    Summary

    “Something really fucking weird is going on.”
    “What?”
    “I don’t know. There’s a new mer, and everyone is convinced he needs to be released right now, even though he’s actively bleeding out.”

    When an injured merman with a purple tail is taken to the Sea Life Rescue & Rehabilitation Center, they know he's different because he doesn't look like any of the other mer species they've seen, but they don't expect him to hypnotize everyone into carrying him back to the ocean with his singing. The siren doesn't expect one of the humans to not be able to hear him.

    Summary

    In another life, Orochimaru never leaves Konoha, opting to remain within the village that equally reveres and reviles him. Fighting a bitter battle against forces within the village that are more influential and well-positioned, he finds himself gifted with one last shining opportunity: three children, a team of genin, handed to him because Konoha has no better choice. Orochimaru agrees to become a jounin-sensei for the first and the last time, taking on the next generation's Team Seven: Uchiha Sasuke, Nara Shikamaru, and Uzumaki Naruto.

    [ A gradual exploration of the author's very liberal Naruto headcanon, with a good!Orochimaru (well, sorta good) who eventually becomes the Godaime Hokage. Lots of chakra theory, cool jutsu, in-depth backstories, character development, political intrigue, and den mother Orochimaru feels! Also featuring: BAMF baby Team 7! Be prepared to suspend your disbelief; this will be another one of my long-running intense worldbuilding AUs. Let's go have fun! ]

    Summary

    The summer before Katsuki begins school at UA, he’s raped during his heat. He tries to move on from it and focus on his future hero career, but his next heat cycle changes things. Not wanting to drop, he creates a plan and enlists the help of Midoriya.

    As it turns out, it was a very bad decision. All he did was make his problem worse.

    Shouta notices his student's struggling. When Katsuki fails to help himself and his health starts to decline, Shouta is there to help.

    How exactly is he going to help? A little exposure therapy.

    or

    "I know what you need, and I don't care how long you fight because I'll win in the end." But make it loving.

    Summary

    “You’ve got ink on your neck,” he said, breath hot against Draco’s ear. “Let me get it.”

    He licked him.

    It was ridiculous. Unbelievable. Filthy.

    Draco nearly dropped his quill. “What the fuck is wrong with you, Weasley?”

    Ron grinned, lazy and smug. “Just curious if you taste like parchment.”

    “You’re disgusting.”

    “You’re hard.”

    Or,
    Ron Weasley was intimately familiar with wanting and not having. It was a skill he’d perfected throughout his life. But this time, he has a problem with it. A pale, tight-lipped, high-strung problem. He’s going to get Draco Malfoy to lose that iron grip he has on his virginity or die trying.

    It’s not seduction. It’s harassment. And it’s working.
