    Summary

    Rumi just wanted a quiet semester, but that plan quickly turned upside down when Mira — stupidly infuriating, loud, reckless Mira — walked into her life. Through the petty annoyance and harsh feelings, there's something underneath it all that neither girl can quite put a name to, and they start to wonder if their hatred for one another is really the only thing between them.

    OR

    Rumi and Mira are instantly rivals as soon as they look each other in the eye, but soon enough, both of them are realizing hate isn't the only thing they're feeling.

    or

    A story that's definitely been done before

    Summary

    Set immediately after the Thunderbolts* press conference.
    Kate Bishop is fine. Totally fine. Even if she returns to NYC to discover three very inconvenient things:

    She somehow missed a city-saving event,
    The Avengers have reformed—without her,
    and
    Yelena Belova seems to be leading them.

    She’s fine.
    …Until a stolen hard drive drags her into an international mission with Yelena as her partner.

    Now it’s Paris rooftops, Yelena's ex's, Budapest car chases, Yelena in a suit, Russian winters, and Yelena's nickname for her. She is definitely not letting Yelena Belova take up permanent residence in her brain.

    She’s fine.
    …Until she’s not.

An early 2000's feedism fic about two young black men growing into who they've always wanted to be and embracing who they are that eventually becomes a big polycule (lol see what i did there <3)

    Summary

    This story picks up a few months after the end of Onyx Storm. Violet and her allies are losing badly to the dark wielders, friends and loved ones already dead, their defenses crumbling. Xaden is gone, consumed by venin power, and despite months of searching, Violet cannot find him or any cure.

    Then Andarna returns from her time with the Irids, more mature and aware of her abilities. She re-bonds with Violet. She reveals that Irids have a unique connection to magic, making what they channel flexible, able to be shaped to nearly anything. Together, Andarna, Tairn, and Violet decide their only hope is to bend time itself.

    Their plan: send Violet, Xaden, Andarna, Tairn, and Sgaeyl back to the months before the apostasy. Aaric (Cam Tauri) and his dragon Molvic, gifted with foresight, confirm that this path offers a chance at victory with one catch: Duke Fen Riorson must be convinced to organize a rebellion in secret, working from the shadows to avoid Melgren’s battle forsight, rather than declaring open secession and plunging Tyrrendor into war against Navarre. Any course that puts Tyrrendor on a path to direct military conflict with Navarre cannot win.

    Or, another Fourth Wing Empyrean time travel au.

    Summary

    Newly out of the one terrible relationship he's ever had, Ten wants to live his life again, to feel things in technicolor after eight years of being slowly washed out and left to believe he's a dull gray. He wants to flirt, to date, to fall in love and he thinks he's found just the guy -- his very cool and very handsome personal trainer, who is probably an expert at dating and romance and who wouldn't want to waste his skills and his looks on someone as plain and boring as Ten.

    Convinced he wouldn't be worth Johnny's time as a lover, Ten proposes a different sort of partnership. Personal Training for romance. Learning how to flirt and date and love again one rep at a time. Strictly professional, strictly practice.

    How could Johnny say no?

    Summary

    The Ultimate Institution is an international agency dedicated to scouting and cultivating the world's hidden talent—the diamonds in the rough. Starting out as a small company, over the years, it has grown into a global force, exemplifying what it means to cultivate humanity's potential. Those who accept 'Ultimate' titles granted by this agency are destined for greatness, bookmarking their page in the great tome of history. With all of the world's most skilled at its fingertips, the Ultimate Institution can accomplish any task, no matter how impossible.

    One question permeates the glamorous mist the Ultimate Institution has over the world, however—what would happen if an agency so grand realized how much power it truly has? Would it continue to operate impartially, or would it *use* that power? If so, then, what would it mean to resist the gatekeeper of modern innovation?

    --

    Fourteen Ultimate title holders, after a brief stay in a strange hospital none of them recognize, are dropped into an arena where they must outwit their ultra-talented peers or die trying.

    Summary

    Orphaned at a young age and abandoned in a hostile village, Reyvan has learned to survive on her own. But she never learned how to regain the light magic that was stolen from her, or how to destroy the shadowy curse that took its place.

    But everything changes when the party from the crown city arrives. Bound and taken from her village by the king's merciless Enforcer, Kylo Ren, Rey is desperate to escape whatever fate the cruel usurper King Orin has planned for her.

    But Kylo has his own secrets and plans, and he won't let her ruin them, even if he feels a strange pull towards her that never seems to cease as they travel together. As much as she aggravates and intrigues him, he needs her. And then...then he wants her. Desperately.

