    Summary

    They call her the West Coast hope, the filly with a heart twice the size and a stride built to swallow cities. From foggy mornings at Claiborne to the bright, punishing lights of Belmont and beyond, Sham learns what it means to chase history and be remembered as second best.

    AKA a deep dive into my Uma Musume for the race horse Sham, rival to Secretariat in the 1973 Triple Crown races

    Summary

    Talia took her son and fled the League to Gotham and her husband's side. She thought that their little family would be the only thing she cared for. To be fair, she wasn't entirely wrong.

    Apparently, her husband's habit of finding and adopting stray children is infectious.

    Summary

    She's musing about the past, as she does in spades these days, staring at her own painted visage like she can see him in the brushstrokes if she looks hard enough, and she finds herself thinking; so this is how it felt.

    And then. She stops.

    Ah, Floette thinks again, with more intent. With more horror, looming grief and sinking dread. So that's how it feels.

    (Or; they are alike in many ways.)

    He catches sight of it out of the corner of his eye, and even all these years later, he can't help but see the worst mistake of his life haunting his every step.

    He doesn't flinch.

    Floette, kindly, does not argue otherwise.

    Summary

    "She worked hard at her research, all while caring for me when I was just a kid. It was a lot for her to handle on her own... Mom's hard work helped make the Wild Zones and everything possible. But she burned herself out doing all that. In the end, she had to go to some faraway region to try and rest."

    "I see... And I suppose that was where she..."

    "... Yeah."

    Taunie's long-estranged uncle shows up in Lumiose City. He doesn't come bearing the answers she seeks. Instead, he's got a theory he's been working on. Listen closely, he says. As the rest is important.

    Summary

    It was all the time that Dawn needed to fiddle with her Holocaster, and what was projected next completely threw Corbeau's world off-balance. "So, let’s cut to the chase: I believe you've seen this artifact before, yes?"

    How could Corbeau ever forget that framed picture? The ancestral figure depicted in it was the kind you would vaguely remember learning in elementary history class, recognizable in all except for name, but having Dawn here gave Corbeau the hint he needed: it was Professor Laventon, immortalized in the purple, knitted beanie and white lab coat that he had donned throughout his Hisui expedition, the Galaxy Team logo drawn to stand out even with the test of time.

    Well, this was the most interesting turn of his night yet, Corbeau mused.

    Or: in the tail-end of a luxurious gala, a hasty plan was hatched between two, grieving and lost mentees to bring home a stolen painting, one that held more than just history in its value. Corbeau never thought that he would execute it with the missing Champion Dawn of the Sinnoh region, and that a genuine camaraderie could be born with a mere stranger.

    Summary

    Team MZ has made a tradition of throwing a little get together at Hotel Z once a month since the incident with Ange to bring everyone who saved the city together again. Corbeau makes the effort to show up every time. Now, a year after everything, someone he would rather not see is back in Lumiose. L sits alone at the edge of the courtyard, and Corbeau forces himself to have a conversation with the man with his mentor's face.

    Summary

    >>Corbeau had heard the rumours before, of course; this city was a real chatterbox, it couldn't keep any secrets to itself. But even as he talked with the new member of Team MZ about Lysandre, he had avoided the subject, as if it was as simple as wanting to repay him. As if he could describe in any concise terms what he was feeling for him.
    He had thought, naive as it was, that he would have more time to prepare for this moment, just to realize that an eternity wouldn't have been enough.<<

    Corbeau confronts the man who had saved him in his youth, just to decide a decade later he wasn't worthy of living in his world of beauty. It goes as well as one expects.

    Summary

    It has all the trappings of a crooked back-alley deal: two shady strangers, a secluded area, a one-of-a-kind valuable traded for cold, hard cash. Except the bag's contents are anything but contraband, it changes hands in broad daylight, and there's more to both parties than what their reputations may suggest.

    Life has ways of making the strangest events become everyday truths, and that which seems mundane isn't always so. For every answer there is another question, for each failure there is a victory, and those seeking family may find themselves gifted with more than they anticipated.

    Summary

    Link grows up playing Dungeons & Dragons with his neighbor Zelda, her moms, and a few other friends. It makes for the best few years of his life, before the DM is murdered and the group falls apart. Years later, in college, Link and Zelda reconnect—and, alongside a few new friends, start up a new campaign, not expecting anything more from it than maybe a bit of closure. Little does anyone know, a much larger conspiracy has been afoot for almost a decade now...

    Gray eyes.

    It’s always those with gray eyes, isn't it?
    ...

    Zygarde has met many humans over the course of their lifetime, and yet very few make an impact strong enough to remember. It's strange that all four of them from this decade have something in common.
