Summary
Scorpius does not grow out of his blonde hair, nor do his eyes darken as he rapidly grows. If anything, he looks more and more like Draco as the months and years pass. By two, his chin is pointed. By five, their noses are identical. By seven, it’s clear that he’s inherited the Malfoy body type.
But, to Draco’s delight, he is Astoria’s son.

“It’s … hard, painful, for me to see her in your happiness. And you deserve better than that. More than that.”
“Maybe,” Scorpius shrugs, his cheeks already wet. “But I just want my dad.”

Bookmarker's Notes
“Why did we create this building network to begin with? Maybe it started as a bunch of sociopaths teaming up to get away with horrific crimes. But along the way, something special developed. We’re the only people in the world who can understand each other. If you deny one of our yanderness, then you deny all of us. Maybe the real yanderes were the friends we made along the way.”
Hits that extremely sweet spot of absolutely hysterical black comedy. Somehow both very unserious yet also quite serious--it's a ridiculous setting, with very ridiculous problems that the cast takes very seriously. Also, a very fun and compelling main character cast.

Just another day at the WAA.
In which Athena comes to terms with the last 18 years of her life, learns some new things about the people around her, and most importantly learns some new things about herself.

“Expecting your friend to treat you like a person when you ask them to help you with something isn’t an obscure wish. Would it make this better, if you severed that professional relationship?”

Bookmarker's Notes
He’d always known he was good at poking holes in people, manipulating them and using their minds against them. It was his job, what got him noticed and above all what got him back in the courts after so long. This kind of thing — using his knowledge of how people worked to make things better inside their heads — was nicer. Kinder, in a way he couldn’t often allow himself to be.

Summary
Shen Qingiqu has many complaints about his transmigration. If his shitty System let him submit complaint tickets, he would never stop writing them! From the moment he arrived, he has been forced into a glitchy, uncooperative shell, with the voice of the Scum Villain in the back of his head. But thoughts are just thoughts, and they can be ignored easily enough. Or, used to his advantage! What better way to avoid OOC point deductions than to base his responses on the man himself, right?
OR
In a moment of overconfidence, a transmigrator says precisely the wrong thing to precisely the wrong man.

“Thank you for always being there for me, Zhangmen-shixiong.”
Yue Qingyuan stops. Freezes, more like. As if he’s heard something shocking, and he needs a moment to check he heard properly. Shit, that was probably too nice. He’ll take the penalty for that—

"I know what you should do for Trucy’s cake! A layer of apple pie filling, and some sort of nut praline!” At Apollo’s questioning look, he grinned. “When we were kissing I could taste the apple you were eating.”
“Oh! Of course. No, that’s a great idea. Let me get that down.”
Reminds me of that post about how writing a fic where the lawyers have a different career works if their "obsessiveness™ over the career is the same. This does it well! I like the characterization and character dynamics in this.

Summary
The man leans back and gives a little laugh, and that’s when Apollo can see that his incisors look a bit too long and sharp to be normal or natural. Maybe he had a special kind of cosmetic surgery for them. When the man speaks, the fang-looking teeth protrude a little over his lower lip, even. They seem difficult to talk around.
Weird. Apollo looks down at his notes. “Doctor… Vladimir Acula, right?”
“In the flesh.”
Or, in which the Wright Anything Agency is hired by a very eccentric individual one innocuous Halloween.

"Wait. So you kept tossing and turning so much over whether or not Dr. Acula is actually a vampire, that you didn’t get any sleep?”
“I literally can’t tell, okay! And it’s stupid! Because I didn’t consider it as an actual possibility until you, Mr. Wright, and Trucy got this idea into my head!”
A grin crawls across Athena’s face. She leans into his side. “Would you say it’s driving you—”
“No. Stop it.”
“Batty?”

“Hm,” Alces grunted noncommittally. “And how did you get here all of a sudden, Will?” he asked with a hard edge to his tone.
Will looks a bit troubled at this question, hesitating before admitting, “I’m not sure.”
The Prince hurriedly speaks up to explain, “I brought him here! I made a wish on my book!”

There’s something white resting in his palm. It looks like a piece of a paper. Was that what had been giving him so much grief? How did it get in his throat? After a moment of pondering, Yi pushes the question out of his mind; it doesn’t matter, now that it’s out. He’s fine, he’s not sick at all.
And that’s what he tells himself, even if every breath still feels oddly weighted and heavy.

Flowers grow in Yi's lungs. This doesn't change anything.

“One holiday,” he says, “where we are not labour mediators, or forensic accountants, or the replacements for a bomb disposal squad.”
“The bomb disposal squad was fun,” Apollo says, as they find a door with green baize material lining the other side, that surely must lead to the kitchens. “I’ve never felt so alive. You must admit the sex was great, after.”
“We can have great sex whenever we want!” Klavier says. “Just once I’d like a holiday that I don’t need another holiday from immediately afterwards!”

Admittedly, it wasn’t much to go on. If he had to ask Kazuma about it, what could he honestly say? Kazuma, I’ve noticed that your jokes aren’t very funny lately, and you don’t touch me any more.

Summary
When he had frantically rushed to Apollo’s side after he’d been taken out of the wreck, he’d been asked if he was family. Probably because of the tears in his eyes (which nobody needs to know about, thank you very much!), but he’d feared that if he’d said no, he wouldn’t be allowed in the ambulance with Apollo. After all, why would his boss want to go with him to the hospital?
But he couldn’t let Apollo be left alone. He wouldn’t let him be left alone. And he’s Phoenix’s daughter’s half-brother anyway, so he wouldn’t be technically lying.
Yes, he’d said shakily. Yes, I’m family.

Apollo just looks at him incredulously. “You’ve been here the whole time?!”
“Where else would I have been?”
“Literally anywhere,” Apollo huffs, looking down at the bedsheets. “I told the nurses they could tell you to leave and they said why and I said because you didn’t really care and then they told me you came with me in the ambulance and waited with me the entire time. Ten hours! I thought you couldn’t care less about me and then you wait ten hours for me in the hospital and apparently you were so worried you cried and threw up.”

"This can’t be a prank. How could anyone have found a child who looks and sounds like Apollo at this age, and taught them to speak Khura’inese in this dialect, with this accent? How could anyone have known Nahyuta would even walk this way through the courthouse, for this encounter to occur?
Nahyuta finally drops his hand to the top of Apollo’s head. 'It’s going to be alright,' he says, with no idea if that’s true."Still new to LA and barely treading water, Nahyuta is tasked with babysitting his brother one more time.

Apollo's lips quirk upward, his eyes gentle and mild. "You -" and the smile widens a bit, settles to match the expression in his eyes. "Ema was right. You really are sweet when you want to be. "
Klavier stares. He's suddenly very awake, but he also has no idea what to say to that. He's been called a lot of things in his life, but sweet isn't one of them. He turns back to the coffee maker that isn't even half ready. Fiddles with the mugs. Behind him, Apollo breathes out a soft huff of a laugh.
"Thanks for last night."
