Summary
Astarion wracked his brain. Surely he would have remembered such a delectable creature at school functions. He imagined the tiny classroom and then it hit him.
The man often lingered near the back, a wallflower amongst the thorns that was the PTO. How hadn't Astarion given him attention before.
Oh, yes. That's right. He was focused on preventing sticky hands from touching him.
A blush blossomed across the man's face. "Well, um, thank you. Usually compliments are directed towards my intelligence, not my appearance."
"What a pity." Astarion waved a hand, dismissing the comment. "Come to me anytime if you're looking to be buttered up, um…"
"Gale. My name's Gale." Gale offered a shy hand, waiting to shake Astarion's and after, pointing at his daughter. "And that's Penelope."
"Astarion, and my…my daughter. Her name is Iris."
-or-
Astarion is suddenly a father after a kid appears at his door and he meets Gale and his daughter at the park.

Summary
Sakura Haruno is ten when she first sees Konoha. And her feet are planted firmly for the first time, spreading roots among the trees and people that feel like home
Yet still...
A hunger gnaws deep within her chest, pushing and pulling at the pit in the bottom of her stomach, searching for something she can't quite name. It rumbles and burns in her belly, leaving a sickening sweet taste on the inside of her cheeks.
Sakura is ten when she comes home for the first time —her father wrapped in a blanket and a hollowness in her chest— and the trees rejoice with her happiness. And burn with her anger. And wail with her despair. And beg her to reach out and satiate her hunger.

Summary
“We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin.”
― André BerthiaumeWill Graham, a man who is as haunted as he is gifted by his ability to empathize with even the most deranged minds, has spent the last four years carving out something resembling a normal life for himself in Wolf Trap, Virginia. A nice home, a steady teaching career, and a few acquaintances that politely ignore his eccentricities... it's everything that he never dared to allow himself to dream of having. But when Jack Crawford shows up at his door with the chance for Will to enter the field, he finds himself unable to resist the thrill of the hunt for a killer.
What starts as a simple consultation quickly spirals out of control as Will's talents and presence on the case become publicized and draw not only a combination of support and ridicule, but also cause a long dormant serial killer to emerge. The Chesapeake Ripper strikes again, for the first time in years, luring Will Graham down a dark path of murder and betrayal; as well as into an entanglement with the strange and enigmatic Dr. Hannibal Lecter.
