    Summary

    “Yon Rha,” the young man said in as calm a tone as he could manage, “What is the meaning of this?”

    Blinking, the leader of the Southern Raiders glanced between Lu Ten’s face, the Water Tribe girl curled against his chest, and back again. “A lesson for the savages, your Highness. My informant at the South Pole thought she could get away with lying to me; this is my insurance against a future occurrence.”

    “By kidnapping a child?”

    Summary

    Mid-Season-One Zuko is held for ransom by Chief Hakoda. Ozai's replies to the Water Tribe's demands are A+ Parenting. Hakoda is… deeply concerned, for this son that isn't his, and who might be safer among enemies than with his own father.

    Summary

    “This is what happens when mortals steal from gods, crow,” the King snides, narrowing his eyes as he clenches the fist tight. “Now, quiet down. I think it’s about time I’ve rested, now that you’re out of the picture.”

    Somewhere in his monologue, the King doesn’t pick up footsteps somewhere behind them -- but Phil does. His ear feathers twitch.

    A soft voice calls out, “Phil?”

    --
    A self-imposed exile leads to a reunion.

    Summary

    Philza: Transatlantic, the Corvarians, all those motherfuckers who couldn’t handle us having a stronghold and good mines, they cut us off from everything in the darkest time of the year. They trapped us in the cold, in eternal night, because they figured if we starved to death, Port-aux-Francais would give them whatever deals they wanted, and they didn’t care who they were fucking killing.

    We were peaceful, before the embargo. We just wanted trade deals, we collaborated with anyone who’d help us build our railroads. We never struck the first blow. After the embargo– after that winter– we figured that wasn’t gonna work.

    Interviewer: So you adopted some new technologies.

    Philza: Yeah, we had innovations in our manufacturing, our greenhouses, our fucking sanitation– but that’s not what you’re talking about, right? Forget the emperor shit. If you’re interviewing me about this, you don’t want to hear about the greenhouses.

    You want to hear about the planes.

    Summary

    You, Synovus, are a respectably terrifying villain. Your newest apprentice/adoptee, Menace, is getting there. But now that you've had a break to focus on getting them up to speed... maybe it wouldn't be so bad if you just, stopped altogether?

    Summary

    The odyssey of Rachel Gardner, who isn't actually as Quirkless as she once thought and has zero compunctions against using that to get what she wants.

    Being stuck in Japan is a bit more of a hurdle than a death sentence and a high security institution, but she and Zack have dealt with steeper odds, she's pretty sure. Plus Ultra, as they say.

     


    note: while the overall tone is intended to be humorous, this story will involve heavy themes of coming to terms with past abuse, maladaptive coping mechanisms, suicidal ideation, irresponsible divergence from medication schedules, depictions of gratuitous violence and gore, codependency withdrawal, and strong language, among others

    Summary

    The New Hermit Order's control over Hermiton was near absolute. With agents and allies in every facet of the city, they had one of the most powerful, wealthy places in the world under their command. Doc knew for certain that everything would go exactly as he planned.

    ConCorp was the only thing standing in their way, the force that could topple all his careful work with their own operations.

    Doc would make absolutely sure they didn't.

    Summary

    On the day before Ba Sing Se falls, Katara decides two things: 1) not to stop for a cup of tea; 2) consequently, the fate of the world.

    Behind the walls, Zuko loses sleep, runs errands, contemplates treason, and drinks a lot of hot leaf juice—not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    The head games were coming to a close. Teams across the server were racing to submit their heads, to emerge as the overall victors of the games. When Cleo extended an invitation to fight in an arena against her finest warriors, to win a thousand points per kill, naturally everyone said yes.

    If only they had read the fine print.

    Summary

    This started off as a one-time shitpost I began writing while I waited for someone to get out of the bathroom. Before I realized what was happening, it had spiraled into an ongoing and deeply self-indulgent comedy gay romance novella. I'm having fun here.

    The space emperor is the tyrannical dictator of the observable universe, complacent on his palatial pleasure-planet. Little did he know that the power of gay love and an excess of pulpy sci-fi tropes would change the course of his life....... forever........

    Summary

    Through the spite of the spirits or plain rotten chance, a door that would have been better left untouched has opened. On the other hand, with Fire and Earth as one's allies, sometimes escaping is the easy part.

     

    Even the Dragon-King's temple floods.

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya used to want to be a hero. It seems a distant dream, now, after everything that he's done—after everything that he's been made to do. But it's still there. It's a dim, flickering flame, burning lower by the day.

    He doesn't have time to concern himself with that though, these days he's too focused on staying alive to think too much about what he can never have.

    Then All Might takes a job teaching at UA, and the universe says hey you know what would be fun? What if we fucked Izuku over even more than we already have? and thus, Izuku ends up in the General Education class of UA with strict instructions to report everything he can, because, thank fucking no one, he just can't catch a goddamn break.

    AKA Hisashi Midoriya is a member of one of the most notorious underground supervillain organizations, and Izuku is being forced to help them (even though, trust him, he'd really rather not). Too bad that they don't predict that Izuku's going to get adopted by half the faculty when they send him to spy on the prestigious hero academy.
