Summary
“You,” Ed starts to interrupt him, then stops, clearing his throat. His voice is almost— gritting, cracking in the middle. When he starts again, he’s stronger, but still— shaky. “You made me this? I mean— You made this? For me?”
Stede’s not entirely sure what he means by that, but he has that little bubbling sensation he always gets when Ed is making him happy. It’s this simmering, glowing joy that always rises inside him, like it’s going to blow him up. He’s already smiling.
“I did,” Stede says. Ed sits up properly beside him, and Stede nudges his shoulder, jostles him a bit. “I thought you could use something a little bit soft. Besides me, you know.”
He’s expecting Ed to tease him in response, but instead, he doesn’t speak. He just keeps staring down at the blanket, clutched between his fingers.
or: five times stede did things for ed, and one time ed did something for stede.- Language:

Reprise by Elfpen
Fandom Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars Original Trilogy, Star Wars Prequel Trilogy
17 Jan 2025
Summary
I began writing Reprise in November 2015, after having a hankering for a good time travel AU and then being unable to find one that fit my niche craving. I wrote chapters 1 through 3 as a casual experiment, a kind of character study of Ben Kenobi.
Half a million words and nearly a decade later, here we are.
The series consists of four main parts:
Reprise I
Reprise II
Reprise III
Reprise IV
Reprise V (COMING SOON)As well as a few supplementary entries:
The Visionary (fanart)
The Pragmatist (fanart)
Still Here (oneshot, set between Reprise III and Reprise IV but has spoilers for Reprise IV)Have fun reading!

Summary
Phil Coulson has a problem.
Since his wife died, he’s lived on a remote colony world, raising his children and recovering from the wound that nearly killed him. Now, his old commander needs him back on the job; he's heard troubling rumors of an invasion force that could threaten every world in the Galactic Alliance. But Phil’s two daughters have no other family; what would happen to them if Phil died too? They need another parent, so Phil contacts Earth’s best marriage brokers.
Clint Barton has a problem.
Since he escaped from his ne’er-do-well brother Barney and the criminal gang that tried to force him to join, he’s been living under the protection of Natasha Romanoff, the Red Room’s most valued agent. But Barney has caught wind of him again, and even the Black Widow can’t protect him from the powerful crime syndicate that is after him now. Clint needs a place to lie low, somewhere so far away from Earth that his enemies can’t find him. So Natasha suggests that he consider the benefits of an arranged marriage on a faraway planet.
It seems like a mutually beneficial arrangement. But can two independent men move past their secrets and build a real life together?

Summary
When Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell disappear, others are left to deal with the consequences of the return of magic to England: this side of the rain, Childermass and Segundus must work together for the greater good, but their paths have crossed many times over the years and feelings have been crushed in the process.
A tale of the man who asked The Question and set the revival of English magic in motion, and of the man who has always seemed to know where to look for answers - except to his own heart’s desires.
