Lilith Sorrengail and the Glass Pebble by june_s_pumpkins
Fandoms: The Empyrean - Rebecca Yarros
20 Dec 2025

Summary
If you've ever wondered what stone cold general Lilith Sorrengail meant by "I did it for my children!" then you can learn alongside her that the heart wants what it wants, no matter how at odds the yearnings may seem, and ne'er shall we know why.
This fic follows Lilith's pregnancy with Brennan and explores her early life with Asher, and how the tiny dominoes were set up that would end one day in a wardstone chamber. But it's mostly positive! I promise!
Written for the RQ 2025 Winter Promptfest. More on the prompt and my interpretation in the notes.

A Dain at the Beach by june_s_pumpkins for ellebellewritesfic

Summary
A lot can change in 24 hours. Especially when it's a 24 hour sex odyssey on the beach!
Dain Aetos has put off his career long enough, but he's got one last summer of volunteering on the beach before he joins the corporate world. When he shows up to his summer rental, it turns out there are already eight people living there - eight impossibly hot lifeguards living a life he could never imagine. But maybe, just maybe, he could be a part of it. (They sure seem interested at least.)
For the excellent, esteemed, ElleBelleWritesFic.

Summary
When the revolution needs a heist, and not memories or siphoning, an unlikely duo steps up to prove themselves. There's only one way through the wards to steal the intel the revolution needs, and only two people dumb enough to try it.
Since we were robbed of the Research Heist (tm) in Onyx Storm, here's an entirely silly Slain take on it.

Summary
The adventures of Pax and Evey! Two pals and how they met and maybe they'll like go on adventures and stuff? But also be real romantic. Mainly the story diverges a few different ways so setting up this collection to keep it together for now.

Summary
Welcome to my Dain Aetos and Sloane Mairi universe! Here you will find palpable yearning, a soft & sexy secret relationship, sustained chaos, and utter devotion (in short: a good time is had by all ❤️🔥)
This series includes my Dain and Sloane establishing story, “follow me like the moon" and the associated fics that build on it. In this little timeline, I've placed the genesis of Dain and Sloane’s relationship in Chapter 28 of Onyx Storm—between the two isles trips.
Stories take place throughout the remainder of Onyx Storm and can be read as standalones, though each fic builds on those that came before, so might be best enjoyed in order.
The series "officially" concludes with "i came from the crowd seeking you," which also includes a little epilogue to the entire miniseries. Bonus post-canon oneshots may be added at random (we see you, domestic Slain!)
I so hope you enjoy 🫶

The Semiotics, Rhetoric, and Language of Falling in Love by itsMooTime
Fandoms: The Empyrean - Rebecca Yarros

Summary
Sloane Mairi is starting her freshman year at Basgiath University. Her current concerns include, but are not limited to: her classwork, her sorority experience, and her RA. Especially her RA. He’s in her classes, lives four doors down from her, and she’s convinced that he has something to do with ruining her brother’s reputation.
Who else would be her RA but Dain Aetos?Bookmarked by june_s_pumpkins

Summary
“When, Mairi?”, I ask and I realize I’m shouting again. “Please, for the love of all the gods, tell me! When have you ever listened to anything anyone has ever told you to do?"
“Well, I’ve listened to people when I was sleeping with them”, she states, her lips curling around a vicious little grin, clearly trying to infuriate me even more.
And for some inexplicable reason what spills out of my mouth is: “Fine. If I fuck you, will you do what you’re told?”
Or: Dain is done with Sloane Mairi's bullshit, but instead of telling her that he offers to fuck her.

Summary
“Take a trip to the sparring gym tomorrow, Mairi,” he suggests mildly. “You need to hit something.”
“I need to hit you.”
Dain’s gaze snaps back to mine. His eyes roam my face, my body, and I know he clocks how hard I’m breathing. I’m being assessed, but I can’t tell if it’s my wingleader doing it or just… him.
“Okay,” he says, nodding slowly. “We deal with this now.”
