Summary
"Closed for overnight sterilization," the sign said simply, hung over the locked door to the knight's shared quarters. "Please report to Knight Captain Cade with any concerns and for temporary quarter reassignment at the Boston Airport."
Too bad it was three A.M. and the Vertibirds had stopped running an hour ago, leaving Nora stranded and bedless aboard the Prydwen. Luckily for her, Danse always seems to have a plan. And hey, the worst thing he can do is actually get her into a bed.
Not that she would mind that at all.

Summary
“I mean it, Gavin,” Hank said. “If Price even looks at you funny, if he gives you any shit—” he took a step closer to Gavin to make sure that the younger man was listening “—you come to me immediately. Do you understand?”
Gavin didn’t answer. He began to fidget considerably by Hank's proximity, but it didn’t seem to be from anger. It was almost as if he was getting upset.
He hadn’t looked over at Hank since he started talking to him directly. Chris and Connor exchanged glances. Connor’s interest was more than piqued. Hank was acting odd. Almost… protective? Was that the word? Protective over Gavin?
“Gavin?” Hank called again and Gavin’s attention finally snapped to the acting captain.
“Yes. Hank. I understand.”
An accident at a neighboring precinct has two departments sharing office space, but Gavin and Hank have murderous beef with the guest lieutenant and Connor is determined to find out why.

Summary
He lies with words. She lies by omission. He's charm and concealment, she's intellect and investigation. A story with Deacon/Sole Survivor romance in Fallout 4, tracking through the main questline, with some detours to side quests, and a story of two broken people falling in love.

Summary
Kaiya, Skyrim's hot mess of a Dragonborn with a tortured past and a drinking problem, finds herself lost and in need of purpose after handling the Alduin threat. After some well-timed and clever pleas from Brynjolf, she decides to come out of her debauchery filled retirement and join the Thieves Guild. When she meets the dark and brooding Guildmaster, her purpose becomes clear: make that sexy SOB fall in love with her. Little does she know, she's joining the guild and tempting the Guildmaster at the worst possible time...
This story is my attempt to answer the challenge of "is it possible to write Mercer Frey into a Byronic hero?" I don't claim ownership of any of the characters in this story except Kaiya, and I tried to stick to canon as much as possible throughout. As I wrote this story, I imagined that anyone reading it would have a basic knowledge of the game and specifically the Thieves Guild questline, so that I could just write in the gray areas and not retell the story everyone already knows. My heroes are flawed and tragic, and are by no means healthy, but I hope you come to love them as much as I do.

Summary
Caleb stared at Kiri, who did not go away.
“What...er...what do you want from me?”
“Want from me?” Kiri echoed, and it was somewhat unsettling to hear a grown man’s voice coming from a 3-foot, fluffy bird-child.
Caleb ran a hand through his hair. “Ja, want from me. Is...is there something you need?”
“Something I need,” she agreed.

Summary
Caleb’s running a fever by the time the rest of the Mighty Nein find him.
He was expecting that much – he’s done this before, after all, knows that it’s a bad idea and will not go well in the long run. However, bleeding out in the middle of a forest is also not a good idea, and will also not go well in the long run. The difference is that bleeding out in the middle of a forest will go exceptionally poorly in the short run, so it’s a lesser-of-two evils sort of thing. He’s well-versed in Faustian bargains, made both unwittingly and otherwise. It’s fine.
(In which Caleb gets separated from the rest of the group, and then injured, and then some rather ill-advised DIY field medicine involving fire. The rest of the Mighty Nein are left to pick up the pieces when they find him.)

“I heard you’re a fan of calculated risks,” the Gentleman says.
Caleb’s jaw sets. “That’s true,” he says. “Are we going to play poker? It’s a children’s game where I come from.”
The Gentleman laughs, just a little. "No, I was suggesting something a little more our speed.”

Summary
"Geralt is able to scent the guilt on a lying man from ten feet away, to catch sight of half a pawprint in the undergrowth in the dead of night, to know when to lean back before the coming blade can cut through his throat. Much of it comes from his training at Kaer Morhen, where his instincts were honed and enhanced, but even more comes from his travels and experiences while walking the Path. Geralt notices things, because not noticing means death.
He does not notice the lack of singing."
Something is very wrong with Jaskier.
