I cannot be him, but I can be me (is that enough?) by ira_writes

Summary
And despite that... Kaveh is… “Lovesick?”
Kaveh’s hands move to cover his face, palms muffling his words as he mutters, “It’s—not quite like that.”
“Well, the ‘sick’ aspect is accurate, at least.”
“No shit,” Kaveh snorts. “The ‘love’ component, though—it’s, uh—”
“You’re not in love?”
He coughs. “The greenhouse in my lungs begs to differ. I—it’s more that my body is mourning a love it knows can’t ever be requited.”
For all the negative feelings Alhaitham’s encountered over the past twelve hours, the sensation that creeps through him now is…
Unfamiliar.
Unknowable.
Despite all the languages he’s fluent in, Alhaitham is unable to conjure a word or phrase with which he can immediately label it. He just knows that whatever this feeling is, it’s unbelievably unpleasant. Like his body is stationary, yet his internal organs are plummeting into the Abyss.
“You love someone who doesn’t love you back?” he asks after a moment.
Kaveh has Hanahaki. That much is known. But who he loves, and whether Alhaitham will be able to save him, is up in the air.

Summary
“Are you a Sentinel?” he blurts, before remembering Skirk's reticence to questions.
She doesn’t stop moving, but she does glance at him from the corner of her eye.
“No,” she says. “But you are a Guide.”
Ajax blinks, faltering. The woman does not stop there.
“You have also been blessed by Celestia. That Vision was next to you when I found you. To come into both blessings while in the Abyss.” She pauses. “You’re either extremely fortunate, or perhaps extremely cursed.”
“A Guide?” Ajax’s brow furrows. “No, I must be a Sentinel.”
------
Ever since Ajax was young, he has dreamed of being a Sentinel like his father. With heightened senses and strength, he could easily be a renowned adventurer, able to make a name for himself.Life does not quite work out that way.

Summary
Shen Qingqiu has a bare moment of dismayed comprehension before Luo Binghe is moving again, releasing his hold on Xiu Ya only so that he can swirl around Shen Qingqiu in a blindingly fast movement, getting behind Shen Qingqiu and using his now-free right arm to pin Shen Qingqiu against him, Shen Qingqiu’s back to his chest.
“Caught you, Shizun,” Luo Binghe says in Shen Qingqiu’s ear, and then he tips them backward through the portal.
Two years after the Immortal Alliance Conference, Luo Binghe reappears in the Human Realm—directly on Qing Jing Peak, in order to kidnap Shen Qingqiu to the Demon Realm. Little does Shen Qingqiu know, this isn’t the right Luo Binghe.
The Original Luo Binghe has finally, after years of searching, found a kind Shizun of his own to kidnap and keep in his own universe—and this time, no one is going to take Shizun from him.

The Last Will and Testament of Cazador Szarr by AbigailMoment
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)
05 Jan 2026
Tags
Summary
"First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."
As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.
"Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.
"Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.
"Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."
Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.
"A what?" he asked.

Summary
Liu Qingge has been dosed with pollen, and Binghe knows how this goes. Except, perhaps he doesn't, because the pollen will pass on its own, no need for dual cultivation. With a catch. Well, it's only a month, and then things will go back to normal. And he definitely wants that. He knows what he wants, he's very in touch with his feelings, thank you very much.
Liu Qingge knows this will be an embarrassing and agonizing month, but he just has to get through it, and then he can go back to avoiding the happy couple. No need to deal with any messy feelings, fraught pasts, or complicated relationships. He's fine. It's fine. Everything is fine.

Summary
Urianger deserved far better than Thancred could ever hope to give him. That was why he wouldn’t tell him—about the flowers, about his love. He’d breathe and bear every one of his sins and his mistakes and his lies, all for he who was too good, for he who was too pure—
(For blossoms were all Thancred would ever be.)

Summary
“Would the honorable Mobei-Jun agree?”
“WHAT!?”
There’s a loud crash, and everyone’s attention instantly flicks over to Shang Qinghua standing off the side. He seems to have dropped some large platter of something - he should not be doing something so lowly as serving things, he’s not a servant any longer. But it is very typical of him to mindlessly reach out and start doing whatever unfinished tasks he sees before him, grumbling all the while as if someone is forcing him into it. Right now, he looks gobsmacked. Pale and wide eyed and gaping in shock, looking shaken to his core.
“Marriage!?” Shang Qinghua demands, his voice high and strangled.

