.
Sometimes, survival means trusting the person with the sword at your throat.
Weekly updates (or more)
Starts a few weeks after Oathbringer and diverges from canon.
Note: This Kara is an original character and not the Windrunner Kara who appears later in canon.

Summary
So, this is it. My breakout era for writing Stormlight fanfics! This collection is for my ongoing Kadolin saga, Sun & Storm.
☀️⛈
The one where Kaladin and Adolin are too busy trying not to fall in love to notice they already have. It's a slow-burn, character-driven romance that lives in the space after the "will they/won't they," asking: "How in Damnation do they?"

Summary
During the battle for the Oathgate in Shadesmar, Adolin is mortally wounded. This one small change, just a matter of inches, sets off a series of events that will rewrite the history of Roshar.
-
In a war between immortal undead and fragments of divinity itself, hope is found in strange places - including the notebook of an artifabrian, the pockets of a surgeon, and the sewing lessons of a little prince.
“Darning socks is easy, my little light. There are other things - hearts, and minds, and people - that are far harder to mend. But you have clever hands, and a gentle soul…”
“And a needle?” Adolin said, beaming and holding up the little sewing kit in a chubby hand.
Evi smiled.
“And a needle.”
(This started as a bit of indulgent hurt/ comfort, only to become a massive story involving murder, conspiracies, execution, Stormscience, offworld travel, spren politics, and the unforseen effects of simple compassion. It also provides real consequences for certain major canonical decisions that seemed to be swept under the rug.
If you want explicit Shakadolin check out “Unraveling”, a series of romantic interludes that fit between various chapters of this story)

"You seemed like you could use a distraction." Kaladin brings his other hand to caress Szeth's cheek. "From the waiting. And the nerves. I hope this is okay"
Szeth nods softly. "A distraction would be... welcome."
