Summary
"May I pass?”
“I will not stop you,” says the Keeper, but their voice rings like a warning, and Frieren waits patiently. The Keeper stares with their many eyes. “...But,” they finally say, “you will have to swim. Every second in the river will sap a decade from your lifespan. Beyond that, every step you take will bring the weight of mortality, and every breath will be poison in your mortal lungs. Past this bank is not made for the living.”
“I understand,” Frieren says. “But I am an elf, and a decade is nothing.”
///For Himmel, Frieren traverses beyond the bounds of life itself.

Summary
Powder knows this Ekko isn't her Ekko, she's known almost immediately.
or
“You’re pretty cool.” He says, and he sounds melancholy.
“Did you think I wouldn’t be?” She cocks an eyebrow in faux offense. He laughs again but this time it’s heavy, fondness, longing… something sad. (why is it always something sad).
“No, Powder I always… I always thought you were cool.”
“Flatterer.” She flicks an eraser off the table, suddenly finding it a bit hard to look at him. She and Ekko were close (her Ekko, she doesn’t know about this Ekko) since they were kids, nobody had been surprised that she and Ekko had ended up together. Ekko, her Ekko had ended up saying something similar in a roundabout way; that he’d liked her since they were small.

Summary
“Just when I thought I’d seen the depravity of your kind at its fullest. Stealing a poor dog’s ball?” Shadowheart makes a grab for the ball; Lae’zel tosses it to her other hand, grimacing at the sheen of drool it leaves behind. “For what purpose? Just to ruin the day of a being actually capable of feeling joy?”
“By the hells, Shadowheart, she’s taking the thing for a bloody walk,” Wyll says from his tent.
“A walk,” Shadowheart repeats, crossing her arms. “Why?”
“I assume the animals of this world require some amount of exercise if they’re not to collapse under the weight of their own atrophying muscles,” Lae’zel says. “But you wouldn’t know, would you? Do the disciples of Shar pre-kill their pets so they can skip right to the loss?”
-------------------
Lae'zel starts to take Scratch out for daily walks. Shadowheart's determined to figure out why.

Summary
The door swings open just as Shadowheart slams her fist forward to knock again; the apartment’s occupant, a githyanki woman in workout gear, catches Shadowheart’s wrist to avoid being decked in the face. “Whatever you aim to sell me,” the githyanki says testily, “I hold no interest, and I dearly hope whatever two-bit company you shill for files for bankruptcy.”
“Are you being murdered?” Shadowheart says, yanking her wrist free. “Or possibly doing the murdering?”
The githyanki cocks her head. Each of her long ears sports a line of piercings; the little hoops clink together. “Hm. A unique sales strategy. I will listen to your pitch if you speak quickly.”
-------------
Modern AU; Shadowheart moves into a new apartment, and the githyanki next door is infuriatingly loud.

Summary
After a particularly perilous fight that leaves Shadowheart far too close to death for comfort, she comes to a decision.
An idiotic, unthinkably painful decision, but a path forward, nonetheless.
She needs to become better at physical combat, fast.
And, fortunately or unfortunately, she has recently made a tentative 'truce' with an obnoxious yet admittedly adept Gith Warrior who for some ungodly reason seems to always erect her tent right across from her own.
Well. Let's see if Githyanki can be trusted on their word. Or, even better...coerced into a mutually beneficial arrangement. She's certain there's something she could offer the Gith. Twist to her advantage. If this could also make Lae'zel more bearable, all the better for her.
Lady of Sorrows guide her. How badly could this go?

15 Aug 2016

Summary
Soon after the conclusion of the Ishvalan Civil War, Captain Maes Hughes receives a phone call in the middle of the night. The message is short, concise... and perhaps the most terrifying thing Hughes has ever heard.
Hawkeye's apartment. Now. Come alone. Someone has been hurt.
A promise was once made amidst the sands of a distant desert land: oaths will be upheld, and secrets will be scorched away. The sinful had waited too long; Roy Mustang was indebted to his promise, and Riza Hawkeye had come to collect.
Shut the door; it's starting to rain.

He hates being reduced to the role of civilian – a convalescing civilian, even more. He hates the red tape that surrounds his recovery; hates that Riza still hasn’t come out of her coma like the doctors said she would.
The aftermath of the Promised Day isn’t pleasant for anybody involved.

Summary
“There’s a law against fraternization between officers, Havoc. Are you trying to lose your job?”
Bizarrely, Havoc somehow looks even more befuddled than before.
“Is this some sort of joke? That got scrapped when Grumman revised rules of conduct.”
“When Grumman did what?”
“Sir, it just happened two weeks ago. It went past your desk, for God’s sake. Where have you been?”
(In which nobody told Roy Mustang that Hawkeye was fair game.)

How Not to Suffer a Psychotic Break at Your Sister's Wedding to Your Archnemesis by spectators
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
21 Sep 2022
Tags
Summary
Jinx uses her free hand to grab the flask out of the hand Ekko's gripping and takes a satisfying gulp. A noise of disapproval comes from Ekko as liquor burns her throat, and Jinx bats her eyes innocently.
"I'll talk to Talis. Fine. But on one condition: you have to fuck me."
And just like that, Ekko's face is "impassive" once more. Jinx considered how brash and stupid her request was. Considered. But she needs something to brag about to Lux, who regarded her with shiny puppy-dog eyes when she nonchalantly mentioned she'd been celibate for around eleven months. Like they were mutually bitchless or something. Ugh.
Then a smile pulls at Ekko's lips, the barest of chuckles emanating from his mouth before he looks at her appraisingly. "You know, for someone so unpredictable, you're plenty predictable."
Jinx's sister's wedding is probably the worst major event of her life in recent memory, but at least she'll always have bourbon. And Ekko, who you can always count on to make things worse. If only he weren't so sexy while doing it.

“Sure, Princess, let’s put the war aside. Who knows? Maybe this will spawn a beautiful friendship. We can hold hands and sing songs around the campfire, talk about our crushes, maybe even use the buddy system––“
Edelgard groaned. “You’re going to make me regret this, aren’t you?”
“Yep,” said Claude gleefully. He stood and wiped the dirt off his pants. He extended a hand toward her. “Where to now, bestie?”
“Never,” Edelgard’s voice was a dangerous monotone, “call me that again.”
