Summary
But he was struck by the urge to trace the shape of her murderous scowl in a way that was - uncomfortable. There was thinking about kissing your friend silly because she was obviously in desperate need of being kissed silly, and there was wanting to kiss your friend because you needed it.

There's a serious lack of Cinder/Thorne and this story more than makes up for it <33

Summary
Camelot is a far-off dream, a place which was made for men. They travel through the forest, hunting.
Merlin lays with the deer and they with him, and he cannot bear their suffering the way he once cared about the suffering of men, so he splinters arrows before they pierce flesh and leaves the rotting bodies of unlucky creatures on the hot stones that circle the men’s fires.
If they cannot be taught their place in the forest, then they will leave it at least unsettled.
Men fear decay and death.
Merlin fears neither anymore.
(Arthur banishes Merlin from Camelot, so Merlin goes to the forest and slowly loses himself to its magic. By the time Arthur learns what he's lost, it's too late to bring Merlin back by his own will.)

Summary
"Stiles has always measured his life in firsts.
It’s a yardstick, not necessarily a good one, but it’s managed to carefully balance itself between what Stiles has grown to need (with his shit attention span the way it is, he’s learned that he requires schedules and, okay, stimulants to help him focus, to help him remember) and what he is, deep down inside—a creature whose heart was a magpie, equal parts fascinated and possessive over the small, sparkling, interesting bits of life.
The first time Stiles meets Elijah Mikaelson—he doesn't realize it in the moment, what with all of the mayhem and being drenched in some asshole's blood—Stiles falls in love. He's really quite dumb that way."
An unexpected (and rather baffling) love story.

Bookmarker's Notes
“You know, I don’t even blame you. If I had a piece of that right in front of me, I’d ditch you in a heartbeat.”
“That hurts me, Martin. Deep inside.”
“Oh, I’m not the one that’s going to be deep in—”
And Stiles hung up the phone.
(There was a reason why Stiles was once deeply infatuated with Lydia Martin.)
(There was also a reason he wasn’t still pining after her.)
(These reasons are the same. She’s a stone-cold bitch.)

Summary
Regulus sat up, unaware of his surroundings, and his mind went to water. Not just water, but drowning—hands scratching his body and violating him, pulling him further until he had to take in the dirty fluid to his abused lungs.
So, finding Dorcas Meadowes staring at him with a hard glare from the opposite seat of the Hogwarts Express took him by surprise. One of the most powerful wizards in the Order sat in front of him, and all Regulus could think about was a major sense of déjà vu.
This had happened once before.

Regulus gets another chance at life <33
James Potter is super obvious and I live for it.
Marlene & Dorcas are good older sisters.-----
“What are we, then?” James asked, and his motives were becoming strikingly clear. “If we aren’t friends.”“I’ll leave that to your imagination,” Regulus replied, leaning back in his seat. James scoffed.
“Right, I’ll just imagine us as an old married couple—”
“Imagination!” Regulus emphasized. “Which means in your head, Potter!”
James laughed, and Regulus curled up a smile without realizing.

Summary
It starts with a small ‘sorry’ to an acquaintance. The path twists and turns into a whole sea of apologies.
OR, Percy finds out the children of Aphrodite are more observant than they get credit for.
