Summary
A long, long time ago, Taako remembers the perfect memory of his aunt teaching him how to fish. Just the two of them. He decides to give the same memory to some of his friends.

Summary
“Magnus,” he says, choked, and Magnus looks back at him, and he’s remembering, too. He leaves Barry behind and sprints at Taako and scoops him up, wrapping his huge arms around Taako’s waist and slamming them together, like he can’t get close enough. Taako’s legs cinch around Magnus, his arms around his neck, and he holds on for dear life as Magnus sobs into his neck.
(Or: Taako and Magnus get their memories back, and now they need to negotiate some emotions, because they're having a hell of a lot of them all at once.)

Summary
Taako’s senior year at Neverwinter High could be going better. Faced with a choice between joining the school’s floundering newspaper or being expelled, he opts for a career in journalism.
Lucretia, the paper’s editor, kind of wishes he'd gone the other way.

If they had just waited like normal people, Taako would've introduced them to his boyfriend ages ago. But they just had to make a guessing game out of it, so hell, why not play along?

Summary
The ship lies half-constructed in the bay, recently vacated of construction workers for the evening. Late evening. This project has fostered a bewildering obsession in people. None of them get angry about working overtime. They even volunteer for it, without questioning their superiors about pay. It's unnerving.
(This fic is readable even if you're only familiar with one of the two canons! Or potentially neither, though that's untested territory.)

Summary
Fantasy IKEA is big, blue, and beautiful. It’s a shining beacon of good fantasy Swedish design. It’s the kind of place you go to for inexpensive flat-pack furniture to send with your communal child to Lucas’s Academy of Arcane Science, lest he end up with a dorm full of handmade, lavender-scented furniture carved by one of the Seven Birds and lose all hope of maybe being seen as an average boy genius.
It's the kind of place you to go for cheap meatballs and family bonding.

Summary
In a distant plane, Fate brings together seven scientists and explorers, who set out to explore the unknown and find themselves on a mission to save all of existence.
In another, far harsher plane, Fate brings those same seven together again. But these Seven Birds have been shaped by a crueler, much less forgiving world. These Seven Raptors are the villains in their story.
And when the two flocks meet, each of the Seven Birds must come face to face with who they might have been--who they might still become--if they let the darkness consume them.
