Summary
Kaladin is attending the Ivy League Kharbranth University as a premed student. Modern-ish (mid-2000s) AU with (almost) no magic or spren (our world) just our favorite characters (Kaladin, Shallan, and Adolin) meeting/navigating college together. Think Stormlight with more girl-boy drama and lots of misunderstandings/miscommunications because I love that shit. If you're a millennial, get ready for some nostalgia. Especially where emo music is concerned because in my heart Kaladin is the OG emo kid. You can expect lots of typical millennial teenage angst/feelings/drama/pining/firsts and my typical crack-ish innuendo-laden prose. Also, we will be using ‘storms’ as a swear word because it's part of my vernacular.
Monthly-ish updates.

His muscles felt shaky and weak. He was going to hurt tomorrow but today he was going to sleep hard. He shut his eyes before he collapsed face-first onto his bed but his eyes almost immediately snapped open again.It smelled like her. His pillow, the sheets, his blanket. It all smelled like Shallan. He felt like he was surrounded by her. He wished he was surrounded by her. Fuck.

Summary
It's not all angst, trauma, and deadly bridge runs for Bridge Four during The Way of Kings. There are a few quiet moments, evenings of downtime and stew when the men can enjoy the companionship and relative safety that Kaladin fought so hard to create for them. Minimal angst, good vibes, and bridge crew shenanigans.

Summary
"Garlic does not harm us, Kaladin.” Leshwi said passively, holding her hands up. “And we’re not here to hurt you. We want to protect you.”
“Why?” Kaladin hissed, waving his useless garlic knife at them.
“Because,” Leshwi said, “You’re a target of Odium’s forces-"
“-and we hate Odium.” Adolin finished, staring at Kaladin’s knife. It shot away from the man’s hand, clattering to the ground a few yards away. Kaladin yelped, recoiling back.
“That’s not gonna do anything to us,” Adolin said, annoyance dripping in his voice, sounding offended Kaladin would even think it would work.
Kaladin is just a college student in 1980's Chiagco, taking caffeine pills and getting no sleep just to stay afloat. But after finding out his roommate Moash is a vampire, he becomes much more than a student.
Instead, he finds himself the main peice in a rivalry between two vampire factions. But while trying to getting back to his normal life, he may also find love along the way... :)

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
Hace ocho meses, Kaladin presenció lo peor de la humanidad. «El honor ha muerto» repetía una y otra vez en su cabeza, mientras los carromatos seguían avanzado. Los días se habían convertido en una rutina enloquecedora. Despertar, comer bazofia y dormir. Con diez intentos de escape y tantos muertos en su conciencia, Kaladin se encontraba tendido contra los barrotes de su nueva jaula, completamente perdido.
Pero todo cambió el día que los esclavistas trajeron un nuevo integrante al carromato de esclavos.
Alguien que no tendría que estar ahí.
Alguien que contradecía todas sus creencias.
Y alguien que cambiará su vida para siempre. -
