Summary
She’s sitting by a window, as motionless as Alexander’s mummy. Antony had wanted to mock it when he saw it on display in the city that bore its name, but then he’d been strangely moved by how even his eyelashes remained preserved.
Cleopatra must have heard the news, of course. The whole damn villa has heard. She’s a foreign woman in a city that bears no love for her. She’s a foreign queen in a city that has no love for monarchs. And Antony finds himself wishing she would sob or rage in front of him. It would be uncanny, almost like seeing his own soul finding expression through someone else’s body. Still, it would be less eerie than this; a young woman staring straight at him, her dark eyes almost never blinking.
[Or; Antony helps Cleopatra escape Rome after Caesar's murder]

Summary
"I think you're hiding something."
"Well, that sounds like a you problem."
Levi crosses his arms. He's staring at you, those skeptical grey eyes piercing your soul. "You're not denying it," he points out, eyes narrowing.
You laugh dryly. "We're in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. What the hell could I possibly have to hide?"
.
When your world flips upside down, you find yourself stuck between a rock and a hard place: a seemingly never-ending army of zombies and an ambitious group of survivors, one of which doesn't trust you at all and looks like he'll kill you in your sleep.
You're not sure which is worse. Hey, at least the undead are easier to kill...

Summary
Chance. Was it different than fate? Than fortune? Charles thought of them as synonyms, and that meant he didn’t believe in the feeble thing that was luck, either.
But that was probably because luck didn’t seem to smile on him very often.

Summary
It’s not entirely unfounded, having something like this happen. Charles knows of various stories of the past, where different drivers’ energies don’t mix well and it causes chaos. He’s even heard of magic being used to sabotage in F1.
Charles always thought these were just stories, until he got his seat.

"If she squinted her eyes, tilted her head, and denied reality, Jyn Erso could convince herself Cassian Andor was still in love with her."

Summary
She dies on the beach, in his arms. It isn’t the first time. It isn’t even the second. “We’re trapped,” she tells him, blood bubbling up between her lips. His fingers spasm on her wound and he shushes her, his voice shaking. She draws a shuddering breath that rattles in her lungs. “It’s my turn, but it’ll be yours, next. We’re trapped here.”
Or: Jyn has to keep reliving Scarif until she gets it right.

Summary
"It’s my face," Jyn thought miserably, tucking her chin into her collar even more than it already was. It almost always was. Ducked low, like a caged animal. "That’s why he avoids me."
Cassian and Jyn survive the beach on Scarif. That doesn't mean they're unscathed.

Summary
It all starts because of Keyleth: Keyleth, who turns his apartment into a greenhouse within a month of knowing him despite his antisocial demeanor; Keyleth, who gathers up his awards show after-party invitations and plans out their itinerary like a travel agent; Keyleth, who walks up to her favorite band sitting at a bar and says, Hey, I love your music.
But fame isn't quite so bad, Percy says to Vex with a smile, if it introduced him to someone like her.

Summary
They stopped, and Wheeler put her hands into the pockets, considering. “Well, no. You can do impressive stuff only knowing the basics. But it’ll only do you good trying.”
She said that like she had a specific person in mind, like she was a witness. And Neil understood. He understood that it was a story that started its pinwheeling in a past where he was absent; from then on, many things were better to keep as secrets, and he had to earn trust if he wanted to have it.
(Yet another retelling of what happened post-film)

Summary
The last part comes out far gentler than the first and she lays a hand on his face. She is not angry, but she is sad—not for herself, but for him. Because at the moment the great King Ragnar, is anything but.
“I did not tell you because I did not want you to know. The seer told me I would never have another child. This baby will die.”
The seer. Ragnar’s jaw clenches.
He knows when she conceived. He remembers it vividly. The only time in seven years she had allowed him entry. The night before he became a king. The night when they were still equals, still earls. The night he managed to talk both Lagertha and Aslaug into his bed.
