    Summary

    Wei Wuxian is staring up at the sky, thinking idly about the taste of Emperor’s Smile on his tongue, when Suibian jumps full force onto his stomach and cries, “A-Xian, don’t be mad!”

    The sheer force of her pounce knocks the breath out of him. The resulting pause is just long enough for Jiang Cheng, who up to this point has been laying rather peacefully next to him, to shoot up and demand, “Oh great, what did you do now?”

    To be fair, the question isn’t exactly unwarranted. Suibian looks an absolute mess: twigs stuck in her fur, dirt smeared across the white fluff of her underbelly. She’s panting up a storm, little heh heh heh gasps that haven’t edged into her normal high-pitched laughter. When her ears press back against her head, she could almost pass for pitiful.

    “Bichen hates me.”

    Wei Wuxian’s first thought is Why would Lan Zhan’s daemon hate you?, but it’s followed quickly by remembering exactly where he is, how little trouble he’s caused today, and the fact that he hasn’t seen Suibian for a few minutes.

    A grin spreads across his face.

    (Or: The most important name a cultivator will ever pick isn’t for their sword. It’s for their daemon.)

    Summary

    Sherlock's dæmon hadn't settled. Once John realised that, so much made sense. Though so much else didn't, because it practically wasn't possible.

    Summary

    So on Twitter I mentioned I’d love to read a daemon AU of MDZS.

    And Kim said “Daemon fic - can you IMAGINE what WWX's daemon has gone through?!?!?”

    And I didn’t really get it, until she added:

    “I'm actually thinking more along the lines that with cultivators, daemons are linked to their golden core.

    so.”

    And then I burst into tears. Because how could Jiang Cheng not know his “new” daemon was Wei Wuxian’s? And how could WWX hide his own loss? And a whole new world of knives unfolded before me, so here is a window into that AU, through a series of vignettes, as posted on Twitter.

    With thanks to those who were reading and responding on Twitter along with me.

    Summary

    He doesn’t have time to be afraid. He decides that there can be no hell worse than this place they called “heaven.”

    Luffy is taken from High Town and delivered to the Holy Land of Mariejois, where he spends the next five years of his life fighting for the entertainment of the Tenryuubito. With nothing but his old straw hat and a handful of promises, he holds on to the hope he'll see the open seas once more. When he is finally granted a chance to escape, the only place left for him to go is forward.

    Complete canon rewrite featuring Luffy as a former slave and what that means in the face of his quest for ultimate freedom. Loosely follows the timeline of canon but reimagines each arc.

    Summary

    Merlin has survived dragons, destiny, kings, magic-hating monarchs, and the emotional devastation of watching everyone he’s ever loved die.

    So really, he thought, a simple trip to the wizarding world for tea couldn’t possibly be that bad.

    He was wrong.

    Now he’s somehow become the unofficial emotional support adult of Hogwarts, is being hunted by the house-elves because he keeps fixing castle structural problems himself, dealing with a basilisk situation that Merlin is “pretty sure he dealt with once already, back in the 5th century.” and trying to stop Gilderoy Lockhart from deciding that he is his "professional rival."

    Merlin regrets stepping outside...
