Summary
This year's Summer Solstice is a special one for the Kingdom of Abyssus: Princess Lumine will be entertaining suitors from foreign nations near and far to find her future betrothed. All she has to do is get through the celebrations, hope to find a match that she might actually like, and pray that Aether doesn't threaten international relations to defend her honor. She is more than capable of getting through it in one piece, with her sanity in tact.
Just as long as she doesn't strangle her brand-new, personal bodyguard.

Summary
Her hands did not shake. Not as it notched an arrow and let it fly, not once. Not when she had to touch the fence before she checked if it was live. Not when she had to bundle herself and her brother against the pouring rain and raging wind, their leaky roof and paper thin walls doing almost nothing against the elements. And she lived. She and Aether lived. Her hands did not shake because it knew the roughness of leather and the bite of the edge of a knife. Her fingers knew the burn of a bowstring, the teeth of rough wood, and every splinter of animal bone. Her voice was small but clear. She’d decided to do this months ago.
“I volunteer as tribute.”

Summary
The moment Marinette laid eyes on Adrien Agreste, she knew she had flipped. Here’s to her wishful thinking that he’d eventually flip too.
Alternatively: Adrien’s only reaction to Marinette’s intensity is to be intensely nervous and intimidated.
Based on the book/film "Flipped."

Summary
Diluc couldn't believe this. Maybe he shouldn't have taken her attraction to him as a given.
"So you're saying you're no longer interested in me romantically?"
Lumine's eyes blew open. "Don't say it so directly!" She fiddled her thumbs. "But yes..."
Perhaps he had waited too long to return her affections.
***
In which Lumine is commissioned to protect Diluc, and Diluc reluctantly begins to accept her help.