    The way he makes her heart slowly soften terrifies and thrills her. But when his secrets are revealed, she soon realizes he has the power to alter her history and irrevocably change the course of her future.

    With the fate of the kingdom at stake and vengeful gods at their backs, can Rey and Kylo right ancient wrongs, or will they lose everything, including each other?

    Summary

    Everyone always said the cauldron loved Elain. As it turns out, it loved her so much it stole her heart.

    And now it is up to her – and Lucien, the mate she never asked for – to get it back.

    Set in late summer after the events of A Court of Silver Flames, Elain and Lucien travel together across Prythian to the Mortal Realm, through Spring Court and finally to Day. But when getting a heart back entails so many risks, is it even really what Elain wants?

    This is a story of healing and redemption, the importance of choices, and power beyond magic or brute strength - the kind of power it takes to be joyful and gentle in a cruel world.

    “Yes there is the mating bond, Elain. But… there is also my heart.”

    Summary

    In another universe, Shadow was created by alchemists who dwelled among the stars. He now spends his days as a hunter, travelling the world to safeguard it from threats, whether they be human or monstrous. But when the hunters' guild asks him to investigate a case of unusual activity in a desolate, rain-soaked town, he is left with more questions than answers. Rumour has it that a monster dwells in the castle above the town, and so begins a decadent, dangerous dance between a battle-scarred hunter and an alluring femme fatale, both of whom are willing to use any means necessary to survive this star-crossed encounter.

    Summary

    Amidst the blossoming recent developments of their relationship, Feng Xin and Mu Qing are summoned to investigate strange new occurrences in an island shared between their two southern domains. They quickly realize that the island holds secrets which may be beyond even their comprehension: declining worship, broken arrays, poisons, a cult leader, an atheist governor, inter-sect conflict, political instability, a vibrant red-light district, a mangrove monster, ghostly interventions, and a secret history which cannot remain buried forever....

    Feng Xin knows that he and Mu Qing are something. But is it love, or is Mu Qing only curious about one thing? And can they clear up their misunderstandings, or is courting Mu Qing a bad idea from the start, doomed to fail like his last great love?

    Mu Qing doesn't know what he wants. He knows that Feng Xin is attracted to him, but will Feng Xin stay by his side once he gets what he's after? Is it worth the risk of opening up, or is he putting his cultivation--and their current relationship--in danger?

    Title is from Li Yu's poem, My Idle Dreams Roam Far (Gazing at the South).

    Summary

    “…You gave my jacket back through someone else.”
    “I didn’t want to see your face.”
    “Oh.”
    “Kidding.”
    They ate in silence.

    When Childe lands in Sumeru to oversee the Northland Bank after Inazuma’s upheaval, he collides once again with Lumine in an assignment from the Fatui. What better way to shadow the Traveler’s every move then pairing up for a mission on leyline disturbances and crystals by the shore? Yet the roommate hosting traveler at the Akademiya becomes a thread between Lumine and Childe, folding into the silence and sparks neither dares to name.

    The Abyss is a mirror, staring back with sins distorting your reflection.
    This isn’t exactly a love story. Love just happens to thread itself in unexpected ways. This, is a beach episode. One bikini is the mark of an international incident.

    “You ever heard the phrase ‘History doesn’t repeat itself but often rhymes’?”
    “No.”
    “Well now you have." She taps her papers. "A curse was put upon the rest of the Angels: if they ever fell in love with an individual, they would lose both body and mind, becoming Seelie doomed to drift the world forever.” She reads from her scribbled handwriting. “Teyvat, I believe, sees love as a sin.”

    Summary

    Regina Mills just wanted to get through the Florence airport without a headache—or a smug blonde translating her life choices in broken Italian.
    Emma Swan didn’t mean to annoy the uptight businesswoman; it’s just sort of her natural talent.
    One shared flight, two too many coincidences, and a handful of bad decisions later, they keep running into each other in new cities. It’s infuriating. It’s suspicious. It’s... weirdly fun.
    A slow-burn romantic comedy where sarcasm flies faster than planes, and “purely coincidental” starts sounding a lot like destiny.

    Summary

    Peter’s just trying to live his life as a normal omega — as normal as an omega can be after being bitten by a radioactive spider. What he certainly did not need while out of costume and quickly falling into heat was to run into Deadpool. Alphas usually didn’t take kindly to what happened to Peter during his unique, super-powered heats. Turns out, Deadpool is the absolute opposite of upset about it.
