Weekly Roundup: 15th April - 22nd April
Whoop, Sunday, tht means weekly roundup and recs (were going to pretend it is NOT Monday lol) So, I have writtn 13,184 words this week, and have uploaded 2 fics this week (technically it's three, but the Thorin Spring Forge fic is revelaed o the 25th) So, on to the recs: Not All That Glitters (Is Good For Your Health) - comatosecombat - The Hobbit (Bilbo/Thorin, post quest for Erebor)
Summary: In his attempt to distract Smaug from attacking Lake-town, Bilbo accidentally destroys the One Ring of Power, saves the day and brings peace on Middle-Earth.
When it comes to him and Thorin, that resolves absolutely nothing. An Unexpected Addition - karategal - The Hobbit (Bilbo/Thorin, this whole series is pure gold imo) Summary: All of the dwarves survive the Battle of the Five Armies, but Bilbo must return to the Shire to sort out his old life and make way for a new one in Erebor. Over one year later, Bilbo comes back to the Lonely Mountain with a recently orphaned Frodo. King Thorin isn't quite sure what to make of this new, tiny addition to his Company. far across the distance - LinguisticJubilee - The Hobbit - (Bilbo/Thorin, schmoopy Thorin has my whole heart)
Summary: Balin blinks, shifting backwards. “Laddie, it’s—it’s been a year. Bilbo has returned home, to the Shire.” He looks at Thorin, then says more gently, “I did not realize you counted the hobbit among your treasures.” i've loved you in a million different ways - dotty456 - Harry Potter (Sirius/Remus, James/Regulus, this is one of my fav Hogwarts-No voldy fics ever)
Summary: An everybody lives fanfic that follows the Marauders from before their first year to the end of Hogwarts - may include mentions of their children/marriages and future stuff because I can. Dumbledore is a douchebag, Voldemort doesn't exist and the Black cousins join together before the elder Blacks start burning that damn family tree. One Flash Of Light, But No Smoking Pistol - Ludo_ten - Harry Potter (Sirius/Remus, Zombie Au)
Summary: Nov 1981: Sirius wakes up hungover in a stranger's bed when an emergency radio broadcast warns of a viral outbreak and instructs everyone to stay inside.
Isolated and homeless, Sirius has no choice but to reconcile with his estranged brother. Their uneasy alliance plants the seeds for buried family secrets to surface. Together, they venture to Wales in search of the man he never told he loved before it's too late. What to do when one has died? Dig of course. - DBlack13 (Bilbo/Thorin, Afterlife fic, I repeate Afterlife fic (not that i have a fav trope or anything .....)
Summary: After death, Bilbo is bored. He misses his adventures, and although Yavanna’s Garden is everything a hobbit would wish for, Bilbo can’t help missing his friends in the Company, and above all, a certain blue-eyed leader… Hopefully theres at least one for you there.
Now, on to my fics <3 I'm real, I'm here. Open your eyes and see. (For @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt 249, Siirus/Remus)
Summary: Remus often dreams about Sirius and it makes him reluctant ot open his eye to the nothing he knows he will find when he does. But will he? Has he really lost everything? Thank you for giving me the stars (Sirius/Remus, an Animal Au based of this amazing art by @depsidase)
Summary: Remus and Teddy are outcasts, on the edge of Axolotl society, but Teddy makes a new friend and it looks like Remus may make a something more who is willing to show him the stars. Have a good week all <3

HD FangFest Week 3 Roundup
Well, folks, this is the FINAL weekly roundup of FangFest 2022! All of our fantastically fanged fics and fanart have been posted, and we hope you've found something to satiate your supernatural thirst 🩸! As usual, links and summaries are under the cut. Watch this space next week for a complete master list of all our vampy contributions!
Week 1 Roundup Week 2 Roundup
🦇🧛🏽‍♂️🩸🦷, Your FangFest Mods
🦇 What You've Come For by @nv-md [1.3k | E]
It doesn't matter that Draco's a bloodthirsty vampire, Harry can't stay away from him, and they come together night after night in the Astronomy Tower.
🦇 Witness Marks by @gryffindorhearts [15.5k | M]
No one comes to Cogg and Bell's with a working clock. After all, it’s Draco's job to repair what’s broken and put time – quite literally – back in order. When Harry Potter waltzes in a few decades after the War, red Head Auror robes flashing, Draco expected to serve as a consultant on a case. Instead, Harry offers him the broken Weasley family clock, and with it, the chance to live in the present for once.
🦇 The First Taste by @maraudersaffair [7.1k | E]
After being ostracized by nearly everyone after the war, Draco says yes when Harry offers him a place to stay. Perhaps he should have looked the gift horse in the mouth, however, when he discovers Harry is not all he seems.
🦇 Like Ghosts in the Snow by Pheaphilus [10k | E]
People are going missing, and Harry's not about to start reliving the days of the war, when missing wizarding folk were ten a penny. The best part of being an Auror is hunting down evil, and rescuing those who need it. And who better to ride-or-die with than his (infuriating, beautiful, annoying) Auror Partner? But this time? It might just be Draco and Harry who need rescuing. Sink your teeth into the mystery of the missing Unspeakable!
🦇 Hidden Away [ART] by @celilasart [T]
Your sweet blood on my red lips, your soft skin under my fingertips.
🦇 what husbands are for by @softlystarstruck [52.6k | E]
To settle tensions between werewolves and vampires, Harry volunteers for a political marriage. But it turns out he's marrying Malfoy– cold, untouchable Malfoy, who he hasn't seen in ten years. Throughout contention and politics, werewolf pub nights and grudgingly shared meals, they have to make it work. And in the midst of it all, Harry finds something he already gave up hoping for.
🦇 Sweet Like Candy in My Veins by @shah-writes [7.6k | M]
In which Harry is a magical theorist with a penchant for catching vampires for the Aurors and Draco is the vampire who’s in love with him. a.k.a. Draco’s hot and powerful and Harry’s going through a crisis.
🦇 a love that consumes by @amorsindolor [7.8k | M]
They come together in the only way they know how to. An exploration of monstrosity and how love consumes us.

