Summary
“Come on, please,” a little voice begged. “Please don’t die.”
Zoya struggled to flutter open her frozen lashes. “What…”
Above her leaned a girl with tears pearling from her eyes — and they were such beautiful eyes, dark as trees and oceans in the night. She looked Zoya’s age or thereabout, with silky black hair and a pale, delicate face.
And, impossibly, the girl was glowing.
--------------
An AU in which Alina gets taken to the Little Palace at 13, and her relationship with Zoya ends up following a very different route.Bookmarked by canvasghost

Summary
For as long as centuries can recall, the four corners of the Mirror Realm remained in a peaceful balance between one another.
However, when a terrible threat looms over the frosted vampire lands of YoRHa and drives a wedge between their people, 2B, a once proud warrior of her coven, chooses to abandon all hope and sets out on a suicide mission to the werewolf lands of Aspis.
But rather than escaping her accursed fate, a chance encounter with a lost memory of her past quickly causes her to spiral into another.

Sometimes, all four of them have sex. More often than not, some combination of the four of them have sex; after all, they are rarely all in the same place at the same time, called away to their various duties. It’s not perfect, by any means; but it is them, and it is good.
Or, four perspectives on a relationship between Thayet and Jon and Alanna and George, and an epiloque.

Summary
Jude steps forward. Her face hardens, and she acts entirely on impulse, channeling her hurt and rage into a single curt sentence.
“I’m calling you out.”
Cardan’s bearing shifts in a manner that is nigh unreadable. Perhaps it is an expression of some emotion reserved entirely for Faeries — too old and nebulous for mortal hearts to grasp. Or perhaps Jude is too blinded by her own suppositions to define it with any real degree of accuracy. The former seems more likely.
It takes a long moment before Cardan's tongue can once again manage speech.
“Do you truly think that is a good idea?”
Though Jude could lie, she instead chooses to speak truth. “No."

In which Sophie breaks many hearts in the process of planning a party by ToolaLoola
Fandoms: Howl's Moving Castle - All Media Types, Howl Series - Diana Wynne Jones
12 Aug 2023

Summary
Alternate world where Sophie never turned old, and the flamboyant Wizard Howl has been galavanting around Market Chipping for some years now. The young ladies are no longer afraid of him, but Sophie at least is very wary, especially since every time he's around trouble is not far behind (sometimes taking the form of the witch of the waste.)
Still, she has grown somewhat fond of the wizard, but she knows more than to listen to his flowery words. She has more sense than that.
But when Sophie bites off more than she can chew by agreeing to plan the Market Chipping Winter Solstice Ball, and becomes quite by accident (by way of magic) the most wanted lady in town, Howl becomes more trouble than he's ever been before!
(Also known as: Howl has a longtime crush on Sophie, but hasn't given up being a flirt! But starts to panic once Sophie becomes super popular! Now he's trying desperately to either foil the other men's plans, or woo Sophie! And of course Sophie doesn't believe a word he says lololol)
NOTES: Howl is closer to Sophie's age in this version. Currently, Sophie is 23, and Howl is 25
