    Summary

    Iskierka has paid little attention to the human convention of marriage, which, like most human conventions, seems unnecessarily complicated and frivolous - that is, until someone deigns to explain a little more on the delightful topic of wives.
    Wives, it turns out, are amazing. Iskierka can finally understand why humans love marriage so much, if it means they get to acquire a wife - wives, after all, bring their finances into the marriage.
    Free gold.
    She needs to find Granby a wife.

    ---

    In which there are a few fundamental misunderstandings around the concept of marriage.

    Summary

    After the Battle of the Five Armies and return to home, Bilbo feels strangely restless. Well, the way his family tries to marry him off might be contributing to this. The One Ring decides it needs to understand its bearer better in order to properly manipulate him - the hobbit is proving unexpectedly good at resisting its influence.

    The road to East is long and this was never supposed to happen, but violence was never Bilbo's preference when it came to solving problems - whether he was aware that a problem existed or not. The Wise and the Mighty might say that everything has already been tried against Sauron, but Good Hobbit Sense and actually communicating somehow hadn't made that list.

    Summary

    The conception of a clutch takes longer than a human's. As always, their nerves become alive in spring after a hundred years since the last. They feel a strange tug in every direction to the only surviving dragons of Teyvat – the very, very few.
    Those remaining could respond if they wished. The chance only came once in a hundred years. Successful brood drastically decreased, becoming a near impossibility after that flash of opportunity over a week.
    Neither of them wants to know if the remaining of their kind don’t respond due to ignoring or pitying them.

    Neuvillette and Zhongli try for young after another century since their last attempt.

    Summary

    Let’s talk about being the last one left.

    No, really, think about it:

    You get a call in the middle of the night, in the little flat you can just barely afford, and you are told there has been an accident.

    Think about it, that moment– you scramble over everyone you know, everyone you love, and try to figure out where they all are that night. There are things rushing in your gut, your fingertips, your lungs, your ears– there are words in your ears as the tinny, sympathetic voice starts to tell you: it is everyone.

    Summary

    Let’s talk about a Susan who never moved on, who buried her family in English soil and spent the rest of her life trying to find her way home. She did not believe lions were kind, but she always remembered a bow in her schoolgirl hands.

    She looked in every old wardrobe she came across. It was casual, everyday– the first day in a new lecture hall, she checked the back of the coat closet. Friends had her over for Christmas dinner and she excused herself to go the bathroom, checked every cabinet and closet, and then headed back in for pudding. She went home with a cute boy she met in a smoky little pub and she checked his wardrobe before she headed home the next morning, heels in hand.

    She also went to college, got a political science degree she had to fight for. She got a byline in the local paper, a few ladies’ magazines, then a larger regional publication.

    She had mimosa brunches with friends. She read detective novels, never touched fantasy, and finally one day she stepped through an old stone archway barely thinking about it and–-

    She was standing in a treeless plain, all yellow grass and blue blue skies.

    Summary

    The canoe drifts in a sea like glass, stars reflected below as above. If not for the ripples of her oar when she dips it into the water, she would think that she was floating in space. In a way, she is.

    She’s not sure of her name. Details that are unimportant fall away when she slips between pools in the woods between worlds. What she does know is this: she serves . . . Someone. A lion? A lamb? A thorn-crowned king? She can’t remember . . .

    But his name isn’t important. Even less important than his form. What matters is that she goes where he sends her. Helps where she’s needed.

    Cynthia probably shouldn't tell this man that she's from the future.

    "I'm from the future," Cynthia says.


    Or: local history/mythology nerd (among other things) ends up in Hisui. Surely nothing can go wrong with this.

    Summary

    Five Pebbles was pretty sure his story was coming to an end, alone in the snow, covered by his collapsed superstructure with no way out.
    The world, however, gave him a second chance in the form of a weird green thing that seemed to...
    ...Throw him back in time?
    Now with memories of freezing cold and information on how to not only fix the rot, but also fix Moon as well, he promised himself he would do whatever he could to never have to relive this awful cold all alone.
    The isolation, cold, pain, and hundreds of thousands of cycles worth of thinking made him dead set on never going through that ever again. Even if that meant ripping off his umbilical before that could ever happen.

    In the meantime... The rest of the local group is confused. After all, the Pebbles they knew was a pretensious jerk who killed Moon then cut all communications, but the one that came back to them was a paranoid mess who seemed to space out every few minutes.
    ...How odd.

    Summary

    Arceus cannot comprehend man. Man is but a blip in comparison to it. Throughout it's existence, Arceus has observed galaxies and deep seas. It has watched wars been waged and civilizations fall. How is it supposed to care about one individual person? How is it supposed to react when it's told it's love isn't enough? And what is it supposed to do when a life is in its hands?

    All it can think of, it supposes. And it just has to hope that's enough.
