    Summary

    In a world of kingdoms, sorcery and ancient gods, the Pirate King's legend reigns supreme over them all. Harumasa was the most wanted man on the waters this side of the milky way, and yet everyone who hunted him ended up chasing a ghost's shadow.

    Seth Lowell, a seasoned admiral of New Eridu's Imperial Navy, despises everything he represents. For three years, he's chased the legend across the open sea. Now, he has received a direct order from King Mayflower.

    "Bring me his head."

    And Seth will not fail. For his sword was loyal to the crown.

    Long live the king.

    or: An adventure epic about the weight of leadership, loyalty and justice.

    Summary

    He'd been too comfortable. Qifrey almost laughed when it hit him: this entire predicament was supposed to be anything but reassuring, but somehow, the gentle pass of time had withered away the sharp edges of his suffering. Just like the tides would smooth over the rocks of the shore again and again until they became nothing but sand, he'd grown to expect the pain, until it wasn't as excruciating anymore. It was almost like having a reason for it was enough to soften the blow.

    And it did. Stars, it did.

    (Or, the Silverwood tree is growing again, but this time it won't go away. Luckily, Qifrey's family has no intention of ever letting him go.)

    Summary

    Dazai Osamu is in love with Nakahara Chuuya.

    However, desire is not the problem.

    It is everything else.

    In another life, they might have been honest.

    In this one, they are very good at lying in the same direction.

    -- OR ---

    1870s-80, Meiji era. Dazai is a painter and Chuuya is a poet. Right person, wrong time.

    Summary

    Qifrey is free of The Curse™, but it leaves him with low vision. He adapts with a little help and some nifty new contraptions from his smart and awesome apprentices. He also finally gets to have good things, like way too much wine and the best friend he's longed after for ages.

    Or: I write out my ideal post-canon for my beloved family. I am un-dooming them from the narrative because I'm too impatient for Shirahama to do so herself in 10 years. Characterization/plot leans sweeter and less tragic. I like my imaginative whimsy and queer joy!

    Anime-onlys read at your own risk.
