let's play a game

by Aria_Cinabun

Tommy was once a slave. That's gone now - shoved in his past with the memories of blood and gore and death. He wants to forget who he was; what he has to do to survive.Of course, the Elementalists will always come back to haunt him. They aren't the ones who killed his mother, but they're close enough.And now he and his brother have been dragged into the mess, as Elementalists with their own, separate covens, to find the Pit - the place where he'd lived and killed and hurt for the first twelve years of his life.His coven can't know. Can't know who he really is, what he can really do. Can't know anything about his past.He doesn't want a coven full of Elementalists who don't trust him; one of whom he's pretty sure despises him. He doesn't want that life. He wants the life of a pickpocket, on the streets, because nobody questions street kids, and nobody comes asking about his past and pushes him to tell his secrets that he holds closest inside.Tubbo tries to tell him to trust people.But trust is how you die.

Naughty and Nice

by Icka M Chif (mischif)

The problem with being the Guardian of Wonder was that Wonder was not Awe. That feeling of surprise and admiration was certainly part of Wonder, but so was the unstoppable desire to know things. To learn, to explore, to understand. North did not understand. And that unrest, that constant wondering kept him awake this night. If Jack was the only one Manny had brought back and abandoned.

Living the Crash

by Lysical

Tim might be back in Gotham, but a broken leg means Red Robin will be sidelined for quite some time. Just catching up on everything that happened while he was captive would have been hard enough, but now confined to his in-progress apartment with only his thoughts and too much time, he can't shake the feeling he's still being left behind.

I'm Asking You Out

by corkinavoid

When there's something green and malicious destroying the city of Metropolis, who you're gonna call? That's right, the Ghost King. Nobody likes this idea, but between the option of surrendering to the ghostly plant monster and negotiating a deal with a being of immeasurable power, Batman chooses wisely. However, he doesn't get to do actual negotiations. Turns out the Ghost King really likes his kids for some reason. A fic where JL summons the Ghost King, Jason sasses said King into helping, and Tim gets a chance of a lifetime.

The Hobbit - All Media Types+2

Fiercer than Fire

by InkFire_Scribe

The Quest of Erebor as it might have been. Billa Baggins is not your average burglar- or, perhaps, a burglar at all. That remains to be seen. Thorin resents this little female's habit of gaining a foothold wherever she lands. Even in his heart. A retelling/reinvention of A Hobbit's Tale, beginning with Thorin's arrival at Bag End. Through the Reclaiming of Erebor, and beyond! WARNING: Ridiculous length, extreme drama, and non-canon moments galore. Written and edited by the Ladies Juno and Loki.
