Need Him None

by 13letters

Fucking balls o' blood, never in his forsaken life has he ever seen a woman quite like that. Or, how Tormund sees Brienne and falls half in love, half to his knees in worship. She's not just a soldier or a lady fair, she's someone he could follow to the ends of the world or around Castle Black with her more or less aware of it.

A Simple

by larkscope

Elizabeth is the daughter of an earl, yet insists on being informally (or rather, incorrectly) addressed. This causes a bit of misunderstanding with Mr. Darcy.

pins and needles

by mutterandmumble

He’s got a reputation to uphold anyways; an uptight, rigid reputation that dictates the way that he interacts and functions and is such an integral part of him that he can’t let go of it anytime soon. He likes his safety nets. He likes his contingencies. He likes his privacy, and everything around this place right down to the walls seems to have ears, so he’ll stay tight-lipped up to and beyond the threat of death. He’s good at that. ——- In which Jon takes up embroidery and bumbles through life the best that he can.

My Son Has Fallen (Now Shatter)

by WardofWinters (QoLife)

Poseidon plays favorites, of course he does. He’d cursed Odysseus for harming one of his less favored children, and he would do so much worse for his most favored children. He will do so much worse for his most favored child. The Argo II is about to learn that the hard way.

Yuri!!! on Ice (Anime)

if these wings could fly

by antikytheras

Already, the announcer’s taken the chance to sneak in some snide commentary. Viktor tunes it out by watching Yuuri weave between the Slytherin Beaters expertly, his features tense with concentration as he pulls off a complicated manoeuvre and dodges a Bludger while stealing the Quaffle from one of Slytherin’s Chasers. The early advantage for Gryffindor nets Yuuri loud cheers from three Houses, and Viktor spots Phichit waving a banner charmed to morph between several different cute drawings of Yuuri telling himself words of encouragement. Even from down here, close to the ground, Viktor can see the real Yuuri’s joy and determination as he faces the pumped-up spectators.In that moment, with Yuuri soaring upward, framed by the clear skies and roars from the stands, Viktor finally understands that his friend belongs to a place where he can never follow.

the thin chalk line between the sun and the stars

by citrus_cola

Wilbur Soot is the prince of the North Sea, but that means next to nothing. The waters are grey and gloomy, about as soulless as he, and one day, he is meant to inherit them, take his place on the throne, and rot away, a ruling slave to the Heart of the Sea. But there's another world, Wilbur knows, a strange and unfamiliar one he ventures out to in order to escape his cold palace in the watery depths. Though it's forbidden, he sometimes catches himself nearing the human's world at night in order to sing to the stars. And it's fine, everything is fine. After all, he's never been caught before.That is, until one golden-haired human boy throws his entire life into disarray.

Tower of God

to the ends of the world

by tetsuyas

"The cause of this slow descent into insanity isn’t the annoyingly beautiful and stubborn princess Androssi nor the blithering and bothersome Rak. No, the root behind his early demise and internal suffering is one Very Wholesome and Annoyingly Oblivious Baam."Or; in which Khun Aguero Agnis has hopelessly fallen in love with Baam, and does what he does best: think.

Miraculous Ladybug

The Work of Witches and Familiars

by Momma

Marinette was like warm sunshine on a Spring morning, drawing the land back to life. She warmed the world with her very presence, brought light and comfort, fed those around her with genuine sincerity of love and patience. She was brilliant like the first bloom, and as tireless as the stout tree with embracing limbs.     Subtle magicks were, as always, the most powerful.

Gravity Falls

The Real Bipper

by Zinthr

In a last ditch effort to save Gravity Falls, Stanford creates a containment Ray that /should/ lock Bill into a bubble that he won't be able to get out of. Should is the key word though. They have to try it, having no idea if it will work. It does work- in a way. Instead of locking Bill in a bubble, it instead traps him inside of the closest person - Dipper. The two fuse into one and things only get stranger from there.
