    Summary

    Over the course of fifteen years, there were over a dozen known assassination attempts on Kamyuhn and Sumino Takumi, leaders of the Futuran Rebellion forces. The assailants came from various factions, both Futuran and Human, that attempted to disrupt peace talks between the Futuran and Earth Force delegations.

    However, all of their attempts failed.

    Historians widely attribute the cease-fire and failed assassination attempts to the might of an opposing assassin within the Rebellion Force’s ranks…

    Summary

    Viktor wasn't chasing the fame, or glory, or wasn't bathing in people's cheers, and Jayce just wanted him to stay by his side, so the world could acknowledge his hard work too.
    He was the face of their inventions, but Viktor — Viktor was the heart.

    The truth, stark and brutal, hit him with the force of another blast. He had put Viktor in the line of fire. He had, by his very presence, by his very identity, endangered the man he loved.

    Summary

    The doors close loudly behind him, and Wei Wuxian’s heart leaps in his throat. Then, though nobody has told him what to do in this moment, his lips find their way into his usual smirk and he dips into a perfectly respectful bow.

    “Your Imperial Highness,” Wei Wuxian greets, eyes not leaving the emperor for even a second from beneath his lashes.

    A brief pause—silence.

    “Wei Ying.”

    Wei Wuxian laughs delightedly. “Ah, His Highness does remember my name, what favour he shows this concubine.”

    or, Huli-Jing Wei Wuxian joins Dragon Emperor Lan Wangji's harem, becomes his most trusted bodyguard, falls in love, gets fucked stupid, survives an attempted assassination or two, and brings great fortune to the Jiang. Not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    It's been five years since the end of the war, and marriage is the word on everyone's minds. But Katara knows what that really means. First comes marriage, and then children. She has been shackled with the responsibility of carrying on the airbender line before it goes completely extinct--and it's a mantle she has prepared herself well to take on. She loves Aang, and being a crucial part of history together...well, it's something she is honored to do by his side.

    That is, until memories and dreams start resurfacing as she barrels towards a future alongside the Avatar. And on the night of her wedding, she finds herself starting to spiral just a little. And only Zuko is there to comfort her.

    Meanwhile, the Fire Council has enforced an age-old law upon Zuko: marry by age 21 or forfeit the throne. One too many assassination attempts has them all feeling a bit nervous, and they want to guarantee the royal line. Zuko has resigned himself to a dull, loveless arranged marriage for the good of his nation.

    But then he and Katara are brought back together unexpectedly, forced to work alongside one another. And it quickly becomes impossible to forget what happened between them and the secrets they swore to keep.

    Summary

    “Welcome to the Fire Nation,” I say flatly. “I suppose this will be your new home. Though I wouldn’t get comfortable if I were you. I am not interested in concubines at the moment.”
    Gasps echo down the line. Hands fly to mouths. The sound scraping against my nerves.
    I move on. “You will be confined to the palace walls. Guarded by eunuchs wherever you go.”
    Then I add a bite to my tone. “And should I hear any trouble… There will be severe punishment.”
    The words taste like ash. They sound like him. I force myself to meet their eyes so they know I mean it. “This will be a harem in appearance only. I am far too-”
    And then I see her. The words die.
    Her gown is the colour of pine, patterned in threads of gold. It clings, then falls, loose trousers underneath. A jade pin glints in her black hair. My mouth goes dry. Jin.
    The girl I remember as sweet and soft and has been carved into something sharp. Her cheekbones hollower; her jaw an elegant line. Her eyes, distrusting and yet familiar and dark green, catch mine and widen. Surprise flickers across her face, turning to recognition, then something else. Her lips part.
    And I almost imagine the whisper of a name I hadn't heard in years. 'Lee?'

    Summary

    Following her father's failed rebellion, Celine Riorson, second child and only daughter of Fen Riorson, was fostered with the Sorrengail family. Years later, she would cross the Parapet.

    Summary

    Reborn into a world of shadowy vigilantes, men of steel, champions, warriors, kings, and demi-gods… Medha sets out to try and not only survive but thrive in a world where alien invasions and world ending events are common enough to lose track of which one is happening this week. All while trying to figure out even which continuity he is part of and how he can make the best of it for himself. If he happens to help out a few teens along the way, break a few curses, spark debates on his humanity, and pick up a baby bird well… he's just fine with that so long as no one looks too close at his methods.

    A/N: I am going to try and include a lot of at least mention of canon events / fanon interpretations but as I haven't actually read most of the comics I make no promises. (edit: I am in the process of reading them though) - It will focus mostly on Batfam, Gotham, Teen Titans, and Shazam (/Shazfam)

    Summary

    Lee grabs her wrist, twisting her arm upward, finger circling around a forearm, flashing her round eyes sharply and contradicting her own presence; vibrant atmosphere enveloping when she's suddenly pushing Gaara against the damn wall and it hurts, the jab on her elbow on Gaara’s side hurts, but Lee smiles full of blood. It pools on her bottom lip, pushing up until it trickles down her chin, she's starting to sweat, and she's coming close 

    Leaning over, still smiling like she's not bleeding droplets on wood flooring, sneaking up her other arm right on Gaara’s hip, loose fingers letting go and her left goes to grab a hand, if Gaara expects a kiss of iron she only gets shown her own fingers, Lee twists her up again

    Summary

    It's been just over ten years since the massacre that claimed most of England's royal and noble families, and since Peony awoke in an infirmary with no memory, no identity, and no explanation for how she wound up floating in the Thames.

    Now, at one-and-twenty, she's hit the age of majority and been tossed out of the orphanage to make her own way. She decides to leave England, hoping that the words “Together in Athens” engraved on her pendant—the only link to her forgotten past—will lead to answers about who she is and where she came from. But in order to leave England she needs board a ship, and in order to do that, she needs a ticket and a visa.

    Con artists Colin and Benedict see this as the perfect opportunity: Who better to assist than a pair of brothers who find themselves in need of someone to impersonate the Princess Penelope, who is rumoured to have survived that dreadful night, so that they can defraud the exiled Dowager Queen?

    Peony hesitantly accepts their offer to take her to Athens, in hopes that she might finally find her family. But as they set out on their journey, she soon learns that she is not the only one who's haunted by ghosts.

    Summary

    “Didn’t even look like Sonic, honestly-” Amy starts, and Tails continues.

    “Green spikes, really messy bangs- brown eyes I think? I think he called you Arthur first- said a friend told him you were here.”

    “He did? I didn’t even hear that- he was so quiet asking the receptionist. I didn’t catch it-” Amy tilts her head as she processes the new information. Tails nods, but stops as he notices Sonic has gone deathly still.

    “....Sonic?” The hedgehog in question blinks as he remembers where he is. He looks to Knuckles, who has very conveniently gotten very quiet. A ping comes in on Knuckle’s communicator, and Sonic glances down at it for a moment before making eye contact with an increasingly uncomfortable echidna.
