Summary
The House of Hades is quick to wake from its long slumber, but slow to shake the sleep from its eyes as the nightmare overstays its welcome.
Thanatos hovers at the balustrade watching the waters of the Styx ebb slowly past, still sullied with gold.
It is all wrong.
Wrong, the gold of the river; wrong, the air that still tastes of change.
Time cannot be stopped, but he could be almost convinced otherwise, what with the way the House hangs in its state of disarray, the underworld frozen. And, though Time cannot be stopped, it would seem that Death can.or: in the aftermath of the hades 2 ending, thanatos finds himself temporarily out of work. unsurprisingly, as the incarnation of his job, he doesn't take well to unemployment.

Summary
Loki, who claims to be above such "mortal weaknesses," slept wherever the TVA is quietest. But over time, Mobius realizes it's more than just mischief. Loki’s pushing himself hard. Maybe too hard.
Then one day, Mobius walks into his own office to find Loki asleep on the couch — curled up like he’s trying to disappear into himself, face half-buried in his arm, breathing slow. And something in Mobius softens.
or
Mobius discovers that Loki takes “catnaps” hidden in quiet corners of the TVA. At first, it’s amusing—then one day, he finds Loki curled up in his office.

The Weight Beneath the Steam by Polymerre

Summary
The tea has gone cold by the time Yanqing barges in, brimming with frustration at himself and the weight of expectations he can’t seem to shake. Jing Yuan, as ever, is unhurried—too unhurried, Yanqing thinks, for someone with so much on his shoulders. But beneath the lazy humor and the deflections lies something heavier, something Yanqing isn’t old enough to name but feels all the same.
A late-night conversation, half about training and half about everything neither of them will say aloud. One cooling cup of tea, two restless hearts, and the quiet bond that keeps them tethered in the spaces between battles.

Summary
"First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."
As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.
"Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.
"Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.
"Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."
Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.
"A what?" he asked.

Summary
“This isn't a game, Yanqing!” The General asserts, his voice suddenly loud and deep and sharp. Both he and Yanqing freeze. The General is the first to deflate. “Yanqing, please… I know this is hard. I know. But this isn't a game, or a trick, or some training exercise. This is reality, and I can't strategize my way out of it. Not this time. I need you to understand that.”
“No.”
“Yanqing… I'm dying. You can't keep pretending I'm not.”
Or, Yanqing refuses to accept that the General's time is coming to an end.

Summary
The man was filthy. The beds of his nails were blackened with dirt. His pale hair was greasy and limp, his lips were dry and cracked, and his face was incredibly gaunt. He wore threadbare boxers and a tank top that hung loosely from his pallid and skeletal chest, and his feet were bare, the soles brown from walking on the street. He sat with Wyll's scratchy blanket clutched around his shoulders with one hand, and with the other he pressed the blade of a paring knife to Wyll's throat.
And so Wyll kept his eyes trained dutifully on the road.
Wyll goes for a late night drive to clear his head. Astarion needs to get as far away as possible — fast.

Summary
Wriothesley presses his knuckles against his damp brow. Sweaty. Stale. Warm, very, very warm. “You have a fever,” he sighs, leaning back.
“Obviously,” comes Neuvillette’s tired, but tart reply.
So, Neuvillette is the crabby sort when sick. For some reason, that is unsurprising.
Neuvillette is sick, mean, and Wriothesley still wants to nurse him back to health.

Summary
When she first started working for Astra Yao, she had no name, no past, no home to return to. A feral cat taken off the streets, she regarded Astra's kindness with suspicion, determined to maintain a professional distance until her mission was completed.
To her surprise, she found herself adapting to her new name, her new home, her new master. Successfully tamed, Evelyn found herself questioning the mission she was given, contemplating biting the hand squeezing her by the neck for the sake of the hand that had gently held her wrist.Bookmarked by AberranAnkh

Summary
Jiaoqiu is in the middle of crouching down when a warm hand grasps his elbow, startling him.
“Pardon my rudeness, Mr. Jiaoqiu.” The firm grip guides him up. The warm touch moves to cup his hand, a small object placed in his palm. “I believe this is yours.”
It’s his earpiece.
Relief washes through him. “Most kind of you…” The brush of leather cuffs against his skin as the man withdraws his hand helps him place the familiar voice. The suppressed aura of a warrior, a military man, yet one with such discreet consideration—that brush had been deliberate. “…General. I’m embarrassed to have troubled the Divine Foresight.”

Summary
“We should get married,” Pearl said into the hush.
Marina’s eyes flew open, wide awake. She didn’t physically react past that, other than a tightening of her arms, and she gave herself a few beats to process. It was so nonchalant, so casual, that Marina didn’t want to ruin the moment. She replied in turn, trying to keep her voice steady and light:
“Yeah?”
Pearl’s hands closed around Marina’s. “Yeah. Do you want to?”
Did she want to? Was Pearl okay?
“Of course I want to.”

“Yanqing,” he whispers, and all but throws the door open.The fledgling is ragged. His robe is in tatters, his shirt half-buttoned and rumpled and bloodstained. He’s sagged against the doorframe, nearly collapsed against it, breath coming harsh and quick. His eyes are half-lidded. He’s dangerously pale.
And every ounce of exposed skin is coated in a thin sheen of ice.
