    Brio,” Lavash said in an undertone, after a quick, prudent glance around.

    “Yeah?”

    “Molly and I are going to kill Mom. We reckon Dad’ll go within three months afterwards, so if you’re right, and Peet doesn’t make it out… And I’m not saying I think there’s no chance there, I’m only putting it out there - it’ll just be us. You in?”

    Summary

    They were exhausted; the dark circles under their eyes were worrisome enough for people outside their circle to notice. Satoru wasn't used to sleeping much, nor did Shoko, but as Suguru's eyebags grew darker, Satoru decided to take matters into his own hands and got them a break.

    With more time on their hands, some matters became more pressing between the three of them. A short vacation felt like a solution for the exhaustion, other events emerged as a solution for other pressing matters.

    Satoru was surprised it was not his own idea, because most of the strangest ones always were.

    Summary

    He had always wanted it, but not like this. Never like this.

    The hunger in his chest had become a hole so big that Seven Kingdoms and a whole world besides could not fill it.

    Florian and fair Jonquil. Aemon Dragonknight and queen Naerys. Jenny and her prince of dragonflies.

    They were all just that, stories. Tales.
    No, her soft voice resounded in his ears, all stories can’t be lies.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    So, he would return home with Sansa Stark as a bride for his brother, even if it meant he had to bind her wrists and ankles, steal her from her bed and deliver her in the Great Sept of Baelor and push the crown of the queen consort on her head himself, and not even an army of wild, vengeful lords would have stood between him and his quest.

    Summary

    ' " Look, James," Sirius started finally, " I know you have a life here. I respect that, I really do."
    Sirius stopped then, cringing a little at his words. James felt his chest clench because he knew.
    " But?" He asked, not wanting to be answered.
    Sirius sighed, dropping his legs down into the ground, his boots thumping against the wooden boards. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees, and looked up at James through a curtain of black curls.
    " I need your help."
    James couldn't hold his eyes, and looked away while he nodded.
    " Right. What is it?" James said, tracing the edge of his yellow curtains with his eyes over and over.
    " Have you heard of The Drowned Maiden?" Sirius asked.
    " The Drowned Maiden? A pirate ship?"
    " Yes, a pirate ship. Her captain is a man named Regulus Black. I- I need him killed."'

    Summary

    ALW ending rewrite.

    What if in the end, Raoul didn't pull Christine away?

    Christine, wracked with guilt, runs back to the Phantom to return his ring. Horrified by the mob that quickly approaches, Christine insists that the Phantom save himself from the violence of the masses. Little does she know of the life-altering consequences this choice will bring her – a choice which will entwine her life with the Phantom's ever more tightly, just as she thought she had finally escaped him.

    The story follows the ending of the musical, and thus mostly abides by musical canon, with some details & characterization pulled from Leroux and Kay. Christine is in her early twenties, Erik in his mid-thirties – we're all about legal consent!

    Summary

    “Well, boss, it’s come to our attention that the, uh, bitty’s name is, ah…”

    Rumble turned around to his twin, an unknowable expression on his face. Megatron denied the urge to punt him across the room so hard he embedded into the wall.

    “Spit it out!” he howled. “What could possibly be so unusual that you withhold information from your Lord—”

    Soundwave cut him off — the only being in four galaxies that could do so without retaliation — by resetting his vocalizer with a harsh sawtooth buzz. He set his shoulders back and lifted his chin as Rumble shrank by his feet.

    “Optimus Prime: has designated Megatron’s sparkling as ‘Grease.’”


    Or: how schemes, slipshod spark-blockers, and sparkling fever ended the Cybertronian Great War.

    After their lives are shattered by Ted’s affair, Nicole Dupree and her daughter, Kat Richardson, embark on a journey of discovery and new beginnings.

    Nicole finds unexpected love with Carlton, their longtime best friend, while Kat moves on from heartbreak from Tomas—who betrayed her with her half-sister, Eva—by embracing a new relationship with Izaiah Hawthorne. However, Izaiah’s past is tangled with both Eva and her manipulative mother, Leslie, adding complexity to Kat’s fresh start.

    Despite their optimism, Nicole and Kat can’t escape the shadows of their past. Ted refuses to relinquish his hold on Nicole, subjecting her to emotional manipulation and public humiliation. Meanwhile, Kat’s scheming half-sister, Eva, and her conniving mother, Leslie, are intent on sabotaging their happiness.

    Nicole leans on her family for strength—her supportive son Martin, wise mother Anita, and fiery sister Dani—each providing the foundation she needs to face her battles. Amidst passion, intrigue, and danger, Nicole and Kat must fight for their happy endings. Who will emerge victorious as they navigate love, betrayal, and the battle to remain unbroken?
