    Summary

    “Simon?”

    Simon slides a book into place before turning around. The man in front of him is lean, worn thin, with bags like dusky thumbprints beneath his eyes. He’s swallowed by the massive black hoodie he’s wearing, his hands wedged deep into his pockets and his shoulders hunched.

    For reasons he cannot begin to understand, Simon wants to crush this man into a tiny ball and then shove him into the mouth that gapes, screaming, around his own starved heart.

    He doesn’t do that, obviously. He’s on the clock.

    Or: Ghost loses his memories and falls in love with his husband, again.

    Summary

    It’s just a panic attack, Buck thinks, desperately ignoring the wet rattle in his lungs. You’re not dying. You can breathe.

    For a few minutes, he almost believes himself.

    The day after the tsunami, Buck wakes up drowning.

    Summary

    The darkness in the kennel is thick, suffocating. It reeks of rat piss and molding hay. Every instinct screams danger, though Halsin cannot yet make out what hunts him. His darkvision does not pierce the deepest corners, but he knows—oh, he knows—

    There’s something hungry here.

    After saving the world, Tav turns their attention to dismantling Cazador Szarr. But what they discover in the bowels of the Szarr palace is far more than a single corrupt noble.

    Summary

    “I was going to ask you to join me," you huff, "but after that little stunt I might rather drown you instead.”

    “A risk I’m willing to take, fortunately for you," Astarion purrs. "It would be the nicest drowning I’ve had by far."

    It might be funny if he were joking.

    You don’t think he’s joking.

    Astarion carries the weight of two hundred terrible years. You do your best to ease the strain.

    Summary

    It’s the seventy-fifth tally when they bring the alpha downstairs.

    From the second Soap can hear him, he’s shouting up a storm. There are four men on him, and twice as many guns besides: he fights like hell the whole way down the hall. As he’s shoved onto his knees, he sinks his fangs into the thigh of his nearest captor. He gets himself pistol-whipped for his effort, and still looks like he wants to try it again.

    Soap likes the big bastard intensely and immediately.

    Soap and Ghost are imprisoned by the Al-Qatala, and things only get worse from there.

    Summary

    When Miguel dialed his watch to teleport back to Spider Society Headquarters, the watch flickered—and then it died an underwhelming and tragic death on his wrist, the watchface sputtering into an unresponsive darkness that refused to blink no matter how he fiddled with the internal components. Now Miguel is stuck on an alien planet with four children, no medication, zero contact with the outside world, and rapidly thinning patience.

    “Mierda,” Miguel decides.

    “Yeah,” Miles groans, sprawling out on the floor. “That about sums it up.”

    When he’s stranded in an alien universe, Miguel has to keep his spiderkids safe and find a way back home—all while enduring the damning concequences of withdrawal from the drug genetically coded into him.

    Summary

    As the officers clear the area around the webs, Miles slips beneath the yellow tape. Instantly, a low growl rumbles to life within the thicket of the nest. Red eyes flash between silk strands. Claws scrape over concrete in an unfortunate reminder of the last time Miles had been on Miguel’s bad side.

    Christ, he is so uniquely not qualified to deal with this.

    Miles finds Miguel, feral and injured, in Co-op City. He calls the one person capable of dealing with Miguel in this state: Peter B. Parker.

    Summary

    Xie Lian has spent long enough around sirens to have some grasp of their communication, and some of it is even a little similar to mer noises. This sound, for example, is like the one podmates use to call for each other—curious, beckoning. He suspects it means much the same thing for sirens. Has this siren lost someone, maybe?

    Hopefully it will find its lost someone soon, so Xie Lian can go back to sleep.

    Then, because nothing good can ever happen to Xie Lian, the siren peeks beneath the overhang. It hangs its head over the jut of stone, its hair billowing like a crown of ink and the yellow sclera of its eye bright against the black. That singular eye catches on his, its pupil dilating, and Xie Lian stiffens.

    Summary

    The sigil-erasing gauntlet sits heavy in Hunter’s hands, deaf to his commands. “Ugh! Do you come with an instruction manual or something?”

    “It does, actually,” the floor says helpfully. “Would you like to see it?”

    Hunter shrieks because floors should not speak. The floor—or, more precisely, the abomination goo puddled on it—then begins to coalesce into a familiar shape. Mere seconds later, Darius Fucking Deamonne stands in front of Hunter with one hip cocked to the side and an imperious eyebrow arched. All of that would be very intimidating, if it weren’t for the fact that he’s also wearing a lavender bathrobe and fuzzy cat-shaped slippers.

