The Protagonist and the Secondary Villainess Were Both Reincarnated From Another World!? by AlphaStarr
Fandoms: Royal Alchemist (Video Game)
26 Apr 2023
Tags
Summary
Their first thought was: Where am I?
Their second thought: Does this mean I didn't die, after all?
But they looked down at themself and found that they were wearing a fluffy (through rather dirty) white cravat that they certainly hadn't owned before; the blue jacket they'd been wearing at the crosswalk was replaced by a black cloak with a gold-toned trim. They could feel the bruises on their ribs press painfully against the hard boning of some ruffled article tied with too many laces, and they wandered over to the nearest reflective surface: a large puddle.
They blinked as they took in their reflection for the first time, the rising sun giving light to new information.
Silvery-white hair held in place by two clips. Vibrant violet eyes. And here, the most damning evidence: white, petal-shaped birthmarks that lined their lower neck and collarbone.
"I'm Alexis Rosenkreuz," they realized. "The protagonist of that game I was playing—Royal Alchemist."
Or: the one where I write an Otome Isekai light novel for a real otome game.

How to Make Him Fall For You in a Fortnight by AlphaStarr
Fandoms: Fire Emblem: Fuukasetsugetsu | Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Fire Emblem Series
06 Mar 2022
Tags
Summary
Hopeless in love (and hopelessly in love), King Dimitri believes that his cherished friend and advisor Dedue will never see him in "that way." Afraid that Dedue would feel forced to accept those feelings out of a sense of duty or obligation, Dimitri hasn't said a word on the subject, even as he approaches the third anniversary of his coronation.
However, that all might change when he discovers a mysterious pamphlet that claims to contain a foolproof method for wooing one's closest friend: "How To Make Him Fall For You In A Fortnight."

Summary
It all started with the first letter—or, rather, letters—that he received from Alexis after his coronation. (Retrospectively, had he known just what those letters contained, he might have dressed down a little more.)
Or, the horny epistolary fic. (Some smut included.)

Raphael's candle burns at both ends.

Summary
Whatever his reasons for coming here, the stranger arrives alone at a little past eleven at night. Dedue gives a cursory look at the man but then, he pauses. His gaze stutters on the eyes—or rather, the singular visible eye—and that shade of blue.
It pulls at something in the corner of his memory. Dedue could stare into it forever.
He almost does, but then the stranger blinks, as if emerging from his own reverie. The stranger purses his mouth in preparation to speak. He starts, then stops, and then starts again to say: "Is this place still open?"
Eight centuries after Emperor Edelgard I defeats King Dimitri of Faerghus in her war to unify Fódlan, a peculiarly familiar stranger makes his way to Dedue's family diner in Duscur City.

Witchcraft by AlphaStarr

Summary
They forget this in the history books: Ylisse once had a cruel king, too.
In timelines fractured by the rise of Grima and the passage of heroes into the past, the Crusader-King would die before his eldest daughter came of age, indeed, before her years numbered in the double-digits. In those worlds, Ylisse would taste peace for fifteen years before war crossed their borders once more.
But so, too, there are other worlds, worlds aplenty, and the twists of time are not always so kind.
The AU where Emmeryn was never Exalt, and her father continues to see his crusade against Plegia to the end. In a Ylisse torn apart by war, it is those upon the streets who suffer most-- and there, too, where rebellion starts to brew.

Summary
A quarter century after the position is jinxed, applicants to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts run drier than ever. The good news is that Headmaster Dumbledore happens to be acquainted with a qualified candidate seeking a career change. The bad news? The candidate in question is former Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald.
OR: Dumbledore makes questionable choices when trying to hire DADA teachers. (At least this one's still better than Umbridge?) A Marauders' Era comedy.

Summary
Ever After High's drama club attempts to put on Les Misérables as their spring show. As Vice-President of the club, Sage Idason very quickly has his hands full, especially when Headmaster Grimm attempts to censor the opera from being performed as written.
A story about The Drama Kings and Queens.

Summary
Unused to courtship with other girls, Apple White turns to what she knows best: studying. As the designated textbook for Advanced Wooing, furthermore having been written by Darling's great-uncle, The Art of Wooing by Prince Passion Charming seems to be the obvious pick.
(Darling, while deeply flattered, would really rather just skip the formalities in favor of tea at the Mad Hatter's Haberdashery & Tea Shoppe.)

