Summary
It’s the small comforts, Kaidan thinks, that matter most.
The sound of ocean surf. The gentle heat of the sun. A warm breeze on his bare back as he lands prone in the sand. The thunk of a volleyball as it lands a good few feet away from his outstretched fists.
Maybe not that last one.
--
Kaidan Alenko and Anna Shepard enjoy a well-deserved vacation, full of the small comforts that make life worth living. Featuring: a Canadian who's terrible at beach volleyball.

Summary
Luke has a lot on his plate as it is, between learning how to train his first student and grappling with the weight of the legacy he’s inherited. When the Mandalorian starts paying frequent visits to his school and asks for help mastering his strange new weapon, he can add another problem to his list: budding feelings for the father of his student.
(Or: how Din and Luke's first meeting after season 2 should have gone.)

Summary
She's not really gone. Not when she sometimes sneaks into his tent to sleep, the exhaustion bruising the skin under her eyes, her thready pulse sluggish with all it's been put through.
All he can do is hope for her.

Summary
Born of royal parentage, gifted with great intelligence, and raised to rule a vast and prospering empire, Jessamine Kaldwin would never have been considered an ordinary person. But there is something especially odd about the heir to the throne, something uncanny and mysterious, there in the lurking darkness behind her eyes and in the eerie truths that spill forth from her lips. Jessamine Kaldwin is many things – daughter, friend, lover, mother, empress – but normal she is not, and the secrets that lie within her heart shape the world and the lives of those around her in ways beyond all human comprehension.
This is the birth, life, and death of Jessamine Kaldwin, who was stranger than anyone ever knew.
[No Dishonored 2 Spoilers.]

Summary
Being a chronicle of Whisper (brand-new Railroad agent, former Minutemen General, woman out of time) and Deacon (not so new Railroad agent, professional liar, all-around charming bastard) and their adventures in lying, spying, and looking damn good doing it. Sometimes, a little dishonesty is the only way to be honest about what you want.
AKA that series where Deacon and f!SS go undercover and fuck a lot and fail at feeling feelings.

Summary
'cause everything else is obsolete
Spring to fall: six months in the life of the Railroad's best and brightest agents, lying and spying their way across the Commonwealth, stopping the bad guys, saving the day, and having a lot of excellent sex while they're at it. For this pair of loners, partnership has never looked so good. What could possibly go wrong?
(Definitely not something as simple as feelings.)

Bookmarker's Notes
My favourite Bond fic ever - and I believe heartily that is canon. After watching Spectre I was compelled to find it again and lo and behold it's no on Ao3 where I can bookmark and remember for all time.

Summary
For thine is the kingdom,
The power, and the glory,
For ever and ever...Slice of life drabbles from various eras of the Citadel's existence and the reign of The Immortan Joe. Piecemeal and self indulgent, picking and choosing what I consider canon outside of the film. Rape and breeding references due to source material, nothing explicit but keep an eye on the tags!!

Summary
It’s the summer after the liberation of the Citadel and, now that food and water are available to all, people are starting to regain a healthy interest in sex. Furiosa believes she shut down that part of herself for good years ago, but as Max’s visits grow longer and more frequent, she finds herself wondering if it might be worth the effort it would take for both of them to work through their past traumas and find a way to make things work.
