Summary
Thirty years ago, the war between Earth and Vulcan ended with a shaky armistice. Now, Earth's monarchs hope their volatile neighbors might formalize peace and ally with them against a growing Klingon threat. But Vulcans are fiercely independent, and are currently fighting their own war against a rebel insurgence. An alliance remains unlikely.
In spite of this, the two planets' sons, Prince James Kirk of Earth and Dorli Kahr-lan Spock of Vulcan, find themselves passionately drawn toward each other the moment they meet, and their own private alliance could change everything.

Summary
Jim Kirk is nine when a massacre on Tarsus IV leaves him without a family and without a home. Spock is twelve when a strange boy in the desert saves his sehlat. Families aren't born; they're made. The look in mother’s eyes at his correction remained a mystery long after the colors of the night sky and the complex patterns of distant nebulae had become translatable by means of distinct and relatively straightforward equations.

Summary
Basrar swirls his hands in front of him, and with a burst of magic an ice cream sundae appears on the table.
“Fantastic,” Ayda says. “The creation of something from nothing. A truly splendid use of conjuration. I would deeply enjoy discussing the differences between the conjuration magic of djinn and the conjuration magic of wizards, but I won’t have this conversation now, because it wouldn't be as enjoyable as eating ice cream with Fig. On this date. We’re on a date. It's our first date, I’m very excited about it.”
“She’s my succubus,” Fig says. “Can we get spoons?”

He’s been ignoring this dull ache since he met him. If he could make it hurt anywhere else - his arms, his legs, his stomach - then the ache would go away. It was enough at first, or maybe it wasn’t. Alex doesn’t know anymore. He doesn’t know what he wants.

Summary
“I should take him to one of those special clubs,” Sylvain muses.
Ingrid flushes pink, stalking across the grass to jab him in the chest. “Sylvain Gautier, something is the matter with you."
“He’s not going to therapy,” Sylvain continues undeterred, his tone lilting and high-humored. “We’d have to strap him to his bed to keep him from going to the office, and I’m ninety-nine percent sure he’s still not taking his meds. He can’t live off of coffee and energy drinks forever. Something’s gotta give.”
“A BDSM club,” Felix says the words slowly, like doing so will help him process. “You’re going to take Dimitri Blaiddyd to a BDSM club.”
After Dimitri lands himself in the hospital, again, Sylvain has to come up with something to take his boss's mind off of the job. Luckily for him, Dimitri finds himself enamored with the community, especially after he becomes close with the owner of the club.

Over the centuries, Hob had dreamt plenty of dreams about his friend from the tavern. All good dreams, of course.
Very good dreams.
Usually not dreams that featured either of them wearing very much clothing.
But until the talking bird told him otherwise, he hadn't considered that those dreams might be real.
(Featuring: a live Jessamy, Hob rescuing Dream from the fishbowl, a mess to clean and a happy ending.)

A story with a good balance of darkness and romance. A self-aware tale of obsessive, possessive, unhealthy love.

Summary
Once a well know ballet dancer in St. Petersburg, Victor Nikiforov finds himself exiled to Sakhalin Island as a political convict in 1881. As a man sentenced to katorga he will never return to European Russia or his life on the stage. Known as the "Edge of the World," his life on Sakhalin could not be further from the life he once knew. Strange circumstances lead his path to cross that of a young Japanese man, one of the very few still living on the island. Katsuki Yuuri leads a life of exile of a different kind, one that is largely self-imposed. Drawn to each other, despite their differences, something slowly begins to grow between them. When a narrowly avoided tragedy leaves them stranded together for a long, cold Sakhalin winter, they are challenged to face what their relationship really means, and what future it could possibly have.

Summary
He sees them again.
As toddlers - Bylead tottering after his sister in a clumsy line, his grip on the table edge, his expression solemn and stern.
As five-year-olds - Byleth running ahead of her brother, pausing every now and again to offer him a hand when he stumbled.
As teenagers - Byleth at her brother’s back, bearing the weight of a man’s weapon, ensuring Bylead’s safety and maneuverability, allowing him to reach over her for a counterattack.
Jeralt smiles distantly. He was not fool enough to believe himself a wonderful father but he’d done what he could to ensure they survived. To make sure they would open their eyes to the next dawn. That they would walk side by side to whatever future awaited them.
A retelling of the story with the Byleth twins.

An excellent reimagining of FE3H. Takes everything that made the games good and makes it better. No character is left behind. The Dimileth is so soft; the Claudeth is fun and spicy.

Summary
Victor learns Japanese while in Hasetsu. He doesn't tell Yuuri, and things get dicey when he overhears Yuuri and Mari talking about him in Japanese. Repeatedly.
(The subtitle of this fic should be: Victor Nikiforov really needs a hug. Luckily, he gets one. Eventually.)
~~~
“No,” Victor says, skating up to Yuuri on the ice, “you have to push all the way from here, or you’ll never get the height you need for that axel.” He sets his hand on Yuuri’s ass, tracing the muscle group he’s referring to. “Not here.” He taps Yuuri’s thigh. He doesn’t know the words for the muscles in English, only knows how to show him.
Yes, technically he’s grabbing Yuuri’s ass, but how else is he to communicate?

Summary
“Did the doctor send you?” When Yuuri doesn’t reply fast enough, since he's still gaping like a fish, he turns to Yuri. “Did the doctor send him? Because wow,” He drops his arm and presses his hand to his chest like the dramatic bastard he is. “You’ve got to be the prettiest man I’ve ever seen.”
“Oh my god,” Yuri groans. “Is he hitting on you?”
(In which Yuuri worries, Viktor's on the good drugs, and Yuri puts up with a whole bunch of bullshit.)

Summary
And it’s just. It’s too much. Weeks of pain and months of missing Steve and his mouth and the stupid shit that comes out of it; years of molding himself to his back at night and pretending there’s nothing else to it apart from sharing warmth; a decade of his stomach twisting with the foolish desire to make Steve laugh.
It's August and sweltering when Steve asks, out of nowhere, if Bucky wants to try kissing. Just to see what it's like. Bucky then spends far, far too many years pretending it didn't mean anything at all.- Language:
