To Restore The Balance by cactuscandle

Summary
Merlin survives an eternity, patiently waiting for his king to rise again. What else is his purpose apart from to guide the Once and Future King? Well, apparently his job description had a few other minor details, such as retaining the balance of magic, and once he was kindly informed of this, Merlin find himself once again correcting the latest magical problem in the country. Only this time, it's a little more difficult, what with Voldemort using Old Magic to achieve his means of immortality/Wizarding Britain domination... the like. No matter, Merlin has a few tricks up his sleeve.
Cue Merlin losing his memories in quite an embarrassing fashion, if you ask me.
Now, how can he restore the balance of magic if he can't even remember his purpose?
Oh, featuring Harry and the lot of them because of course he's tied up in Merlin's shenanigans as well.- Words:

Summary
"We're in a war, and there's no place for sentiment here. You'd do best to learn that quickly."
A series that follows the development of Eren and Levi's relationship. Also known as "the Eren Can't Read Series". Meant to run side-by-side with the manga and be canon compliant up to a certain point, TBA, after which it will be a mostly-compliant canon divergence. Definitely not a depiction of a healthy relationship, but Shingekyo isn't exactly a healthy depiction of anything, so. There's that.
As of June 2025, all works are now being edited chronologically with altered and all-new content.
Latest update: Breathe Me, July 6 2025.

Summary
From a Hobbitkink prompt:
The battle was over, and Thorin Oakenshield awoke, naked and shivering, in the Halls of his Ancestors.
The novelty of being dead fades quickly, and watching over his companions soon fills him with grief and guilt. Oddly, a faint flicker of hope arises in the form of his youngest kinsman, a Dwarf of Durin's line with bright red hair.
(Follows the story of the War of the Ring).
(Bagginshield, Gimli/Legolas) In which recovery takes time, the dead members of the Company take to watching Gimli as though he’s a soap opera, the living struggle with being left behind, Legolas is confused, Khuzdul is abused, and Thorin is four feet and ten inches of guilt and anger.

Summary
Kim Seokjin loves acting. That's what they'll put in his obituary, probably, right after his family details, because that's the only thing that matters about him. That, and that he's gay, and that his temper snapped one time and ruined his entire career before it had a chance to be what he knows it could have become.
His last chance to prove himself comes in the form of a reality TV show, a Bachelor-style outing that will show he still has the softness to be a romantic lead. And it's embarrassing, and messy, and full of quirky guys and their weird habits and fame-seeking and secret agendas that he doesn't have the energy to deal with. But it's just a job, and Seokjin never turns down a chance when it's offered, and the biggest comfort of playing the starring role on Destined Hearts is that Seokjin knows his own heart will never be destined for anything but the screen.
