Summary
It's the first winter after Pitch's defeat. Jack is happy, he's not alone anymore, and his memories are gradually returning. But when a treasure hunt gone wrong puts Jack and Jamie in danger, flinging them through time and space, they find themselves on an island neither of them have heard of before. Jack's first priority is to get Jamie home safe, but Berk's inhabitants - human and otherwise - are certainly not making it easy.
Knowing they will leave Berk and the Vikings behind as soon as they know how to, Jack is not going to risk the pain of growing close to any of these people (or dragons, for that matter). But Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, wearing his heart on his sleeve, doesn't seem to want to take the hint.

Summary
A series of Mel/Zag stuffs. A collection of one shots i think I doubt I'll do any kind of over arching story. Could be at the beginning of their feelings or a long devolved relationship. Follows either the surface or the underworld route where they're free to show and have to hide their feelings respectively.

Summary
There was one time Father had glared at him and said, how dare you shrug off death as though it means nothing to you. If, while running through the looming shadows of Erebus, he remembered those words, he would shrug and think lightly to himself that sometimes Father did have a point. Then he would tell himself it’s fine, it’s fine—admitting Father was right was fine, he could always set it right anyway. He could live more carefully. He could.
But he didn’t remember Father’s words as all the winds swept past the hidden moon. And that was why he simply bowed his head, pressed his cheek against the soft bundle that held his little sister, whispering a quiet sweet dreams. He closed his eyes. He thought it, again and again. I won’t die. I won’t. I can’t. Can’t. Can’t. Can’t.

Summary
Doom incarnate has always been certain about himself - certain about how his eternity would unravel, and where the strings of fate might guide him.
However, Melinoe's growing affect on him, was not one of those certainties.

Summary
The bell above the door clangs, and Persephone doesn’t bother to look up from the narcissus she squeezes into the last wedding bouquet. It’s her mother, she figures, back from the next door bakery with lunch. It isn’t until she hears a voice, low and male, edged with frustration and seriousness at first, but under the rough skin of it, softness, as he describes the bind he’s in that she turns around. He looms large in the doorway and he needs her.
Her help, rather. She swallows, remembering what her mom has always said. Net 30, and even that’s pushing it. Only with prior accounts, only with people from this side of town who we know, Persephone. It’s what Demeter’s always warned her about: getting in too deep, going off the books… the death of so many other small businesses in this economy. So it surprises her when she offers to create the arrangements for this dark stranger. And shocks her when she blurts out that she will deliver them herself, tomorrow, across the tracks.Bookmarked by magpie_skies
