Summary
Jaina has the job because her father thinks she needs to see how ordinary people live. She's not a good barista, and frankly, she's not trying very hard, because her father is Admiral Daelin Proudmoore and nobody wants to get in the middle of the ongoing father-daughter spat.
Sylvanas Windrunner is only in Boralus for a military conference. And the worst coffee she's ever had.

Summary
Written for the 2025 AU Roulette Challenge. Prompt: Heist.
Professional criminal Sylvanas Windrunner and her occasional tag-along sister Vereesa have just received a very lucrative contract. A million dollars to ensure that a certain sword gets misplaced. But that means stealing it out from under the nose of notorious mage and occasional fling Jaina Proudmoore - and her bodyguard, Liadrin Dawnsinger, who happens to be a regular partner to Vereesa.
If they're going to steal that sword... someone will have to distract two of the most dangerous women in Lordaeron. And it can't be either of them.
Fortunately, the new Gilnean girl on the crew and her girlfriend are more than happy to volunteer...

Summary
Jaina Proudmoore is the most powerful mortal mage of Azeroth, and she is sick of every other Horde Warchief turning out to be a despot like clockwork. When Sylvanas Windrunner wins her mak'gora against Varok Saurfang, Jaina's patience comes to an end - and so does Sylvanas' reign.
Sylvanas is spared execution so that she will not become a martyr to her loyalists and to Horde sovereignty, but she is demoted and placed under house arrest - and Jaina herself will be the banshee's watcher. Because if there is one other thing Jaina is sick of, it's the collapse of every community she tries to nurture, her seemingly poison touch. But this vigil over a single banshee seems like something she can manage without it wilting and crumbling in her hands.
Cut off from her resources and forced to exercise what power she still has through intermediaries, Sylvanas spends her days mostly alone under Jaina's watch. She worked to protect the Forsaken against an evil that lurks beyond Death; she tried to save her people from eradication; she tried to draw out and crush their enemies. Now, unable to pursue these enemies real or imagined, what is left for her to become?
Covers a divergent BFA and Shadowlands timeline.

Summary
“Show me what? Parlor tricks? No, my prince. I don't need a magistrix. I have a perfectly good one already. I need a ranger. I need someone who can shoot, track, and understand the forest. Parlor tricks don't protect our borders. They don't help me to keep the trolls at bay. I need an elf. I need someone who will be able to work with her sisters and at the very least, understand us.”
Kael'thas opened his mouth to object, but another voice offered its own opinion instead.
“Oh, I can shoot well enough,” the human rose from her seat as she offered...in perfect Thalassian. “And I do not think that me understanding you will be a problem.”

Summary
The Dark Times are nothing more than ancient history to the humans. Fearsome tales told to all the children of the human kingdoms of Azeroth of satyr and wyvern and trolls and all the wild, fearsome things that once ruled the land. They are almost as fabled and feared as those that tamed the wilds with magic so powerful as to be incomprehensible.
High Elves, the humans called them. Ruled by an all-powerful queen. Hidden away behind invisible barriers in a land of perpetual warmth and beauty. For the elves had tamed all things. Even nature, itself.
The betrothal of Jaina Proudmoore, the first human with magic in her veins, to a Lord of the elven royalty was a convenient way for the humans to rid themselves of the perceived threat of a dangerous young woman with a gift none of them understood. It had also solidified a long-standing, tenuous truce between them. And Jaina? Well. Jaina never felt like she belonged, anyway. She has always wanted more.
