Summary
Beta male Theo Norcott had fought tooth and nail to prove himself in the ruthless world of corporate finance, only to be overshadowed by Nicholas Hale, the company’s most infuriatingly confident Alpha executive who just bagged the promotion Theo had dreamed about. Their rivalry is legendary, Theo convinced the Alpha teased him simply due to genetics.
When a major client pitch forces them to work together, old wounds reopen, the balance between them shifts. Suddenly, every late meeting, every elevator ride, every stolen moment crackles with tension. Nicholas isn’t just watching him — he’s hunting him, testing the edges of Theo’s resistance with a patience that feels as dangerous as it is magnetic.
Theo tells himself he can hold his ground. That his sharp words and stubborn defiance will keep Nicholas at arm’s length. Yet the more they clash, the clearer it becomes: Nicholas doesn’t want obedience. He wants him. Every part of him.
Yet Alphas are never interested in Betas, right? It’s always the Omegas. But it seems that Nicholas never got that particular memo. And the most dangerous part?
Theo isn’t sure how much longer he wants to fight.

Summary
It seems that near enough every day, a new tale comes whispered of Lucerys Velaryon.
They say that he drowned beneath the waters of Shipbreaker Bay, that what arose from the waves was only the shade of the boy that fell from dragonback.
They say that he struck a bargain with the Stranger or worse god yet to live again, that any life reaped by him and his dragon forms some terrible payment to cheat death over and over.
They say that his dragon is no child of Valyria at all, but a demon from the seven hells, one that sees human and dragon alike only as carrion for the feed.
Aemond scorns each and every story for the absurdities that they are. Luke is as he always has been - a greedy, grasping bastard, bent on his ruin. No ghost, god or dragon could alter that.

Summary
Jason Todd grew up with a fundamental fear of being seen. Not in the sense of shyness, but in the sense of shame. He supposed, if he wished to contemplate the fear’s origins, he might start where most tragedies do:
The house he grew up in.
Where the act of wanting was as good as a death sentence to that desire.
He supposed he might even make an argument for the statement “people become what they are called”. He thinks that might have some merit, looking back.
What he fears most, (like most other people), is how obvious it is to others. The fear itself.
He wonders if they can see it.or
Thanks to a rogue meta, the batfam gets to watch Jason's memories like a movie; and Jason just really wants a family again. But you cannot be loved if you aren't known, and well... if circumstances provide? might as well take the chance, right?

Summary
Returning from a spectacularly successful mission, which is absolutely not a lie, and having secured a scroll of a particular interest to the clan, Tobirama comes across a child in need, whom he absolutely cannot ignore. The issue, though, lies in the fact that the child is undeniably an Uchiha spawn, and its guardian won’t hesitate to make themselves known in due time.
As push comes to shove and things turn from bad to worse, Tobirama thinks that the scroll might have been cursed. If it was cursed for eternal misery, however, or for true love, remains to be seen.
Wherever the road leads, his only choice now is to take it.

“Huh,” Madara stared at him. “You do actually like me.”
“What?!” Tobirama squawked, his mouth gaping like that of a fish. Hashirama looked at him with a startled expression as well, something weirdly sympathetic stuck on his face.
“Shame, you don’t really have a chance,” Madara huffed. “No way I’m getting stuck with a man in this lifetime.”

Summary
When a rare picture of Bakugou smiling leads Class 3A to believe he is in a relationship with Utsushimi Camie, a contest arises to see who can get the most pictures of the couple together.
***
“Umm,” Midoriya said nervously. “I-it’s Kacchan. There is always a spark.”With another round of boos from Kaminari and Jirou, Ashido took a page out of Mineta’s playbook and started shaking Midoriya violently. “I mean like a romantic spark!”
Midoriya blanched. “You think Kacchan is interested in Utsushimi?”
He seemed doubtful, so Ashido shoved Kirishima’s phone in his face. “Do you see this smile? That is the smile of boy who is head-over-heels smitten, am I right?”
Midoriya actually took the time to look at the picture critically, though he shot an uneasy look towards Kirishima before he answered. “Umm, y-yeah,” he said as he started to back away, hiding behind Uraraka like a shield. “It definitely looks like Kacchan is in love.”
How could Kirishima have been so stupid?

... It wasn't that he was annoyed.
Okay, maybe he was a bit annoyed, but that was just the lack of sleep talking. Because a certain explosive punk thought it was a good idea to test the flammability of his sheets at two in the morning. Every single morning.
In which Bakugou's quirk wakes Kirishima up, and Kirishima gets way too invested in his bro's well-being.

Summary
Marcus holds the goblet up, still stinking with klauthgrass, and ponders them, clutched in the wretched claws of his undead monsters. "Well," he says, and smiles. "If you will not willingly drink it, I have a manner of encouragement."
And then he raises his dagger, pricks his own wrist until scarlet pools over his pale skin, and lets blood drip into the goblet.
Before he can help it, Astarion stiffens.
Astarion has spent two hundred years with truth as a bitter enemy. Fitting, then, that his choice to say it is taken from him.

Summary
There is no need for chains. Without magic he is just a man, and not even a particularly fit one. He's no warrior like Karlach or Wyll. He can't overpower a vampire ascendant. He probably couldn't have even overpowered Astarion as a spawn.
Gale swallows his grief as the name comes to his mind unbidden. Astarion is dead, he reminds himself. Killed by the monster who now wears his face.
-
Very bad, no-good timeline in which Ascendant!Astarion loves Gale too much to let him go.

Summary
Back home, Neteyam was a hunter. An unparalleled archer of his age. An expert ikran rider. Here in the reefs of Awa’atlu, it was as if the waves had washed away all of his past—his training, his accomplishments, his stature. Everything except his family and their expectations, because above all else, he was an eldest son.
But there was one thing he hadn’t lost to the water. His hands, that had made his bow from the remains of the Home Tree, that had made the visor he donned on his last ride from the mountains. His hands, that could weave and build. His skills of craft would always stay with him, and they could be just the thing to help the Sully family acclimatize to sea life—the way for him to protect his family.(In which Neteyam uses Na’vi craftsmanship to make gear for swimming.)

“So as long as you say we can come in, we can come in.”
“Well, maybe I don’t want to let you all in. The carpet’s freshly vacuumed and none of you have washed in days.”
“We brought Corellian Whiskey.”
