    Summary

    Alfred F. Jones is the best math student in the school.
    Ivan Braginsky is the best writer.

    Unfortunately, Alfred can't write to save his life, Ivan can't do algebra to save his, and they both hate each other.

    But when their grades start slipping, and their learning specialist forces them to tutor each other, the obvious solution is simple: trade skills, survive the semester, and go back to ignoring each other.

    It would probably work better if they didn't keep seeing things about each other that they were never supposed to.

    Or: two academic rivals discover that hating each other is much easier from a distance.

    Summary

    “I don’t know Al.. what if he can tell?”

    Alfred rolled his eyes. “Based on one portrait?”

    “You’re tanner.”

    “I’ll tell him I spent some time in the south.”

    “Your eyes are blue, mine are violet.”

    “So I’ll tell him the artist took some creative liberties- look Mattie. I’ve got this handled.”

    Summary

    Almost ten years ago, the Curtis family's world falls apart when four year old Ponyboy is taken from the park nearby. Darry and Soda are left reeling when their parents are killed in an accident two weeks before the ninth anniversary of their brother's disappearance. In order for Darry to keep custody of Soda, he has to agree to be a temporary foster care parent. With an overcrowded system, he knows this is the State's way of creating more houses, and Darry knows he'll do whatever he can to keep his brother.

    However, when Peter James, a thirteen year old who demands to be called "Pony", gets put in his care, Darry can't help but think he's getting more than he bargained for. It's impossible for him not to notice the similarities, and Darry and Soda both find themselves putting all the missing pieces together so that they might reunite with their baby brother, and bring him home for good.

     

    aka an AU where Ponyboy finds his way back to his brothers in an unconventional way, proving that he's their baby brother in every universe, and they'll always find a way to take care of him.

    The title of course comes from Phil Collins

    Summary

    Ah yes, the Faerie Knight. A tragic hero. Tricked by Shadow Milk Cookie into thinking this was some noble quest—when in fact…” Black Sapphire Cookie smirks, adjusting the mic. “He was just another trophy in a king’s twisted game. How quaint.”

    Sliverbell, quiet until now, speaks—his voice like a blade. “I wasn’t tricked. I was kidnapped.”

    Sapphire feigns surprise. “Ah, kidnapped. My mistake.” His eyes gleam as he turns to his invisible audience. “Now, where was I? Ah yes, the tragic faerie knight, caught in manipulation and whispers of something darker.”

    “I’m not part of your show,” Sliverbell says, sharp, uncertain.

    Or

    Black Sapphire Cookie—ever the star of his own show—shouldn’t care. He’s used to the spotlight, used to the whispers and the laughter, the cruel mockery of his invisible audience. But when Candy Apple Cookie—his volatile, childish sister—spikes his drink with a love potion, everything changes.

    But as Sapphire tries to hold onto his usual facade, he’s forced to confront the thing he’s been running from—the very real consequences of being loved, of caring for somecookie other than himself.

    Summary

    Black Sapphire Cookie isn't an inherently 'good' cookie. He's deceitful, egotistical, arrogant and prideful to a degree that most find incredibly unsavoury. He found solace in those like him; His master, Shadow Milk Cookie and his comrade Candy Apple Cookie were so similar. He was content to carrying out his master's will so long as it kept Black Sapphire from restless ‘contentment’.

    Until it fell apart. His world fell around him and suddenly he's landed on the wooden floor of a homey little cottage-A faerie's cottage-nearly half a decade later...