Summary
“He needs a protector, Hubert,” she whispered.
And it all clicked into place – like a dagger’s sharp point finding the soft gap between the third and fourth rib.
Ferdinand von Aegir – the Prime Minister of the Adrestian Empire, reformed and reunited Fodlan, one of the most valuable people alive – was grievously injured, unable to return to the safety of the nest, and protected only by a small military troop comprised of his own Astral Knights and Hubert’s Sorcery Engineers, with the fierce Faerghan wintertime winds worsening each day.
All within arm’s reach of Arundel territory – and the evil thing who governed it.When Ferdinand von Aegir comes under threat, Hubert von Vestra sets out to keep him from harm - and alive. But some forces are beyond even Hubert's control, and as a Faerghan blizzard rages on Ferdinand's fate falls into uncertainty.

Summary
A mere month before the royal tour- in which the crown princess of Khura'in will visit each of the seven realms before she ascends to the throne- Nahyuta Sahdmadhi, royal regent, has a problem. The princess, already troublesome at the best of times, has become obsessed with tales of the Jackdaw- a notorious outlaw who has taken the realms by storm, his exploits inspiring an entire cottage industry of trashy penny dreaduls.
Still, so long as Nahyuta can keep the public from finding out that their future queen is a devoted fan of a violent vigilante- in fact, so long as he can avoid the topic of said vigilante altogether- everything should be perfectly fine.
Avoidance of the Jackdaw, however, is about to become nigh impossible.

Summary
"Is there something Tianlang-Jun needs?" Mobei-Jun grits out between his teeth. He is speaking like this more and more frequently recently.
"I simply desire the chance to teach someone younger than me the proper way to woo a human, considering I'm one of the few demons who has ever managed it." That gives Mobei-Jun pause. Tianlang-Jun notices. "Considering the only models you may have for this kind of relationship would be myself and that son of mine, I had assumed you may want help. Unless, of course, you would prefer a relationship more like the one my son has built with his teacher."
"You have successfully courted a human."
"Famously, I'd say. Or infamously, I suppose, depending on who you're asking. But it certainly did happen. You can look to the emperor of our realm, if you have any doubt."

Tianlang-Jun comes to visit the Northern Desert Palace. Tianlang-Jun is very bored. Tianlang-Jun finds a way to entertain himself.

Summary
The vampire's eyes are wide and round, full of amazement. They dart wildly around the sights below, as if trying to see everything at once. The lights of the city reflect upon his face, soft shadows dancing across his elegant features. The very tips of his fangs are visible from his parted lips.
The radiance of the city pales in comparison.
✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧
Two months after the brain falls, Baldur's Gate has picked up most of the pieces. The heroes that saved Faerûn have been there through most of it, helping the city get back on its feet. But now it's time to move on. Old lives and families to return to. Gale is going back to his tower in Waterdeep, back to the quiet, back to being alone; or at least, that was the plan. But plans change.
This is a story about falling in love.

Summary
Hubert could not pinpoint the exact moment he awoke.
To put it simply, one day he had existed as his normal self – his new self, of a young boy befitting his young, childish mind and all his stupid fantasies – and the next morning he had awoken to the startling, thundering echo of a whole other life’s memories in his head, filling it to the brim, to the point of bursting. In just one rise of the sun, a new dawn, Hubert had awoken as his old self. A von Vestra, Minister of the Imperial Household, Imperial Spymaster, murderer, an assassin, a-
A dead man – a corpse broken upon the front steps of the Imperial Palace.Hubert died and awakes to a new world without Crests or the Church. But the Adrestian Empire lost the war, his flock were shot from the sky, and her Majesty's vision of a new dawn was never brought to the horizon. Only Hubert remembers - it is up to him to fix his failures and bring their futures to flight. But Hubert was always afraid of heights, and a return of a lost love sends him into freefall.
