Pulvis et Umbra Sumus by AuroraWest for Remedial
Fandoms: Thor (Movies), Marvel Cinematic Universe
12 Jul 2020
Tags
Summary
Things had been occasionally rocky between Loki and Thor over the past month aboard The Statesman, but they’d had more good days than bad. Loki would have preferred to keep it that way, but Thor's recent foul mood was a...challenge. As pathetic as it was, though, he seemed to have arrived back at a stage of life where making Thor happy was something to strive for. Maybe there had never been anything inherently wrong with it to begin with.

Summary
She's flitted through countless timelines, met too many versions of Loki to count--but none of them are her Loki. Even when they look like him, sound like him, move like him, she knows they're not really him. She can see it in their eyes. She'll never forget the way that Loki had looked at her just before they kissed, the way his eyes had glistened with tears as he begged her to believe that he just wanted her to be okay.
It's laughable just how not okay she is now, but that's all right. She has all the time in the world to work with, and she's always had a bit of a stubborn streak. So she pushes on and clutches her newfound regrets to her chest, hunching forward from the weight of them as she tries to figure out how a person is meant to live with the ghosts of the words they never said and the things they wish they could change.
***
On Sylvie, and regret, and how to live in the aftermath of breaking your own heart.

eleutheromania by JewFlexive
Fandoms: Star Wars Prequel Trilogy, Star Wars - All Media Types
01 Nov 2020

Summary
There's a rumor going around the Quarters that there's a general in the Republic Army who was seen wearing the Amarattu, a general who calls himself Sky-Walker and Rain-Bringer, a warrior unfettered and fearless. They say that he’s a Jedi Knight, that he wields a blue lightsaber and calls the slave-clones by the names they chose for themselves. It’s probably bantha shit, but Nima has to admit that even if it is a lie, it's by far the prettiest one she’s heard in years.
With Anakin off-planet on a mission and her anti-slavery bill being blocked at every turn, Padmé is feeling useless, exhausted, and very, very alone. Enter Nima, a twelve-year-old Amivakka slave of one of Orn Free Taa's aides. After being freed, Nima forces Anakin to remember that which he'd rather forget-- and in doing so, saves Padmé, Anakin, and the galaxy.

Summary
It's several months after the confrontation on Bespin when Luke and Leia receive intelligence that Fett may have appeared on the backwater planet of Venaira—and may have brought Han with him. Naturally, they have to investigate.
But Venaira used to have a different branch of Force wielders to Jedi, known as the ladies of the forest, until something happened twenty years ago that left the place in darkness. Whatever happened, it seems contained to that forest; so long as they stay out of it, they should be fine.
Of course, when Darth Vader shows up hunting for Luke, they aren't left with many options...

Summary
He closes his eyes and dozes off for a while. He thinks he dreams, too. He sees the ocean, an endless stretch of blue both above and below. He hears the call of seagulls and feels his toes sink into the sand. Then he feels a hand—no, hands—on him, patting his back and squeezing his shoulder and ruffling his hair and pulling him into a hug.
When Jungkook wakes up, he’s smiling.
[or: jungkook meets several new people in strange and unexplained ways, each one just as important as the last]

A Lady's Guide to Shortbread, Scandal, and the Scottish Countryside by bookishandbossy

30 Jun 2018
Tags
Summary
Lady Jemma Simmons, celebrated debutante and fiance of a man she can't bring herself to marry, requires ruination. Mr. Leopold Fitz, self-made Scottish millionaire and general social disgrace, is the perfect man for the job.
It's a flawless plan: they'll be caught together, scandal will ensue, and they'll promptly go their separate ways. What she's forgotten to account for, though, is her fiance's propensity to challenging people to duels, a tenacious wire-haired terrier, his grandmother's shortbread recipe, and the possibility that they may just end up falling in love.

Somewhat dark. Body horror. Strange but good and interesting look at how being half-elven might manifest.

So wholesome! So much fluff! I liked seeing Fred in a more serious light than he was in the movie. I just the friendship between these characters so much and this really nailed that!

Love the premise, was done well! I’m a sucker for robots being self-aware. Loved the Big Hero 6 influences but nothing was pulled directly from the movie. It felt original.

Maglor learns to use Songs of Power throughout his lifetime, and discovers the things they can do.
Another entry for Fëanorian week! I actually somewhat started basing this on Sing by My Chemical Romance (terribly cliché, I know) but I felt like it fit? Especially towards the end.

Wow. This was terrifying in a very uneasy way. Psychological horror. Reminds me a bit of Stranger Things! 3rd chapter is Author’s Notes. Sad/hopeful(?) ending. This was so good I forgot it was fanfiction.

Bookmarker's Notes
This is better read in one sitting; can be easy to get confused since it is nonchronological and John often doesnt remember anything about what’s going on either. Really good but will require a few rereads to completely put everything together. Maybe watching Memento will help make more sense. Really cool idea!

Summary
“Is it alive?” Jungkook asks, turning the sand dollar over in his hand. It’s damp and gritty from where Seokjin had picked it from the sand. Jungkook has never seen a sand dollar in person before—he doesn’t ever remember seeing one at this beach, but maybe Seokjin has a talent for finding them.
Seokjin shakes his head. “You can tell because the living ones have spines—they fall off when they die.” He goes on to explain more about the creature, about its color and size and habitat, but only the last part sticks with Jungkook: “They’re supposed to be good luck.”
The one where Jungkook figures out the time loop, and everything begins to fall apart.

Summary
“You trust a murderer?”
“I can’t judge.” Jimin picks up a clump of rice and points it at Taehyung accusatory. “Namjoon’s… Namjoon, and he breaks the law all the time. Yoongi gets in fights. Don’t look at me like that. Murder might be on another level, but none of us are angels.”
Taehyung takes a moment to process. He picks at the rice and reluctantly takes a bite. “That doesn’t mean you’re no better than me. What I did to Seokjin—” His voice cracks. “—you can’t just ignore that and pretend that it will be okay.”
Or: alternate ending to Save Me where Seokjin's time loop doesn't reset if he dies, and Taehyung is left to compensate.Series
