“Again?” Cypher unfurls the usual belt of instruments needed for the procedure. “I’m starting to think you enjoy being around me.”
“Don’t flatter yourself.” Sova says flatly. “I would not be here if I had a choice.”

Sova loses his eye, over and over.

Summary
In this world, the first words your soulmate speaks to you are tattooed on your skin from birth.
Wriothesley hears his on the day he stands - a ragged, scrawny teenager, his hands still feeling the sticky warmth of another’s blood - in the middle of a world he’d only ever seen in newspapers. And looking down on him was a divinity... dressed in elegant robes, with hair the color of moonlight on water.
In that moment, Wriothesley swore an oath to himself that he would not utter a single word in reply. After all, what right did he have to taint this divinity with his own filth?

Summary
Wriothesley notices draconic eyes the size of his head looking down at him.
Instantly, his heart is jump-started into a beating frenzy, pounding in overtime even as he does his best to keep as still as possible. Part of him wants to say something—a witty greeting, perhaps?—just to catch the dragon off guard, but the muzzle certainly isn't helping with his attempts.
Then he hears the rumble of ancient grounds, sees the rising of a majestic set of claws, and thinks,
What an honor it is, at least, to die from such a magnificent beast.
Wriothesley is offered to the Dragon of Water as a sacrifice.
Spoiler: he does not actually get sacrificed.

Summary
A soft sound brings Genji's attention back to the recording. “No,” Hanzo whispers, so quietly Athena has to boost the sound, creating small crackles of feedback in the speaker. Genji’s heart thumps loudly in his chest. “No,” Hanzo repeats, a little more strongly, “Father, please.”
Sojiro scoffs, curling his lip. The item he’d been reaching for comes into view of the camera – a bow, not too dissimilar to Stormbow, but stained in the reds and blacks their father was known to be fond of. “You’ve been warned, Hanzo.” Sojiro produces an arrow from a quiver stashed somewhere behind him, nocking it on the bowstring. “This tendency of yours is detrimental to the clan and will not be tolerated.”
Hanzo makes a more concentrated effort of struggling against the guards. “I promise it won’t happen again, Father. Never again. Just please, don’t do this!”
OR: When Overwatch confiscates old files from Shimada Castle, Genji asks Athena to sort through them and show him anything she thinks he should see, which leads Genji to the realization that he's managed to completely miss the fact that his brother's gay... and that their father wasn't who Genji thought he was. So, he decides to take matters into his own hands.

“And now if all your love is wasted, then who the hell was I?” by Amethystfairy1

24 Jan 2026

Summary
Was it all just wasted? Or of a different kind.
A different time, where we all knew the end came swift-
-as mountain winds blew.
And I knew you. In every shade as you grew.
For all you struggled to do.
And I knew you. Stars above, I knew you.
And I loved you, for all I forgot to survive, for all that I tore to arrive-
-at this place, scarred and twisted and cracked, with a new cast of names all here at my back.
And I loved you, my dear, in all of your shapes.
For all that you ached to fly.
And you that I knew, though I’ll curse and I’ll lie.
It’s all what I don’t know.
Who the hell am I?{In which it's been a long time since I last saw you.}
(Whumptober Day 11/16/22 - “Can you get through all the pain inside you?”/Repressed Trauma/“All the battles I want to win, nothing matters but giving in.”/Collars)

Summary
jimmy liked his mornings quiet — the kind that smelled faintly of rain and flour, where the streets were still half-asleep and the world moved slow. what he didn’t like was running out of fresh rosemary.
pyramid bakery, rival to the place he worked at, the bread bridge, was warm and golden, spilling light across polished wood floors. steam curled from pastries that looked unfairly good, and the air was thick with butter and sugar. it was the kind of place you could lose a whole morning in, if you let yourself.
he came for rosemary. instead, he found the man behind it all — messy blond hair, cheeks flushed pink, arms dusted with flour, a smile slow enough to make leaving feel impossible.
the rain tapped gently against the windows, a soft rhythm that matched the quiet pull in jimmy’s chest. rosemary might have been the reason he came. it wasn’t the reason he stayed.

