Summary
Before Horizon Point, Niles was with the Incognito for six months – not counting hibernation stints.
In the grand scheme of things, it really wasn’t that long – he was at the Academy longer, hell, there are people he met when he was running with Zeb that he knew longer, spent more time in the field with – but he fell hard for the Incognito, for her little crew, for their chatty, principled Commander. Back then he’d be happy to follow him into the jaws of hell and back; would follow his lead unquestioningly, knowing instinctively they were doing the right thing.
Now, though, things hit different.
---
or, niles has a complicated relationship with his commander, their crew and just about everything but he's reasonably certain he'll figure it out at some point

Summary
“If I didn’t know better, it would almost sound as if you want to be at my absolute mercy,” Lex says.
And then he proves it by twisting his fingers into Clark’s hair and giving it a sharp pull back. A damning moan tears from Clark’s throat.
“ . . .to be mine.”
Mine. The word sends a surge of desire so strong it makes Clark dizzy with it. If it weren’t for the ropes, for the sharp pressure of Lex’s fingers in his hair, his knees would buckle, sending him kneeling at Lex’s polished oxfords.
“Oh, Superman.” Lex says with fond condensation, the name clanging like a wrong note. “Your body betrays you.”

Not trusting him out of their sight, but not wanting him to hear them talk strategy they agree to unplug Vox's AV inputs... not realizing until it might be too late that sensory deprivation for a man with no body is probably the worst punishment possible.

Summary

Summary
Zoro always puts himself in the line of fire for the crew. This time, the price is higher than anyone expected. When protecting a crewmate during an ambush, Zoro takes a hit meant to kill, but refuses to slow down. Not when his family are in danger. Not when he is the only thing that stands between them and the enemy.
But it's not during the fight that he feels it, it's in the quiet after where the cracks start to splinter and grow.
The swordsman keeps pushing himself, far past breaking, with his hands barely able to hold onto consciousness. He says nothing. He always says nothing. But when the pain finally catches up with him, he isn't able to stop himself from breaking. He can't do this alone; he won't survive if he does.

Summary
A podcast was supposed to be a project—two friends, one mic, and a way to fill the quiet.
It turns into something else.Jisung hears the world too loudly; Minho has made a home inside silence. Together, they learn to find the balance between static and stillness, between laughter and touch, between what’s said on-air and what hums beneath it.
From calibration tests and late-night bloopers to broken boundaries and unspoken comfort, their show becomes a love story told in waveforms: messy, soft, imperfect, real.
Sometimes the mic catches everything. Sometimes, that’s the point.

Summary
Where do we even begin?! The name alone tells the journey of a thousand missteps...
The name "Dough Bros" was not meant to be, but it stuck because it was named by stubborn guests with "good" intentions, who kept coming back despite the chaos, it was essentially named by neither of them, because they kept fighting over what they wanted the name to be, Brodrick was waiting for them to settle on a perfect name of his choice that they'd ultimately agree they "both" liked, and Romeo kept taking initiative, with trial, and error, naming it something new every five minutes, but it never felt "theirs" Romeo feels like it caters to Brodrick too much as he gets the center stage, and Brodrick hates how informal it is and feels like it isn't a good depiction of his more prestigious full name....
Even their own names are a constant source of tension...
Brodrick, people call him Brody, Brod, even the occasional Rick! He hates all three. His name is Brodrick.
Romeo, people call him that and only that, he desperately wants a nickname, and he keeps trying to create them, none that stick, they feel forced to others.
Brodrick wants purity & tradition. Romeo wants redemption & reinvention.

Summary
Cobalt City is famous for being the home of real-life vigilante superheroes. Kate Harvey, known as Nocturna, is one of them.
Vigilantism is a questionable coping mechanism for dealing with trauma she won’t ever be able to shake, but it works just fine if you ask her. Juggling school and her less than legal job on the side isn't ideal, but it’s nothing she can’t handle. Having something as normal as a relationship wasn’t something she'd ever considered–that is, until she imprints on her new coworker.

Summary
"There's a lot of lead in here - I can't see through anything." Clark stated, his breath a rush from his panic. Lex gripped his hand reassuringly and kept an eye on the navigational markers on the walls.
They kept running, finding themselves down a corridor that looked promising - an exit sign glowing nearby. Clark had to force himself not to dislocate Lex's arm when he realized he had stopped.
Lex was staring into a room with a window looking in. The room was glowing red from artificial red sunlight. Lex placed his hand against the warm glass, his eyes wide with shock at the sight inside.
An incubator with a small baby bundled up inside. It looked like a healthy newborn.

Summary
“Their souls are all mixed up! Right now, this is Ikaruga, and that’s Cuilang,” Mokoshiro said.
Ikaruga looked helplessly at Subaru. “It’s true,” he said. “I didn’t know. I knew he always felt different, but I didn’t want to pry… I only meant to utilize my art to borrow my katashiro as a body to seek out the enemy, not—I didn’t know Cuilang is a doll.” He paused. It was getting hard to think through the haze of panic. “Please help him, he—suffering from shock. Immediate care required. Move patient somewhere sheltered, safe, and warm. I—why did I say-say-say-say—ERROR.”
