Summary
When Maelle brings Gustave back, there is a look in his eyes. Mutable and poised. Verso thinks he understands, but he underestimates it. And when he is lured into a darkened alleyway outside the central square, he expects anything but a gun to his head.
—
Verso discovers that Gustave was painted with some of Julie's memories, and he is forced to confront every decision he has ever made in the name of the Dessendre family.
On the cusp of summer, an expedition begins.
An epilogue to Maelle's ending.

Summary
Verso Dessendre needs a fake boyfriend for his family's annual Christmas trip to the Alps.
Gustave Rénier—his childhood crush and the man he hasn't seen in ten years—needs a reason to say yes to something reckless for once in his carefully organized life.
What starts as a week of pretense in a snow-covered chalet becomes something neither of them expected: late-night conversations, stolen touches, and the slow realization that some things were never fake to begin with.
Seven days. One bed. Two people who've been wanting each other for far too long.
Sometimes the best love stories start with a lie.

Summary
”Gustave lights a lamp in the kitchen, rolls up his sleeves and starts making dinner.
He does it, step by step, follows the old family recipe even though he’s exhausted to the very bone-marrow, even though his muscles are sore and the lethargy drags him towards the floor boards like a lead weight.”
In which Gustave makes food, Verso keeps showing up and they slowly start healing together.
Or; five times Gustave cooks something and one time it's Verso's turn.

Summary
Verso's smile widened, and Gustave knew with crystal clarity that the universe had a sick sense of humor. His Friday night blues had just become his Monday morning colleague.
"We've met," Verso said easily, still watching Gustave with those piercing eyes. "Haven't we, Gustave?"
The use of his full name was deliberate. Not a question, not a tease. A claim. It landed in Gustave’s gut like a stone, heavy and cold, followed by the slow bloom of heat at his throat where the bruises still ached.
He was so, so fucked.
Or: they say when you love a character so much you'd inevitably write them taking it up the ass

Summary
“I want to die.”
That gets his attention — Gustave’s eyes fly wide open, and he takes a step back. Like Verso is a lunatic who is better to be avoided. “I beg your pardon?”
“I want to die,” Verso repeats. “And I can’t do it on my own. You’re one of the smartest men in Lumière, you’re good with chroma. I need your help.”
Or: Verso is trying to find a way out. Gustave helps.

Summary
A primal was summoned with an immense amount of chroma and could temper anyone close by. It was like a magical parasite, worming its way into one’s mind until anyone would turn into its thrall, serving it unapologetically. He had read recovered letters of how friends had turned against friends, parents had killed their children, and throats had been cut by their own bodies.
The worst part was that they couldn’t even leave the primal alone.
Lumière was running out of supplies and they had to make the continent livable.
And that just so included slaying an immortal primal that could temper them if they dared to get too close.
God, Gustave needed a drink.

Summary
The girl’s shoulders hunch again. An expression is battling on her face. Guilt again, and fear, and shame. And then faintly, in the soft turn of her cheek, commiseration. She watches Gustave for a long, sad moment, and then turns to a new page in the notepad. She starts writing something, and then stops, glancing furtively at Gustave before scribbling it out. On a new line she instead writes in big bold letters:
Maelle.
OR
Gustave is the local mechanic of Lumiere, an idyllic coastal village far away from the chaos and conflict of Paris. Struggling with his recent injury and the loss of a good friend, he's not quite prepared when a family moves into the abandoned Manor on the edge of town.
He's definitely not prepared for their children.

Summary
The first time it happens, it's a complete accident. The times after that, well... not so much.
When the line between chance and choice begins to blur, Gustave must decide if he trusts Verso enough to put his life — and his heart — in his hands.
Again, and again, and again.
Or: Five times Verso takes Gustave's hand to protect him, from the world as well as from himself — and one time Gustave returns the favor.

Summary
I've read a fic, where Iruka and Anko were in one team. As a result I can't stop thinking that Iruka was Orochimaru's student. WOW
WowIt's not actually a story. It's just random ideas and funny (and fluffy) situations around Iruka, Orochimaru, Kakashi and other Naruto characters.

Summary
The group made their way over to the two Hylians, where the individual they had rushed to save was conversing with the newcomer. The newcomer was heavily scarred on his left side, and from the bow on his back, he was the archer who had brought down many of the monsters.
“Hello,” Time said, as he nodded to them. “Could you point us toward Castle Town?”
The scarred man blinked. “Nanda?”
…
The Heroes of Courage are spread across ages. Hundreds to thousands of years between them. It should come as no surprise that they are having some trouble communicating. But when they’re dropped in a world of alien technology and a language wholly unfamiliar, they really wish Hylia had thought ahead.
Or, the gang-meets-wild fic in which there is an appropriate amount of linguistic drift between Links, Hylia does not provide Google Translate, and Wild is a linguaphile among other things.

In Which Wild Avoids Meeting the Gang by CuteButAlsoStabby
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
23 Nov 2021

Summary
"From what I saw, it looked like a teenager – maybe sixteen or seventeen? Blonde hair, blue tunic. Had a sword and a bow. I tried to approach, but uhh… long story short, bad timing on my part, he saw something weird and I think I might have spooked him. He pulled out his bow before I could even blink. I think it was a warning shot? Hard to say. I tried to calm him down, tried to talk with him, and that’s about the time he threw the bananas and ran off."
Basically a "gang meets Wild" fic where Wild is a skittish, traumatised, low self-esteem loner who is very stealthy, very fast, not particularly honest and also capable of teleporting. Shenanigans ensue. Features a mix of humour, fluff, hurt/comfort, angst and action, with some of that tasty found family stuff. Things work out eventually, but expect emotional and physical owies along the way. Major themes are in the tags, with some additional CWs listed in the chapter notes - see Chapter 1 for a consolidated list.
Characters and basic premise are from the Legend of Zelda series and the Linked Universe AU, plus some common headcanons from AO3. Not LU canon-compliant. Please DO NOT repost any of my fics.
