    Summary

    Bella moves to Forks at the age of 25 to help Charlie out, but as we know, a certain vampire family also lives in Forks...
    When Bella falls for the married, but sexy as sin Dr. Cullen, what will she do? And when they do come together, how will she navigate the family dynamics of the Cullens? Adding her to the family is difficult on all participants. Throw some drama with the other supernatural and normal inhabitants of sleepy Forks, and you have this story.

    Big themes in this story are: family dynamics, introspection, growing up and 'real life' hardships. Issues that you and I could come across are more foregrounded than the supernatural, mythical issues - those mostly form a backdrop for the more human problems Bella encounters.

    Summary

    Daybreak (noun) - the time in the morning when daylight first appears; dawn

    Nightfall (noun) - the onset of night; dusk

    --
    Daybreak and nightfall are opposite but complementary concepts. Like how Tanjirou and Giyuu's personalities and characters may appear different, but their core values and desires are actually quite similar.

    Also known (by the author) as the sleep one-shots.

    Summary

    Breathe, Tomioka. You're an adult, you interacted with people you've liked before. You just have to breathe and not panic and not pull thousands of yards of toilet paper for no reason.

    Yeah. You're doing great. Maybe it's better to just leave.

    ---------

    (Business AU where Tomioka has a crush on his colleague's new intern, cute-faced Tanjirou.)

    Summary

    There are dozens and dozens of words in Tanjirou’s head, old thoughts that he’s spent two years thinking about and new sentiments that have sprung up since the Pillars’ meeting. Whenever Tanjirou thinks of that moment – his face grounded into the stone path and hearing the contents of Urokodaki-san’s letter, and how Tomioka-san had looked, stoic and resolute and unwavering – Tanjirou’s heart feels overfull, brimming over with the enormity and the multitude of his emotions.

    If Tanjirou allow his brush to write what it would like, he would end up sending pages upon pages of his gratitude and his admiration to Tomioka-san.

    But Tomioka-san doesn’t seem like the sort of person who wants any spectacle to be made over his actions, so Tanjirou will refrain. Instead, he inscribes Tomioka-san’s name, each stroke of each character precisely made, and just writes the way he wrote the journals for Nezuko during her years-long sleep.

     

    (A series of interconnected fics, in which Tanjirou writes letters to the important people he meets along his journey in general, and to Giyuu specifically. Giyuu never answers with a letter, but he does respond in his own way).