Summary
"You should have spoken sooner."
"Would you have believed me if I had?" West's question came cuttingly. "Me, bearing hellfire and witchcraft and green skin?"
"I would have, if you'd told me the purpose of your visit," Chase insisted, just this side of too-quickly.
Deleted scene from Pixie Dust and Hydrogen, following a side-character on a side-trip to Wonderland. Alternatively: Celadon West has a weakness for his favorite color, and Chase Redford is (sort of) the beneficiary.

Summary
"I'm not ready to do this! How can I just let my friend face her doom as if it's her destiny?"
"It is my destiny," she stepped forth with the all command of her royal blood. "For better or worse, I chose this path. I still choose it."
Headmaster Grimm wasn't just making things up when he claimed the stories would poof! if the students didn't sign... he was just a little bit wrong about the manner in which they would do so. Or: I'm not a fan of empty threats... unless they're real.

Roll for Sanity by AlphaStarr

Tags
Summary
Zero tisked. "We've... had some bad rolls in the Credit Rating skill. And our tortuously wonderful Cavern Keeper won't let me take a side job in exotic dancing."
"Your character is a 48-year-old Professor at Yale," Leo sounded faintly aggrieved. "I'm not going to let you roleplay that... at least not until your character's sanity drops below thirty percent."
Odin shuddered, "Owen Night is a man of sound and fortuitous logic... but even he would weaken before the trauma of such a sight."
Leo&Odin&Zero friendship, with mentions of some pairings. Or: Instead on going on a real road trip-- like Corrin and his friends-- Leo and his roommates stay on campus during Spring Break, and roleplay one. Call of Cthulhu style.
(No actual knowledge of Call of Cthulhu is necessary to read this fic.)

Summary
"Um, hey... Rhajat, right?" Soleil sidled in, venturing a smile. "What's a pretty girl like you doing in a boring hospital wing like this?"
"You'd know better than I would," she bit scathingly.
"Haha, yeah... I guess I would," Soleil awkwardly rubbed the back of her neck. "I, uh. Sorry about the Wyrmslayer, and stuff. Oh! On the plus side, though, Mitama said you won't even have a scar when it's done healing! I mean... unless you wanted a cool scar."
Rhajat/Soleil & Tharja/Olivia, Revelations divergence AU with a healthy dose of reincarnation. Because the existence of night necessitates a day.

Prosperine by AlphaStarr

Summary
"Usually, the legend goes that the God of Death is the one who kidnaps the Goddess of Renewal... does it not?"
"We call them Pluto and Prosperine... And that is the way the story typically goes, though I expect you would have more niche expertise in the legend than I."
"It is as you say." Flora's eyes crinkle at the corners, and she flexes her fingers. A gentle breeze stirs. "But some tellers of the story insist evermore that Prosperine left willingly... that she preferred to choose him over the control of her mother, that she fell in love with him somewhere deep beneath the earth."
Leo/Flora, fairytale AU. A maiden in distress awaits not a hero, merely an opportunity.

Summary
Lon'qu turned around, and was met with Libra's hands around his throat.
"If you were a woman, and mortal," he said, his voice soft, low. "You would be dead by now."
"What will you do, now that you know I am not?" Libra whispered, and his hair swirled around his ears, it is just, it is just.
Libra/Lon'qu, Greek Myth AU. For those whose causes are most just are oft the most punished, but too are they the ones best rewarded with loyalty. Alternatively: Aphrodite is a jealous bitch who lives for drama.

Summary
"Maybe, even, for a little bit... I was considering staying for you."
"Selena," Azura's voice seemed soft, incredibly soft. "Do you mean that, truly?"
"I mean it," Selena bit her lip in an effort to not cry. "But you're a princess, you know... and Odin was right. It would be wrong to rob a people of their royalty."
Post-Revelations, a tale about returning home told in four parts. Azura/Selena & Odin/Takumi.

Summary
"The pair of you look such a picture," Camilla would sigh, and stand between them, no less picturesque. "If only I could dress you up like this every night, for all eternity..."
"You could," Beruka offered, curt, as earnest as ever.
"It'd sure be nice," Selena would wink. "But then you'd be out a pair of guardswomen. I don't think you'd want that either, Lady Camilla."
"You do raise a fair point, my clever Miss Selena," Camilla would pat her cheek wistfully. "A woman with my variety of influence, after all, makes ever so many foes..."
When Selena's latest job leads her to a secluded country manor, she is drawn in by the mystery of its elegant, nocturnal mistress, Countess Camilla, and her taciturn but sly guardswoman, Beruka. Sparks fly in this medieval-era romance... but will their love survive against the light of day?
Written for Fire Emblem Femslash Week.
