    Summary

    [From the Archivist of the Kaitain Imperial Library, Restricted Records Division]
    This volume - catalogued for decades on actual plant-based fiber paper, was unearthed from the Imperial Palace during a routine reorganization of the Imperial Archives. The document appears to be a private diary, penned by one Kassandra Montcleir, of the D'Oisy system. The author, once betrothed to our great Emperor before the betrayal of his House, and his rise to power, is a unique witness to this pivotal time in history. How much of what she writes is true? That, history cannot answer. What became of her, however, is less certain still. The record keeps its silences. Names shift. Women become titles; titles become footnotes; footnotes become dust. We can only certify the artifact: the hand, the ink, the seal… and the fact that it was hidden well enough to be found much later.

    Or: I add in a shameless self-insert character, focus way too much on the worldbuilding of a made-up House in the Dune Universe, and pose the question no one cared to ask: what if Paul had a betrothed before the events of the first Dune Book? And what if she wrote a diary about it? This is that story.

    Summary

    Petunia Evans thought she had her life perfectly under control—until her sister dragged James Potter and his mutt into their home. The mutt turned out to be Sirius Black, a man who seemed to exist solely to drive her up the wall. Between his relentless nicknames, his infuriating charm, and his knack for showing up at the worst possible times, Petunia was certain of one thing: she hated him.

    Summary

    These violent delights have violent ends, and all that glitters is not gold. Lysa is a terrible person doing terrible things, and deserves every terrible consequence that she will bring upon others and possibly herself as a result. Given that she's been reborn as a woman in Westeros, however, that's a price she's willing to pay. It's only gunpowder; what's the worst that can happen?

    Or, a villain protagonist makes trainwreck life choices, therefore fitting in with everyone in this god awful world. Readers may rubberneck in hatred or fascination, at your own choosing.

    Summary

    When Stannis was gone, Renly couldn’t help but look up once more, towards the comet hanging in the sky. Bright red, and so far away. It had appeared last night and would surely vanish from the sky within the evening, continuing its course through space away from the planet with no name where Renly had been reborn. The planet where, he knew, he would face dragons and monsters born from the cold.

    Renly turned away. The comet did not mean anything. He had more pressing matters to attend anyway. He was going North to meet the infamous Ned Stark. With any luck, maybe he would finally find the beginning of the Plot.

    Or maybe the Plot would find him.

     

     

    (Self-Insert with nearly no knowledge of canon reborn as Renly Baratheon.)

    Summary

    “Save my son,” Narcissa’s voice was steady, her eyes determined. “Save my family.”

     

    Hermione Nott always dreamed. She dreamed of a different life, a life without magic.

    She dreamed she was a muggle.

    Or so she thought.

    When she was 11, she dreamed she was actually a muggleborn going to Hogwarts, instead of the Beauxbatons school her family sent her to.

    When she was 13, she dreamed of being petrified.

    But these were just dreams, right?

    Except, when she was 17, her parents transferred her to Hogwarts mid-term and engaged her to the Black heir.

    After that, she began to think that maybe…just maybe… these weren’t dreams at all.

    Summary

    Summary

    This is…not quite how she thought her weekend would go.

    She stares at the pink pieces of hair hanging in her face and falling down her back. She stares at the bright green eyes on a very young face.

    It seemed she was going to have to put a pin in her dream of being a homeowner at the moment. She had just been isekai-ed.

    Summary

    After his dream is finally crushed, Izuku isn’t quite sure there’s anything left for him to live for, but...he can’t exactly kill himself either, not without hurting the people he cares the most about. So, when he realizes that the quirkless can’t technically be vigilantes, it seems like the best of both worlds. He’ll be able to save people even without being a hero and, if he happens to die while he’s at it...well, like Kacchan said, maybe he’d be born with a quirk in the next life.

    This fic has a discord.

    Summary

    "I love you until the sun dies."

    Years later and he finally gets his reply from their wounded messenger owl a week after the genocide of an entire nation. No neatly folded letter. No parchment. Just a bloodstained betrothal necklace made in the most untraditional yet beautiful manner with sapphires carved like moon drops.

    Nevertheless, he understood what his lover had wanted to say.

    "I love you to the moon and back."

    Even if it was too late.

    Summary

    Shouyou’s fingers were thin, and his skin was pale. He looked a little like glass. It occurred to Tobio that a fall from that kind of height could break him in two.

    It wasn’t the fall that broke him. But something eventually did.

    You’d think, living half your life in fear of the same thing, you’d be a little more prepared when it hits. Not really.

    Summary

    “Ziyuan,” Jiang Fengmian asks one evening as both him and his wife are preparing for bed. “Do you notice how our youngest tends to attract…a different sort of trouble?”

    Ziyuan, who’s been busy removing her pearl earrings, goes still. She looks at him through the reflection of her vanity mirror. “Trouble? Our A-Cheng?” The unspoken ‘how absurd’ tacked on to the end is as clear as day. Still, she asks, “What do you mean?”

    Ah, how can he put this delicately without sounding preposterous? “By trouble I mean in the form of attention.” A pause. “Lots of attention. Possibly in the form of, uh, seasoned gentlemen.”

    Yu Ziyuan turns around and gives him a long, quiet stare. “Fengmian,” she enunciates slowly, carefully, “are you telling me that our son is a magnet for perverted old men?”

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng, resident Angry Guy and heir to a conglomerate empire, has never been the apple of his father’s eye. Quashed under the shadow of his brilliant brother, the music prodigy Wei Wuxian, Jiang Cheng sees his chance to turn things around when he is recruited by the All-Stars Lan Talent Hunt. One problem: he can’t sing to save his goddamn life.

    As he struggles to develop his nascent singing abilities, Jiang Cheng finds himself sucked into the whirlwind drama of reality TV, helped along by his adoring siblings, his irritable vocal coach Wen Qing, and strangely enough, the unfairly attractive host of the All-Stars Lan Talent Hunt, Lan Xichen. Somewhere in the glare of the stage lights and an unexpected first love, Jiang Cheng stumbles upon the thing he was searching for all along: the courage to dream — and to attempt the impossible.

    The first half was completed as part of the 2019 MXTX Bang. The second half has been completed as part of the 2022 MDZS WIP Bang and updates every Saturday.

    Summary

    “What the fuck,” he says, too loudly.

    Because that isn’t him. His voice isn’t this melodic, and he isn’t a small girl in pink pajamas, wide-eyed and pretty.

    Gojo narrows his eyes. In the mirror, hers follow suit.

    “Ok,” he says in her voice, frowning then smiling. “Interesting.”

    In the wake of Geto’s departure, Gojo walks into someone else’s life, literally. And while switching bodies with Utahime is music to his ears, it’s a waking nightmare for her. A Your Name/Kimi No Na Wa AU for Gouta Week 2022.
