    Summary

    Just where exactly is the line between “to love” and “to be in love”? What difference is required between “flatmate” and “husband”? (Besides the rings, obviously.) No, the important bit is that they have each other. Thirty years, give or take, in an atypical marriage. Basically a long bit of platonic domestic fluff.

    Summary

    What should one do or feel when he discovers that his old friend has been erasing his mind, over and over again, for almost as long as they've known each other?
    Most people would react with anger or distress. Perhaps they'd consider it a betrayal. But Olruggio isn't most people. Nor is this a situation anyone else would ever find themselves in.
    Not like this. Not like the two of them.
    Because he knows perfectly well that he is the one to blame: The real culprit behind the spell that's trapping them in an endless loop of misery.
    ---
    Olruggio remembers everything. He fully intends to use this knowledge to his advantage. This plan will be better than the last.
    (Spoilers up to Chapter 93 of the WHA manga)

    Summary

    It would only be a matter of time before Langa noticed he was acting weird and confronted him about it. What was Reki supposed to do then? What could he say that would make sense? More sense than "yeah, sorry, man, I might have fallen a teeny-tiny bit in love with you"?

    He froze. In love? No, no, nonono, that couldn’t be it. Admiration, friendship, and well, some type of crush, maybe, since Langa was so talented, and cool and always knew exactly what to say to make Reki feel all warm inside, but in love? A sequence from the video flowed into Reki’s mind; when Langa had started smiling, the pink evening light coloring his hair purple, and how his eyes had glittered, the way they always did when something made him truly happy or excited... Reki whimpered into his hands and squirmed, folding in on himself on the bed.

    Damn it, damn it, damn it, DAMN IT.

    He was so fucking screwed.

    (Or in which Reki finds himself in a most surprising situation; on a paradise island with all his friends - travel and accommodation paid in full by his least favorite person. At least the man in question isn't with them. The holiday is challenging enough as Reki tries to figure out his confusing feelings for Langa.)

    Summary

    Learning a language for your bro was totally a reasonable thing to do, Reki decided. A best bro. A bro who you wanted to spend the rest of your life with. A bro who you would follow across the universe. A bro who you loved so much, as a friend, that you genuinely couldn’t imagine your life without them at your side.

    -

    It's almost time to graduate, and neither Reki nor Langa have any concrete plans for their first foray into adulthood. But they'll have to decide what to do eventually--whether it's going to university, finding a full-time job, or trying to make skating a lucrative past-time. There is only one sure thing: Reki wants his future to include Langa no matter what, even if that means following him halfway across the world.

    Sure, Reki's aware that learning English won't guarantee that he and Langa spend the rest of their lives together, but he figures it'll at least give him a fighting chance.

    Strangely enough, he's right.

    Summary

    Madoka Kaname is quirkless. She knows she's lucky, despite this; she has seen how other quirkless people are treated. She is blessed with two friends, Sayaka Miki and Hitomi Shizuki who love her no matter what; not to mention her kind and accepting family.

    Still, Madoka cannot help but feeling useless. In a world with so many wonderful Quirks, she has nothing. Being powerless is a certain, special kind of hell in a world that only values the powerful.

    When she meets Kyuuby everything changes.

    (She didn't realize this was not a good thing until too late.)

    Summary

    Reki never thought there would be anything he enjoyed as much as skateboarding, but this whole experience is a close second and has brought upon two new realizations.

    One – as much as he likes cooking and found fun in it, he loves making Langa smile way more.

    Two – he really, really likes Langa.

    -

    There's a saying that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. So, Reki learns to cook.

    Summary

    "I'm not a baby," Langa huffs, like a baby.

    "You're right, I don't think they make babies in your size," he teases, and squirms when Langa sneaks a pinch to his side.

    -

    Langa grows. So does his relationship with Reki.

    Summary

    Adrien has mastered the art of the smile. Even while his mind is on poor behavior, when he's caught beneath a barrage of unkind thoughts to himself, he's still able to keep his smile. Attend his friends' parties, maintain small talk, get through the day — and hopefully his friends won't realize how messed up he really is.

