Summary
Fingon's spirt doesn't move on after his death, but rather attaches itself to Maedhros and changes the course of the future of Arda. Maedhros choses to atone for his actions rather than go forward with the Fourth Kinslaying. However spirits aren't meant to dwell in Middle Earth and those that do fade away. Maedhros and Fingon must deal with the consequences of their actions while trying to forge a new path ahead.

Summary
In Lumière, soul bonds are not gifts - they are obligations.
Verso Dessendre has spent years perfecting the art of staying untouched. Once a prodigy, now a soldier, he's learned that wanting anything is dangerous. His hands are scarred. His reputation is carefully constructed. And he has no intention of letting anyone close enough to see what lies beneath.
Gustave Virlogeux is the Academy's most reliable engineer - the one who fixes what the system breaks, who never asks for anything for himself. His prosthetic arm glows with borrowed Chroma. He's useful. Essential. Alone.
When destiny pairs them together, neither is prepared for what their connection will cost—or what it might save. As Lumière's bond ceremony approaches, they—along with Verso's sister Alicia and Gustave's ward Maelle - will discover that the system they trusted might be more fragile than anyone realized.
A story about two people learning that sometimes the most broken things fit together in ways nothing whole ever could.

Summary
Gustave tried to remind himself that he actually enjoyed showing new people around the wildlife rehabilitation facility. Most of the times he did this, he was able to tell someone something new, and watch a spark light up in their eyes. It even happened with snooty rich people. Sometimes.
That was how the three Dessendre siblings found him.Bookmarked by Samking

Summary
The Pride & Prejudice AU you didn't know you needed // Arranged marriage to love // Slow burn
"Why?" Verso asked, his pale eyes fixed on Gustave's face with unsettling intensity.
"Why sacrifice yourself for her?"
The question caught Gustave off guard. He opened his mouth, closed it again, searching for the right words.
"Because she is my sister," he said simply. "And I would do anything for her."In Belle Époque France, an old promise binds two families. When the promised bride refuses, her brother steps forward instead — binding himself to a man shaped by pride and expectation.
Gustave Virlogeux is practical, dependable, and entirely unremarkable — or so he has always believed. Verso Dessendre is composed, untouchable, and dangerously perceptive.
Their engagement is duty. Their courtship is stolen glances, careful distance, and the maddening warmth of a hand that lingers a moment too long.But what begins as obligation unfolds into a slow reckoning with everything they cannot say — until what was never supposed to be real becomes the only thing that is.

Summary
Pride Night was supposed to be the easy part.
Then Dallas Kent showed up, Troy Barrett threw the first punch, Ilya Rozanov stopped the fight, and Ottawa won a game nobody felt much like celebrating.
By morning, Dallas was in custody, Ilya was in hospital, and the internet had decided everyone knew exactly what had happened.
A week later, injured, furious, and barely holding himself together, Ilya tries to get back to hockey.
Instead, he gets a camera.
One soft question.
One honest answer.
“My boyfriend.”
It is the truth.
It is also the one thing he and Shane were supposed to choose together.
Based on a Reddit fic prompt by u/backtothefuture2028.

Summary
“Grigori has never liked that Ilya plays hockey here," Svetlana says. "He has always wanted him to play back in Russia. When he hears about the Ottawa trade, he will be worse than before. You must not let Ilya do this, do you understand?”
“Would he?” Shane asks.
“Grigori is dangerous because he is persistent,” Svetlana says. “He wears people down. He makes them small. This is what he did to Ilya’s mama, and he now he does this to Ilya. Ilya can survive it because he is a world away. He will not survive it if Grigori is the only voice in his head all the time.”
--
Or: Grigori Rozanov never develops Alzheimer's. Even from across the globe, he maintains influence over Ilya, his career, and, unknowingly, his relationship.
Being told that they can't come out makes Shane speed-run being ready to do just that and tell the world that he loves Ilya Rozanov.
