Stranded

by ItstheBookworm

A mission gone wrong results in the Team getting separated on an island in the middle of nowhere. With no way of communicating with each other or the League, they need to find a way to survive. Not all of them escaped unscathed either. There is no way out, no way to return home, and no way to know if they'll all survive. Oh, and no one remembers exactly what happened either.

Tails of the Sailor

by DeiliaMedlini

There were tales told on the seas by fishermen and pirates, tales of mythical Zora and their half-Hylian children: mermaids. Many claimed to see a Zora, but few claimed to see mermaids, for they were so rare, they were legend. But when Link is saved by something with a tail, he finds himself more drawn to the sea than ever.

The Saviour

by ElizaStyx

Jensen is awfully rich and awfully lonely. Being a boss of one of the biggest companies in the city doesn't help creating any relationships at work, his family is long gone, and the true love thing doesn't really seem to apply to him. That's why he ends up wandering through the city on Christmas Eve, considering whether he should get drunk at home or in a bar, while some kind of sixth sense leads him straight to the Russian Embassy where a drama much more real and much more serious than his personal problems is happening. No one could be so heartless to compare a simple loneliness to the homelessness and true abandonment...

Yuri!!! on Ice (Anime)

Polyglot Pairing

by Zetal (Rodinia)

Yuri enjoys learning languages as long as he doesn't have to sit in some stuffy useless class for it. The problem with signing up for language exchange servers is that he's a bit famous and doesn't want to be matched with an Angel who spends the whole time squeeing at him and not teaching him anything. Phichit provides a workaround, and Yuri is ready to test it out.