Weekly Roundup (25/12 - 31/12)
TSUKIHIME
Some honestly sweet holiday fluff with the tsukihime cast of op's choosing
FATE/APOCRYPHA
In an alternate world, rather than summon Astolfo, Celenike summons servant Rider Goredolf Musik, driver of the Shadow and Storm Borders, he who's driving skills escaped the apocalypse twice. While everyone else is reeling from the implications that not only was a modern mage able to enter the Throne, but that said mage also was of the Musik line, Goredolf is panicking because if he, a member of Chaldea, was summoned, things are about to get very bad very fast.
FGO
Foreigner's New Years party, go as insane, as horny or as wholesome as you want
Hello fellow enjoyers of FGO! For No FGO January, I present to you all a very simple prompt. Show me your mastersonas! I don’t care under what context, how they’re doing, who they’re fucking, whether it’s wholesome, angst, whatever, I just want to see artworks/stories/whatever of your own original characters. Take this month of No FGO prompts to share what you already have, I look forward to seeing what you all have in store!
as a harmless prank, Mash and a few other servants (can be anyone like habetrot, caster cu, etc) dress up as caterpillars. It’s up to the writer/artist to decide how Morgan reacts to seeing mashu and co. in caterpillar suits.
If there was one place Ritsuka Fujimaru never expected to end up after everything with the Lostbelts and Ordeal Call was well and truly over, and the Earth was back to the way it was supposed to be... it was finding work at NFF Services, working directly under both Koyanskayas, no less. They were expecting to be worked to the bone, given their past interactions, but weirdly enough, they've been just... nice to them? Ritsuka keeps suspecting some kind of sinister plot, or cruel joke, but apparently the Koyans are just THAT invested in the well-being of their employees. Even more so in Ritsuka's case, given that they answer directly to both Light and Dark. It's still weird... but in a good way, they supposed.
Guda twin! Au where Gudako and Gudao meet once a week at Moriarty's bar to just hang and talk. Often these conversations end up being about their individual harems. (Whoever is in each harem is up to the writer but preferred that both are bisexual harems)
ranmaru x takes ritsuka back to her planet, and it’s up to the gudaguda gang to get ritsuka back!
so I found out by a yt short that takeda likes boys and writes passionate love letters to them. how about Kagetora and/or Nobunaga making fun of him for his passion for boys
thanks to the event I need some Ibuki x Habetrot for no reason other than major size difference makes brain go brrr. Smut is optional but there's gotta be emphasis on how wide the height gap is.
smut, While he mostly feeds of dreams. Merlin does occasionally need sex as every incubus does. Being one of the only human's alive, Gudako agrees, thinking that it's just gonna be a quickie. Cut to hours later. Gudako's mind has turned to mush and she's super overstimulated, begging Merlin to stop but he just. Keeps. Going. (yes I'm very horny for Merlin if you can tell)
I just finished LB6 and I have the BIGGEST Mélusine brainrot right now! I would appreciate anything about Mélusine x Female Ritsuka! Thanksss
taigong trying to have a peaceful fishing day but weird shit keeps happening so he says screw it and proceeds to annihilate anything that tries to fuck it up
Koyanskaya of Darkness is perusing her catalogue and pondering what new creatures to add to it when a flash of inspiration comes to her; what better way to add to her wares than to collar her own Light form? (smut is optional but recommended)
smut, Castoria x Tonelico sloppy sex. If they use Merlin's magic dick(tm) or not is up to the author
Agravain, despite what others might think, loved his siblings. He always had difficulty showing it, its true, but he never hated them or anything. This is why he would always send them out on missions. He believed in them that much. And so, Agravain awaits two of his siblings at the execution grounds for the traitor Guinevere when a scout arrives.
ANY
Write the killing blow your servants performed on a boss of your choosing. To give an example, here's mine. It was close to the end, Ritsuka could feel it. The immature Evil was worn down and she had only one retainer left, the other recently slain by Lobo before he was taken out. Taigong Wang and Mélusine fired off their noble phantasms, killing the last retainer before revealing that the immature Beast yet lived. She retaliated with her own, forcing Taigong out of the fight as Mélusine was the last one standing. Ritsuka used her last two command seals to heal Mélusine and give her one final order. "By my command seal, Mélusine, unleash your noble phantasm!" She took to the sky chanting. "My name is Albion. The last dragon who opens the boundary! From Geoffrey to Fromont! Show us the time, Tukedight!" Not taking any chances, she struck while Koyanskaya was still reeling from the blow. Koyanskaya retaliated with devastating strikes as the two realized something. Both were close to death and their next clash would be their last. They pushed themselves to their limit but unfortunately for the immature Beast, Mélusine was much faster. With energy from her weapons forming a dragon's maw, she crunched down on Koyanskaya, finally putting their battle to an end.
CROSSOVER
After Mirei Park's offer and ultimatum, rather than go to Fukuoka, Kiryu goes to Fuyuki and starts a new life there. He becomes intertwined with the local Yakuza and, by extension, the participants of the 5th Holy Grail War. When the events of Yakuza 5 begin, Daigo makes an alliance with the Fujimura Family, and soon, all hell breaks loose. The conspiracy is expanded in scale due to influence from magi seeking to claim the Grail for themselves, and Kiryu must work together with Rin, Shirou, Sakura, and Rider to keep the ones they love safe.

