    Summary

    “Old Farmer Carter... he told me that this Valley was home to something deep and old and slow. Magic, spirits, he didn’t quite say. I just remember that funny wording. Deep and old and slow.” Lewis takes a shaky breath. “I laughed and asked if he was talking about George… but he didn’t laugh. He told me that when he was gone, he would send something to protect it. Protect us. Never said what, or what from. I thought he just meant he’d be praying for us.” He laughs hoarsely. “But I never saw him at church…”

    “Grandad,” you say gently, carefully, “what does this have to do with the new farmer?”

    Summary

    Humanity has a chance to gain immortality. If they can bond to an elusive alien species.

    So of course, the logical decision, is to drag people with biological compatibility from earth, and force them to become sex slaves for the better of humanity.

     

    Slow build - eventual romance - eventual forced praise/validation

    Plot heavy - descriptive sex scenes.

    I'm committed - writing this because the idea literally won't leave me alone.
    This gets EXTREME. Learn the tags. Obey the tags. Save yourself.

    More ideas keep coming. save ME...

    Summary

    "ART loved its crew. The joy and the love and perfect clarity with what it was supposed to be, what it was supposed to do. ART couldn’t understand how someone could dislike their function - how I could. Once, I had a similar clarity of understanding with my function, then I hacked my governor module and left the company for good, and I had lost it all. It was better, now, in a lot of ways. I had my humans, and ART, and our crew. But in some ways, things were worse.
    I still wasn’t sure what I was supposed to do, ever. I had made one good decision, to stay with ART, a few years ago, and I had been just making the same decision over and over again. It felt kind of like cheating."

    A 20-some year fic in which Murderbot comes to terms with what it means to have a home (or two), a found family (or several), and just what mutual administrative assistance can entail.

    Summary

    Ever since Carlos was little, he and his daemon have been fans of Dr. Lyra Belacqua. Both as the most groundbreaking experimental theologian of the 20th century, and as the heroine of dozens of fantasy-adventure children's stories (based very loosely on her own mysterious childhood).

    But Lyra's true legacy is still bigger than Carlos ever imagined...until he took a team of scholars to study Rusakov particles in the most theologically interesting community in Hispania Nova. Now his own day-to-day life is full of things like angels, witches, hooded spectres, portals between worlds, vague yet menacing branches of the Magisterium, and a man who walks around without his daemon and can read an alethiometer as easily as a stop sign.

    Summary

    "What was that?" Marcurio said, looking up at the wall. "Ancient Nordic... is that dragonscript?" He looked between Tun and the wall a couple times. "Are you... I mean. You can't be. Can you?"

    Tun stared into him intently, gesturing in question.

    "Dragonborn?" Marc said at last, but shook his head. "I doubt it. There hasn't been a Dragonborn in hundreds of years. That would be insane."
    --
    Pretty much a novelization of the whole game, but (mostly) from Marcurio's point of view.

    Summary

    Shy, bookish gentleman Walter Amesbury is shocked that gorgeous, charming playboy Stephen Fletcher would want to be his friend. He’s even more shocked when Stephen offers to introduce him to kissing...and then more. Walter’s been in love since the night they met, but Stephen is just being a good friend. Right?

    Summary

    A vampire named Kurt seeks the help of Dr. Liam Beyer, an expert on battlefield history, to identify the battle in his earliest memories. Kurt’s ridiculously attractive (and a bit terrifying), but Liam is definitely not going to fall in love with him. And Kurt certainly wouldn’t get attached to an ordinary man like Liam. Even Kurt’s intense protectiveness of Liam doesn’t mean anything. They’re just best friends. Who share an occasional passionate kiss. You know, like friends.

    Professor Liam Beyer was born a decade after the deaths of the last soldiers to fight in the US Civil War. Thus, he was not expecting to meet a Union Army veteran in his 4 o’clock symposium on the Battle of Antietam.

    Liam noticed the man as soon as he walked in, and not just because it was odd for a member of the public to show up for a faculty lecture at the university. No, the man caught Liam’s attention because he was distractingly handsome. Literally, Liam was distracted enough to drop his pen onto the overhead projector, causing a giant shadow to loom over the map of Maryland on the screen behind him, as if a third army had materialized there in a dense offensive line.

Finn and Samuel take an instant dislike to each other, which is only made worse by the fact that they secretly find each other quite attractive. But when they’re drawn into the search for two missing women, they try to put their differences aside and be of some actual help, even though their psychic abilities are fake. Now if only the light bulbs would stop mysteriously shattering every time they have an argument.

    Summary

    They’ve lived and fought and worked together for thirty odd years, and Adam cannot accept that there will be a time when he looks to his right and doesn’t see Elidh sat there. That’s why he insisted on escorting Elidh back to his home world of Fortia. Just two retired generals taking one last trip on their old ship, sitting and watching the stars go by as they share a drink for old time’s sake.

    It’s quite possible that Adam didn’t think this all the way through.

    Summary

    Gifted with the power to possess any target, Reynar makes for the perfect secret agent - and his loyalty is ensured by the fact his real body is kept hostage by his employers.

    When he's given an empty vessel to infiltrate a mafia family, he feels overjoyed with the opportunity: finally, a long-term performance! And the game turns even more entertaining when the clan heir's bodyguard takes an interest in him; lazy, loyal and quietly sarcastic, Caile is cleverer than he seems... and gifted with dangerous abilities.

    But isn't it all part of the fun?

    Summary

    Eddie Brock arrives in Knull, Maine to get over his breakup and complete a novel. Unfortunately for him, he becomes entangled in a murder mystery, and is roped into assisting Detective Anne Weying and journalist Dan Lewis in discovering the true killer. Along the way, he also enlists the help of nervous local doctor, Dora Skirth, and disgruntled motel-owner, Mrs. Chen.

    And lurking beneath the waves of Sleeper Beach is something ancient...

    (This is very much inspired by Twin Peaks, Fargo, and the movie "The Lighthouse," but you don't have to watch any of those to understand the story. If you like those three things, you will probably like this fan fiction. And if not, I can promise you that Eddie and Venom will get together. But how...?)

    Other things included here: lighthouses, shitty but charming motels, crime-solving, elements of a workplace romantic comedy, people drinking coffee, misty beaches, and tentacles

    Summary

    ART and Murderbot wanted to spend more time together, so they do. They spend it watching media in ways humans and augmented humans don't understand, and aren't capable of.

    Having real feelings about fake things together is one thing.
    Having real feelings about real things (like each other) and being expected to talk about them (with each other) is something very else.

    Summary

    I pull close to it in the feed, and say, “You were lucky.”

    The rogue SecUnit reacts, physically and in the feed. It sits bolt upright, and a wave of fear ripples off of it like a [cloud of micro-debris], or like an [emergency evasive maneuver that grinds a planet’s upper atmosphere]. It’s unpleasant. It’s unfamiliar. I capture the data, store it, and start chewing on it immediately.
