    Summary

    When Sara looks up, the Shogun, with her mouth full, is staring at her curiously. The god returns the remaining half of the Sakura Mochi to her plate, chewing carefully and swallowing before she places her chopsticks onto the table. “You have finished?”

    Sara nods. "Yes. For breakfast, I typically eat five mouthfuls." Obviously, the Shogun hasn’t finished eating, but Sara would sit with her until she did. Sara sips at her tea, enjoying the savory taste combined with its subtle sweetness. Relaxing at breakfast is a new experience, though it’s one that she could see herself indulging in occasionally.

    -

    The sequel to "as shadows fade into the light," exploring the developing relationship between Sara and the Raiden Shogun.

    Summary

    Beidou gets called to the Jade Chamber. There’s no name attached to the summon, but there also doesn’t need to be— as famous and revered as the floating palace is, every citizen and their ancestors know that the Jade Chamber belongs to the Tianquan, and the Tianquan alone.

    Or, just what on earth would the highly revered Ningguang want with the captain of the Crux Fleet?

    Summary

    The civil war is over. But what is a soldier without a war to fight?

    Inazuma is changing, and Sara must change with it. No longer required on the frontlines, she is asked to remain at the Raiden Shogun's side as her retainer, a duty she accepts. However, she is forced to face the truth that she'd denied for so long; that she has - against all sound judgement - fallen in love with her.

    Summary

    Sara turns to face the Narukami once again, looks, yes, but sees, perhaps for the first time, the way her eyes crinkle, the shadows that nestle deep beneath her high cheekbones. She sees them move as the other speaks, as oil on water.

    “And what do you think of that? Of me?”

    “I—” she chokes, words failing her when she needs them the most — standing upon a realization as she is, on the prow of a ship far out at sea, having come across the detritus of another, all but lost to time.

    It is easy to recognize their likeness, weathered away by five hundred years of storm and salt, until only the differences remain. Skeletal, fundamental as they are, “You have no God to turn to.”

    “That I don’t.” An easy smile that pulls the shadows deeper still, an otherworldly creature that both haunts and awes.

    Sara cannot peel her eyes away.

    OR;

    in the land of eternity, two strangers talk of all things transient.

    Summary

    You didn’t think the Duke would actually take you on as his courier, but here you were carrying packages through all kinds of weather. The process of delivering the packages themselves wasn’t daunting, it was to whom you were delivering them to: The Four Lords.

    Being a courier was simple though and the Lords wouldn’t hurt you. Or, at least that’s what the Duke told you.

    Courier!Reader slowly befriends the Lords and Dimitrescu daughters and falls for Lady Beneviento. Or is it the other way around?

    Summary

    The mortal’s feet travel to her, only the green wall separating them. Hesitation stalls the sound of walking, and she rises. They hiss, excited, but fall under silence at her stare upon the man.

    A soft noise slips from her throat when the man looks back to her.

    But he doesn’t see.

    '“You want it,” Evelynn tells her, gaze falling to the bubblegum pink of her mouth. “I know you’ve thought about it before.”

    “I’ve been curious,” Ahri agrees, and god, but Evelynn looks like she might just eat her up at the admission. “Why are you encouraging me?”

    Evelynn’s eyes narrow.

    “I’ve been curious, too.”'

    Summary

    “Good fight,” the brother says, not looking at her. His hand is right behind her, and if he were someone kinder, he’d reach out and place it on her shoulder. If she were someone kinder, she’d let him. 

    “Good fight,” she murmurs instead, and leaves it at that.

    The brother doesn’t say he loves her out loud. But she hears it all the same.

    It is the last time.

     

    Or, a study in siblings. Featuring growing closer, growing apart, things that were said, and things that were not.

    Summary

    “Did you know”, he answered, “that Azula’s favorite flowers are fire lilies? Every birthday, she asked for the ballroom to be decorated with them. During our tutoring lessons, she’d doodle them on the inside of her hands so she could hide them quick—dozens and dozens of small flowers, connected to each other by little stems.” Zuko leaned against the wall, crossing his arms. “Of course, she always made a mess. Ink all over her clothes, ink all over her notes. But she got away with it, every time.”

    And Suki’s eyes weren’t sad. They were so, so tired. “Why do you hold on to all that, Zuko?”

    Zuko shrugged. “Where can I put it down?”

     

    Or, it takes Zuko one year to visit his sister again. Featuring birthday weeks, struggling with your own goodness, and a future.

    Summary

    There isn’t any shame in relying in others, Zuko had told her, once. Face soft with sleep, curled up on her bedside in the facility, as she painted her nails in an attempt to stop chewing them. I learned it the hard way. Sometimes you need to hit rock bottom to climb your way back up.

    And sometimes when you hit rock bottom you break your neck, she’d answered. Why let yourself get that low?

    It’s difficult to know which way is up and which way is down sometimes, he’d said. Finger tapping his scar. It isn’t the hitting the ground that gets you. Sometimes it’s the fall.

     

    Or, Azula takes the long way home. Featuring the passage of time, the life-changing aspects of a field trip across the Earth Kingdom, and making a place for yourself.

    Summary

    '“Say it.”

    Evelynn’s next breath shudders past her lips. “I’m not going to beg for it.”

    Familiar sweetness returns to Ahri’s eyes, and in the palm that she cups Evelynn’s cheek with, over-warm and soft against her flushed skin. Her smile is soothing, gentle, sympathetic— until it isn’t. Fingers tighten into claws against Evelynn’s jaw with enough force to draw a delightful little gasp.

    “I’ll make that call.”'

    Summary

    Widowmaker was faceless to Sombra for the longest time, nameless like every other Talon soldier she had ever had the displeasure of meeting. The blue of her skin and her pretty face made her only marginally more interesting, not enough to make her anything but a project Sombra could busy herself with when she got bored of her assignments. Another code to decrypt, a mystery to solve.

    But it's easy to stumble when you're tiptoeing around a gaping abyss of a woman. It's easy to let your eyes linger where they don't belong. It's easy to find yourself falling, and when the time comes, the rush may well make you forget that you are going to hit the ground.

    “Have you killed before?” Widow asks her, curled up against Sombra’s back.
