    Summary

    Sometimes, Aragorn thinks he can see Boromir out of the corner of his eye. It has been a year and a half. He ought to have stopped this after the first six months. He ought never to have seen him in the first place. Because what is there to see?

     

    Aragorn and Boromir - as memories and ghosts, sometimes these are one and the same, sometimes they're not. Or, as Anne Carson has it in Nox: "I fall, you fall, I have fallen, fell, a neutral verb, whence casual and casually."

    Summary

    After falling from the tree didn't do the trick, Evan begins to seek out another solution. A partner. Peer pressure to get the job done. He spends several weeks trolling a website with a section called Suicide Partners after breaking his arm. He finds a potential match in someone else who is looking to make sure they actually pull the trigger this time (metaphorically speaking).

    Three guesses whose message Evan responds to.

    It's Connor's, of course.

    Inspired by My Heart and Other Black Holes

    Summary

    For Ruby, their arrangement is an escape from dire family matters and the monotony of being untouchable. For Otis, their arrangement is a distraction from a hurt he still hasn't properly dealt with and is desperate to ignore. Casual isn't complicated until they complicate it.

    A Season 3 Fix-It.

    Summary

    Some days, years after the fact, Peter wonders if perhaps his life really started when Aslan looked at the four of them and said, You have done enough. Your home is here, if you wish it to be so.

    Summary

    A work exploring the events that took place before the calamity- detailing Link's chaotic ascendance into the royal guard, his first meetings with each of the champions, Zelda, and the people who raised him. [Complete!]
     

    "Link tossed the sword down. It stayed upright, embedded into the dirt and mud. He wanted to tell her just how desperately he’d wanted to reject it and put it back into its pedestal. The way he ran and lied, and was still lying. King Rhoam was the one who insisted the truth be buried, but Link didn’t utter a word of protest. He may have come clean, but he had no intention of coming clean to all of Hyrule.
     
    He felt he didn’t owe Hyrule anything.

    But the question remained, just how much did he owe Zelda?"
