    Summary

    Four years after the Battle of New York, Clint has created a stable life for himself and his young daughter, free of the dangers of SHIELD work.

    The Winter Soldier turned himself in to the Avengers, expecting a death sentence or lifetime of imprisonment. Instead, he found absolution and an invitation to join the team. He is still adjusting to life as an Avenger when he meets Clint Barton and his daughter.

    The young man that Bucky Barnes used to be was wholeheartedly enthusiastic about meeting his soulmate, but Bucky is not sure there’s a place for him in his soulmate’s life anymore.

    Clint has spent his whole life dreading meeting his soulmate, drawing false conclusions from the hurtful words that were spoken in haste. They are both drawn to each other and are willing to give this a try, but will have to work together to overcome the shadows of their past.

    Excerpt:

    It’s one of the largest soulmarks Bucky has ever seen. The script in Bucky’s neat cursive handwriting starts at the crest of one shoulder and arcs below Clint’s collarbones to end at the crest of the other shoulder, golden letters that no tattoo ink has ever been able to replicate.

    What kind of idiot are you?

    Summary

    Calamity Ganon has been defeated, at long last. Perhaps it is a miracle of Hylia's making, or perhaps it is merely a pleasant side effect of Sheikah science mixing with Zelda's magic. Whatever the cause, the fact remains that Link's fellow champions are, miraculously, back!

    Or, at any rate, three of them are back from the dead: Mipha, Urbosa, Daruk. It stands to reason that Revali too would have returned from the grave. But where is he?

    (In completely unrelated news, the bard Kass has recently taken on an apprentice: another Rito who can't recall a thing about his past, not even his own name.)

    Summary

    This is it.

    It’s the only thought running through Miles’ head as he closes his eyes to whatever violent, likely cruel fate his counterpart is about to inflict upon him.

    The first few minutes after he woke up, as he watched Uncle Aaron- alive, breathing- moving around in the darkness, his thoughts were racing. Running around his head in almost incoherent clusters. Snippets of ‘how’, ‘why’, and ‘amigonnadie?’ among other, more abstract thoughts of hurt and happiness tinged with the bitter aftertaste of fear.

    Summary

    Anakin makes slightly better choices, Obi-Wan is a Mess™ and Padmé deserves none of this. AU from Mustafar onward with liberal manipulation of canon to culminate in some angsty, fluffy, domestic fix-it because we all deserve better.

    I'm going to fix everything Lucas broke if it kills me.

    He had always thought that he knew how his last battle, this battle, would go. How his end would play out.

    It's nothing like that.

    Shanks interjected, “It’s just hard to find someone who can...”

    “Keep up with you,” Mihawk finished. “I know.”

    I could keep up with you, Shanks’s mind volunteered, and then he knew the answer to Benn’s question. Oh.

    Summary

    The day before he fought Ganon the first time, he’d visited all the people he’d come to know and all the Champions waiting for release. He had thought it would be the last time he’d ever see them. He’d even made peace with it.

    Now, that yesterday is nearing a month ago for Link, and he is so tired.

    “I did,” he says. “I went. Fought Ganon.”

    “— Did you have to retreat?”

    “…Didn’t fight it today. Five days ago. And ten. But also today.”

    Link defeats the Calamity. And then he faces it again and again and again and again—

    Summary

    It’s 1959, and Hob Gadling is working at a London auction house, amazing his colleagues with his uncanny knowledge of art and artifacts from the 14th century on. When he gets the assignment to catalogue a family library at a place called Fawney Rig, he looks forward to a working vacation in the country. What he finds is a house with a preternatural chill where odd disturbances happen daily, an ornate carved door with a secret clearly hidden behind it, and visions of his mysterious stranger every time he turns around.

    Summary

    She tilts her head, and the firelight catches her hair in a way that makes him think of the stranger from the White Horse with his ruby and –

    Hob blinks, looking at the woman again. There’s no physical characteristics tying her to the stranger from that night, her hair a shock of deep red where his was dark as night, him pale as moonlight and her tanned from days working outside, his eyes a blue that Hob didn’t have a name for and hers an unfathomable darkness. Yet something about the woman’s carriage reminds Hob of the stranger.

    -

    Dream visits Hob outside of their hundred-year agreement, but always in a different shape. What he doesn't realize is that Hob always knows that it's him.

    “We’ll just commit to the buddy system,” Nile says.

    “Buddy system?” Booker asks, eyebrows raised.

     

    OR: Nile goes clubbing, gets lost in Ireland, learns to swing dance, dies in Portugal, and falls in love. Mostly in that order.

    Summary

    “I’ll guard you for a night,” Hob says, “and say I please you, you can either pay me for a day’s work, or keep me on ‘til you reach where you’re going.”

    “Do you know the way to Canterbury?” the lord asks, and Hob nods.

    “Oh, yes. It’s a few days’ ride, not more than three or four, by my memory.”

    “Then you shall have three days to please me, Robert Gadling.”

    In 1389, known mercenary and bandit Hob Gadling offers to escort a strange lord to Canterbury, and wagers that he can guess the man's name in three days.

    Summary

    He doesn’t know why he does it.
    It’s perhaps the biggest mistake of all his 500 years on God’s green earth.
    But in that strange, treacle-slow moment on the wet street with the rain falling around him, with His Stranger’s arm shaking under his fingers - God, has he ever even laid hands on him before? Hob can’t recall - it seems like the only obvious course of action.

    Hob grabs him by the lapels of his black coat and drags him into a desperate, needy kiss.

     

    Or: Hob kisses His Stranger in 1889, and does nothing but regret it for the next 133 years.

    Summary

    “Soulmates.” Hob says, simply, and it feels like old magic to speak it into existence, to forge the bond between them into words at last. “You and I are soulmates. And I think that you are lonely, that you need and miss me when we’re apart... just as much as I miss you.”

    “Soulmates.” The Stranger repeats, flatly, his sonorous voice barely a rumbling growl. “Hob Gadling, we are not soulmates.”

     

    Or: Hob has known that Dream is his mildly star-crossed soulmate since their first meeting in 1389, but believes they have a mutual understanding not to acknowledge it; Dream, meanwhile, was under the impression that the Endless have no soulmates whatsoever, up until their sixth meeting in 1889.
    Finding out they're wrong comes as a bit of a shock to both of them.

    Summary

    One day, in spring, he comes to the Inn.

    Hob looks up and he’s there, and the relief is blinding. He thinks tu m’as manqué, fuck, because you were missing from me feels more true than I missed you ever has. English missing was ruined for him the moment he learned the French way of it. Longing is meant to be a reflexive verb.

    It would be a bad faith translation, even for him. He tells himself this is why he doesn’t say it.

    He thinks at last, and that’s a doable one. So he smiles, says, “You’re late.”

    Summary

    Today has been strange and, considering the majority of Bucky’s life, when he says strange, Bucky really means that.

    It’s not one big thing that makes it strange. He’s fought giant interdimensional squid monsters while standing on the shoulder of the statue of liberty. Things like that don’t faze him any more. It’s the little things that are making the back of his brain itch. All the little things that are starting to add up. It’s that uncanny valley feeling: everything just a little left of normal, not enough for you to say exactly what's wrong, but enough that you know something isn’t right.

    And he’s pretty sure it’s got something to do with Clint Barton.

    Summary

    “You bring me low,” Dream whispers against his neck, licks along the reddened lines he’s left. “You make me burn for you. I enter this place and feel what it is to approach godliness."

     

    Hob Gadling plants some poppies, pays his servers overtime, and navigates the complicated maze that is an anthropomorphic representation of dreaming with PTSD.

    Takes place after "aulon raid."