CLAIMED - Chapter 16
Tumblr media
*Warning: Adult Content*     
“Alright, that's enough for today. Rest up well tonight, we have one versus one sparring tomorrow,” Pack Warrior Tank stood, tall and strong, his arms crossed and eyes observant as he mind-linked other Warriors. 
The Crescent Moon Pack Warriors stood in various groups, scattered across the expanse of their lush training field as they sparred in pairs.
Both Beta Jaxson Ortiz and his Mate, Head Warrior Corey Cahill got back to work soon after their tether was broken, although they had been granted a few rest days to recoup from the stress of their lives these past few months.
Needless to say, Corey did not manage to get much actual rest throughout those few days, as his Wolf Dashiell anxiously prodded his consciousness every few minutes, ordering him alert and awake to protect their precious Mate from anything and everything that had even a one-percent chance of being a threat to his well-being.
 And as of now, they were so busy catching up on paperwork and new Pack happenings that they had yet to act on their new arrangement.
The arrangement that made butterflies burst from their chrysalis in Corey’s stomach to even think about.
All of the Pack Warriors immediately paused at Warrior Tank's announcement, partners giving each other fist bumps and high fives for spars well-fought as they began the long trek back toward Jaxson and Corey, the first and second Head Warriors, to retrieve their belongings and sweat towels.
"Hey, thanks for leading the meeting with that crazy Alpha on your own today. I could feel Dr Benji's discomfort this entire time and I can't fuckin' bear leaving him alone any longer," Tank said, turning his head to flash a crooked, lighthearted smirk in Corey’s direction. 
Although, despite his nonchalant exterior, Tank could not fully mask his anxiety from his friend. 
Corey could immediately tell that he was feeling a sense of turmoil by the way one of his hands shakily came up to ruffle through the light brown waves atop his head.
As long as he could remember, Corey has always been incredibly sensitive to the emotions and body language of others. 
He always considered it his mind's attempt to compensate for his body's lack of ability to outwardly portray emotions, his stony facade forever affixed in a perpetual state of what some called 'resting bitch face.'
Corey nodded respectfully back at Tank, his firmly crossed arms tightening with concern at the mention of his Mate's current ailment.
"Your situation is completely understandable. Our mates should be our greatest priority at all times, leading a simple meeting pales in comparison to your current responsibility," Corey replied truthfully, narrowing his eyes out into the distance as he initiated a silent headcount of their Warriors in order to ensure that no one was being left behind.
"Yeah but you and I both know this isn't our regular 'weekly roundup.' This one is probably gonna be a shitstorm, what with the crazy Alpha of that Feral Pack that keeps giving us issues," Tank breathed out, another hand raking through his hair which was becoming more and more messy by the second.
"But man, I can't focus on anything worth a damn today. No matter how many times I experience it, Benji's estrus cycle always makes me feel like my nerves are going to burst right out of my damn skin," the large man said, shaking his head with an incredulous expression, brows drawn up and eyes crinkling with stress as he bent down to grab his tactical bag. "I don't even want to imagine what it would be like if Benji was full Fae, your brother is in for it when Daffodil finally gets his."
Corey hummed in understanding, leaning down to grab his own tactical bag as he completed his count and their Warriors were all finally within a stone's throwing distance of them. 
The Fae race was known for being extremely fertile, with all of their people possessing the inherent ability to carry a child and give birth regardless of gender. 
Once they find their mates, they tend to go into a bimonthly estrus cycle, one that is similar to that of a Luna's heat. 
However, it’s main difference lies in the magic that the Fae releases during their cycle, said to make the experience indescribably intense, as if influenced by some sort of hallucinatory psychostimulant.
"See you tomorrow, Boss," the husky voice of one of their best Warriors, Gray shouted as she passed me, heading to retrieve her own tactical bag that leaned against the roots of the large willow tree that they used as their training base.
Corey nodded in acknowledgement toward her before more voices began to join in, prompting a cacophony of goodbyes to fill the air as everyone began heading back toward the Pack House, although the Head Warrior lagged behind to make sure that all belongings were claimed.
"I'm gonna head out while I still have at least a shred of sanity left," Tank grumbled, reaching out to smack his heavy palm down onto Corey’s shoulder in a friendly parting gesture. "See you tomorrow at the ass-crack of dawn," he shouted as he jogged backward in the direction of his and Doctor Benji's second-floor bedroom, shooting a formal salute in Corey’s direction before turning back around to face his destination. 
Not a moment later did he manage to scale his muscular form up the wall, effortlessly hoisting himself up and through the open window.
His urgency to get back into his Mate's vicinity was not at all lost on Corey who could more than understand the constant, protective itch that lurked just under the skin of a Dominant Mate, shrill alarm bells incessantly ringing in the forefront of their brains whenever our other half was not within sight or scent's distance.
The same alarm bells that were currently making Corey involuntarily move toward the conference room in large, hurried strides, seeking out the place that he knew where Jaxson would be.
His heart skipped about ten beats as he rounded the corner, his large body suddenly feeling light as a feather despite the heavy bag of weaponry that weighed down on his shoulder.
‘There he was.’
Corey’s lips twitched upward a millimeter as his brain attempted a smile, although the brief display of emotion would be lost on most, if not all, of those who witnessed it.
His Mate, Jaxson stood there, propped up against the wall, his cute, springy black curls kissing his pale forehead as he tilted his head down to stare at his cell-phone. 
His long legs crossed at the ankle as he lounged against the wall outside of the conference room door, completely oblivious to the large man who was making his way down the hallway in the direction of the both of them.
This man was tall, likely above six and a half feet of lean muscle. 
Just this observation alone indicated to Corey that he was the Feral Pack Alpha that they were meeting with today, Alpha of a pack in which most of the members spent their lives in Wolf form.
He was barefoot, with dark, flowing hair terminating just underneath his pecs and clothing that comprised of nothing other than a heavy cloak and britches made of stitched rawhide. 
The Alpha wore multiple necklaces and rings made of bone, ones that told tales of battles long fought and long won, clinking dully as he walked.
However, the most noticeable feature was his skin.
Skin that was saturated with swirls of black ink, covering every visible inch aside from his upper neck and face, on which a straight, thin line of ink led steadily over each cheekbone to meet on the bridge of his nose.
The Head Warrior held the visiting Alpha’s intense, hazel-eyed gaze as they silently sized each other up, Corey’s Wolf, Dashiell rising higher in otheir consciousness as they recognized the presence of another Alpha, especially one that was deemed dangerous in the eyes of the Crescent Moon pack.
Corey moved with even more earnest intent as he neared Jaxson, his eyes never leaving the threat of an Alpha as he moved to enter the conference room but not before his eyes drifted down to his feet and back up again, a foreboding hint of darkness in their glassy depths.
Now, there are very few things that manage to quell anger inside of him. 
However, a threat, no matter how inconsequential, toward anyone important to Corey is the quickest way to achieve it.
He barely contained a growl from escaping his tight chest as the Alpha disappeared, instead gritting his teeth and swallowing down his frustration as he breathed in the infinitely calming scent of the beauty before him.
‘The scent of my mate.’
"Stop grumbling like that, you big meathead," the voice of Corey’s beloved graced his ears, finally detaching his eyes from the spot at which the Alpha disappeared and instead shifting them down to the smaller man in front of him, the Beta who held his entire heart.
A teasing smirk graced Jaxson’s plump lips as Corey gazed down upon him, his pale skin seeming to hold an ethereal glow in the light that cascaded down from the large hallway window. 
Meanwhile, a perfect, black coil drifted down into the space between his bright green eyes.
No matter how many times Corey did, each time he saw Jaxson felt like the first as he perpetually fell deeper into the spell of all that he is, delightfully hyper-fixated on every little detail.
For example, he could easily find himself completely enraptured for hours over the way his Mate’s adorable nose crinkled in four different spots when he was angry or the delicate but proud curves of his kneecaps or the way his sneezes were somehow akin to the sound of a cat's meow, or the way he...
"Uhh. Hello. Earth to Corey." 
Corey blinked as Jaxson's hand waved in front of his eyes, the action snapping him out of the infinite trance that he surely would have lost himself in if not for his Mate’s intervention.
The Warrior cleared his throat in an effort to regain his bearings, reaching out to take Jaxson's wrist between his fingers. 
He fought the gnawing compulsion to pull him straight into his chest and never let the smaller man go but he realized the action to be slightly unprofessional given all of the higher-ups currently filing into the conference room beside them.
Instead, he settled for tugging Jaxson’s hand to his lips, instilling a soft kiss to the thinner skin of his inner wrist.
"Oh thank fuck, I thought that my sarcasm sent you into shock or some shit. I swear I'm working on it, I'm just kind of an asshole at heart and it's hard to unlearn stuff and..."
Corey silenced Jaxson with the tip of his index finger, pressed delicately against his plump, pink lips.
Lips that he wanted to... to do so many things to.
"There is no need to change any part of who you are for me, Jaxson," Corey murmured, his own lips still brushing against the sensitive inner part of his Mate’s wrist. "I am fully aware that you mean no ill intent."
Jaxson’s pale skin tone immediately gave way to a light pink color that quickly permeated his high cheekbones, his eyes glistening and lids wavering as if there was something that he desperately wanted to say sitting directly behind them. 
However, instead of speaking, he released a pent-up breath, gently pulling his wrist away from Corey’s hold and brushing past his Lover to the door of the conference room.
Just before he could slip inside, the beauty shot Corey a somewhat shaky smirk that the head Warrior could sense was slightly forced, slapped on top of his true emotions like a band aid. 
"Well come on, they aren't going to wait all day for you to stop staring at me like you want to eat me, you cannibal."
Corey followed obediently behind Jaxson, eyes immediately darting around the large, rectangular table that filled up the center of the space.
At the far right end of the conference table sat Alpha Oasis Amador, tall and proud as he mumbled back and forth with Corey’s little brother and Luna, Berlin Cahill, who sat just to his right. 
Next to Berlin, Beta Jaxson Ortiz was currently sliding into his designated seat, slumping his body into the leather the moment it made contact. 
Filling the rest of the right side of the table were about six more of the Crescent Moon pack higher-ups, including Oasis' assistant Sam, their Head Patrollers and a few others.
At the center of the other side of the table sat the Feral Pack Alpha, flanked by two muscular Wolves who were obviously a part of their Pack judging by their similar state of dress and the sharp-looking tattoos that painted a large portion of their dark skin. 
They sat, arms crossed against their bare chests, lips set in a straight line as their kohl-lined eyes discreetly but continuously scanned the group.
Corey could tell his own kind from miles away. 
These men were Warriors.
He quickly took his assigned seat and set his tactical bag next to him, all senses unwaveringly observant as he settled in. 
His position, which was directly across from their guests and closest to the only exit door, was intentional, as he could easily get across the table to intervene just in case any of their guests decided to handle business in a... less than favorable manner.
His head snapped to the left and the already fairly quiet room completely silenced as Alpha Oasis cleared his throat. 
The Crescent Moon Alpha sat straight up in his high-backed chair, setting his clasped hands on the tabletop in front of him as he prepared to speak.
"I will skip the pleasantries and get straight to the point, as I am well aware of the fact that we are both exceedingly busy men," Oasis deadpanned, his expression steely and incredibly impassive as he held the icy gaze of the Feral Pack Alpha. "Alpha Sephtis, We are gathered here today to discuss the matter of your pack members crossing over our territory lines. It has occurred multiple times over the past few weeks, and has continued despite multiple warnings. We demand an explanation in lieu of degrading our packs'... relations."
An uncomfortably tense silence descended into the room as the Feral Pack Alpha did nothing but stare at Alpha Oasis for a long moment.
It continued that way until one of his Warriors proceeded to shift his weight, bone necklaces clacking as he leaned over to whisper something into his Alpha's ear. 
Corey shifted sensory focus to his hearing, attempting to key in on the hushed conversation, however the language that they utilized to communicate amongst themselves was indecipherable, not akin to any that he'd previously studied. 
The Warrior then returned to his previous, watchful position as Alpha Sephtis began to speak.
"We acknowledge the territorial claims of none other than the Cave Sands Pack," the Alpha spoke of his pack in third person, sardonic words weighed down by the thickness of his accent. "Your... statements carry no weight to us. Whatever fertile land the Moon Goddess provides will be used as hunting ground for my wolves," he finished matter-of-factly. 
Corey’s jaw tensed as he picked up on the threat hidden in his words as well as the thinly veiled shift in body language of his Warriors, whose eyes ceased their continuous scanning to now focus exclusively on Alpha Oasis. 
Corey quietly shifted his shin back and to the right so that he could easily access the spare knife and hand-gun that were tucked discreetly into his heavy combat boots.
'Corey, be on high alert,' Oasis' voice boomed in the forefront of Corey’s mind, his Pack Link sent with a distinct urgency.
'Already one step ahead, Alpha,' Corey responded immediately.
Although he could sense his flaring anger through the link, Alpha Oasis showed no outward change in emotion, a useful skill he'd steadily gotten better at over the past few months of leadership. 
There was another long pause before Oasis spoke again, his lips forcing themselves up at the corners into the semblance of a smile despite his intense frustration that rippled through the Mind Link.
"My pack is my utmost priority, which I am sure that you can empathize with as a fellow Alpha. Therefore, I am sure that you can also understand my... dissatisfaction with constantly sending my Patrollers and Warriors into high-alert every other day due to your constant breaches," Oasis breathed, leaning forward in his chair. "After all, I would just hate for one of those breaches to have to turn into something that would benefit neither of us."
Alpha Sephtis' eyes narrowed into slits and Corey’s fingers tingling as he forced them still in his lap.
"Is that your attempt at some sort of threat?" he spat back, his upper lip curling into a snark as he barked a humorless laugh in Oasis' direction. 
Corey’s fingers slipped down to brush the top of his boot as Alpha Sephtis' crossed arms tightened and the tips of his fingers dug slightly deeper into his biceps. 
Oasis' head tilted the slightest bit as he leaned forward even further in his chair, his strong triceps bunching against the fabric of his short sleeves and blue eyes darkening with intent.
"Take my words as you will, Sephtis. Just heed that the Crescent Moon Pack will not tolerate another breach with the same courtesy as I am extending to you now."
The room boomed with the guffaws of the Feral Alpha as his eyes turned wild, their hazel depths swirling with a crimson tinge as he also leaned forward in his chair, his body language intentionally mimicking that of  Alpha Oasis. 
He muttered something in his native language, a series of harsh clips and guttural tones before he continued his verbal assault in English.
"You think that you scare me, mongrel?" his hazel-crimson eyes shifted to drink in the rest of the group, a disgusted sneer contorting his face into quite the menacing sight and accent thickening through the filter of his fury. "Your pack is nothing to me," he literally spat this time, right onto the floor to the side of his chair as to emphasize himself and add insult to injury.
"Listen, asshole. Alpha Ossis is being really fuckin' nice to you, so I advise you watch yourself before..." Jaxson's beautiful voice made Corey’s palm involuntarily wrap firmly around the hilt of his silver blade, his gaze flickering around the scene, within which tension was steadily rising to a boiling pitch.
However, before Jaxson could finish his statement he was interrupted by none other than the visiting Alpha.
"Oh, shut up Omega. The Alphas are speaking," Alpha Sephtis hacked in his direction, sending Alpha Oasis directly to his feet.
"You will respect our Beta while on our territory," Oasis grumbled, his eyes swirling with a metallic hue as his Wolf, York began to rise to the surface. 
Luna Berlin's eyes were wide and terrified at this point, delicate fingers finding his Mate's wrist and stroking against the scent glands there in a feeble attempt to calm him down.
"That is your Beta?" Sephtis roared with laughter once again, although the wildly sinister look seemed to still be almost tattooed on his face, not unlike the ink on his skin. "That boy looks none other than the likes of any other cock-slut in my pack."
Corey’s hackles immediately rose and nerves vibrated at the insult hurled toward his mate, barely containing the craving to launch himself across the table and crush the skull of this man with his bare palm.
"You know, I have just thought of the perfect solution," Sephtis said, moistening the corner of his lip with the tip of his tongue as he leaned forward even more, his now almost completely crimson eyes flickering back and forth between Oasis and Jaxson. "Let me have this poor excuse for a Beta and you will never have to worry about one of my own on your territory again, how about that?" 
Alpha Sephtis' heavily calloused hands splayed out wide on the top of the table and quickly began to move toward his target, his excitement about his 'solution' glaringly evident. 
"After all, winter is quickly approaching and I could always use another bitch to warm my cock... AHHH."
Everything moved very fast in the moment that Corey began to see red.
Before he or anyone else could even blink, Corey was crouched on top of the table, chest heaving and canines fully bared down at the scum who sat beneath them. 
Corey was very aware of the fact that Sephtis’ Warriors had swiftly moved into place as well, spears with blades of bone pointing directly at his heart but he did not care.
The rich baritone of his growl filled every inch of the room, sinking it into complete and utter silence as the Alpha stared incredulously down at his hand.
His hand that Corey’s silver blade now grotesquely protruded through the top of and into the dark mahogany of the table, a long crack now apparent down the length of it from the sheer force of impact.
Corey’s free left hand steadily gripped the stock of his Glock 19, the muzzle of which pointed directly at the temple of the...
‘Poor excuse of an Alpha.’
"You will do well to remember that our pack triples yours in size and it is now evident that our intelligence follows suit." 
Corey’s Wolf, Dashiell pushed into the front of his consciousness, prompting his right hand to twist the blade even further into Alpha Sephtis' flesh.
Corey ignored the his howls of pain as he continues, keeping his voice low and pacing incredibly calm in order to ensure that the Alpha hears and understands... 
‘Every single word.’
"Because if you ever even so much as breathe in the direction of my Mate again, I will find the greatest pleasure in making you disappear."

