Summary
The Scarecrow notices when Dorothy can’t sleep. He notices, and he talks to her. About little nothings, at first, gradually building into conversations and familiarity.
Then one night, as if he's been building up to it, he says, very softly, “She's not as wicked as they say.“

Summary
"See, all we have to do is put our savings in this here jar! Eventually, we'll have saved enough to buy anything we set our minds to!" Partitio declared proudly.

"That is–"
"What a wonderful idea." Temenos interrupted serenely.

kriegspiel,/ˈkriːɡspiːl/ (noun) : an unorthodox chess game in which the players only know for certain the moves of their own pieces.
The tales of Power, Courage and Wisdom have been written in history. Their roles are engraved in stone. However, humans have this ineffable attachment to their free will, and sometimes act in unexpected ways. One of three chess pieces is sent on a journey across his land to another, and finds things aren't as prophesied :
Perhaps the stone has begun to crumble.Bookmarked by Aristata

Bookmarker's Notes
The characters are enthralling, the world building is gorgeous, and the whole fic in general is superbly written. I highly, highly recommend reading. I honestly think this fic would make an incredible Zelda game and it is genuinely one of the most well-written pieces of fanfic I've ever read.

Summary
The more times she fails to save Madoka, the more desperate Homura gets...until kidnapping her and locking her in a basement until Walpurgisnacht is over stops sounding like such a crazy idea.

Modern AU Link is just trying to mind his own business for once in his life when nine apparently-not-cosplayers tumble out of a portal in front of him and almost get hit by a car.
He is not amused.
