Summary
A crumpled letter that seems to be written in a shaky hand. Whether or not it was ever delivered to the intended recipient is anyone’s guess, and although the author is technically anonymous, many suspect it to be the Hero of Ferelden—who’d been virtually impossible to trace by anyone other than Sister Nightingale—who had disappeared a scant few years before this vellum had been discovered.

Summary
Zéwú-jūn is sitting beside him, and what had once been a respectable distance between them has gradually decreased to the point where their thighs are almost touching. His smile is radiant and he’s prone to laughing over the slightest little thing that amuses him; something Jiāng Chéng is quickly becoming fascinated by.
Lán Xīchén is not so free with his smiles anymore; his eyes don’t sparkle with repressed mirth. His serenity seems to be a balancing act between coldness and calm, whereas before...
Well. Jiāng Chéng remembers the riotous dance his heart had done when the great, virtuous Zéwú-jūn acknowledged him way back then.
Seeing him like this almost makes Jiāng Chéng feel like a teenager again; he’s threaded through with bittersweet nostalgia and vicious longing.
It’s with the past laying heavy and thick on his tongue that he says “I used to have something of a puppy crush on you.”

Summary
Lea [2:18 PM] we need to talk.
Nothing good ever comes out of that phrase. Isa’s been obsessing and overanalyzing that text for three hours; he’s on his way to Lea’s apartment after working a shift with the Restoration Committee.

Summary
It goes like this: Lea and Isa, best friends since childhood, together through it all, together until they weren’t, ripped apart at the seams in a sick parody of an open heart surgery and sewn back together empty inside. Renamed, rebirth. The sun and the moon, knocked out of alignment. The sun’s on a one-way trip to supernova. The moon’s found himself a new planet to orbit around; the Superior and his adjutant, spinning out of Axel’s reach.
Axel burns. Axel goes out with the intensity of a fallen star, burning and brilliant, blindingly bright.

A piece loosely inspired by the tragic story of Orpheus/Eurydice. I wrote this for the 2020 MoonFire minibang.

Summary
After the war ends, Ienzo suddenly finds himself with far too much downtime. He has no idea what to do with it; truth be told, he finds the idea of leisure time almost distasteful. No, that's not quite true: not having a set task makes him panic and begin questioning himself in a way that sends him spiralling.
-
Or: how Ienzo decides to relearn magic and accidentally falls for his tutor.

Summary
"Nothing's gonna happen to you, Xion. You know why?" Xion shakes her head slightly, a curious glint in her eyes.
"How can you be sure?"
"'Cause I'm here," Kairi says with a confidence she feels is merited; she's been surfing since perhaps a month after she'd arrived on the Islands as a young child. "And I had the best teacher!"
"I don't know if I agree that Sora is the best teacher," Xion mutters, but Kairi's words seem to do the trick; a pale pink flush blossoms over her cheeks and she shoots Kairi a tiny smile.

Summary
"Hurry up, you big palooka; you're gonna miss the start of the movie!" Isa turns to face Lea and quirks an elegant brow.
"Were you not the one who, and I'm quoting you verbatim, said 'I'll die if I don't clog my arteries with the butteriest popcorn in the next five minutes?' Be patient, or all of my efforts will have been for naught."

Summary
He looks steadfastly at the floor as though he wishes it'll open up and swallow him whole; Lea hates the look of quiet shame that twists his beautiful face and resolves to wash it away.

Summary
The ring box feels cold and heavy in her pocket, Moira thinks numbly and lights up a cigarette, sitting in the same place she had been for the last three hours—her desk, with eyes too red and wet and glassy for her expression be misconstrued as boredom.

Summary
It’s her smile that Moira hates the most, she thinks, snarling into her coffee as Angela—Dr. Ziegler—gives a tired, yet genuine smile to one of their underlings: it’s a beautiful thing, so sweet it makes her teeth ache, and that’s why Moira hates it; her colleague has never once looked at her that way and the geneticist suspects she never will.

Summary
She circled around him—they had done a full reversal. She was now predator; he was now prey. Of course, the Widow had been the predator the whole time. Wolves and girls both had sharp teeth, and none knew that better than the spy. She knew from the moment Loki set eyes on her that he wouldn’t see her as a threat, but merely an admittedly beautiful woman making play she, too, belonged in the big leagues with the men. Natasha lived for twisting men’s assumptions of her and weaponizing them. Their ignorance proved to be their undoing. The same was true for Loki—he wasn’t a human, but he was still a man. A man she could use and hurt, the same way he’d tried to hurt her.
