Summary
"The truth poured on her like a deluge, seeping into her mind, filling in each crack of doubt and unearthing every root of denial. She never felt so hollow, and now she knew why.
She was alone."
What if Spinel was a lot less competent, and after failing to steal an injector or a rejuvenator, finds herself at the wrong address to boot? Instead of savior of the galaxy, the homicidal pink gem finds herself tied to the depressed, self-destructive human, Dusty?
(Not a self-insert or reader surrogate fic. I wanted to explore the idea of instead of Spinel finding comfort and healing in another just as damaged as her — a la Pink Pearl — she found someone whose broken edges were a little more sharp. There’s no smut in this whatsoever and never will be. Sex will be mentioned and referenced, but never detailed.)

Summary
Kaoru surprises himself by laughing. He is not sixteen anymore, no matter how much Sentaro still makes him feel that way. He does not have to shovel around what he wants to say. What is he afraid of? That Sentaro will know how much Kaoru cares about him? He lost that when he tracked him down to the edge of Japan.

Summary
Nishinoya spots Asahi before Asahi spots Nishinoya. This makes sense to Asahi. Even in the nondescript bustle that is this airport baggage claim area, he finds himself sticking out, towering above people, resolutely in the way of old ladies pushing overstuffed suitcases.
“Asahi!” he hears. He glances around him. Is that Nishinoya or a child? No, it’s definitely a child, being towed along by a grim-faced parent.
“Behind you, Asahi,” comes Nishinoya’s voice again.
“Oh! There you are.”
--AKA, Nishinoya visits Tokyo after his trip to Italy

Summary
Time does not slow as her hands close around Catra’s wrists, still inches from her chest. There is only the honeyed ease of it, like plucking a fruit from the vine, or a note from a string. Slayer reflexes, she realizes.
What dissipates then instead of heat is an entire childhood of evenly matched competition; is last week when they wrestled here on this very grass and had gotten tired and laughingly called a truce before either of them could stay on top for more than a minute.
A Buffy the Vampire Slayer AU. No knowledge of Buffy necessary to read! Expect: high-school and then college-age modern au, Adora acquiring superpowers and fighting the supernatural forces of darkness (but was that really such a good idea?), and high drama right beside the mundane.

Summary
Because Catra is a coward, in the moment she realizes she can have it all, and also have none of it: stop the Horde, save Adora, be sealed away for forever in a portal and never have to speak to or see another Etherian again, she is relieved. It’s not quite dying, she thinks, but it’s the next best thing.
