    Summary

    She was the calm. He was the storm.

    A relationship unfolded in quiet moments rather than loud declarations: shared glances, unfinished conversations, gentle touches. It’s a slow-burn story about life changing love, found family, and the things that remain even after goodbye.

    Part 1: Tether - Complete
    Part 2: Distance - In Progress

    Summary

    Deep down, Mulder knew that if they were entangled even more tightly, he’d eventually become more irritated than aroused by her voice. He’d hear it in reference to uneaten vegetables and unopened mail and unfolded laundry. That holy righteous rage of hers, that unquenchable fire that roared at him to be better and do better and live better, would illuminate not just his career but the entirety of his being. And he doubted he could live up to that scrutiny. After almost almost getting her killed any number of times, somehow Mulder knew that asking her to forgive more mundane betrayals would be the final straw. Abduction? Possession? Cannibalism? All in a day’s work. Leaving sunflower shells everywhere? That was a bridge too far. It was better, safer, sweeter, kinder to love each other the way they did. To keep some mystery alive, and with it her steadfast belief in him. Delaying consummation was delaying his inevitable disappointment of her.

    Inspired by Lepusarcticus' beautifully-written series "Incrementum," a series of interlinked, internally-consistent, episodic MSR vignettes in roughly canonical order.

    In which the author attempts to play Dave Filoni to Chris Carter's George Lucas.

    Summary

    Rennah was supposed to drown the night her ship went down. Instead the sea spared her and Leviathan Academy claimed her. Now she trains among nobles, liars and future monsters. Haunted by nightmares she can't remember and a truth lodged somewhere beneath her ribs. The academy watches. The sea waits. And Eli Fallon, heir to a dying island and sworn to a fate he didn't choose, keeps finding himself standing between Ren and something ancient that wants her back.

    This is not a story about salvation. it is a story about what happens when the word gets the myth wrong and the girl who should have drowned refuses to disappear quietly. A pirate / dark academy / slow burn fantasy romance.

    *Posting this purely for my own enjoyment. It is a work in progress.

The Morningstars, unable to help him out of his predicament have sent their best Knight to protect him among the finery of the Vee Castle. The gruff, battle hardened Husk at first seems like an additional punishment, until he shows that he too, has something soft beneath his armor.

    Summary

    “The first time I promised to take care of you, we were children on a rotting dock. The last time, men who had kept every promise”.

    Choi Seungcheol is ten years old when he promises to take care of Yoon Jeonghan, nine, on a dock that smells of dead fish and desperation.

    That promise becomes an anchor for thirty-five years: from Jeju to Busan, to the distant hope of Seoul. It's kept with calloused hands, endless jobs, and hours stolen from sleep.

    Or: It's 1950 and two boys who had nothing but each other. And, against hunger, poverty, and a world that told them they didn't deserve to dream, that was enough to build everything: a family, a life, a future.

    Summary

    Mitchell was your typical demigod at Camp Half-Blood, just your average Son of Aphrodite.

    Except for his unique, if useless, gift. He could see the threads of love between people. Romantic, platonic, familial, he could see all types of love. Not exactly useful power on the battlefield.

    Then one day his mom decided to make his gift a bit more useful.

    Summary

    She was a legend once. Settlements defended, slaves freed, clean water flowing through a wasteland on the brink. But he remembers her differently, as the patient mentor who once taught him chess while he was being molded into a leader. She was too young to carry the weight of the wasteland. He was only a boy when they placed command on his shoulders. Then she vanished, leaving behind nothing but ghosts and whispers.

    Now, clinics rise from the ruins. Blue tape stretched across broken thresholds like law. No weapons. No allegiances. No questions. Only healing. A nameless doctor builds them one by one, even as she searches for the key to making her impossible dream a reality. But the Institute’s shadow looms, and its secrets stand in her way.

    He swears to save humanity from technology; she swears to save it from itself. What began as a boy’s quiet crush sparks into something far more dangerous, even as the savior of the Capital Wasteland takes up her fight again. She never wanted to be a legend. But legends don’t ask permission. Legends are made, one story, one battle, one strip of blue tape at a time.

    Updates Mondays.
