    PREVIEW:
    It was 6pm, your hotel was very fancy overlooking the city's lovely afternoon lights. It'd be good to get started now, you had thought so you grabbed your tote bag and stuffed a few notebooks along with many assorted pens just in case one lost ink. The bar was only a 5 minute walk, inside was a lovely dim blue which you had to write about already. You pulled out a small notepad to jot down details you see like chandeliers, lighting, table setting, people, music...music! Oh the music was lovely, wonderful piano solos, gorgeous saxophones that buzzed through the room, amazing vocals that brought shivers down everyone's back.

    Summary

    “It’s supposed to go on your arm,” Cherri explains, watching her closely for her reaction. “Right about here.” Her fingers reach up and gently touch the place she means. Apo’s mind immediately zeroes in on that spot.

    “Yeah, okay,” Apo breathes. The design is perfect. She kind of deeply wants to get it.

    “So you like it?” Cherri asks. If Apo didn’t know her any better, she’d say she sounds almost shy. “You want to get it?”

    Apo weighs the decision for all of a second and a half before nodding. “Yeah. It’s really cool.” She adds, firmly, “I like it.”
    ---
    in which cherri convinces apo to get a tattoo, they both kind of fall in love in the process, and it works itself out in the end

    Summary

    Izuku wasn't having a good time or life in general. And when he finally thinks it's the end of all his suffering, someone gives him a chance to start over, this time in a reality different from his own, where people say "pup" instead of "child," there are more than 2 genders, and a bunch of bizarre customs.
    It's not even close to what he expected for his future, but he intends to make it work, and who knows, maybe he'll finally get people who care about him.
    Blue Butterfly Bush is an East African tropical shrub, its form reminiscent of a blue pale butterfly; it symbolises renovation and transformation. And I thinks nothings represent better what I want to write.

    Summary

    There's been less Hanahaki Disease fics recently and that's just unacceptable so I'll take one for the team. There's a pretty decent backstory of Hanahaki disease that I cooked up that I feel a lot of you would enjoy. This just so happened to like up perfectly with our dear 2383 lines of code's birthday so there's that too.

    Or

    Dazai starts to throw up blood covered flowers. He knows who he loves and who would never love him back.

    Chuuya Nakahara.

    One of the only reasons he hadn't completely given up on his sorry, miserable life. As he puts it: If I forget about the man born in April, then I truly won't ever know what I am again. I would take a painful death over forgetting him any day. He is the only thing I can touch, I can feel, the only thing that I sincerely know exists in this world of hypotheticals.

    Summary

    In a world where war still rages beyond the doors, Maccadam’s Old Oil House remains untouched—sacred neutral ground, where even enemies lower their weapons and speak in careful tones under the watchful presence of Maccadam. Feared, respected, and impossibly wise, he is the one mech no one dares cross.

    And Starscream is his sparkling.

    Raised among quiet deals and louder laughter, Starscream moves through the bar as both server and sovereign, balancing trays and secrets with equal grace. Every table watches him. Every faction wants him. Some for his beauty, some for his sharp mind, some for the power that comes with being chosen by Maccadam—but all of them circle the same truth:

    Starscream is untouchable.

    Beneath it all, hidden in the warmth of the lower levels, he tends something no one expects—a garden. Rare cyber-flowers, delicate growths, and carefully cultivated ingredients that feed the bar above. Life, nurtured in a world that forgot how.

    But even in neutral ground, tensions simmer. And when attention turns from admiration to possession, Starscream must decide what he truly is: a prize to be claimed… or something far more dangerous.

    Summary

    Another year, another research topic. I've seen a few conversations online regarding Pretty Cure Spirit Animals (or Animal Comparisons, as I call them), but sadly not only did those go nowhere, but the initial posts starting the debates were all deleted! So with a little help from some of the residual Reddit comments, I'm trying to finally answer that question for myself. What animal do I think best represents each Cure and why?

    Summary

    In the sacred temple of the Quiet One, the preacher preach and the devotees repeat:

    For pain is in every path of this world, it is endless until death comes.
    But, it also reminds that if you still feel the pain, you are still alive.
    No pain is everlasting.
    For even pain must die, and we all have to walk the path of impermanence.
    And at the end, every road leads to death.
    Death will come to me and it will come for me, so will it come to pain.
    When my time has come, I will embrace it, the inevitable.
    But now, here I am, remain.

    Summary

    "But just think about it, Shidou. He has never looked at a woman in his life—"

    "He hasn't looked at anyone. That's autism at this point."

    "—and now comes someone who gets him all riled up in a matter of 3 minutes. That's awesome!"

    "Bachira, they bumped into each other."

    "That's how every great story starts, don't you read fanfiction?"

    "I do! But this isn't AO3, this is our best friend. You can't go and play the author just because you want to."

    "Oh, please. Where did your fun stroke go?"

    "Lecture was shit. We got a new theory and I've been digging around for hours now. It's fucking up my thinking."

    "And now?"

    "And now... I don't think I'll be mentally available for your mind games for a few days."

    "Booo! In a few days it'll all be wasted, we gotta act now."

    "Ok, then. What's the plan?"

    "We'll play cupid."

    "I got that. Elaborate."

    "The eyes, chico. They never lie."

    "Oh, come on!"

    "I'm dead serious! Did you not see how they looked at each other!?"
