    Summary

    Grace is unwell. Simon's arrival into the dome throws this into stark relief.

    It's Grace's turn to be wretched and inconsolable.

    (In which there is, in no particular order: religious psychosis, ghosts, time travel, shenanigans, 2 really awkward dudes who want to smash but can't figure out how to go about doing it, and finally, healing and comfort from a life that's been hard.)

    Summary

    Commander Simon Fisher, Prince of the Old Blood, did not make it out of the Consolidation Wars without leaving pieces of his body, his faith, and his sanity behind. But the proud and resource-starved kingdom of Edenne needs him for one last mission: they're marrying him off to fulfill a treaty without so much as a "thank you for your service."

    His Royal Highness, Prince Doctor Ryland Grace of Francisco would much rather be studying beetles than navigating the perils of court intrigue. Marrying a stranger would be bad enough, but when it turns out that Prince Ryland's new fiance is not just a savage Edenne warrior, but the Butcher of Filament Fortress himself? Let us say that the Prince-Doctor does not handle this well.

    ------------

    Welcome to the arranged-marriage royalty BloodyMary AU you didn't think you needed.

    Summary

    Captain Simon Park and his crew agree to kidnap Lord Ryland Grace for ransom.

    It ought to be simple enough: take the supposedly sickly heir from his father’s estate, keep him safely aboard the Iron Starling for a handful of weeks, and return him once Count Grace decides his only son is worth paying for.

    Except Ryland is neither sickly nor difficult. He is polite, capable, strangely resigned to his own captivity—and, before long, slipping into lessons beneath the open sky, shared meals, borrowed names, and the quiet rituals of a crew that has made a family out of the unwanted.

    Then the ransom goes unanswered.

    And Simon begins to wonder whether anyone ashore ever intended for Lord Ryland Grace to come home at all.

    Summary

    Two weeks after the disaster of a conference that was meant to be his academic victory run and the successful start of the rest of his life as a molecular biologist, Ryland Grace escapes to one of Washington’s state parks. Hiding away in his twin brother’s cabin, Ryland has to come to terms with the fact that the life he worked so hard for had slipped right through his fingers because his ego had been larger than his logical brain, and now he’s haunted by a community of scientists and online enthusiasts yearning to run what little is left of his dignity into the ground.

    But as a hike, one fuelled mostly by spite because obviously he didn’t learn his lesson just yet, goes south, he’s forced to call the rangers for help. And because life hates him, the ranger who told him not to wander into the woods is the one to take his call.

    Something about ranger Simon’s disapproving and definitely disappointed look cuts deeper than he anticipated.

    Summary

    Through the spite of the spirits or plain rotten chance, a door that would have been better left untouched has opened. On the other hand, with Fire and Earth as one's allies, sometimes escaping is the easy part.

     

    Even the Dragon-King's temple floods.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku is medically quirkless, not technically homeless, perpetually exhausted and doing his damned best despite it all. He also sees spirits, which might be cool if not for the fact that a) no one else does, b) they really don't like him very much, and c) he's pretty sure the heroes now think he's a villain working for the League.

    Aizawa Shota just wants to take down Overhaul, rescue Eri, keep his students alive, get some rest, and find out how this Deku kid knows things he absolutely should not know about his personal life and the Shie Hassaikai case.

    Unless Nighteye's right, and the kid really is a villain.

    Summary

    It's the first winter after Pitch's defeat. Jack is happy, he's not alone anymore, and his memories are gradually returning. But when a treasure hunt gone wrong puts Jack and Jamie in danger, flinging them through time and space, they find themselves on an island neither of them have heard of before. Jack's first priority is to get Jamie home safe, but Berk's inhabitants - human and otherwise - are certainly not making it easy.

    Knowing they will leave Berk and the Vikings behind as soon as they know how to, Jack is not going to risk the pain of growing close to any of these people (or dragons, for that matter). But Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, wearing his heart on his sleeve, doesn't seem to want to take the hint.

    Summary

    Izuku must learn his place in a broken and cruel world. He must learn the cost of being a hero. He must learn the cost of changing the world to his own image. In a world divided by factions vying for control, oppressive governments, and sympathetic villains, Izuku must decide his place amongst the chess pieces. He'll have to decide what to make of the broken dreams and shattered faith of an indifferent world. He'll need the power to rise above the mire and muck of despair.

    Thankfully, he was never quirkless.

    Sometimes quirks hide until they are triggered. Izuku tasted death and found it lacking, every flavour bitter and lacking spice. In the moments between death and life, he gazed into the howling abyss and it followed him home. Everything he thought he knew about the world is a lie. There are monsters lurking in the dark below, always waiting and always watching.

    They wait patiently, waiting for one to sit upon a throne of crystal madness and eternal suffering. They have waited for aeons and will wait until the end of eternity.

    They wait for Izuku Midoriya.
