A garden of things that will never regrow by I_eat_children74

Summary
Buffy is dead. Dawn thinks she might as well be dead to. Buffy's friends have really tried, they have. Mostly Tara and Willow but still. She knows they're trying there best, she really does. But who wants to deal with a griefy teen girl, especially some fresh-out-of-collage kids. Dawn lost her sister, but they lost their friend too.
They also happen to be dealing with keeping 'The Slayer's' death a secret. No wonder they don't have time for her. No one does. Well, not no one..
Second fic ever so do with that what you will. I felt that the Spike and Dawn relationship got shafted so I wanted to explore it a little more.
Also Jenny Calendar is alive in all my fics and my heart. RIP Jenny.- Language:

Summary
Hermione Granger knows she’s dying.
Her body is wrecked, magic splintering and frayed.
She won’t beg. She won’t break.
She’ll rip him to pieces with what little she has left.
No mercy. No redemption.
And if it kills her— good.✦
“Who did you fuck to get this invitation?”
“No one,” she said.
Simple. Unshaking.
And then, almost as an afterthought, her lip curled.
“But if I had,” she added, “the cunt would have begged.” -

Summary
“Piper could remember times as a young child where she would sneak out in the evenings and trace the etchings of the gravestones, feeling the rough granite under her fingertips as they traversed around names and dates she had not yet been capable of reading. Her father had not been keen about the habit but her grandfather held no qualms about it. Grandpa Tom had told her that it was a good practice to spend time with their ancestors, he encouraged her to speak to them, to narrate about her life and how the world was.
Despite all the encouragement he fed her while he was alive, words wouldn’t come to her now. How could she encompass all that had been the past half-decade of her life since he passed? How could she find the adequate words to narrate about the loss she had experienced? Would he recognize who she was now? Would he still care for the type of person Piper had become under crushing circumstances?”

Summary
Jackson is safe. Joel Miller knows better than to trust that.
Peace isn’t something he understands — it's not something he deserves. He’s never questioned the price of survival, never lingered on choices that couldn’t be undone. The life he’s built is functional, necessary, distant.
Protecting people has never been optional, it’s who he is. He’s lost more than he’s saved, and the weight of that doesn’t disappear in Jackson. Then, someone enters his orbit — not loudly, not all at once, but in a way he can’t ignore.
He’s kept his distance for years, believing that caution is the only way to live with loss. But this? This is different.
For the first time in a long time, survival isn’t the only thing that matters.

Summary
Buck had always known people leave. Ex-girlfriends, friends, broken promises—he’d lost count. But when Eddie announces his plan of going to El Paso, something inside Buck shatters in a different way. He does what it takes, until one day, he can’t take it anymore. With no plan, no fixed destination, just a backpack and an endless road ahead, Buck decides to escape the pain the only way he knows: by running. But the farther he travels, the more he finds himself confronted by memories, the ghosts of what he’s lost, and one unexpected question: is he running toward a new home or simply running from the fear that he never truly had one?
Eddie never hesitated when it came to his son. Christopher was his compass, his greatest reason to keep fighting, and when he gets tired of having his son away, Eddie doesn’t think twice before leaving everything behind—including Buck. El Paso takes him through unfamiliar roads and a journey that isn’t just about repairing his relationship with his son, but about finding himself. In the midst of chaos, worry, and missing his life in Los Angeles, Eddie realizes that maybe his feelings for Buck have always been deeper than he was willing to admit.

Summary
“Say that again.”
Caitlyn was watching her. Still. Eyes sharp, posture taut. Something was wrong. Vi blinked. Then it hit her.
Oh, for fuck’s sake.
It wasn’t panic that followed. Just cold consternation. She’d done it again. Quoted her fic. Unconsciously. Stupidly. Once upon a time, it had been a game, dropping Caitlyn’s old lines to see who noticed. A flirty little social test to catch the queer ones off guard.
But she’d done it here. With her.
“…Dunno,” Vi shrugged. “Sounds poetic. Probably read it somewhere.”Vi can handle stunts, fake blood, and fight scenes. She’s not ready for Caitlyn.
Her favorite author is colder in person, stunning with a rifle, and very much not charmed by Vi’s jokes.
Shame, since Vi’s been quoting her smutty fic for two years. -

Summary
500 years... Does it sound too much? Probably not. But ask someone who lived those years. Someone who was unable to be happy. Someone... Who believed in a lie. Ask someone who served that much time just to realise that what they protected and believed was actually all a lie, and everyone is against them now. Ask someone who is suitable enough to answer.

Summary
Alador never gave much thought to dating again after his divorce. With reconnecting with his children, rebuilding the Isles, and inventing a way to remove the Coven sigils, he didn't have the time. And if he did, he never would have considered Darius, his ex-best friend and sworn rival. But after Darius’s attempt to kiss him after the first successful sigil removal, Alador found himself doing exactly that. But, not at first. First was a game of wits, a competition of who could out-surprise the other. Love was war, after all, and defeat would come at a great cost.

Summary
Kaveh: The man who would instead internalize everything rather than ever allow himself even to attempt to burden someone else with his problems.
Or, in which Kaveh girl bossed a little too hard and managed to spiral himself into a time loop (deluxe edition) that would force him to solve his emotionally stunted problems or face the consequences.
"Is something the matter, Kaveh?" Alhaitham's voice, despite its oddly low and soft nature in the morning, stabbed into his brain, prying his focus away from the stupid mug and up to Alhaitham's face. Alhaitham's brows were once again raised in question, but Kaveh could see the slightest quirk at the corners of his lips.
After a long, blank moment, Kaveh blinked and shook his head, mumbling "No," and turning away with his—Alhaitham's—mug in his hand.
Neither of them said another word, instead just puttering about their morning in silence as if everything else was completely usual.

Summary
Had I a nickel for each time the elder named his brother 'enough,' I’d hold but two—which is spare change, but still strangely enough.
A true collector of rare specimens, Icaricia Alis finds one at last. Soft enough to believe, insignificant enough to be dealt with personally: a slave with the heart of a lion. Strangely enough, she’s the one being pin(n)ed.

Summary
He isn't real. That's what the roaring in your ears keeps saying, if you listen closely. God, how fitting is it that you go out listening to roaring of your own design? Karmic justice in action, you guess.
You hope to god you'll manage the job properly here. You want this to end. Even though you feel wretched about how much it will hurt for your mom and dad, for--no--and for Noelle, for Susie, for Ralsei--
But he isn't even real.
Your fingers tighten on the edge of the window. Real. What a joke. If it's a question of who's real, you were out of the running a long time ago.

Summary
Sometimes it isn’t safe to have a real name. Or a real self. Anything that can’t be shed and replaced in an emergency is a weakness.
No one knows that better than Neal Caffrey.
