Summary
The Sunshot Campaign is over. Jin Guangshan looks out over the sea of young, battle-scarred cultivators and sees an opportunity.
Unfortunately for him, so do the girls of the Jianghu.
Why wait for matchmakers to settle your marriage, when you can do it yourself?
(Or, Jiang Yanli chooses her husband and accidentally starts a revolution)

Summary
They say Fire Lord Lu Ten is cursed: that his food festers and turns to poison in his mouth; that his sheets choke him in his sleep; that arrows loosed on the other side of the palace turn in mid-air to strike him.
They say he is a murderer; worse, they say he has killed his own family for ambition.
Avatar Aang thinks maybe he should check it out – curses usually involve ghosts and ghosts are kind of like spirits, after all. It helps that Sokka is heading up to the Fire Nation capital to seal his regrettably imminent betrothal with Princess Azula.
Meanwhile, Azula is determined to prove she’s much, much better than Zuzu. What better way to do that than by hunting down the mysterious assassins who seem set on overthrowing her cousin? And if it means she is too busy to see Ty Lee, who has become annoyingly distracting, that’s all the better.

Summary
Men become accustomed to poison by degrees - Victor Hugo
It is October 1949: Lycus Malfoy is dying, quarantined in his house alone but for his wife, Adelaide, who still hopes there is a miracle cure; Eileen Prince has vanished into a Muggle life, washing the dead and arranging flowers, away from the sneers she endured at school; Cygnus and Orion Black are at war with each other even as they bury their secrets six feet deep.
There is a murderer on the loose, shrouded in paranoia, and the old structures, things of blood and age and time, are starting to crumble.
And a ship arrives from Lübeck bringing Tom Riddle home.

run, run, run away, run away darlings by Aphoride

Summary
All things considered, it is quite hard to run away properly, when your friends can, quite literally, follow you to the Ends Of The Universe And Back.
This is fairly annoying when your friends’ primary motivations for hunting you down seems to be to pretend that Everything’s Fine Without Him, Really, ruin your perfectly-sweet, perfectly-quiet happiness with a sudden onset of Relationship Crisis, and to sidle you into playing Therapist when your only qualifications for the role are that you were once (sort of; it’s a long story) a God and/or have previously given some Exciting News to a random virgin woman and some shepherds, neither of which are particularly helpful.
Beelzebub is Mildly Furious, Gabriel is Quietly Amused: together they’re, well, sort of just… Meh about it all?

Summary
The week after Lan Xichen turns twenty-three, he is told that the elders have decided it is time: the matchmaker has been called.
Sect Leader Lan must find a wife.
It will, he is assured, simply be a process of him dictating his perfect woman to the matchmaker who will find the girl and make suitable introductions. Zewu-jun is, after all, the First Jade of Lan; who would refuse him?
This is less comforting than it’s supposed to be because Lan Xichen is left with the awkward, mortifying ordeal of considering the prospect of a wife, and all the books on the subject are, well, unhelpful for a man of his temperament.
It is his greatest challenge yet, so, naturally, he ropes all his brothers into it – willing, unwilling, unwitting.
(Shufu is simply grateful there are no more Explanations required. Twice was twice more than enough.)

Wei Wuxian isn't sure how or why Lan Wangji ended up in Jinxi, but he's not sure the village life is really for him.

Summary
There are Jiangshi corpses on the streets, a statue dancing through the parks, and rumours of Yin Iron and corruption slipping in with the mists from the sea.
These things are normal.
There is a toddler found alone on a boat and burning, a strange man with a red ribbon sits in Lan Wangji's seat, and the Little Apple Twist mocktail now has vodka.
These things are not.
Or, Wei Wuxian returns to Hong Kong and really, everything spirals out of control from there.

The Kiel Cadenza by Aphoride

Summary
It is 1905 and the British-German naval arms race is full steam ahead. Britain are winning - they are developing a weapon which will transform the race entirely and keep mastery of the seas in British hands. Germany is hunting for a rebuttal - and what better way, what easier way than to steal the Dreadnought plans from under British noses and scupper the ship before she can be built?
The British Ministry of Magic lends its best agent, Albus Dumbledore, to His Majesty's Government to counteract the threat of German magical agents sent from Berlin. His brief is simple: protect the Dreadnought, at all costs.
Germany have their own weapons up their sleeve, but it seems they may not need them when Albus' head is turned by a chance meeting at his former professor's garden party with a student named Gellert Grindelwald, over in England on a year abroad from Heidelberg university.
It's a perfectly charming whirlwind romance - at least, at first.

Summary
When one door shuts - oh, but there is always another possibility, always another future; another hundred, another thousand, and it is maddening to know fragments of them all but never enough, never enough to be more than a sickly, sweaty, sleepless mess.

Summary
A conversation without end is like a sandstorm: it encompasses everything, swallows it all and whirls, whips round from place to place, set on a pre-ordained path it is impossible to stop and building - always building to a breaking point; the crashing thunder of an argument.
And what are wars but arguments out of control?

Summary
Advent is a time for hoping, for waiting, for believing; a time when gods descend to the earth, and the celestial is made temporal.
A shame then, that Grantaire believed in nothing but Enjolras.
Or, Grantaire lit four red candles, one each Sunday of Advent; each time, he was visited by a god: a god who performed miracles.