uraraka-centric fic recs
it’s time for my best girl! here’s a collection of 27 gen, uraraka-centric fic recs. a mix of mostly canon compliant fics and some aus; hurt/comfort, fluff, angst, and everything in between. 
for more fic recs, please check out my:  ‘fic rec’ tag | ‘bnha fic rec’ tag | ‘weekly fic roundup’ tag (bnha)
Starfire by Anonymous
gen; 2.6k; chapters 1/1 complete
Stars create gravity, and Uraraka wishes on herself.
It was impossible to make her own shooting stars, but that inspiration sounded like a touch of divinity. Only the imaginings of a god with their versatility of powers could be capable of involving outer space. Uraraka...dreamed of that.
Home for Christmas by sobakasuai
gen; 1.2k; chapters 1/1 complete
Ochako feels slightly pitiful about herself as she loads a few more cups of noodles into her shopping basket. Christmas Eve was a time spent with family— a time for gifts under the tree, multicolored lights in the windows, and sending cheesy postcards in the mail.
Yet here she is, stocking up on sustenance as she rushes to get back to the dormitories before it gets too dark to be comfortable with walking back alone. A violation of Christmas spirit in human form, feeling not unlike Ebenezer Scrooge.
Barology by MissAquarius
gen; 4.6k; chapters 1/1 complete
Barology: the study of gravity.
intersection by kiroiimye
gen; 1.2k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & bakugou
“Getting coffee, obviously.” She doesn’t want to meet his eyes and it’s only happened once before; the first times had been intimidation from hardened crimson eyes. But as the years went on, she had grown past that stage; he was more a classmate than enemy. “Would you like to—
“Nope.” It’s flippant, over-the-shoulder, but Bakugou makes no move to leave and Ochako can’t help but smile wryly.
It’s the sort of thing he’d pull when they were younger.
Ochako runs into Bakugou after graduation.
momentous by kiroiimye
gen; 2/6k; chapters 1/1 complete
She’s in the middle of a math lesson, ignoring the whispers behind her back when the rumbling starts. It’s a dull roar in the beginning, and it’s when the pens start rattling on her desk that she stops the lecture. Even the students have gone quiet in their seats, the room stilled with tension.
“Uraraka-sensei, what was that?”
Ochako squares her shoulders, lowering her voice. “I don’t know, but stay alert.”
And then the water comes rushing in.
Becoming a teacher was not part of Ochako's post-U.A. plans, and yet here she is. Standing in front of a raucous class of about twenty teenagers, who all seem to have it out for her. Really, why is she here again?
The Hunger for Survival by SingingCookie
gen; 6.2k; chapters 1/1 complete
People say your early life shapes you, really molds you into the person you’ll become. Likes, dislikes, the habits, the tics, and the pet peeves… A majority of that when you grow up is influenced by where you came from.
Ochako’s early life shaped her into someone who knew how to survive—but it was always the living that fell just out of reach.
one hundred percent by UnidentifiedPie
gen; 2.2k; chapters 1/1 complete
White like bone, Uraraka thinks, mind flashing back to the people she saw on the street. Civilians lying all around, eyes blank and staring and dead. The defeated hero, body a mangled mess, spilled organs and shattered, bloodied bone.
She’d watched that hero die. The villain Uraraka had fought had gripped him by the neck and supercharged his blood, contorted his body into something twisted and terrible. She’d run for him, something screaming in her heart and lungs and nononono-
-but she wasn’t fast enough. And it didn’t matter anyway; the man had been dead before he’d hit the ground.
Patchwork by bishounen_curious
gen; 6.8k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & 1a/1b girls
At the beginning of Third Year, Ochako suggests to the girls in the Hero Course that they make a patchwork quilt to commemorate their time together at U.A., their friendship and their solidarity as women in the hero profession. Something private and special that they all can share for years to come.
However, the quilt doesn't get finished. And it never does.
at long last by Quintessence
gen; 2.7k; chapter 1/1 complete; uraraka family
"Her parents were proud. The kind of proud that came from decades of unrelenting hard work matched in intensity only by their miserable luck. The kind of proud that made them refuse the money Ochako sent after her every paycheck. The kind of proud that was going to make a gift of the magnitude she planned to give go down as easily as a mouthful of chalky pills without water."
In which pro-hero Uravity finally achieves her lifelong dream of giving her parents an easy life.
got your six by Quintessence
gen; 1.6k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & bakugou
“Oh, yeah, they rejected my application,” Uraraka says, like it’s nothing, which, Bakugou decides, fists clenched under the table, it most certainly isn’t. “They’re mostly a combat-based agency, and they thought I’d be better suited for a rescue oriented one. So I’m gonna keep looking. I mean, Kurashiki Agencies isn’t the only game in town, so I’m a little bummed, but it’s okay.”
And then she has the nerve to smile, making her full, pink cheeks even rounder, shrug, and take a sip of her drink. Bakugou has to breathe deeply before he replies, because he really is working on not lashing out as much anymore, but the anger burns and bubbles like boiling water in his stomach.
“That’s the biggest fucking load of bullshit I’ve ever heard, Round-Face.” His teeth are clenched as he speaks, but at least he’s not yelling. “I mean, have they even seen what you can do? Or did they just take one look at your Quirk and fucking write you off?”
In which Uraraka gets rejected from a hero agency, and Bakugou is her most aggressive (and I mean aggressive) supporter.
Like an Onion by BigDangoFamily
gen; 3.7k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & aoyama, background/minor uraraka/midoriya
It was strange, Uraraka thought, how someone so sparkly and so over-the-top could fade into the background so easily. Even with his theatrical nature and his showy costume and his (quite literally) dazzling Quirk, Uraraka had somehow never noticed Aoyama that much.
He was a piece of the background; he helped make up the landscape of their class; he was a figure her eyes automatically skipped over in her search for her friends—which, when she put it like that, made it sound pretty harsh.
It wasn’t that she particularly disliked Aoyama. She would gladly enjoy time spent hanging out with anyone in Class 1-A (well, maybe not Mineta), and she was friendly to all her classmates. That was how she was. It was just that, somehow, her eyes had always seemed to glide right off of Aoyama.
Well, now her eyes definitely saw him, and quite clearly too.
OR: Uraraka unexpectedly comes to respect Aoyama.
Determination by chockfullofsecrets
gen; 1.1k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & midoriya
If Uraraka wants to win this sparring match, she’s going to need to find a way to put a stop to Deku’s endless determination.
perfidy by khattikeri
gen; 500 words; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & midoriya
She pressed the knife harder against Midoriya's throat.
Just Keep Floating by ProPinkist
gen; 2.9k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & all might
Ochako runs into Toshinori, hiding away alone in the dorms, who might could use a helping hand.
Luckily, in this case, she's just the right person for the job.
Uravity: (Kitten) Rescue Hero by TenyaTrash
gen; 1.4k; chapters 1/1 complete
Childhood Ochako is always looking for ways to excel as a rescue hero. She wants to help her parents, her friends, and the world.
And wouldn't you know it? She's got a knack for finding animals that are purrfectly in need of a rescue or two.
Every hero has to start somewhere!
Freefall by Cornflower_Blue
gen; 2k; chapters 1/1 complete
The first time it happens, it is an accident.
The first time it happens, Ochako is just walking around her neighborhood.
Cold Tea and Hot Tears by Wolfie_Dragon
gen; 2.6k; chapters 1/1 complete; minor uraraka/midoriya
When Ochako and the other work studies students are back at the dorms after the Shie Hasaikai raid, things are supposed to go back to normal. But Ochako finds she can't forget the horrible events. It's only in the dark of night that she finds that Deku is just as traumatized, if not more.
Scars by All_five_pieces_of_Exodia
gen; 2.4k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & dekusquad
When Ochako is training one day and gets injured because of it, she starts to wonder about scars and what the people who have them think of them.
But does she even want to know?
Normalcy Has Its Place by Madam_Chauncey
gen; 3.2k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & yaoyorozu
Sometimes a day of kickboxing with your gal pal is all you need. Or; Momo and Ochako decide to make the best of a bad week.
foundations by blueberrytree
gen; 2.5k; chapters 1/1 complete
Ochako drums her fingers anxiously on the surface of her desk. Why does she want to be a hero? It had seemed so clear before last night’s phone call—make money to support her parents and give them an easy life. Now, though? 
Gravitational Pull by Sky_King
gen; 2.9k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & dekusquad
Despite having been friends for a while now, Izuku soon realizes there's a lot he doesn't know about Uraraka.
And on the other hand, Ochako discovers that opening up to her friends might not be as frightening as she suspects it to be.
Sleep is for the Weak by baggytshirtsandtiredeyes
gen; 2.9k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & aizawa
Exhaustion was as familiar to Ochako as breathing. She was only fifteen but she felt more like she was edging on forty. But it was okay. She could just power through. She couldn’t stop now. Not when she was living her dream.
Catch Me When I Fall by baggytshirtsandtiredeyes
gen; 2.1k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & asui
Ochako feels like she's falling behind her classmates so she starts training alone. One night Tsuyu finds her and offers to help. If only they could have known what was going to happen.
If the Dress Fits by calamansifresh
gen; 2.4k; chapters 1/1 complete
It’s the day of the Annual Hero Awards Gala and Uraraka Ochako is in attendance as the recipient of the Rising Star Award. While she’s certainly proud of her heroic accomplishments, impostor syndrome rears its ugly head and she wonders if she really belongs in the spotlight.
caution, handle with care by SpiritusRex
gen; 2.7k; chapters 1/1 complete
It was an accident. Ochako reminds herself, as she cups her hand to her mouth and tries to keep the hot, bright blood from dripping through her fingers. It was an accident.
But Ochako knew, had witnessed, just how severe an accident could be.
She pulls her hand away, and her palm comes back with a jagged chunk of a tooth cradled in the center. The sight blurs in front of her eyes; a dot of white in a small pool of red.
Ochako takes a page out of Deku's book, and makes an impulsive, painful decision.
All Might for a day by PurpleCarSeat
gen; 9.3k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & all might
What had he been about to say?
Ochako expects it’s more of the same “push beyond your own limits!” stuff that he likes to spout, which always feels a little hollow coming from him because All Might doesn’t have limits. Despite what he claimed, she doesn’t think All Might has ever been weak. He’s the number one hero, perfect in every way. He can move faster than the eye can follow and jump so high he’s practically flying. He was probably trying to make her feel better – it seems like the sort of thing he’d do.
Or: Ochako learns the hard way that strength is more than just physical, and that the people at the top are only human too
Sacrifices and Jogging Routes by Quillium
gen; 5.8k; chapters 1/1 complete; uraraka & dekusquad
"We're heroes," she says instead, simply, quietly. It's hard to be excited about becoming a hero... every child's dream, what everyone idolizes... when you know the likely outcome. Most of her friends will die before her or she will be dead before they've even begun to sport wrinkles.
OR
Uraraka tries to figure out what it means to be a hero and the sacrifices that it entails.

