Summary
Lucanis had never been so amused watching someone eat. She paused as she considered every bite, sometimes halving it, like she worried about taking too much though none of her bites could be considered anything but diminutive. She chewed thoroughly, vigorously, always with her fingers pressed to her lips to shield herself. She savored, letting out quiet little sounds of appreciation.
“Is that thyme?” she asked suddenly.
“It is.” He was surprised she could detect it. He had used the barest sprinkling, just enough to tame the bitterness of the onions.
A stirring in the back of his skull, movement from a phantom that had held himself so strangely patient that the absence of him was more jarring than his presence. Cook for her more.
A spark ignited in his chest, a need.

Or sometimes a family is a Hunger demon suffering from a long bout of humanity, her Dalish daughter, a demonicly possessed assassin, and the kooky aunts and uncles they've amassed along the way.

Summary
“I thought it’d be you, if I’m being honest.”
“It’d be me who what?”
“Who’d go mad. Who’d go on a killing spree. Who’d just wake up one day and decide none of us are worth anything.”
“Damn, sensei. Didn’t think you thought so little of yourself.” Didn’t think you thought so little of me simmers beneath.
She wonders how Gojou, of all people, knows which lines can’t be crossed when his entire Cursed Technique is full of asymptotes.A grossly under-qualified graduate of Jujutsu High is hired to teach a class of Special Grades. They learn there is more to power than strength. It doesn't end well.

✮ SIGN LANGUAGE TEACHER/INTERPRETER (WILL TAKE ANY JOB!)Looking for any kind of work! Will tutor, teach, quiz--you name it! Recently laid off and all of the copper piping in my apartment building was stolen (unrelated to being laid off). 7+ years experience & certified to teach. Need money for the laundromat. Willing to work for any (reasonable) rate of pay. Serious inquiries only!
(You’ve had a crazy week. Somehow, nothing you've experienced recently is as strange or alarming as what you’re doing now: sitting in a café across from a panda as it asks you to teach sign language to its best friend, Inumaki Toge.)

Summary
Fenris, captain of Starkhaven’s White Guard and the dearest friend of that country’s prince, has arrived in the kingdom of Kirkwall with a retinue of noble-born guards and a carriage brimming with lavish gifts. How else to win over the hearts of a suspicious mountain people who would rather break teeth on stone than accept the prince of Starkhaven stealing away their heir princess?
But stone is all they have in their kitchens lately, and gravel in their quarries and ice in their bitter rivers, and Starkhaven sits abreast the richest lea and moorland south of the Minanter.
And Sebastian Vael, the young prince of that country, needs a wife.

Summary
Magister AU. The Fifth Blight strikes Ferelden, and Malcolm’s old Tevinter citizenship chases the Hawke family north instead of south—straight into seats of power in the magisterium. Few in Minrathous welcome such foreigners, but when an unfriendly duel lands Danarius’s prized slave squarely in Hawke’s possession, not even a magister can predict the upheaval that follows.
