You never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs) by OrphicMeliora
Fandoms: 恋与深空 | Love and Deepspace (Video Game)
14 Jan 2026

Summary
“Well,” he said, voice low, unreadable, almost teasing. “This is a surprise.”
You swallowed the knot in your throat and turned around, not because you wanted to face him—but because the weight of his presence demanded it.
“Not really,” you tried to sound breezy. Light. Detached. “I was just dropping something off—”
Click.
The sound of the lock sliding into place was too deliberate. Too calm.
Zayne shrugged off his lab coat. The stark white fabric fell in slow motion over the back of the chair, and then he rolled his shoulders—tight, tired, tense. You watched his fingers unbutton his cuffs, rolling up his sleeves slowly, with practiced ease.
Curtains drawn. Room dimming. Silence folding over itself.
“I sincerely hope,” he murmured as he walked toward you, past you, pulling each curtain shut until the room felt private, secretive—dangerous, “it’s not another envelope.”
OR
An arranged marriage built on silence unravels into a love loud enough to echo—where a repressed heart finally claims what was always his.

Summary
Footfalls in the snow melt the quickest-- give rise to newborn greens and fragile stems betwisting through brittle ice as they reach for the warmth of a promised spring. Eyes of blue coated in ice are no different. In time, their frost will wane; give way to the heat of the sun who beckons with the grace and kindness of everything right in the world.
Her arms are strong, yet delicate. Brilliant light cascading, blinding through summer's canopy to dazzle the world in hues and colors beauty bright he only believed existed in nature and the Fade-- he sees her.
His arms are strong, yet gentle. Feather-light touches, kindness unending. Drowning within, pebbles shift to the bottom of a basin, bubbles drifting to float aloft the waves, he is the adventure she's sought forever-- she sees him.
A home built between, a breath shared throughout. Again and again and again. To burn, to fall to ash-- and meld together, again. Again.Bookmarked by BloodThreadShears

Summary
In times of college-related stress and frustrations, you think it's a little odd when you overhear how some people find resonance in sounds. No music, just any random sounds whipped out by random strangers on the internet. It almost sounds funny.
Until it's not so funny anymore.
OR
Under the stress that is college, your desperate search for stress-relief aid takes a surprising turn when you stumble upon Starrysound's ASMR channel. Except, this is no ordinairy ASMR, and this is definitely no ordinairy ASMR creator.

Summary
Sienna giggled, feeling some of her exhaustion melt away. "Well, since you're so invested in my well-being, want to hear my exciting plans for relaxation after tomorrow's training and briefing?"
"Do tell," Sylus replied, his interest evident.
"Hmm," Sienna hummed, tapping her chin thoughtfully. "Well, first things first, I'm going to indulge in a long, hot shower. Let the water wash away all this stress and tension."
"Mmmm," Sylus murmured appreciatively. "I can picture that quite vividly."
Sienna felt her face grow warmer. "Behave yourself," she chided playfully. "After that, I'm treating myself to some seriously decadent takeout. No cooking, no dishes, just pure indulgence."

Summary
proantagonist's story performed aloud.
Fills in the missing scenes between Episodes 7-12, then follows Victor and Yuuri beyond the Grand Prix Final.
Yuuri was aware that at some point—a moment in time he couldn’t quite place—Victor had become his boyfriend.
There wasn’t a single instant when it happened. It was a slow awareness, as if Victor had silently been asking the question for months now, and Yuuri had been giving him the answer a little more with each passing day.

Summary
Essek doesn’t date, and for good reason. It’s exhausting, the dance around feelings and pleasure, made worse by the shadow of his ill health. He’s perfectly content with the company of his Guides, their platonic exchange of intimacies fully serviceable. He doesn’t need anyone else.
Caleb Widogast is the Empire human making a valiant attempt towards involving himself in Rosohna’s kink scene. He shouldn’t be as charming as he is but Essek finds himself drawn to Caleb, caught in his gravity well, pulled past the event horizon against his will. He doesn’t quite mind, especially when Essek connects Caleb Widogast to Bren Ermendrud, the researcher on loan from Soltryce studying time travel under Essek’s purview here in the Marble Tomes.
Don’t we all have mistakes we wish to correct?
Essek has made many and, caught up in a whirlwind romance with a Dom perfect in all the ways he didn’t know he wanted, he makes many more.

