    Summary

    Ever since they’ve eloped, Jinx can’t get enough of her husband, and very clearly so, when a pregnancy test ends up positive after three years of marriage. She stared at the test for what seemed like hours—hoping the second line would disintegrate the next time she blinked.

    Ekko didn’t know; she hadn’t told him right away. Instead, she quietly slipped more onto her plate during dinner that day. Dazed, and confused, she ate for her potential baby, too. Doubts swarmed her mind, voices loud and terrifying. It wasn’t like she didn’t know how pregnancy tests worked—she’d sat through endless tests with Damita.

    -

    Jinx tries to speak, she really does, but nothing comes—she can only push her hand onto her belly with trembling fingers. Watch how affectionate his gaze turns in just a second, and he softly exhales. “Our baby?” Ekko’s forehead falls onto hers, squeezing his eyes shut.

    -

    A story of pregnancy, marriage, and birth. And more so, how those two dealt with their fears, pain and doubts about having a baby.

    Summary

    So maybe it was stupid that she was sniffling and crying as she scooped up the broken green pieces, maybe she should chuck her phone out her window instead of playing Celine Dion’s All by Myself, maybe she shouldn't have took the half-empty bottle of champagne from her fridge and clutched it to her chest. And maybe, she really should have set her phone on fire instead of opening her browser app and typing.

    Fuck it, she thought to herself and clicked on the first link under the search bar.

    So you’re looking for a date. Maybe you just got out of a relationship with a guy who thinks The Godfather is the paragon of modern cinema. Maybe that guy with good hair and a cute butt from HR turned you down. Bottom line is: you’re out of practice and you’re losing hope that you’ll ever find love again. But I’m here now babe (do not fear!) and here are 7 ways to get any guy you want!

    Summary

    Ekko is a rare case of an Alpha with a heart as pure as a fucking Disney princess and no intentions to deceive Jinx into falling into bed with him and breed her for five business days without a shred of mercy.

    Fortunately for Jinx, she knows how to get what and who she wants. It doesn’t matter that Ekko is polite to the point of being pathological, or that he never spends a rut in their shared apartment, opting for booking a hotel room to give her peace—no, Jinx is a persuasion goddess and she always wins in the end.

    That is how she ended up in this predicament.

    (or: Jinx decides to help Ekko—her roommate-not-boyfriend—with his rut, and they're totally Not Awkward and Very Normal about it afterwards.)

    Summary

    Jinx, gasping from the coughing fit and halfway dying inside, reached out and gripped her son's shoulder with one hand, turning him bodily toward the street.

    “Okay! Time to go! Thank you so much, very delicious, very horrifying, goodbye!”

    Theo looked up at her in confusion. “Did I say something wrong?”

    Jinx, still red-faced and trying to maintain some parental dignity, gave him a tight-lipped smile as she dragged her hand down her face.

    “You… just told a story that probably sounded way different than it actually was,” she said diplomatically. “That’s all.”

    -------
    One-shots and dabbles from my 'Ghosts of the Living' series where Vi finds out Jinx is not only alive, but has been living with Ekko in Bilgewater and they've started a family—one he apparently neglected to bring up during their correspondence all these years. Ops, family drama.

    You might be able to read these without reading part 1 (if you really want to), but you will likely be somewhat confused and the original story is only like 8k words anyway—it's not that long. Please go consume that and then come back to this snack pack, lolol.

    Summary

    Newly minted as Queen of Bilgewater, Sarah Fortune has taken her ship, the Syren, out to investigate a Piltovan airship that crashed in the waters of the bay before any of the other scavengers can get to it. While on board, she finds a strange young woman with a penchant for improvised explosives and an ambush coming for her from the place she calls home.

    She may have to take a gamble on a madwoman to get out of this alive, but fortune does favor the bold, does it not?
