Summary
"You don't talk about Abigail in this much." Benoit Blanc held up Jud's written story. "But she's the first one you look at in a room and you're the first one she moved towards."
"Abby has nothing to do with this. She's a- She's been through a lot, with her father and the Monsignor." Jud reasoned. "I don't wanna drag her into anything else."
The Detective laughed at him. "From where I'm sitting, she's in it either way."IN WHICH, after her father's death, Abigail Calder remains tethered to a church that taught her obedience as love and suffering as devotion. Trapped between grief and expectation, she struggles to separate her faith from the man who shaped it, and from the Monsignor determined to keep her small.
The arrival of Father Jud, a priest with a violent past and an unexpected gentleness, unsettles everything. Where the church demands endurance, Jud offers breath. Where others speak in certainty, he listens. What begins as guidance becomes a quiet act of rebellion: learning to stand, to feel, and to believe that faith does not require disappearance.Bookmarked by ToBeTrue

Summary
In a world obsessed with killing and dying, Seiko is mostly concerned with chasing off her boredom. The Academy wasn’t exactly intellectually stimulating, but dying in the second shinobi war sounded like a long walk off a short pier. Everyone is always so stressed about avoiding attention, or min-maxing skills in situations like this.
Seiko is of the opinion that those people need to chill the hell out. Maybe play a little shogi. Death comes for them all anyways. Better to enjoy this all while it lasts.
(genius self insert stumbles into disrupting a timeline with the intentionality of an elephant trampling a very fancy tea shop.)

Summary
Before the age of six, Ōno Umeko committed a murder—she killed the real Umeko.
“I’m disappointed, Umeko.” She opened her eyes and he took a sip of his sake. “You have such a narrow mind still, after all these years.”
It wasn’t what she expected. Umeko was expecting to be disciplined for not being good enough, but being narrow-minded? She didn’t understand. “Grandfather?”
On steady legs, despite the bandages wrapping him, he stood to his full height. “Did you think I had no influence on the Academy at all? You forget yourself.”
Umeko swallowed his disappointment and it tasted like copper. “I’m sorry, Grandfather.”
He looked down on her at her position on the ground, and she felt so lowly. Even more pathetic and sad than when she whispered empty compliments to Ino, when Shikamaru rejected her.
Her grandfather started walking away, and said into the quiet of the big lonely house, “I gave you your tools. Now use them.”

Summary
Bellflowers symbolize unchanging love, honesty, or eternal bond. Funny my name can be translated to bellflower. When I lie to cover my knowledge. When I have lost bonds both old and new. I wonder what purpose does my life serve being here now, but, I have to keep going. Hoping I make a difference.
Also a story about a woman being reborn into the Naruto world as an Uzumaki, before the original story started, before alot of things happened and trying to survive in that world and maybe change it.

Summary
During her travels, Hornet finds a mysterious shackle meant to bind malfunctioning automatons for future disassembly. Such a discovery would be insignificant — except more and more similar shackles keep appearing around the choral chambers, as if hunting a certain prey.
She's not the only one who has noticed. The Second Sentinel of Pharloom remembers such shackles from ages ago — and if their suspicion is correct, it is not just themselves who is in danger from an old hunter's obsession.
It will take both of their combined strength to combat this unseen foe…
(…and if that draws them closer together, well. That's just a bonus.)

Summary
The smallfolk had a saying: ‘Royce brides meet a cold end when they take a dragonlord to wed.’
Alyssa believed House Royce was happily rid of Targaryens after Jeyne Arryn sent Rhea's overgrown cave worm of a husband skulking from the Eyrie, denying his claim to Runestone. In the years following her cousin's passing, Alyssa's troubles numbered few around the lovely old heap of stone called home...until a letter arrived.
The rest, as the maesters would one day write, is history.
