Summary
You’re tired. Not the kind of tired that sleep fixes, but the kind that settles somewhere behind your eyes and refuses to leave. The kind that makes everything feel heavier than it should. Losing your job didn’t help. One day you had routines, deadlines, something resembling stability and the next, it was gone. And then there’s your roommate, silent giant ready to kill you in seconds. Somewhere between shared silence and late-night passing glances, you realize the problem isn’t just living together anymore, it’s that you’ve fallen in love with him.

Summary
Future historians may have questions.
The following events were, in hindsight, entirely predictable. Unfortunately, this did not stop them from occurring.
Palace records will likely show that everything proceeded smoothly.
This is not true.

Summary
TO GROW WINGS pt. 2
Luz, Gus, and Hunter are the only ones to make it through the portal. Trying to get back to the demon realm is now nearly impossible. As if the guilt of helping Belos find the Collector isn’t enough, Luz is carrying a grim, disgusting secret for Eda. But she swore to be quiet, knows what happens if she isn't, so she copes in what ways she can—Whether that be partying with her weirdo friend Masha, slicing her skin off, or wrecking what's left of her innocence.
Hunter isn't doing any better, still reeling from discovering his life is a lie. But they know and trust each other with their secrets... Luz with the Collector, Hunter being a clone... and that trust scares the shit out of Luz. She has responsibilities, she needs to keep Eda under control. She can't abandon them for her own happiness, now can she?
(S3 timeskip and S3E1, but an au where Eda had been grooming Luz which left her traumatized. Amity and Willow didn't go through the portal, leading to different plot outcomes)
Note: This fic is about abuse, including grooming, SA, incestuous CSA, child abuse/neglect. I do not romanticize these topics. This is angst, not porn.

Summary
"Was there... was there truly a need for you to kiss me, Merlin?"
"You were drowning, Arthur. Believe me, kissing a stubborn, ungrateful royal idiot was not on my itinerary today."One is an Ezaki, a prince searching for the Lake of Avalon to tear down the walls between their worlds. The other is a sorcerer, risking everything to seal the sword forever within its hidden waters.
Beginning in Constantinople, the heart of the Eastern Roman Empire, and stretching deep into the Sassanid Empire to the ancient city of Gundeshapur—this is a journey set in 540 AD, where real historical events interweave with a high-stakes "Enemies to Lovers" romance.
✾
Long ago, as humans and Ezakis faced mutual destruction, their kings knelt before the sacred sword in the Lake of Avalon. A history written in blood was sealed with peace, and the Khazar Era began.
Until Uther Pendragon rose to power and turned that peace to ash. Desperate, humanity turned back to Avalon. The lake's magic raised a colossal, insurmountable wall between the two realms. The magic was never to be broken; the gate, never opened. Yet, on the day the world tore in two, a power was born to change everything—Merlin.

“That thing is definitely AI - look at the wing-claws.”
Martin frowned. “No… I doubt it - Jon sent the photo to me and I don’t even think he knows what AI is, let alone how to use it.”

“If you leave,” Ryland pulled himself to his knees, “You’ll die.” He pressed his hands to his knees and stood to his full height.He lunged again, driving the stranger’s body into the wall. A pained roar echoed off the walls and threatened to drown out all else. A fist connecting with the side of his head. His vision blackened, vignetted at the edges. Grace screamed an answering roar of his own. Before his legs gave out, he dug in his heels, struggling against the man fighting for his life against him.

Summary
To get stronger you’ve got to fight stronger enemies. An idea deceptively simple in concept, yet growing undeniably difficult in execution for Lohen.
Whatever it’d been that Nicole wanted to teach him was, honestly, an ‘in through one ear out the other’ kinda deal for the most part, except for one little tidbit:
Dragons.
To fight one would undoubtedly be exhilarating, and now the idea wouldn’t leave his bloodthirsty mind. It’d been only logical, then, that he needed to find himself a dragon to fight.
And, well, there just so happened to be one within stalking distance. With bright, innocent eyes… yet a thirst for violence matching Lohen’s own.
