Summary
Izzy reflects on his marriage and on his struggles with pregnancy.
On days like this, he wonders if he really really made the right choice, marrying Ed.
When they announced their engagement, everybody and their mother had something to say about it. Why would an attractive, virile alpha like Edward Teach choose such an old omega when he could have anyone he wanted? Izzy knew he was something of a spinster, but the words still stung. Ed always brushed the questions off, laughing and pointing out that heats didn’t just stop once an omega turned 30. Izzy loved him all the more for it, and he tried so hard to believe that his husband meant it, that he truly didn’t mind.
Still, he knew it wouldn’t be as easy to get pregnant as it would have been ten, fifteen years ago.

“I’m so sorry for your loss.” She bowed her head in respect, then looked up at Mina, studying her face. “Come to think of it, I can’t say I knew that Mr. Myoui had any children…” A prying question, but it made sense for a newspaper editor. It seemed she realized the nature of her inquiry and proceeded to walk it back in a series of stutters. Mina, however, was caught in calibrating her reply.
Neither did I, technically.
My aunt told me he was dead.
We were estranged.
She hid everything from me.
Everything.Mina smiled at Jihyo, feigning reassurance. “It’s complicated.”

Summary
This story is a dark, raw, gritty, psychological, dramatic, obsessive, abusive, slow-burn romance between FAE officer Johnathan Preston and Librarian (secret activist) Wynelle Wu. Society is still recovering from the Atomic Wars, and the government has tightened its grip on the populace, enforcing strict 'Traditional American Values.'
In this world, the "Synthetic Scare" is what fuels the fear of androids, who are scapegoated as threats to human purity after beginning to demand human rights. Paranoia runs high amongst communities, with the government hunting android sympathizers.
The story starts when the government arrested Wynelle for sympathizing with those dangerous androids.
And who’s leading this operation? Just some old college acquaintance whose face she could barely remember.
Now he's offering her a deal she can't refuse: either she's off to a high-security labor camp, or she agrees to a little walk down the aisle. And what’s her crime? Sympathizing with those dangerous androids, of course! Surely she's not some tin can lover, right?

Summary
City park bathrooms aren’t famous for their cleanliness, nor on weekend nights under the dim illumination of streetlights are they the pinnacle of a family friendly experience. Surrounded in the quiet chatter of a few other men, lingering around the ins and outs of the space among clouds of stagnant smoke and curiously wandering eyes. Steve had given up this particular setting a long time ago for one less public, safer if anything could ever earn that title in these fragile contexts, but the thrill was never quite there.
The adrenaline, the anonymity, sometimes even the danger. He couldn’t get that same rush of fear in the basement of a well known bar, hidden far away from the public eye. Shielded within a tight bubble of familiarity and inclusion. The craving for the opposite is foolish, he above all knows that for a fact, but a boring life which lacks the substance of his own truth does nothing to keep him in the way of a usual family man - loyal and absolved of personal fault.
OR...
There's far more than meets the eye to this secret affair with an innocent young man that just seems to keep wandering his way into Steve Harrington's crosshairs.

Summary
“Father?”
A soft voice broke through the Priest's daydream. It had a hint of an accent, low and thick like honey or maybe molasses. The father closed his small book, tucked it away in his robes before turning his attention to the screen between the booths. He could just make out the shape of what he knew was a young woman. It was hard to see her features, but her purple hair was familiar. Imogen Temult.
“Yes, my child?”
“Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. It has been 10 years since my last confession.”
"Ten years? You are so young, would that put you at-"
"First communion. The last time I was in confession was the first time." The honeyed voice clarified. "It was right after that that mama left and I just- I hadn’t felt like I had much to confess that was worth taking time of our good Father."
"Well, what brings you back today child?"
"My daddy said I needed to come in and give it a try. Said it would be good for me. So, here I am." There was just the slightest edge of defiance in her voice. Something Father Thull had not expected from the slight of a girl.
"And why does your father think you need to come in, dear child?"
"He thinks I'm wrong. That I am broken."

Summary
In the picture-perfect suburb of Szarr Hills, behind every smile is a secret. Astarion plays the charming housewife for a man obsessed with life and death. But what Cazador really wants is control: over people, over bodies, over pleasure itself. With a chronic illness, a quietly traumatic divorce, Dr. Dekarios is not exactly looking to get in the middle of whatever is going on at the Szarr household. Unfortunately, he's found himself in the crosshairs.
This is a "period piece" extremely loosely based on the 1950s/early 1960s (more of the US-flavor) mashed with the Forgotten Realms.
