Somebody To Lean On by sagesiren, seekeronthepath

Summary
Jim’s spent years pretending he’s a beta, and he can’t afford for Starfleet to find out he lied on his enlistment forms. So when he goes to Bones to get a new script for suppressants, and Bones needs a reason to put on his file, he’s happy to let Bones say that he’s trans, not lying. But…is he lying?
That’s how this fic started, but it soon became a sprawling exploration of how Jim and Bones might have supported each other in their Academy days, if they’d only had a little bit more reason to cuddle and open up. Together, they face Jim’s transition, Leonard’s family issues, and the increasing difficulty of defining what their relationship is, exactly…all while pursuing their careers in Starfleet. And when they are finally deployed, in response to an emergency transmission from Vulcan, how will they handle each other being in danger?

Summary
To celebrate a decade since my first fic on Ao3, I've decided I want to spend some time infodumping about worldbuilding decisions I've made in my fic, and HOW I make decisions like that.
I do a lot of research and thinking about things like letter-writing styles, transport, societal structures, culture, speculative creature biography, how magic works... and all these ideas come from somewhere! A LOT of briefly-mentioned things in my fic have more thought behind them than appears on screen, and research too. So where do I go looking when I'm building those ideas? What do I research, and what do I just make up?
Comment with your questions, and I'll post my answers as chapters in this work.

Summary
It happened gradually, was the thing. The emperor’s rings were tighter in the evening than the morning; that was normal. And if the fit of the rings changed, little by little, the change wasn’t large enough from day to day for any of them to notice. And then Nemer found himself thinking it was time to contact Dachensol Habrobar about adding some ease to Edrehasivar’s signet ring, and realised all of a sudden that something had changed.
The signet ring had fit perfectly at first, Nemer was sure of it. Hadn’t it? Or was he remembering that wrong? Maybe it had always been a little snug, maybe they had accepted that it didn’t slide on easily in exchange for the security of knowing it wouldn’t slide off easily.

Summary
Severus Snape is a teacher, committed to educating and protecting his Potions students, and his Slytherins. This would be a lot easier if he wasn't ALSO trying to prevent a war, lie to his employer, and avoid a werewolf.
Book 3 of a canon-divergent, Snape-centric series based on the involvement of competent adults.

Tower Tales by seekeronthepath
Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Avengers (Marvel Movies)
20 Aug 2018
Summary
Learning to trust isn't easy, but avenging won't keep you warm. A series exploring the Avengers as a team and family, fitting into the genre I've heard called 'Happy Tower Time'. Canon-compliant up to the end of 'The Avengers', with additional details cherry-picked from comics and subsequent movies. The only pairings planned so far are Clint/Coulson and background Thor/Jane - by far the majority of these stories focus on the platonic relationships the team forms among themselves.

The Tsar’s Indecent Hot Sauerkraut Wrestling Ring: Hot Cabbage Rampage by beautifulduckweed

Summary
Ivan is a simple farmer boy with little to his name, and then the Tsar's men take away everything he has to live for—except revenge. This summer, read the story of how one lowly peasant with nothing left to lose takes on the corrupt national pastime of hot sauerkraut wrestling, and takes down the entire Russian empire in the process.
A story in five I mean six I mean some number of parts because I'm bad at estimating how much plot I have.
