    Summary

    She’d laugh every time they hit him. That’s what he remembers, later.

    He also remembers her pouring antiseptic on his knuckles, her pressing plasters over his cuts. The birthday she’d come to his room, long after the others had already fallen asleep, with small presents she’d hidden for him. The cookbook she smuggled into their mansion when their mother fell sick, so he could bake for her. The backdoor key she copied for him in his teenage years, when he finally found friends, when he had something to sneak out for.

    She’d laugh every time they hit him, but she’d stay afterwards, too. Lead him to her bedroom, hand in hand, hide him there for a brief respite. “You’re always winding them up,” she would say, sitting him down on her bed. His cheeks would be swollen with bruises and she would watch him, still as the surface of a lake.

    Summary

    Perona used to tell him ghost stories about its previous occupants. Stillbirths and young boys who didn’t come back from the war — spectres for a young Zoro to face sword in hand. She told Zoro not to leave his bedroom on a full moon, to keep his curtains closed once the sun hazed down. She said there were noises at night, that if you lay sweet and still in bed, you heard the thumpings. You heard the wailings.

    The Vinsmokes had always lived next door.

    ***

    Modern AU. Zoro met the love of his life when he was four. Three years later, he meets Sanji.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    The author has such an understanding of these characters that it's throat-clutching to see. I have no words for it, because all the best ones were already used to write the masterpiece itself. There's also great insight in the comments that shouldn't be ignored. All fanfics are a love letter to canon -- but sometimes I forget that and this one made me remember.

    Summary

    Trapped in a system where omegas are little more than trophies to be bought and sold, Will Graham has done the unthinkable by escaping a forced bonding. Already in high demand as a profiler, Will's determined to find freedom on his own terms.

    For Hannibal Lecter the outlook is far more straightforward: a slow, systematic seduction of the most uniquely captivating omega he's ever encountered.

    As the shadow of a new and terrifying serial killer falls over Baltimore, the stage is set to redefine all accepted meanings of passion, temptation, horror and beauty – and to discover the ecstasy of a genuine love crime.

    Summary

    Kageyama Tobio is the nineteen-year-old who makes waves at the 2016 Rio Olympics, playing for Japan.
    Hinata gets a part-time job as a delivery boy in Rio De Janeiro. It’s convenient and frighteningly easy, at least after he learns to read the street signs.

    He kind of wants to hit something. The ball, into the opposite court, first and foremost—if not, then the ball directly into Miya Atsumu’s smug face would be a decent consolation prize.
