    Summary

    “I’ll ask again. Is there anything you want?” Historia asks.

    A battle of wills between them, but Mikasa could never win against her queen. So this is how Mikasa falls: an autumn leaf, stuttering before its surrender to the merciless winter wind. A flickering stalk of grass to wildfire. Mikasa to Historia.

    “…You,” Mikasa says hoarsely, the earth crumbling beneath her. "Just you." Always you.

    “Then you will have me."

    Summary

    It always comes back to this, no matter how many times you look away from it: you, and him, and the breath between you.

     

    (A sort of 5+1 from Marion's POV – through childhood, the war, Candela, and whatever comes next.)

    Summary

    Caleb must be a Duke for this mission, so that leaves Molly to be his... companion.

    You may be wondering: is this the kind of indulgent writing that includes sleeping furs, large tankards of mead, and snuggling for warmth?

    Dear reader, it is exactly that.

    Summary

    “Kuroo-sensei is one of the greatest voices in modern Japanese literature,” he asserted, looking down on Tetsurou like he was garbage, while unknowingly singing his praises. “He’s put out a more impressive and consistent catalog at twenty-seven than most authors will ever achieve throughout their entire career.”

    The air escaped Tetsurou’s lungs, exhaled with shaky, incredulous laughter. He felt himself leaning forward, propping a hand on his thigh, meeting those devoted golden eyes head on.

    “That’s some high praise,” he remarked. “You must really like this guy.”

    “I don’t like him,” Tsukishima snapped, offended at the accusation. “I love him."


    Award-winning author and notorious recluse Kuroo Tetsurou is suffering from a stubborn bout of writers block.

    The only cure? One sharply-opinionated and godly Tsukishima Kei, who holds his beloved Kuroo-sensei's word as testament. It's love at first sight for Tetsurou, but his darling Apollo develops an immediate disdain for the obnoxious stranger intruding upon his book club.

    Oh, if only he knew...
