Summary
The day Frank Columbo met Eugenio Franchitti was a day blessed by God: God and all the real angels and saints, specifically Adjutor, Philip Neri, and Barbara. The war was going full swing; on the beach there were the leftovers, the women and boys and girls, and the oldest Franchitti kids who hadn’t shipped overseas, Geno and Cecilia, first cousins. Frank hadn’t noticed ’em at first, either of ’em, the tall and lanky boy and girl with skin like gold and eyelashes like fringed velvet burlesque fans, physical traits the magazines said you could shell out for but the Franchitti kids had ’em in spades all natural; but once he had he couldn’t stop noticin'.
*
The story of how Columbo and Mrs. Columbo came to be.

Summary
The Negotiator has a problem. The rest of these peons don't seem to want to recognize her claims to royalty. They scoff and scorn her whenever she tells them of her origin, ousted from the Summer Court. Certainly, they tolerate her, when they need her power, or when they need her assistance. But none understand her, nor do they respect her.
Finally, she comes across a fellow royal. A woman calling herself 'Queen', an equal, though her throne is wax and papier mâché, and her robes are naught but tattered rags. Finally she has a peer...
And the woman scorns her.
Unbelievable.
Absolutely unbelievable.

Summary
Being the forgotten son of the disgraced head of a criminal organization is bad enough, but when you add a rapidly-unraveling repressed girlhood and inexplicable feelings for some loser from New Bark Town to the mix, it all sums up to a disaster waiting to happen. Silver just wants a win, but he'll... she'll need to learn a thing or two... or a hundred... to get it.

Summary
“To what do I owe the pleasure of hosting The Gideon Jura?” she said, not bothering to tramp down her sarcasm. “Captain of the Gatewatch, representative of the little folk, I’m sure there’s some other title I’m missing just oozing with self-importance.”
He frowned into his tea. “Jace said I should keep my eye on you. I assumed he meant you’re untrustworthy, but now I understand that it’s simply concern. You’re a potent ally.”
“Are you seriously sapping time from my precious day off to flatter me?”
“The Gatewatch doesn’t get days off,” he replied flatly.

See, I wanted to say it's probably the best zutara I've ever read, and I don't know if it's BETTER than *These Tides Do Turn*, but it's certainly up there.

Summary
“Maul is Sith,” Eeth said softly, “and a Sith that did not plan on killing his Master. A Sith that likely loved his Master… We have stripped him of an attachment. While we may now be able to properly give Maul closure, to begin getting him to recognize what happened to him was wrong…”
“It will nonetheless take time."
A slow-burn on Slavery, Freedom, and bringing Balance to the Force.

In Hoenn, there's one great constant: Everyone's obsessed with battling pokémon. It's practically a necessity to travel or lead an independent life.
But Autumn is 21, and she's never learned how. When her mother finally shoves her out of her house and onto her long-belated Pokémon Journey, things go wrong very quickly. Only the timely intervention of a woman Autumn barely knows saves her - and sets her on the path to independence. Can Autumn find a way to make a living without battling? Can she realize and act on her budding crush on her new mentor? Or will she stay a student and never a partner, forever lagging behind those trainers who started their Journeys when they were twelve years old?Bookmarked by lemonancy

“I felt what is most akin to a human concept of happiness. And later, gratefulness. And all of this-“
The skin of her face is completely smooth, her features youthful as the cracks from earlier appear completely healed. Her presence seems to glow, and Zelda feels overwhelmed with familiarity for a second.
“Not because he was a hero. But because he was kind.”

Summary
“You can’t be serious. Do you actually not know?” Rika takes one look at him and groans. “Arceus help me. Have you never searched yourself on the Internet?” Rika pauses and makes a face. “On second thought, don’t do that. I think it might traumatize you.”
“I don’t understand.” He really doesn’t. Why would people like him? He’s plain. Average. Unremarkable. He’s not entertaining like Iono or creative like Brassius or friendly like Rika. He can’t even pull off the mysterious, cool aura that Grusha has.
What does he have to offer?
Or: Larry, through the years.

Summary
The Web-Warriors was a band of spider people dedicated to protecting the Web of Life and Destiny, and helping alternate universes without a spider. After two wars they barely survived, one of their members — Gwen Stacy aka Ghost-Spider of Earth-65 — tried to focus on repairing her civilian life back home.
Now, the universe of Earth Bet has been revealed, and she’s asked to find the reason why it was hidden until now, and to find the elusive spider person that lives there. Gwen isn’t doing it alone. When new spider people join the Warriors, she’ll take under her wing another, younger Gwen. And their relationship will be more important to each other than they understand. -