Summary
‘I hate you’, is written on his skin, at the level of his forearm as if it were a whisper. The words are added to those already present, slip between other sentences, where there was still a patch of skin available. They are engraved below 'You disgust me', above 'And here I hoped you were dead', and next to 'If I could time travel, I would go in the past and fuck your mother to make sure you never come into the world’.
Or, in a world where every lies your soulmate ever told you is written on your skin, Baek Yoon-Ho is not surprised to see some insults appear as a new tattoo.

Traveling Thieves {Dark Fantasy AU} by Amethystfairy1
Fandom 3rd Life | Last Life SMP Series, Empires SMP, Hermitcraft SMP, Life Series | 3rd Life SMP Series
22 May 2026
Summary
A collection of all the stories in Traveling Thieves, which is my Dark Fantasy, Hybrid Slavery, super angsty AU that spawned from my Whumptober 2023 prompt fills! Currently in semi-chronological order except for the first fic in the series, which will always be “I see the danger, it’s written there in your eyes” which if anyone does want to read the series in chronological order, I’d like them to start there! ^-^ I also occasionally place some stories in specific locations that I think work best for the reading order that aren't exactly where they'd be timeline-wise!
WARNING: THIS IS A WHUMP-CENTRIC, ANGST-CENTRIC, HURT/COMFORT (SOMETIMES NO COMFORT) DARK FANTASY AU.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read the tags before you dive into any stories of this one, this series is intended to be a place for me to try my hand at writing and exploring some darker themes.
There will be plenty of happy times in this, too, though! It's not all doom and gloom, I promise! I hope you'll enjoy!
Ask me about the series, world building, future planning, or just come say hi! @amethystfairy1

Summary
Out of nowhere the loud ringing of the phone pierced the deafening silence of the apartment, Pearl’s heart nearly giving out in surprise. Though loud, the sound was muffled, coming from behind the door leading to Jimmy’s room. Pearl’s brows knit themselves together. How had he forgotten his phone as well?
'He’d probably leave his head behind as well if it weren’t attached to his body' she thought to herself as she hung up and headed for the bedroom, carelessly throwing the door open, only to freeze in her tracks.
Jimmy hadn’t left his phone behind.
He hadn’t even left the apartment.
He was sitting on the floor, back pressed against the corner walls, knees pulled up to his chest. Red-rimmed eyes stared unfocused into nothing, erratic breaths punching out of his lungs, drowning on dry land.Or
Pearl had a gut feeling something was wrong with Jimmy, she just didn't realize how bad it had gotten.

Summary
Warm. Warm. Very warm.
While Boothill couldn’t feel the point of contact, he most certainly could feel the warmth coursing through the rest of his body, burning its memory into its path.
Holy fuckin’ shit an’ his brother, this man would kill ‘im. Could a guy really be that stunning lookin’ up at ‘im all sweet through his finely curled lashes? Fuck ‘im (and maybe, actually, do), he hadn’t known what he’d started back in the kitchen.
And maybe he was just a little weak, because this guy was quite literally just kissing his hand and he was melting. On the floor.
Boothill had to admit, he might've gotten a little drunk, if that black hole in the memories of his date was any indicator. Surely, nothing could have happened in that time, though.
His phone's gallery would like to disagree.

Summary
Aventurine couldn't help but feel a bit ridiculous. There he was, standing outside the door of the man he had practically raced to see and, yet, when confronted with the act of announcing his presence he was suddenly struggling. His eyes slid down to his hand, noting the way his fingers trembled slightly, and felt his lips curve in a rueful smile. It made sense, he supposed, after everything, but he hated that it was still difficult to have faith, to trust. Were it any other situation with any other person he wouldn't have faltered, not with the odds so heavily stacked in his favor. However the truth was that his unease was linked directly to the fact that, somehow, he'd allowed Veritas to become important.
Reeling from the whirlwind of emotions caused by Penacony, both romantic and not, Aventurine finds himself on Dr. Ratio's doorstep, yearning for something he's not sure he deserves.