Moonlight Becomes You: Apocalypse Midnight Dance Party, Ch. 9
Love Live/Love Live Sunshine, NozoEli, NicoMaki, KanaMari, YoshiMaru, 1.8K, 9/?
Summary: Most everyone settles in for a quiet night.
INTERLUDES
Pacing, Nico was frustrated and pacing, reminding herself of Eli on growl prowl as moonrise neared, Nico trying not to just throw herself into a wall to see how it sounded. That wasn’t how Nico coped, no, Nico did practical things, so taking a rag in hand she began to wipe down the counters. After that, the sliding doors, then maybe she would start chopping things for a stew or something. Not borscht though, Nico made a face, tongue out, gagging, even though there wasn’t anyone to amuse or tease. Beets, beets you could have too many of, and cream, cloying, heavy sweet cream...Eli’s new Russian food cravings were having too much influence on Nico’s meal choices. Tonight though, Nico was opting for a less cloggy choice. If Nico was eating alone, a crisp, fresh salad from locally sourced produce was the ticket...just the lightest dressing. She opened a cabinet, small bowl, olive oil, mustard, white wine vinegar, whisk, then take the chives out of the refrigerator and start chopping. Lift the knife, let it fall, get into a nice, non pacing rhythm, ignoring the people who were ignoring her by not blowing up her phone with apology texts, that was the ticket. And then, after the sensible salad, curling up on the sofa to watch K-Pop weekly roundups and eat strawberry gelato. That was the best way to spend an evening. Really it was. Nico knows all. That decided, Nico hummed as she assembled her dinner.
###
Kanan fell back into her couch, sighing. Mari flounced out of the bedroom, in her third outfit of the day, a bright --somehow -- gray sleeveless sweater dress that her hair fell off the shoulders of like the molten gold of the sun rising out of the sea. From her first sight of Mari, Kanan had never not been captivated by how that glow reflected Mari’s sunniness, inhumanly bright and impossibly brattish.
“How much did you scare Eli?” Kanan asked wearily, having developed over many years the dual capacity for enthusiasm and cynicism about the ‘helpful’ wrenches Mari in fix it mode would throw into the lives of their friends and acquaintances.
“Mio cuore, I’m not cruel. I did nothing to your dancer, except trying to get Nozomi to acknowledge the fact that she couldn’t take her eyes off the poor girl. And I can see why.”
“Mari.” Exasperated, Kanan closed her eyes, stretching her arm out along the couch, knowing what would come next. And there it was, the softest touch of feather soft strands, then the weight of Mari’s head against her shoulder.
“Ah, but you are the only beast for me, bella. We have always been linked by the thread of destiny.” Mari whispered against her ear with a touch of lips as soft as the slightest swell of the sea.
Kanan’s laugh was a bark, “No matter how much you gnaw at it.”
“KANAN.” Mari’s shock was genuine as she threw herself back across the couch, hand fluttering to cover her betrayed heart. Mari’s shock was always genuine when Kanan refused to let Mari charm her way out of confrontations.
“So Eli wasn’t crying because of you?” Kanan’s suspicions continued. The memory of Eli’s red rimmed eyes wouldn’t fade.
“No.” Mari’s dramatics were eclipsed by gentle concern.
“I wonder what it’s like to be surprised…” Kanan hesitated, caught by a sudden realization.
“Huh?”
“I always knew who I was.” Kanan reached her hands out for Mari’s, always so warm, always so willing to pull her out of fogs.
“Oh.” Mari frowned, scooting down the couch as Kanan reached out. “it must be terrifying.”
Kanan had watched Eli’s meticulous, unvarying warm up routine before every one of their rehearsals, the dancer slowly progressing through exercises and positions, always at the same slow speed, always in the same order. “Yeah.”

