Summary
“So,” she said slowly, “I rout your army, kill your friend, and try to kill you, and you answer that by avenging me on Kleon, treating my wound, and abducting me back to Sparta, where you don’t intend to have me executed?”
Alexios blinked. “You didn’t kill Brasidas, Kassandra.”
Whatever. “My name is not Kassandra,” she hissed.
Alexios raised an eyebrow. “Try telling Myrrine that when you meet her. See how far it gets you.”

A lot of things changed after the Battle of Amphipolis. Deimos didn't understand why she had to be one of those things, not that anybody asked for her opinion on the matter. But with a little (unasked for) help, she started to see that a new life doesn't have to be a worse life.

Summary
Kiryu just got out of jail; trying to re-enter society, find a paying job and learn how cell phones work should have been enough on his plate. Instead, on top of all those things he's also trying desperately to pick apart a ten-year knot of Tojo Clan politics before it kills him, keep a little kid safe and fed, relearn how to defend himself, and figure out what happened to Yumi. He simply doesn't have the capacity to also try and understand what the hell is going on between him and Majima.
Majima seems happy to help him out, though. With several of those things. Not that Kiryu asked.

The Five People You Meet in Der Waffle Haus by kurushi for CherryIce

Summary
After you die, if you are fortunate or unfortunate enough to become a reaper, you have very little choice in the people you meet. Roxy's meetings mainly occur in a place called Der Waffle Haus, and they probably aren't the people she'd have picked had she been given any choice.

Summary
But if, if, he could somehow share the load, lessen the burden, it might just be enough.
Humans from this era didn’t have enough psychic energy to sustain a constant telepathic connection, not on their own, but he could create a bond, an open pathway to allow his memories and energy to filter back and forth between them. As Donna was neither his kin nor even his kind the only way to initiate that kind of close connection would be—Oh. Oh dear.
---
The Doctor decides to be a better best friend in the wake of Donna's exposure to the metacrisis. It's not at all motivated by his entirely selfish love for said best friend. Not at all.Bookmarked by waketosleep

One of those rare fics that’s insanely long but also stays on the rails. Action packed, strong visuals, reads not unlike a follow-up movie might have gone.

This vid is so fucking good and has a great marriage of themes between Bucky's story and the song. Also, I love this version of the song a lot.
