    Despite what Havelock Vetinari's aunt says, having two soulmarks instead of one is somewhat unfortunate.

    Summary

    Omegaverse writers sure do love tagging intersex on their works even though clearly none of them actually understand what being intersex is. For a start, it isn't having both a penis and vagina. So I have decided to figure out how intersex variations actually could or would work in the omegaverse, in the hopes that maybe if I do, people will write about intersex A/B/O characters.

    Or: I liked "A/B/O: Adventures in Fake Science" so much that I figured out even more A/B/O fake science!

    Summary

    This is an attempt to bash weird porny a/b/o dynamics fiction over the head with science. Not that anyone asked for it.

    So how the hell does a/b/o sex determination work? And why did a trinary sex determination system evolve in higher vertebrates alongside a binary sex determination system? Why aren't omega males dying in droves from massive uterine infections? Alpha females, what's up with that? Come on in and I shall tell you the very best in fake science and evolutionary history.

    Part theorizing, part helpful guide. This one goes out to all you people who just want fictional worlds to make sense. I'm right there with you.

    “You move fast, don’t you?”
    “Mm, but is it working?”
    Ori cast their eyes down, flicking them over Fíli’s jacket and shaggy blonde hair… and most importantly back to the photo of the book.
    “It… might be,” they murmured after a minute. “You have my attention for half an hour, idiot number one. Don’t waste it.”

    Or: the Filiori little gay sidequest AU.

    Summary

    Was this what lust could do to a man? This was no natural lust, he conceded, for he had never felt such a passionate longing in his life. This was the lust that must strike the heart of a man who has come to know Satan's bed. Should this be weakness, he must own to it. He must exalt in it. Surely this was the fire that gleamed red in the heart of the Carpathians.

    Summary

    A series in which Frodo Baggins is the biological son of Bilbo Baggins and Thorin Oakenshield.
    Not mpreg, dwarven gender is just complicated. Contains two branches: "No Heir of Durin", which is canon compliant as much as such a 'verse can be (the only adjustments are timeline and genetics, expect feels), and "An Heir of Durin", a forthcoming fic which explores an Everyone Lives AU version of this premise. In between we have "Heirs and Spares", which takes place in either or both 'verses. Simple enough?

    Summary

    Gimli, Lord of Aglarond, hasn't seen his friend Legolas of Ithilien for eight years—but the image of his unclothed body and a memory of withdrawn intimacy has been imprinted on his mind ever since. Determined to accept his friend’s rejection, it has taken every ounce of his iron control to keep his distance.

    Now Legolas has asked him for his company on a journey to the Grey Havens, and in honor of their old friendship, Gimli determines to aid him without letting his feelings get in the way. But his body and heart refuse to listen to his urgings, and over the course of a journey, those feelings only grow stronger.

    And perhaps, in the end, the strength of his care will be enough to save them both.

    Summary

    "In a room in a mountain there labored a dwarf. Not over a bar of white hot iron taken from a glowing forge, hammer ringing on the hardened anvil, nor yet over a pristine workbench with nothing else placed on it but rare metals and freshly-mined gemstones. This was Statecraft, and that meant paperwork."

    What with King Thorin II and his heirs surviving and Erebor thriving, Lord Balin is far too busy negotiating contracts, moderating interspecies disputes, and dispensing well-considered advice to a variety of hotheaded Durins and stubborn dwarrows to mount a Balrog-fated expedition to Moria.

    Unfortunately, he's also too overworked to do much of anything else, until librarian/scribe Eilifr arrives one day to deliver some research—and ends up taking charge of Balin's schedule, organizing his paperwork, and even running interference with an unexpected and unwelcome invasion of opportunistic suitors.

    Some of whom seem to be taking a dangerous sort of interest in his Mahal-sent jewel of an assistant . . .

    Summary

    Recently abandoned in the Caribbean by a young man who strung him along in feigned friendship only to rob him upon their arrival, sixteen-year-old aristocrat Nathaniel Adair has no choice but to stow away in order to make his way home to England in shame. Unfortunately—or fortunately—for him, the ship he sneaks aboard belongs to a crew of pirates who operate on cash and barter, and who have their own idea of how a stowaway can repay them for the cost of his passage to the next port.