Summary
A little canon-divergence universe based around my fic, Among Other Things. Most of the fics can be read as standalone, but it may help to read Among Other Things first. For the most part these are Wrightworth/Narumitsu, but there's a little bit of Klapollo and other ships thrown in for good measure.

Astarion's Nice, Simple Plan That Fell Apart by UsuallyDyingInside
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)
12 Apr 2024
Tags
Summary
Astarion had a plan. A nice, simple plan: seduce Tav, sleep with her, manipulate her feelings so she'd never turn on him.
All she had to do was fall for it.
And all he had to do was not fall for her.Which is where his nice, simple plan fell apart.

Exploring Astarion's POV throughout the game while romancing Dark Urge/Tav. Canon is followed in most cases, including with lines of dialogue from the game, but Act 2 and 3 break off from canon a few times in fun ways.Content warnings are listed ahead of the more intense chapters. Overall this fic (like the game) explores what healing from abuse looks like and has a lot of references to those themes.

Summary
Imprisoned for crimes he doesn’t remember committing, Elion grows weary of battling with his inner demons in the confines of his cell. In search of redemption, he finds himself within the prison’s chapel, where a mysterious chaplain piques a peculiar interest in him. Little does he know, he's about to get much more than he bargained for.
Father Ancunín stops me as I try to walk past him and I glare at the hand that's so gently yet firmly placed on my shoulder. Not because its presence is unwelcome, but because my own nature is untrustworthy. I lift my gaze from his hand to his eyes, and I can't stop the thought of how easily I could press my lips against his.
I swallow dryly.
"Come see me again in three days, after sunset." His voice has lowered to a sultry low tone, slightly above a whisper. "Alone."

Summary
After 200 years of being forced to seduce innocents to bring to his master, Cazador, Astarion was sure he'd never love again, until he met Valena. Determined to keep himself safe, he set out to make her fall in love with him, all while keeping his own emotions distant, of course. When the overly chatty sorcerer, Gale, begins to show interest the stunning, red-haired sorcerer, however, he can't help but feel a tug of jealousy that makes him wonder if his feelings have gone beyond self preservation. Can he open his heart to feelings he swore he'd never allow himself to feel again? And most importantly, is he worthy of Valena's love?
If you love Astarion's in-game romance and wish you could have even more, THIS is the story for you. It will roughly follow the events of the game, but it will dig much deeper into Astarion and Tav's minds, how and when they started catching feelings with way more focus on their romantic scenes. It's going to be a slow burn with LOTS of angst, fluff, smut, and all the warm fuzzies.

He turns his gaze back on her, his expression loaded yet inscrutable. “You do it so well,” he shakes his head. “Acting like you really care.”
The words hit her, sudden and stinging. “You don’t think I do?”
He looks at her, the way one might look at an indecipherable puzzle. She supposes that in a way, that’s what she is to him. “Honestly, I don’t really know what to think anymore.”
(Or: Leon and Ada, falling apart and growing back together.)

Summary
She had made it a ritual to focus her mind on the tasks at hand as soon as she woke up every morning. It meant that by the time her advisors assailed her with the seemingly endless list of things the Inquisition had to accomplish, she was prepared with some ideas of her own. It also meant she gave herself no time to dwell on the silence that enveloped her every night. Once all of Skyhold had gone to bed and her friends had all found their way home, once the Inquisitor’s duties were done for the day, all that remained was a small, rootless elf, away from her clan and their woods, surrounded by ancient walls and foreign people.