Dia was standing catty-corner to the fireplace, staring at the ocean. She’d only seen pictures of the Malibu estate like this, before the beach had been covered and the rock stairs useless at high tide. There were favorite corners she’d rather be tucked into, but Maki hadn’t invited her guests into the downstairs suites. The decorating was so strange anyway, complete absence of any hint of Nico, which made everything seem cold. Dia shivered, accidentally timed to a cough from You, who still persisted in flashing unforgettable legs in very forgettable, should be trashed shorts. Was this California in the early 21st century? Because, Dia decided, it could keep its complete lack of fashion aesthestic, before she wrenched her eyes from You’s tanned legs to the very worried blue eyes watching her.
“Weird for you, huh?” You chuckled.
“Can’t you find clothes?” Dia snapped, turning even further out to sea.
“Uh yeah, sorry about these.” You gestured at herself, “Wasn’t expecting Yoshiko to drop you into my day like that.”
“Is it Yoshiko or Yohane?” Dia wasn’t really curious, but these questions allowed her to loop around any looming embarrassments or admissions.
“Both.” You shrugged. “I’m sure she’ll explain.”
“I’m not sure she’ll have a chance. Why in the world would I…” Dia started, irritated.
“Don’t you want to get back home?” You parried with a shrewd question.
Dia sighed and sat on one of the chairs parallel to the window, pulling a leg up to rest her chin on, “Of course I do. But maybe this is a dream…?”
“Ooohh, I’ve never been in anyone’s dream with lighting like this.” You struck a pose, hands under her chin, fluttering her eyelashes at Dia.
“Silly.” Dia forced herself not to laugh but a corner of a smile snuck out.
“Ah,” You bounced dramatically to the opposite chair, “Your face does relax.”
Dia tossed her hair back, rolling her eyes so as to not encourage this friendliness. “You have a home, right? Go and get some clothes.”
“Your mother will never let me back in.” You stated flatly.
Dia thought for a long moment, then smiled and shrugged.
You groaned and threw her head back, “You’re all so cruel.”
“All right, Watanabe, everyone in the family is taller than you are…” As Maki entered the space with that announcement, You dramatically threw a forearm across her forehead. Completely ignoring her, Maki continued “so nothing is even near your size, but here’s a pair of sweats and a t-shirt. There’s a bathroom that way.” Maki tossed a pile of clothes in You’s direction and thumbed in the direction of the hall behind her. Turning to Dia, Maki handed her a much neater stack, “My mother has some casual clothes that seem like they might suit you. There’s a guest suite down that hall if you want to get changed there.”
Dia stood, her arms full of a fuzzy mint, tan and blue check jacquard sweater and a pair of black knit leggings with small slits at the ankles. Very much what her mama would consider casual wear and a little too relaxed for Dia, but not as much as if Maki had raided her own closet. “Thanks.”
Maki nodded. “The driver’s gone to get food. She’ll be back soon.” Maki glanced around the room, “The fire makes it nice here, but we can set dinner out on the table.”
Dia remembered so many nights, her mothers curled up in each other’s arms on a much pinker couch, staring into the fire as music played.
“That’s fine. I like it here.” Dia hugged the pile of clothes a little closer; at least her gandmother's perfume was familiar, berries and pale flowers and a clear musk, “I am a little cold though.”
“Mama’s got a shirt jacket somewhere.” Maki swivelled, “I’ll find it.”
Dia found herself wishing she’d stayed in the hospital room. This situation, here at home, but everything and everyone just a step not right, was becoming too disconcerting and she could feel not a head but a whole body ache starting. Maki, her eyes so kind, so watchful but without the deep warmth of maternal concern Dia was used to. Maki might not be the most demonstrative of parents, Dia and Ruby had Nico for that, but Dia’s first glance had met those loving eyes and she had drawn comfort from them since. Passionately perceptive, fiercely stubborn, endlessly generous; everything Dia had hoped to grow up to emulate. But here, Dia was a stranger, Maki was preoccupied with other concerns, and puzzlement flashed across amethyst more often than benevolence. It was going to be a full body headache, Dia thought, reaching a hand to rub her eyes, forgetting she had an armful of clothes, her knees suddenly failing, and You was right there, in a ridiculously large white shirt with black ink kanji that slid off her shoulders and sweats she was keeping up with one hand. The other seemed to be keeping Dia up. How silly.
“What did you do?” Maki’s voice sounded distant even as it echoed angrily around the room. Dia tried to blink, but her eyes wouldn’t open, sleep suddenly sounded perfect as she felt herself being eased down to the couch.
“I came back and she was so pale…”
“She said she was cold.”
“Is that a symptom?”
The voice that wasn’t Mama’s, what was her name again, Legs, You, right, Dia rambled to herself, You had squeaked with worry, that was nice but Dia was fine, she didn’t need any help, just a nap.
###
Hanamaru smiled at Yoshiko sprawled gracelessly over a chaise at the back of the bookstore. As soon as the fallen angel had returned to a comfortable place, the time displacement lag took over and Yoshiko had proven how affected by mortal failings she was now. But the snoring was cute, and the way her midnight hair splayed out against the warm red of the chair reminded Hanamaru of nights when her wife had had some energy left and Hanamaru could remind her of heavenly pleasures other than the celestial.
With a giggle, followed by a sigh, Hanamaru plugged in the refilled electric kettle. No sense remembering those scenes, until Yoshiko had a chance to recuperate. And then, there would probably still be issues to sort out related to the displaced Dia before they truly had time to themselves again
How could Hanamaru help? Too used to Yoshiko’s refusal to admit she needed assistance, Hanamaru realized this, while Yoshiko was safe in a restful oblivion, was the perfect time to do her own research. Perhaps there were some answers to be found in the future. As the tea kettle bubbled, a bright blue light flashing in the darkened room, Hanamaru moved to the locked cabinet, hidden in a jumble of seemingly random bookshelves. Time for her to consult the Book Of Riko, to see if prophecy held any answers someone less impulsive than Yoshiko could puzzle out.
A/N: Howdy.Cats and furniture have been moved; still trying to get back into some form of routine. How's your October? Any Halloween plans? We're doing scary stories and snacks (probably not scary) by fireside next weekend for our next theatrical adventure. I might read some bits of Dracula. 'Tis the season ; )

