    Summary

    He was so hungry. Etho had been keeping pace with the house on wheels ever since Gem had joined up with them…for some reason. Etho wasn’t exactly clear on why, he didn’t have the brain power for processing that right now. His head felt fuzzy and light, his stomach pangs were getting worse by the day, and exhaustion and cold were pressing into his bones. His ears pressed back at the littlest noises, his fur was gray and matted instead of pure snowy white, and these clothes weren't meant for long days out in the deepening winter cold.

    He knew he wasn’t going to succeed. He wasn’t going to win this fight, there was no combination of things he could possibly do that would result in him somehow managing to kill Gem. Yet he had no choice but to persist, because whenever he let his mind falter, it just hurt even worse.

    Not like he’d stopped hurting at any point for weeks now.

    {In which Etho faces the end, Gem grabs a new beginning, Mumbo is anxious about literally everything at this point, Scar is just baking coping cookies, and Pearl and Grian are trying to sibling with relatively positive results.}

    Summary

    They don’t regret it. Even now, with their body sinking into the depths, a trail of blood floating above them, they would do it again. They’re no martyr, no, just a child of the world and a lover of life. They love their family and the empire they’ve built, love the creatures under their protection, dragon or no. They even love humanity, despite their allegiance to the usurpers.

    The thread is coming to an end. They should fear it, shouldn’t they? Death? Fear does not clutch at their heart, however. Tranquility instead floods their system as their eyes begin to close.

    Fire radiates from their neck, just below their jaw. The last image flashes. Black and white streaks, snowy trees, a crooked smile with sharp canines. Leather and herbs and the faintest hint of metal fills their nose as the image fades and darkness overtakes them.

    Love, sorrow, betrayal? None of it matters when Gods want you dead.

    When the usurpers came from beyond the sky, they took that of which was sacred. Decades later, a small blessing is found suspiciously close to the place of their death.

    The Hydro Sovereign is reborn, and the unworthy shall pay.

    Summary

    The first break out of the apocalypse started in the middle of June 2016. Starting as a normal summer day for many, until ‘rabid’ people started to attack others before the day ended. The breakout was small, before it started to affect states within a week. No one knew how a simple day of summer would be named as ‘end of the world’ for everyone across the world.

    Now, 24 years into the apocalypse with no cure and dead walkers taking over most of the population. The remaining survivors from the first outbreak and born after, are still trying to live normally in this new reality. However, some have turned into the worst part of themselves; another struggle for other survivors outside of the dead walkers.

    Summary

    Thomas Cardinal Lawrence has prayed for a new Pope who doubts, a Pope who sins and asks for forgiveness and carries on. Instead, he gets a gentle, otherworldly saint who is far above the troubles and failings of ordinary men. Or is he?

    The first twenty-four hours of Innocent XIV's pontificate turn out to be the best of Thomas's life, and the worst, and then the best again, and then the worst again… Because sometimes the Holy Spirit sends you certainty, and sometimes he sends you a rollercoaster.

    As the wolves snarl and maul, the sheep quail and the sheepdogs scramble to retain control, Thomas learns that still waters run deep, and that friend and foe alike will underestimate this new shepherd of theirs at their peril.

    Summary

    Zevran had never been good at being still. The strains of music floated through his mind even in moments when the world was silent, save when Fen’dareth had led him into the Deep Roads where the silence lay thick upon the heart as well as the ears. Not moving to the near-constant symphony in his mind was a challenge even when his body was in no fit state to dance.

    A challenge that he was presently failing in a spectacular fashion.

    ~~

    This will be the 7th and final part of Pirouettes & Promises, the sweeping epic tale of Zevran and his Fen'dareth. It is likely to be long and sprawling all by itself, but as I am a dedicated discovery writer, chances are excellent we will find that out together.

    Summary

    An AU where Mary never got Nathaniel out. Instead, he became too invaluable of an asset to be killed off or 'gifted' to Tetsuji. Instead, he's raised with Ichirou and Jean as a part of Ichirou's inner circle.

    He'd always had a knack for languages and lying and all the 'messy stuff' came easily enough when your father is called the Butcher of Baltimore. So Nathaniel became the Wraith. He was untraceable, unknowable, infalliable; a criminal fairytale.

    When Kevin Day leaves the Nest, there's no better person to send.

    ~

    "Who the hell are you?" Andrew demanded.

    He wasn't anyone, not really; not anymore. He hadn't really been anyone in years now. There'd been a time. Once. But there were entire lifetimes between who he could have been and what he'd become. He could taste it sometimes; blackberries and sand stinging his tongue like the iron branded on his shoulder.

    It was easier to pretend he'd never been anyone at all.

    "I'm nothing," he answered. The ghost of a smile pulled at his lips; sharp and cruel. "A wraith." The Wraith, he didn't say, but the shadows ran through Andrew's eyes and he wondered if Andrew had heard it anyways.

    Summary

    Bruce Wayne flew via private plane to a private airfield in Kansas. He expected an equally private car to be waiting for him. The car was in fact a 20-year-old pickup truck, popped up by a man in an eye-watering red-and-blue flannel shirt. The driver's long sleeves were rolled up, an acknowledgement of the scorching weather. Bruce was ready to start peeling away layers of his tailored suit like a snake shedding its skin.

    Summary

    Here comes this story.

    It's actually the same as BNHA's Ideas for Fiction, a series of One Shots from the Harry Potter universe. Because even I love BNHA, I love Harry Potter much more, it is the first saga that made me a fan.

    If you have an interesting idea or want to read one about thematic X, put it in the comments. If I feel inspired I will write it down!

    Have a good day and I hope you like it

Koya and Bludgeon have proven themselves useful so far, but additional mutants would certainly be nice.

    Summary

    Omri has left Treviso behind. Rescued from the arms of the Crows by Lace and Varric, he can finally breathe again, even if it means filling his lungs with the nauseating air of the Fade. Killing these mages everyone insists on calling "gods" is a small price to pay for his freedom.

    It isn't until Neve—beautiful, wonderful, ignorant Neve—suggests finding a new Crow that he realizes the leash is still firmly around his neck.

    Summary

    A knock at the door made Bruce jump.

    “Master Bruce. I have Gotham General Hospital on the line for you.” Alfred's voice rang out. “You'll want to take this.”

    Bruce hesitated. The hospital? Who was out? Who would they be calling about?

    He pulled open the door and stopped cold at the look on Alfred's face. The man's lips were tight. His eyes wide. “Sir,” he said. “It's Master Jason. He's been in an accident.”

    “He's okay. All things considered. They won't give me details because I'm not legally family, but they did tell me it's a miracle he survived and was able to walk away.
    But, Master Bruce…”

    The relief that loosened the knot in Bruce's chest dissipated just as fast. If Jason was in the hospital… if they had called Bruce. That meant they had identified him.

    ...

    On a visit home, Jason Todd gets in an accident and is rushed to the hospital. The accident is the least of his problems. Jason's identity is confirmed, leaked, and picked up by an old enemy from the League. One who very much wants Jason dead, and will keep sending hitmen until he gets what he wants.