    “A little late for visitors, isn’t it, princeling mine?”

    [Or: Hunter commits burglary, gets a tattoo, and extorts a world leader.]

    Summary

    “There’s four of them—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn," Hunter explains. "My therapist wanted me to write about some times when I felt like I reacted each of those ways.”

    “And you’re having trouble thinking of some?” Luz asks, propping her feet in his lap.

    “It’s not that I can’t think of any,” Hunter says, cradling his journal. He rubs the soft leather cover, grazing his fingers over the bumps of the many vinyl stickers Luz has given him. “It’s that I’m thinking of too many.”

    “Oh.”

    [Or: Hunter, homework, and some really rather horrible memories.]

    Summary

    “You mean to tell me,” King starts slowly, “that this whole time—”

    Hunter cringes, waiting for the inevitable fallout.

    “—I’ve been the big brother?!”

    Summary

    “Your dad,” Sokka starts, then swallows hard. “Your dad dueled you, burned half of your face off, and then banished you because you spoke when you shouldn’t have?”

    Guilt festers and bubbles like black tar in Zuko’s chest. “I didn’t just speak. I questioned and insulted one of his highest-ranking generals—but the man was planning a massacre! He shouldn’t have—” Zuko clamps his mouth shut, his teeth clicking together, and swallows thickly. “I mean. I found the tactic he proposed very startling, but it wasn’t my place to question such things. I’m sure he had his reasons.”

    “Tui and La what the absolute fuck,” Sokka whispers.

    [Zuko gets imprisoned with Sokka and Katara during the winter solstice, and some very unfortunate things come to light. Alternatively: the gaang kidnaps adopts Zuko in book one after discovering just how awful his father is.]

    Summary

    “Where’s your herd?”

    “Dead.” Tommy steps fearlessly in front of George, glowering at him. “Why? What’s it to you, longlegs?”

    George laughs, lowering his head to look Tommy in the eye. “Oh, spicy. You’re not like your brother at all.”

    “Yeah? Wanna see how spicy I can get?” Tommy says, baring his teeth. “If you don’t leave my brother alone, I’ll go ghost pepper on your flat ass.”

    Alternatively: the one where they're deer.

    Summary

    “I’ve been thinking,” Wilbur continues, because he finds it easy to monologue, apparently, “that you could come and meet my family.”

    It doesn’t sound completely terrible, and Tommy trusts Wilbur. He's never led Tommy wrong before (with the exception of the jellybean fiasco at the fair, which Tommy will not be forgiving). But Wilbur’s family isn’t Wilbur. Who knows if Tommy can trust them? What if they take one look at his collar and ship him back to his owners? It’s what a responsible adult would do.

    Tommy hates responsible adults.

    Tommy, a feral werewolf pup, is adopted by a pack; this goes against all of his best laid plans.

    Summary

    “It’s your soulmates, baby,” his mother whispered. “They’re not here yet. You’re missing them.”

    Phil knew about soulmates, of course, like he knew about dogs and flowers and the sun. He just didn’t understand how he could miss someone he’d never even met. It wasn’t fair. But, fair or not, the feeling persisted. On the good days it was like an itch he could never reach, or a limb he couldn’t fully stretch—nagging, but manageable.

    On the bad days he wanted to scream and cry and smash his fists against the walls.

    Phil is born with pieces missing—four of them, to be exact.

    Summary

    When the god leaves, she goes with it—though she takes care not to touch it again. They travel many li together. At first, it is hard for Ruoye to keep up. Her paws are still soft, her muscles still new, her balance awkward and ungainly. She trips many times. The god never stops to wait for her.

    Fortunately, Ruoye is a dragon and not a dog.

    Every god is granted a dragon. Xie Lian gets his a little later than usual, much to his chagrin.

    There is a knot of tension tucked beneath Xie Lian’s left shoulder blade, and he cannot get rid of it.

    Summary

    "It’s the weekend. You don’t have to get up if you don’t want to.”

    Hua Cheng sighs dreamily, tangling his legs with hers. “I want to spend time with jiejie.”

    “We can spend time together here.” Xie Lian squeezes the back of his neck, digging her fingers into muscle to feel him shudder. “I don’t mind.”

    “Mmm. Do you mind this?” He squeezes her breast again, kissing her shoulder with more intent.

    Hua Cheng and Xie Lian have a lazy morning of snuggles and sex.