One More Time As If We Planned It by wreckingtomlinson
“Harry,” Louis whines the moment Harry’s in earshot. “Did you hear the busker who just left?”
“Could hear him a little from the bakery. He sounded like your type.”
Louis hates that Harry knows his type already. “He bought chocolate from Zayn and now they’re going to fall in love and have beautiful, talented babies.”
“Aw, it’s okay,” Harry says, patting Louis on the back before stealing a burnt bit out of the bag to munch on. “You’ll see him again.”
~
or, Alex is a street musician, Louis hates his job, and Venmo brings them together.

We Would’ve Happened All Along by justyrae
It's been no secret that he'd one day marry a fellow royal. He always knew this day would come and as the years passed by that drew him ever closer to his twenty-first birthday, it seemed to turn into more of a reality than a distant dream. Niall thought he'd one day wake up and have it all figured out; that he'd understand the intricate workings of an arranged marriage and no longer have any questions about it.
That day hasn't come yet and Niall's starting to think it never will.

You Don’t Care About Me (One More Night) by lululawrence
“Nick. You’re into guys. What should I do?”
Nick snorted. “You think just ‘cause I’m gay, I know what you should do?”
Louis blinked at him and Nick admired his eyelashes against his will. “Well. Kind of, yeah.”
“That is not how this works,” Nick said. “Besides, it’s not like you can just go and suck someone’s dick to be sure you like it the way I did. You’re too famous to try it my way.”
Louis’ expression changed to one of awe. “That’s how you figured it out? You sucked some random’s dick?”
Nick shrugged. “Yeah. Basically. I mean, I knew for pretty damn sure before that, mind you, but that did solidify the matter for me.”
“I need to suck a dick,” Louis said, turning to look at the wall of Nick’s room.
“You could suck mine, if it would help,” Nick offered before he could stop himself.
Or the one where Louis pines for Harry and Nick helps ease his way into figuring himself out through a friends with benefits sort of arrangement. Things quickly turn complicated.

All Pressed Up In Black And White by HazHas4Nips
He’s gotten used to seeing Liam in the comfort of their own flat, dressed down in sweats for a night in or wearing something simple yet sleek for their weekly bar nights with Niall and Harry.
It’s not like Louis has— or ever could— forget how sexy Liam is, but he’s still thrown off seeing him right now, sitting behind his desk, his round glasses perched atop his nose and his suit jacket straining slightly whenever his broad, strong shoulders move.
“Babe,” Liam says with a soft smile as he stands up behind his desk. “Aren’t you supposed to be at work? Did we have plans?” Kicking the door shut, Louis rushes towards Liam, dropping the bag of take-out unceremoniously atop Liam’s desk and shoving Liam harshly back into his chair.
Although Liam’s bigger than Louis, he allows himself to be shoved until his legs hit the chair and he’s shoved into a sitting position. Louis stares intensely down at Liam, gulping audibly as he takes in his suit, which does little to mask Liam’s chiseled body.
Louis and Liam were unlikely friends and even unlikelier lovers, but even if others don't understand their dynamic, it's perfect for them.

