Summary
The most foolish thing a mortal can do is to fall for a spirit. It’s one of the first things Arthur learned, when, as a child, he listened to the dreadful tales his nursemaid told him. He heard about the girl turned into a chicken and eaten by her unknowing family. He heard of the boy who lost his eyes, his teeth and his ears to his dearest faery friend. He heard of the ones who burned and melted, of the ones who drowned, and of those unlucky enough not to die.
Arthur knows all of those tales by heart. And if one day he was to meet the boy under the rock or the woman who drowned, he would hug them and kiss them on the cheek. He would thank them for the kinship they had unknowingly granted him all those years.
Because there’s only one thing to do when a being like Merlin looks at you the way he does.
Arthur understands this.
And he's ready to let his love devour him.

Summary
Yuuji couldn't help but smile at Megumi. Life had been hard lately. They were grieving and they still needed time to find their footing. But Megumi didn't have any nightmares the night before. And Yuuji had even been able to look at himself in the mirror that morning.
It was a good day, and they were going to make the most of it by shopping for food before heading to their Sensei's place. Because they knew he wasn't eating much these days.
It was okay, though. They had each other.

After everything, Gojo Satoru is still alive. He doesn't really know what to do about that.

Summary
Camelot's children knew one terrible secret: the king's manservant wasn't really human. Well… he wasn't human at all.
Nobody but them was aware of it.
They didn’t even think Merlin had noticed how different he was from everyone else.
But it didn't matter. After all, children are very good at keeping secrets. Especially when those secrets involve petty crimes and magic tricks.

Summary
The wind whispers to those who listen, as do the rain and the worms. They whisper of a foolish king and a merciless deity. They whisper about the slow decay of the world and the rebirth of all things.
They whisper that, during the Great Purge, Uther trapped a being no mortal was ever meant to trap. He bound it in the deepest cave of his kingdom and atop the highest peak of his land.
And the rain whispers: fear not, for only mortals remain bound forever. The seasons will come and go, the world will freeze and the snow will melt. And one day, Emrys will be free once more. Magic will walk the Earth anew.
◊◊ ◊◊ ◊◊
Arthur is in love. Merlin is hurting. And Mordred will free Emrys, no matter the cost.

Summary
When people are desperate they turn to faith. Panem has done a good job creating a truly secular society, stamping out the religions of the past, but nothing can stop new gods from rising.
-
Or: When Gaea curses Percy to live in a world without the gods, he winds up in District 4 and is chosen as tribute for the 70th Hunger Games. From there, everything just kind of spirals.

Summary
“Leonard?” Spock called out. He sounded frail.
McCoy looked at him. The poor man just seemed so tired, so worn down. Whereas McCoy defaulted to anger when he was grieving, Spock was so given to denial that he refused to even visit the place in the cemetery where Jim’s body should have been. They had a bond, Leonard and Spock. A deep one. He could sense the hole in Spock’s heart, a pain he knew would never cease. Not just because Jim was gone, but because of all the words left unspoken. He did what he could, of course, distracting him, being a clown, getting up to mischief, engaging him in banter.
But right now in particular, it was bad. It was real bad. He never should've dragged Spock out for the launch.
“It’s nothing, Spock,” McCoy told him. “Just my mind playing tricks on me, that’s all.”
“Pardon,” a female voice said from behind him. “I believe I would be the nothing you’re looking for.”
----
After the launch of the Enterprise-D, Bones travels back in time to mend James Kirk's broken heart, and falls in love with Spock all over again. Set after Kirk's accident as depicted in Generations, but Kirk is back in chapter 2.

Summary
What if, shortly after vanishing, Discovery had re-appeared, having spent almost a decade in the 32nd century?
Each work in the series is a collection of short stories, each of which has a discrete plot. The overarching plot is of McSpirk getting together, coming out as a triad and as themselves, and using the power of their bond to kick the ass of intergalactic evil. Everyone loves each other so damned much it's disgusting.
Featuring Spooky!Bones and Spock growing past self-loathing to slowly become a happy person. Jim is just Jim (brash, hot-headed, falls in love like a fairytale princess). Nyota Uhura is dainty, femme, a lesbian, and definitely smarter than you. Dr. M'Benga is a frequent supporting character, and is Co-CMO with McCoy. There's a Chief of Security character I created, Henry Rowe, based on the security officer in I, Mudd.
The Disco crew only makes temporary appearances and does not feature in every story. The final installment unpacks how this timeline diverged from Prime, when, and why.
