Summary
“All right, then, Hayward. We have a dilemma on our hands. I’m done with my coffee. I’d just as soon send you back over the water and let you go, but the ferryman is at the prayer-meeting and so’s anybody else I’d trust to mind you. So until we decide what to do with you, you’re going to have to await judgment somewhere safe.”
“What? You’re throwing me in jail?”
“You did come here to kill Brother Faulkner,” Carpenter says mildly. “So there’s no use in getting all indignant. And anyway, this is an abbey of two hundred people. We don’t have a jail. What we do have is an old root cellar that bolts from the outside. We throw the drunks in there if they go overboard on the rice wine at a feast. It’s not as bad as it sounds.”
“You’ve got to be kidding me,” Hayward says.

The Fire Nation offers Prince Zuko’s hand.
The Water Tribes offer Princess Yue’s.
Sokka is apparently the only person in the world who has a problem with any of this.

Summary
Jason slowed as a lone figure began to take shape on the side of the quiet stretch of highway. A hitchhiker. Rolling down his window as he came to a stop, Jason was face to face with the man. “Where ya tryna get to?”
[-]
Maybe Jason’s finally lost his fucking mind. That was it. That had to be it. A few crayons short of a box. Off his rocker. He’s got bats in the fucking belfry.
He was tired. Life was taking a toll. And he wasn’t going tonight.

Driving her blade into that white man’s chest was supposed to be the most fulfilling moment of her life, avenging both her and her mother and accomplishing what she swore her entire being to. Though she realised it could never truly satisfy her.

Summary
The day after Scar breaks up with Grian, the dead come back to life. Knowing that venturing out alone is a death sentence, the sudden onset of the apocalypse forces them to stick together despite the tensions between them. In the wreckage of the world, they're forced to survive side-by-side, coming to terms with the fact that—try as they might—there's no one they trust more than each other.
“Go!” Grian shouts as the monster charges, putting his whole force into the blow.
Scar watches, frozen stiff as Grian fights until blood and gore and viscera mark the creature up like a Pollock painting.
“What are you waiting for?!” Grian snaps when he finally notices that Scar is still standing there. He grips his weapon tight and attacks a final time, slamming the zombie down—good and dead—and standing panting over top of it, strained but victorious. He starts rushing from the scene, calling back for Scar over his shoulder. “Run!”
And in a way that’s as familiar to him as breathing, Scar chases after him.

Summary
What do you get when you pair a conman, a questionably feathery approximation of a bird, and a lack of communication?
A very undefined 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨, that's what. A 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 that has about a hundred intricacies to it, and somehow, it works. Which it shouldn't, because a war was a rather awful place to start figuring out who you wanna smooch. But then again, this is Hermitcraft.

Now, Scar knows very well that Cub can be just a little protective of him. Just a smidge.
This, as you can imagine, isn't the best thing to pair alongside Grian. To which everyone in a hundred mile radius could tell had a lot more going on with Scar than "friendly banter" during the Mycelium War. Granted, they weren't exactly doing much in the way of hiding it.

Summary
When visiting the campus for Gotham University, Percy and Annabeth couldn't help but feel something...wrong about the whole city. The Greek kind of wrong. Their decision made for them, they decide to investigate as they go to school. But before they can really start their investigation, something goes wrong, and they suddenly have a new objective. One that might put them on the wrong side of the local vigilantes.
Jason Todd's new neighbor has something off about him, something that Jason just cant put a finger on. And as they actually start to become friends, and Jason spends more time around the enigma that seems to be Percy Jackson, he comes to the only logical conclusion.
Percy has to be an assassin.

Summary
Dan once told him that there is every color star except for green. Green is Phil’s favourite color. Secretly. Even more than blue, but he tells people it’s blue because it’s what they expect from him. Like dark hair. There are never stars in London and no green stars in the universe and if Phil can’t find anything in the night sky how is he ever supposed to gather the stars up to dye them green with the bath towels?
Dan stirs gently but stays asleep. His movement is just further proof that Phil is breaking everything, even the empty shards of cruel ceramic sky.
or: musings on phil’s anxiety, self image issues, and new hair + how dan loves him through it all.

“I know this is gunna sound crazy, but I think you're haunted, dude!"
The blond guy stops abruptly, right in the middle of the pool of yellow from the streetlight. He doesn't turn around.
"What the hell did you just say to me?" he asks, voice low and carrying.
"You're haunted," Eijirou repeats, relieved this time, "or, I dunno, something? Point is, you've got some weird energy going on, man, something is up with you, and I want to help."
"Get the fuck away from me."
Kirishima Eijirou is UA's best ward and shield mage. After a routine assignment, he runs into a stranger with incredible untapped magic, and the hurting, corrupted little ghost who haunts him.

You are a kitsune; one of the great foxes, master of knowledge and magic, who knows so much and yet so little of the world. Pain and sorrow and anger cloud your mind, and they make it so your heart does not remember things like kindness or joy or love.
And then, you meet a tanuki.

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.
