Summary
When Jon finally recognizes them, he stops dead. It can’t be—he looks between Martin and…an older Martin? Is this Martin’s…cousin? And who…who is the person next to him?
The thing about Jon is that he is not, actually, a skeptic. Not in the sense of refusing to believe in the supernatural. He is an academic and as such will subject any story claiming to have supernatural elements to the requisite rigor, namely, Occam’s Razor—pick the possibility that requires the fewest assumptions. Assuming a statement is completely accurate assumes the supernatural is real; therefore, he doubts them. Also, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. (There is…more to it than this. But he pushes those thoughts into a shadowy, cobwebbed corner of his brain.)
However, he can’t fathom this.

The funny title for this is the Eye makes Jon read fanfiction. But this is a sad fic. So the summary is more like:
Jon discovers what might have been.

Summary
A very short fic that popped into my brain fully formed. I think inspired in style by "In Virtue Of Divine Providence" by bluejayblueskies, since I'd just finished it. (That fic is really good!) It happens to be a drabble. Wasn't my intention, but it is.

Summary
"Jon had nightmares as well as good dreams, although they were his own, and not others he was forced to watch. The Fears still wanted to torment him every now and then, apparently. And Martin noticed that he could tell, if he was woken up by one of those nightmares, which Fear was bothering him, by what eyes opened on Jon’s body. "

Summary
Byleth Eisner lived her life as something less than human; an emotionless Ashen Demon, until a chance encounter awakened the humanity that slumbered within her.
This story is a novelization of the events of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, following the Crimson Flower story but using events from the other stories, Cindered Shadows included, to tell the full story of the game. Think of it as "complete" story, not a golden story, and don't come in expecting every character to make it out alive.
There's a heavy emphasis on character-building moments and the slow growth of the Black Eagles and their allies, and I do my best to avoid simple direct portrayals of in-game cutscenes after the first few chapters. The pace is slow but steady, and I keep a strict upload pace of one chapter every other week.

Summary
At age twelve, Frieren is suffering hypothermia, crumpled by her mother’s back door.
-
Frieren’s childhood is no ode, no ballad, and no tale that is told when the elders prattle on about the Hero’s Party.
This is expected, seeing as Frieren is so tightlipped about the matter, herself.
-
Or: A short and sweet introspection following Frieren’s childhood and further. It is not a pretty flower that reminds her of age ten.
