Summary
Eight years after the war between the Paranormal Liberation Front and the Pro-Heroes, Himiko has a new peaceful life thanks to the sacrifice Ochako made for her. Nobody knows she's Himiko, of course, but that's the price she pays to live a normal life. And she's totally happy with it. Totally!
However, when a chance event makes Himiko suspicious of what Hawks and the HPSC know about her, the world she built turns upside-down, and she'll have to face both herself and her past to save what she thought she lost forever.

I'm Sick Of Meaning I Just Wanna Hold You by HarbingerOfSillies

Summary
More than a year later, she still didn’t know if seeing Himiko’s body one last time had been the right choice. On one hand, it should have helped the grieving process; seeing her, knowing she was gone. It meant there was no chance she was still somewhere out there. That final glimpse should have allowed her to move on without dwelling on what-ifs, at least that’s what she told herself.
Some nights, she still tried to convince herself the body wasn’t really Himiko’s, that it was fake, a clone created during the sad man’s death parade that somehow hadn’t turned to ashes. She still told herself that Himiko would be back one day.

Summary
Modern AU: Beau joined the bare knuckle underground fighting ring at the Pit because she needed the money. Yasha is the muscle for a crime lord that just rolled into town. An unprompted kindness, a boundless fascination, and the looming threat of the powers that surround them.

You always knew this day would come. In fact, you knew you had many of them ahead of you. And yet, when your necklace starts glowing, you feel the dread creeping up, the fear of finding out who's turn it was.

Summary
It’s merely a physical thing, at first. Beau wonders what it’d feel like to run her hands down their arms (because, fuck her, Jester and Yasha are really strong), she wonders what Yasha’s chapped lips would feel like against her own, she wonders how Jester’s sharp teeth would feel on her neck.
or,
Beau is a touch starved lesbian and she deserves two girlfriends

Summary
Yasha knows she can be scary and off-putting. Frankly, she takes pride in it. So with Mollymauk spending Thanksgiving with his new boyfriend, Yasha posts a Craigslist ad offering to pose as the world's worst date to anyone who wants to spice up a family dinner. She gets to be awkward on purpose, for once, and she bags a free meal and a way to one-up Molly's stories, so it's pretty much a triple win.
Beauregard hasn't seen her parents in years. When she's forced into attending one last family get-together, she decides to take the opportunity to burn her bridges once and for all. Then Jester sends her this weird Craigslist ad about a seven-foot-tall ex-con who can probably deadlift Beau or crush her between her thighs—dealer's choice—and, well, uh. She can't say she's not interested.

Summary
“Some people, maybe, she has time to think and then Dani is kissing her again. Sighing with relief into Jamie’s mouth, giggling the most beautiful sound she’s ever heard and, okay.
This is something she might be able to keep.”

Summary
L'appel du vide. I read it in a book once. Don't ask me to say it, because I will fuck every sound up, but it's French, I think. Means something like the "call of the void."
When I open up the front door, see the snow, I can feel it. The void. Calling me. Like there's a string tied to my spine, threaded through my ribs, exiting my chest, and from somewhere far away, something is tugging on the line. Just a little pull. Small but insistent.
So I get my boots, sitting there by the door next to Dina's like that's where they belong, and even though it’s the middle of the night I push the screen door open and it whines in protest, like it knows I should stay inside. Like it knows the void has a hold on me and maybe it's calling for help.

Summary
She didn’t know much about Mittens at all, when she thought about it. Sure, she knew she was a star student who got good grades, though not as good as her siblings, and had a surly streak, but what were her interests besides reading? What kinds of food did she like? Did she have a crush on a witch in her class? Emira should’ve been able to answer these questions, but she couldn’t. Maybe she should ask, that might be a good place to start.
Or
5 times Emira tried to get Amity to open up and one time when she didn't have to.

Summary
She's not entirely sure when these feelings developed, or why she didn't notice them before, but now she has and Luz can't just do nothing about them, even knowing that Amity already has her eyes on someone else; her would have been Grom date. Still, she has to try.
Her shot might just come in the form of a masquerade party being thrown at Blight Manor on the night of a blue moon.

Summary
The problem with reconnecting with your childhood best friend is that they tend to remember many of your most embarrassing secrets. Moments you would rather not relive in front of your crush.
But the real danger is in combining that friend with twins who revel in old, childish nicknames.
OR
Luz begins calling Amity by a certain childhood nickname, and Amity's not sure her heart can take it.

Summary
"Camilia Noceda isn’t stupid. She knows that wherever her daughter was during the summer it definitely wasn’t Reality Check. She is also not blind and can plainly see that 1) all of Luz’s friends from “camp” have pointy ears 2) Ms. Clawthorne wears mismatched clothes twice her size and her “dog” actually talks 3) the brochure for their so-called school looks like it’s been scavenged from a kindergarten 4) all of them are absolutely flabbergasted by most human things 5) and less relevantly but very noticeably: the Amity Blight blushes an impressive shade of scarlet around Luz."
The summer ends and Luz has to go back to the human realm. Too bad the Boiling Isles wants her back
