Summary
Akechi's had a good day, and Ren has had a bad one. He’s going to show up to their final meeting smiling and well-rested. He’s looking forward to it. This is going to be easy. It’s going to be fun.
The phone call comes just as he reaches Shibuya station. Akechi leans against the wall, shadowed by a pillar at the Ginza gate, as he takes it. “There’s been a change of plan,” says the man he loathes more than anyone else alive. “Stand by.”

on november 20th, akechi goro kills the leader of the phantom thieves. on january 1st, dr maruki takuto brings him back.
(or: au where akechi's plan goes off without a hitch, and 2/2 goes a little differently.)

Summary
There’s a thrumming coming from somewhere — loud, deafeningly loud, but Ren is the only one who can hear it. It takes him a moment to realize that it’s him: his pulse, his heart, his own rising understanding that something is wrong. “Akechi,” he says, strangled and smiling, “this really doesn’t matter.”
But Akechi is already reeling back, already buttoning his shirt, already gone — again.
“Ren,” he mimics, eyes flashing, “it really does.”
Ren lets details of his first time slip. Akechi doesn't think it's as harmless as he does.

Summary
Harry does not give up the Horcrux when he dies.
Can goodness be a hero’s tragic flaw?
Moved by compassion, he embraces it instead.
Can forgiveness be a gift unconsciously granted?
What follows next, he could not predict. He’s not sure he ever really had a choice in the matter.
Can love exist, even flourish, in a heart that does not give its consent?
The world Harry wakes up to is not like the one he remembers.
This is a horror story.
And his captor is neither the same as he was, nor as different as he would like.
This is a love story.

Summary
“I’m fine," Ren replies instantly, clipped and already distracted by their next target. “Kind of horny, I guess. All your growling and screaming is pretty distracting.”
All of his teammates, Akechi included, freeze. Ren takes a minute to catch up. Wait — what did he just say?
After being hit by a strange attack, Ren can’t keep the truth to himself.

Summary
Ren is not an ideal bedmate, but he is beautiful.
Raven-haired, with alabaster skin and a face utterly striking in its androgyny; Ren is a Classical Beauty by Xianzhou standards, if one ignores the scars, the viciousness, and the hint of fresh blood clinging to him like an iron perfume. And Jing Yuan does.
Jing Yuan is smitten.
In which Blade keeps returning to Jing Yuan’s bed at the end of the day, and that really is the least of Jing Yuan’s problems.

Summary
Amamiya’s smile cuts. “Come on, Mishima-kun. I’m dressed like this. Standing on a street corner. In the red-light district. What were you thinking I was doing?”
Mishima can’t, won’t, refuses to comprehend. Sure, he… he came out here looking for… but not for… not for men. Not for Amamiya. So, he’s…? He’s?
Now Amamiya is sliding his whole hand against Mishima’s cheek, and he trembles under that warm, sure touch. “So, how about it? You don’t want to be alone. I don’t want to be alone.” He winks and Mishima’s knees buckle. “I’ll even let you have it for free. Special rate for old friends.”

Unbelievers by celestialvoyager for evercelle (amagnetism)

Summary
Violent crime accounted for 5% of deaths across the past year. Devil attacks accounted for 35% of deaths, the leading cause in the country. A dangerous world, especially for Saihara, a crime consultant shrinking away from the horror he finds lurking in strangers’ eyes. Everything is upturned by a wrong judgment he makes during an investigation, and a new neighbor wanting to date him out of the blue. Truth and lies are muddier than he could’ve ever imagined.

Summary
When Akira came home to Leblanc, several things became immediately clear to him:
1. Goro Akechi was sitting, alive, at the counter, chin on his hands in a graceful, yet clearly annoyed and impatient manner, staring at Sojiro as if he was trying to send a bullet through his skull with the sheer power of his gaze (for all Akira knew, maybe he was).
2. No one else could see or hear Goro Akechi.
3. Goro Akechi had absolutely no idea that Akira could.

Summary
The centerpiece of the room is a massive fortune wheel. It sits on a black pedestal, the colorful segments each marked with different symbols of some kind. Akira moves closer to get a better look at them.
Out from behind the wheel walks a figure.
(There’s one last obstacle in Sae’s Palace, and when a world based on the principle of unwinnable games gets desperate, things get a little rough.)

Summary
The man standing over him has eyes like knives, sharp and cold and black.
“There are no masks allowed in the Ghost Fortress, Heavenly Official,” he says. His voice is polite, but it too contains knives.
Hua Cheng can appreciate that. A blade is a blade is a blade. Sheathed or pressed to one’s neck, it is still just as sharp. There is no use pretending it is anything otherwise.
The man in front of him is a blade held up to Hua Cheng’s heart, though perhaps he does not know it yet.

Summary
“I’m not—” Akira’s eyes narrow. “I’m not an omega.”
His scent flares up to underline his words, dizzying and insistent with the need to overthrow Goro’s own.
Undoubtedly alpha.
“I’m not noseblind, Kurusu. I know what you are.” Goro pushes his mask off his face, inhaling deeply. “And I honestly couldn’t care less.”
or: Rank 8 but they're both Alphas.