Something In That Flashing Light by PigSlay
Before he completely hits the ground, somebody who was behind him catches him. “Wow, thanks.” As he turns around to look at the person who helped him up, his heartbeat accelerates. The perfectly chocolate brown eyes, the eyelashes that look too perfect to not be make-up, and the tattoos up and down the arms. If he hadn’t already almost fallen once, he’d be falling again probably.
“Uh… No problem,” the person says. Louis notices in their other hand they have a Polaroid camera. How retro. “It’s not retro. Lots of people are still buying Polaroid cameras in this day and age.”
Louis hadn’t realized he had said that out loud but now that he has, he wants to continue. “Lots of people are still buying Vinyl and record players but that doesn’t make those any less retro.”
(A Zayn/Louis fic based on Polaroid by Jonas Blue, Liam, and Lennon Stella)

‘Arrow’ Post-Finale Media Roundup
How the Arrow finale said goodbye to Emily Bett Rickards' Felicity, teased 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' (Entertainment Weekly)
Overwatch just signed off on Arrow (hopefully, for now).
Emily Bett Rickards’ run as tech-genius Felicity Smoak came to an end in Monday’s season 7 finale, as the actress is leaving the show ahead of its eighth and final season. Not only did the finale give Felicity an emotional send-off, though, it also planted some major seeds for the Arrowverse’s next crossover, “Crisis on Infinite Earths.” Here’s how it all went down (We’ll have a full recap later tonight):
Emily Bett Rickards Says Goodbye to Felicity Smoak in Season 7 Finale of ‘Arrow’ (US Weekly)
So long, Overwatch! Emily Bett Rickards bid farewell to her beloved role as Felicity Smoak during the Monday, May 13, season 7 finale of Arrow, titled “You Have Saved This City.”
TV Line - Emily Bett Rickards Exits Arrow: How the Season Finale Wrote Out Felicity — Plus, Oliver's Future Fate Revealed!
Arrow gave Felicity’s portrayer Emily Bett Rickards not one, but two emotional exits during Monday’s Season 7 finale.
'Arrow' Says Goodbye to Felicity and Reveals Oliver's Crossover Bargain in Season 7 Finale (ET Online)
Arrow said goodbye to a beloved character on Monday's finale, as actress Emily Bett Rickards exited the show after seven seasons as Team Arrow's tech mastermind Felicity Smoak. But Felicity's emotional departure posed a whole new series of questions, calling back to this year's Elseworlds crossover and looking ahead to what may be coming in next year's multi-show crossover event.
‘Arrow’ Season 7 Finale: Emotional Farewell For Emily Bett Rickards (Deadline)
Game of Thrones isn’t the only series counting down to its big finish with a nasty war between Queens, plenty of long-lost sibling drama an uncommon  level of commitment to both archery and earth tones. That’s right, there’s also Arrow, the bullseye center of the CW’s shared superhero mythology (aka, the Arrowverse) which has spread across space and time in more ways than one. Arrow and its sister shows — The Flash, Supergirl, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, and the long-gone Constantine — have collectively aired 461 episodes to date and effectively expanded the Arrowverse canon with every single installment. More is one the way, too, with Batwoman premiering in the fall. Taken all together, it’s a somewhat staggering achievement and one that no one foresaw when Arrow notched its first episode in October 2012.
Here's How 'Arrow' Said Goodbye To Felicity Smoak During The Season 7 Finale (Just Jared Jr.)
We said goodbye to Felicity Smoak on Arrow last night in one of the best season finales ever.If you haven’t watched the episode, we highly suggest you skip past this post right now, because we’re going to go into everything that happened.

Fics are ordered first by fandom, then by word count from smallest to largest.
***
Established Protocol by @ialwayscomewhenyoucall
Doctor Who || ten x rose || Teen & up || No major warnings apply || 804 words || Complete
Summary: "I know our situation isn’t normal, but Rose, I’m just--” He closes his eyes, and there’s that frustrated sound again. “I’m just trying to do things properly. Please.” Rose’s eyes go wide with realization. He’s courting me.
Other tags: first (real) kiss, so much fluff

These Blessed Candles of the Night by @ialwayscomewhenyoucall
Good Omens || Aziraphale x Crowley || Teen & up || No major warnings apply || 1,104 words || Complete
Summary: Crowley gets up on an elbow, facing Aziraphale in the starlight. Taking off his sunglasses, he peers into the angel’s eyes. “Aziraphale, are you trying to get rid of me?” Aziraphale starts. “What? No! I never!” He looks down, suddenly very interested in the weave of the blanket underneath them. Nearly too soft to be heard he says, “Quite the opposite, actually.”
Other tags: fluff and angst, post canon, first kiss
***
Drive by @ialwayscomewhenyoucall
Good Omens || Aziraphale x Crowley || Teen & up || No major warnings apply || 1,174 words || Complete
Summary: Back at the car, Aziraphale’s face lights up with sudden inspiration. “Do you think I could, ah, drive?” Crowley’s face remains unreadable. The sunglasses help with this, of course, but he’s become formidable at schooling his features over the millenia. “Drive?” he repeats. “The Bentley?” “You always make it look like so much fun. And it’s been such a lovely day…”
Other tags: post-canon, fluff

Warming Up by @pherryt
marvel || Winterhawk (clint barton/Bucky Barnes) || Teen & up || No major warnings apply || 45,469 words || Complete
Summary: The last thing Clint expected when SHIELD went down and he had to make his way to his safehouse was to find the Winter Soldier already using it. No, maybe the last thing he expected was for all his survival instincts to say screw it, and let him stay. This couldn't possibly go wrong, could it?
Other tags: safehouse, Implied Tony/Steve, Brainwashing, post winter soldier, deaf!cllnt, PTSD, Nightmares, hurt comfort, bed sharing, tub sharing, Cuddle for Warmth, some violence but not too graphic, First Kiss, Low Self Esteem, Misunderstandings, hurt!Clint, First Aid, Running Away, Artist!Steve, mild to moderate hypothermia, Snowed In, Clint's farm, Pining, Mutual Pining, brief reference to past/implied child abuse

Drops of Kisses by FormidablePassion
Supernatural || Castiel/Dean Winchester || General || No major warnings apply || 100 words || Complete

Other tags: Drabble, Profound100 Challenge, pb100, Storm, Rain, Implied Sexual Content

Carry You Through by FormidablePassion
Supernatural || Rowena MacLeod/Sam Winchester || Explicit || No major warnings apply || 1,570 words || Possible additions in the future currently complete
Summary: “Want to see those beautiful eyes shine.” She crouched down and kissed him softly. “Oh Samuel.” He swallowed her words as she fed him more kisses. He learned quickly that Rowena’s love was like a drug, he couldn’t get enough. She was fierce with it, she always took care of him in whatever way he desired or needed. Rowena always knew what Sam needed.

An Abundance of Grace by @ialwayscomewhenyoucall
Supernatural || Dean x Castiel || Teen & up || No major warnings apply || 3,487 words || WIP
Summary: “Dean. Dean. Come on man, talk to me. What’s going on? Where’s Cas? Did he do something?” At the sound of the angel’s name Dean’s head snaps up, his eyes finally focused. “It wasn’t...It was me.” Dean’s voice is rough and angry, but Sam can see the defeat in the slope of his shoulders and the way his fingers still find their way to Cas’s initials on the table. Dean closes his eyes. “I told him I love him.” Sam gasps, but before he can speak Dean goes on. “I told him I love him, and he disappeared.”
Other tags: angst, first kiss, misunderstandings, angelic grace, wings
