You came to Us in Leaf-Fall, Snow-Man.
You, who walked like a pup, who smelled of the earth and the ones within.
You, who let my daughter climb your blankets, and showed teeth but didn’t eat.AKA
The little bit of the movie where The Creature has some mice friends, and what happens to them after.

Suggestions to Heaven by SleepingReader for lookitsstevie

Summary
There was a little bookshop, tucked into the corner of Soho. It was open at weird times, and when it was, and if you went in, you’d probably be met with a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed shopkeeper, who insisted on you borrowing some book or other.
Folks in town noticed something else, recently. Underneath the noticeboard offering and granting help, there was a box. Wooden, rather unassuming, looking like something a church would have for donations or purchasing a candle. It had a pen and some paper next to it.
In neat script, the box said ‘Suggestions to Heaven’ -

Summary
To the untrained eye, Geralt seemed like a grocery cashier in a bad mood.
To the trained eye, Geralt seemed like a grocery cashier who was THIS far from flipping over the register with his bare hands, before leaping over its mangled remains to bury his teeth in the throat of the next fucking idiot to ask him about artisanal cheese.Jaskier had a pretty trained eye.
A pretty trained eye and no fucks to give. -

Summary
There is no darkness, because darkness means the existence of light. There is no light. There is no nothing, because nothing would prove the existence of something. Something doesn't exist here anymore. And neither does nothing.
She does, however. Exists. For a little while longer.
She'll lock the Universe behind her when she leaves.
Yet, she feels like she's forgetting something...Dream gazes, and looks at non-existent stars. If he looks long enough, his mind will dream up hazes of new ones.
Odd, that he can still dream...Hear the sound of her wings...

Summary
'You took me off the mission, and locked me in this dungeon.' Gren told Viren, a look of polite confusion on his face.
'Duly noted. Anything else?' Viren asked.
Yes. You forgot to search me. Gren thought, mentally rolling his eyes.
Instead he said: 'Uh, no. But… No. I guess those are the main two.'
He hung his head in mellow defeat.Only after Viren left, Gren's bright blue eyes cast a clear gaze around the dungeon...
A fic of dark places, small rebellions, unlikely allies, personal kinds of magic, and the tiniest spark of hope.

Romeo and Juliet (But Juliet Is A Velociraptor) by SleepingReader

Summary
Our story begins with a warm summers day. In the city of Verona drizzling heat seeps through the buildings and into the worn stones. There are people in the marketplace bidding their wares and shouting at each other. We get the first glimpse of our main character as she goes through the marketplace alongside her nurse. But it is only a fleeting glimpse. Alas, we see only a sliver of her red and gold-trimmed dress, a tapping claw and a sharp eye. Men turned around, staring at her, eyes filled with wonder. For it is rare that this beauty is away from the watchful eyes of her mother and father.
The beauty's nurse tutted to the men.
‘Fie, you young fools. Go find your trouble elsewhere. Come, dear Juliet. Your mother has called for you.’
The nurse grabbed a claw and tugged her unprotesting charge forward. The young men, now put in their place by the old nurse, searched for someone else to look at.
And they found it.
‘Say, do you bite your thumb at us, sir?’
'I do bite my thumb, sir.' -
The Park by SleepingReader for Septemberschildren, TinyThoughts

Summary
'Ok, so...The first thing you need to know, is that this wasn't a pretty park to begin with.' the YouTuber named Jaskier said to the slightly shaky camera, teetering on its tri-pod. Jaskier looked as if he had gone through a lot. His hair was wet and there were large smudges on his face. There was a large gust of wind, and his tri-pod fell over. A loud 'FUCK' could be heard over the wind and the crashing of the camera against the dry grass.
Jaskier's intro played. A quick medieval tune, mixed in with dubstep.'Good evening. Today we will be fixing this brick wall in this run-down park.' The YouTuber named Rivia told the camera, which was being held by his teenage daughter Ciri. Ciri zoomed in on the wall. A small cartoon horse gallopped along its jagged edge, a special Ciri touch. Rivia's intro played. A single piano note, and a fluidly animated logo.