    Everyone is out-pacing him. While he's barely getting out of bed in the morning, his friends are making waves, changing lives, getting engaged.

    He can't even get his girlfriend to text him back.

    So, sure. Maybe he's not in the best head space right now — but 'suicidal'? Ladybug's certainly just reading too deeply into things. But if her concern for Chat Noir's mental state is enough to get her reaching out, well, he won't turn down the opportunity to chat with a friend. Besides, Ladybug seems to be having a rough go of it, too. Maybe they can help each other out.

    (a Ladynoir hurt/comfort texting fic, with established Adrienette)

    Summary

    University has been hard on Marinette. Making new friends and maintaining her grades is a lot easier said than done when she has to disappear at odd times to fight akumas. She's struggling, and with Alya away with family and Adrien painfully out of reach, she's never felt lonelier.

    If only she could talk to someone who really understood her struggles... but it's not like Chat Noir would know anything about loneliness. Right?

    Summary

    A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...

    This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.

    Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!

    ::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::

    Summary

    Yoo Joonghyuk has been personally victimized by the universe since birth.

    Elevators break for him. Coffee attacks him. Pigeons recognize him as an enemy combatant. Once, a printer jammed so violently it qualified as workplace terrorism.

    Kim Dokja, meanwhile, is so lucky he once won a raffle he didn’t enter and got a free lunch because the cashier “liked his vibes.”

    When Yoo Joonghyuk discovers that Kim Dokja’s mere presence cancels out his catastrophic bad luck, he does the only reasonable thing:

    He offers him six million won to stand nearby.

    Summary

    Dokja’s temper flared in response despite the exhaustion weighing on his body.

    “Why not?”
    He snapped.
    “You are capable enough, are you not? Do not act like you need me.”

    Joonghyuk’s expression darkened.

    “I am asking why you are dying.”
    He hissed, his voice suddenly edged with frustration.
    “What is the cause? What is the reason?”

    His eyes narrowed slightly.
    “Why did you give up?”

    A disease born from unspoken love begins to unravel between two people who have always understood each other more than they dared admit.

    Summary

    Kim Dokja’s time is moving again.
    Seconds and minutes and hours and days.
    Gone is the subway –the expanse of eternity that had surrounded him like a silent blanket for long, lonely millennia.
    Gone is the Fourth Wall, leaving him to deal with his own emotions like everyone else, without unfair advantages.
    Gone are most of his powers, except the flickers that remain when he sleeps too deep, when his consciousness slips a little too far, and he feels the weight of the universe push him down. This one thing, he keeps to himself.
    Kim Dokja, once Demon King of Salvation, once Watcher of Light and Darkness, once Oldest Dream, is now simply Kim Dokja, 31 years old, unemployed. No more, no less.
    The apocalypse has ended. The scenarios are gone.
    What is left is him picking up the pieces of his life to try and make them fit back.

    Kim Dokja wakes up, heals, grieves, and loves.

    Kim Dokja just wanted to sing ONE sad song in peace.
    Now he’s somehow on national television, surrounded by glitter, dyed hair and people who take eyeliner very seriously.
    He’s not panicking.
    (He’s definitely panicking.)

    Alternatively: Kim Dokja on an idol survival show. That’s it. That’s the disaster.

    Summary

    “What do you do with the flowers?”

    Al-Haitham paused. “What do you mean?”

    “Like, what do you do with the flowers you cough up? Do you keep them or…?”

    He furrowed his eyebrows. “What—why would I keep them? I obviously throw them away. Why are you asking?”

    “I was just wondering—I mean if you’re not using them—like, if I could possibly…have them?”

    Al-Haitham stared at him incredulously. “You want my unrequited love flowers?”

    “Yes?” Kaveh flushed red. “Since…since you’re not using them.”

    Since you’re not using them—

    “What the hell would I be using them for? What the hell are you using them for?”

    Al-Haitham has Hanahaki disease and coughs up mourning flowers. Kaveh asks if he can use them for his ascension materials.
