Summary
He is not her son. She has no right to pretend he is. He is a prince, and she is a lowly nursemaid. She has no right to call herself his mother; no right to keep his history secret from him; no right to choose for him an ordinary, human life when his destiny is to be so much more.
No right – and she does it anyway.
(She had a story. She had a heart. She liked pink lemonade).

Summary
Maybe card games and magic can't solve everything. Maybe, even with the Puzzle gone, there are still pieces left to pick up.
The Spirit was cruel, vindictive, and selfish, but Ryou still misses the voice that kept him company.
Malik was definitely a worse person before Battle City, but life was easier.
Find someone whose empty spaces fit your broken bones. Love isn't a cure, but it certainly doesn't hurt.

Summary
The house outside of town is haunted - but Malik is too, so nothing he finds in there could be much of a threat. Not even the pretty ghost boy.
Or, the non-supernatural version: Bakura Ryou is a recluse, and Malik Ishtar is a petty criminal with a crush.

Ryou's used to cold, lonely birthdays. This isn't one of them.

Summary
Love died. Love returned.
It wasn’t until after Romeo died that Geppetto’s puppet first heard his true voice — as clearly as a recording could depict, anyway. It was like listening to a record but not as crisp. Sometimes he liked to imagine that the music spoke to him as the disks spun upon the gramophone: Fascination turned to love.
100 words of “they should have kissed/hugged.”

Once You’d Gone, There Was Never an Honest Word by puppetmilk

Summary
With Romeo’s sacrifice, a father thinks son will rise.
Who still dresses like the world hasn’t ended? Who isn’t bloodied and blue and half-ossified? It’s a strange sight: the proof that life has endured beyond the charity house’s walls. Everyone within might have died, but the world outside will go on. The sun will rise, time will trudge on, and Romeo won’t even be a memory. No one remains who remembers him.

If there’s one thing P has discovered he likes even more than music, it's dancing.

Summary
They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness.
But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.

Summary
Everything cycles back around into powers, his new powers. Powers that, by the feel of it, Billy’s really only scratched the surface of. But powers that he thinks could really do some actual good, on the right team. Assuming he doesn’t blow anything up with his mind by then.
