Summary
"With a mix of kitchen staple recipes, beginner cooking advice, and exaggerated — and frankly libellous — anecdotes, Mary Quinn (mother of mediocre, and over-hyped, Michelin Star chef Anna Quinn) serves up a passable debut cookbook.
In this humble reviewer's expert opinion, it is somewhat recommended if you have absolutely no idea on the basics, but otherwise expect to see this publication in the reduced section soon."

Summary
A series of oneshots about current events in an AU where the APH Nations are publicly known (and always have been). America-centric, with America/England as the main pairing. Other nations may pop up as well.
Warning: This series is political, and it has a very strong liberal/anti-conservative bias. It also features real events and real people.

The Persistence of Persephone by LuciferxDamien for Susurrative
Fandoms: Ancient Greek Religion & Lore
28 Nov 2024
Tags
Summary
Persephone has found herself infatuated with the gravelly voice of a man she has never seen. Her mother, Demeter, insists on keeping her away from all men, but Persephone is persistent. When she meets the man with the gravelly voice, she wastes no time in making her wishes known to one demure Hades, going so far as to steal him away, back to his own realm, where she makes herself comfortable in his home.
But happiness cannot last forever, and Persephone has to make the choice to either remain in Hades, and with Hades, dooming all mortals, or to make a sacrifice that would divide her time between her mother and the man she wishes to claim as her husband.

Summary
He noticed some of the other students looking at him —probably because of his scent, but there were always students looking at him— but all he could focus on was how Prompto would look in the feminine uniform. He knew the skirt wasn’t that short, but what if it was? What sort of socks would Prompto wear with it? Would he wear his usual green tie or would he wear the red bow?

Prompto wears a skirt to school and Noctis's pining gets cranked up to 11

The gods play their games, and mankind is left to endure the consequences.
At the Trident, it is Robert Baratheon who falls this time, his rebellion crushed beneath the weight of Rhaegar Targaryen’s victory. Triumphant on the battlefield, Rhaegar seeks to reshape the fractured order of Westeros, to restore peace and stability to a realm torn apart by war. But even a king must face the consequences of his actions. In the shadows of his triumph, discontent festers. Across the farthest reaches of the Seven Kingdoms, knives are being sharpened in the dark, ready to strike. Every Targaryen must question their own fate and prepare for the storm that is coming.
Among his siblings, Aemon Targaryen finds himself at a crossroads. The dreadful game is upon him, and he must make the choice.

Summary
You know who I am.
How could she not?
She who had pursued him for millenia, who had chafed under talks of peace and rejected all offers of rest, even unto the eternal shores of Valinor. She who had drunk countless times from the sea, and named her thirst quenched—her motives pure and selfless. Who had matched her breath to his in the glimmer-dark of a ship’s cabin; who fell asleep to the intimate mapping of his fingers along her spine, cool cheek to his chest and the heady beat of his too-human heart in her ear.
Who else, since the long and perilous pride of Fëanor, had touched the darkness such as she.

Or: Would Sauron still rise if Galadriel stayed?

Summary
“That’s the thing, Louis.” Lestat offers him a small smile that doesn’t quite reach his eyes. “I finally understand why you couldn’t love me back. It wasn’t easy to accept, but it’s time for me to be selfless and do the right thing.”
Louis can't stand the silence that follows. “What's the right thing to do, Lestat?”
“It’s time for me to let you go.”
Or: Lestat decides that it's time to part ways. Louis has a problem with that.

Summary
When Mairon packed up and headed south for the Pastures he expected to lay low for a few years, just until Aulë’s urge to throw him from his Halls ebbed. What greeted him instead might just have been the single thing he’d never dared to ask for.
OR: Alternative Universe. Mairon never gave in to Melkor’s temptation, but another did in his place. Artanis has her own issues with the growing discord in her family. None of it stops their growing interest in each other, but hard decisions still lay ahead and they don’t always pick the right path.

Summary
“Why do you ask?”
And fuck, if that doesn’t rattle the box Louis’ tried to lock this up in, and if they weren’t trying to be better, do better, Louis would ask him why do you think? Would ask him what goes on in your head that you think I wouldn’t want to know all of this? Would ask him what it is about the two of them, who can talk for nights on nights on nights, who can know each other’s topography and undersoil, who can live within the most wild and rugged terrains of one another, yet only turn over their most weathered stones for tourists.

Summary
Sometimes a gang bang is about reconciling with your best friend and overcoming the internalized shame you’ve both been hanging onto for years. And then somehow also getting a bonus boyfriend.
Literally this story was supposed to be far shorter but a “minor character” was like “Those are some cute protagonists you’ve got there, I think there’s just enough room between them for me! :D” Which is why this is now a bi4bi4bi novella instead of a short story about having improbably compatible kinks with your best friend.

Summary
“Well, I can’t have that,” Halbrand tells her, and he downs the rest of his draft before placing the empty glass back down onto the bar with a thud. He pulls out his wallet and pays for it. “I’d feel really bad if I left you stranded out here,” he starts to say, tucking his wallet back into his pocket, “so what’s our heading, princess?”
Galadriel’s eyes grow wider, and she finally looks at him. “Our heading?” she asks, like she doesn’t know what he means when she does.
Halbrand nods his head. “Yes, our heading. Where are we going next?”
“We?”
Halbrand meets her eyes, seeing the slight flush deepening the apples of her cheeks. Some of it’s alcohol. Some of it’s embarrassment. Some of it might just be because she finds him attractive if her little lip biting is anything to go by. “Yes,” he agrees firmly, “we. We’re out here together right now, aren’t we? Why not make the most of it?”
.
Galadriel goes out drinking after a bad breakup, and Halbrand shows up to put all the pieces back together.

Summary
After the final Breaking of the World when existence is remade by its creator Eru Ilúvatar, second chances are possible. A little Artanis goes into the city with her brother, Finrod, and meets someone who isn't an Elf at the forge. Intrigued by Mairon, who is a Maia instead of an Elf like her, she keeps coming by to visit him throughout the years, and he visits her family, too. They develop a fast friendship, but the older Artanis becomes, the harder it is to remain just friends.
Written for a prompt asking for Sauron/Galadriel fic post-canon, post-LOTR, anything goes. This is where my mind went.

Summary
She’d seen the degradation of watching a man fight for his life, the insatiable greed of those in the audience cheering it on. Women of high culture and class, women like the row that Galadriel finds herself in, are supposed to be above such carnage, weaned away from violence at a tender age in deference to their omega sensibilities.
But the man across the cage from her, a man that stands alone, studying her under a hood of soiled bangs, an unkempt mess of auburn hair rendered nearly black under all the grime. He’s covered in absolute filth, an iron collar around his neck linking him to a chained post nearby. He’s — tall, perhaps taller than any of the other alphas there. Built deceptively strong and unassumingly dressed in a dark blue linen shirt that looks like it’s seen better days. Torn and threadbare at the edges, he looks squalid, like he hasn’t seen a bath in weeks. He should be the farthest thing to draw her attention or attraction.
But his eyes hold hers without flinching when he stares at her, and Galadriel can't look away.
