    Bronte isn't sure joining the Council is the right idea when half the Lost Cities seem to hate him, but when a certain Councillor convinces him to give it a try, it leaves him wondering why he cares so much.

    Fintan couldn't help but be attracted to Bronte, really. But as the lines between attraction and love blur he has to fight to keep his emotions in check, all while being visited by a black-cloaked figure who keeps trying to recruit him for a cause he's having trouble ignoring anymore.

    Summary

    Ethan grew up the golden boy of his father’s small lesson ranch—obedient, hardworking, and silent about the bruises that life left behind. Now grown, he keeps his head down, content to serve others and lose himself in the steady rhythm of caring for horses. Love was never in the cards, especially not with another man. Cowboys weren’t supposed to love cowboys. That’s what Ethan was taught, and what he believed.
    Then Wade walked in—tattooed, all quiet confidence and calloused hands. He carried his scars like proof of survival, and for the first time, Ethan saw what it might mean to live instead of just exist. Between them, something fragile begins to take shape: long days in the barn, quiet nights at Wade’s kitchen table, laughter that shakes something loose inside Ethan, and a kind of touch that makes the silence of his life a little easier to bear.
    But family names are hard to wash off, and in a town where tradition weighs heavier than truth, Ethan has to decide whether to keep living the life he was raised for—or risk everything for the one he wants. With Wade beside him, he just might find the courage to start over, build a home of his own, and finally live as the man he was never allowed to be.

    Summary

    Sent to the frontlines of a battle never meant for your pitiful existence before being brutally shut down by the nation you wished to dutifully serve, you find yourself abandoned and forgotten by the society you had once been a promising part of.

    Noxus favoured the strong and shunned the weak - a concept you knew too well as your fate was to live at the very bottom of the Noxian food chain, meaninglessness clinging to your every word.

    What an insult it was then, that the man who basked in the glow of the worthy, dared to revisit your disgraced being, a red hand offered to an unwelcomed heart as you flee from your previous life's clutches. Refusing to let the Grand General dictate your life any further, you begin an upward battle against all odds, reclaiming what is rightfully yours. So goes the plan - even if a certain nobleman disagrees.

    Summary

    “Are you certain this'll work? I mean, I know Alfred is still a bit sour with me over our whole... dispute a few years back. Clearly he needs more time. And Matthew… Matthew probably wants nothing to do with me. You’ve always been his favorite dad, hell, you’re all of their favorites. How do you do it? Surely I can do the same!"
    In which Arthur can't help but feel guilt for neglecting his children (at least, his favorites) and plans an impromptu movie night in hopes of bonding time. Francis desperately wants his family to get along, at least once. Alfred is Alfred, and Matthew simply craves attention after being overlooked (for the past decade or so). The result is... a result.
    ---
    TLDR: FACE family shenanigans.. they're neat methinks. also some arthur guilt if ya like that. and old men kissing sorta-kinda.

    Summary

    I am writing to inquire whether you are still available for in-home walks over the holidays. My grandson’s dog will require a reliable walker on the Saturday before Christmas.
    She could clarify that he had the wrong number, politely and efficiently. That would be the sensible, grown-up response. Or... she could… have a little fun. A small, treacherous part of her brain whispered: Where's the harm?
    I’m afraid you’ve got the wrong number. Closest thing I walk these days is from my counter to the oven.
    She hesitated, then added: Your grandson’s dog sounds adorable, though. 11/10 would pet. She sent it before she could second-guess herself. She, in all honesty, would try to pet a wild direwolf, too.
    ---
    A modern AU featuring texting the wrong number,a grumpy politician, a bakery owner, too many fairy lights, and an overdose of cinnamon. I promised something sweet and fluffy after the last time, didn't I? And just in time for Christmas 🎄✨

    Summary

    When the news of a funeral drags Dahlia Johnson back to the sleepy Wyoming town she once called home, she tells herself it's only temporary. After all, she's built a life in New York - one filled with high-rise apartments, demanding clients, and noise loud enough to drown out the past.

    But home has a way of pulling things to the surface. Memories. Regrets. And Joel Miller.

    He's older now. Quieter. Still wearing that same guarded look in his eyes. He was always just a friend of the family. So why does one look from him make her forget what's right and what's allowed?

    In a town where everyone knows your name, where whispers travel faster than wildfire, Dahlia finds herself caught in something she can't quite name.

    A touch too lingering.
    A stare too loaded.
    A connection neither of them dares admit.

    But rules were made to be broken... and some desires? They never stayed buried for long.

    Summary

    The Multiverse is vast and nigh infinite, possibilities, concepts, the very function of a world's reality only limited by sheer creativity.

    Within this realm, Dreamtale exists as an enigma, plucked from another Multiverse entirely. The tragedy of it's Story forced to continue beyond it's Endings, for it forced the concept of Balance into the Multiverse's rules. Now open-ended, the only two Characters wanders throughout the Multiverse as one of it's Outcodes.

    Dream broke out of stone to one colorful and curious Inkblot, so much to comprehend for someone so small. But alive nonetheless.

    Nightmare woke up freshly dead.

    Au: Get it? Cuzhe died lmao

    There's no real plot to this fanfic! Just some standalone AUs that have stuck in my mind every now and then- Since there aren't any FaceTube Fanfics on this platform, I'm leaving it here as a personal project, not something that's really important to read :'3

    Тож так, думаючи сьогодні про те, що вдома його чекає трьохденне рагу і сонна чотирипала зірка, яка розкинулася вздовж всього ліжка, згрібши собі його подушку, а всі інші скинувши на підлогу, Тай захотів купити для Оуена квіти. Не тому, що любить його і не тому, що той заслужив. А просто так. Бо Оуен в нього є.

    Summary

    Higuruma did his best to be subtle about his staring, but he did enjoy tracing the odd lines and whorls of discolored scars on Nanami’s face and neck with his eyes. The most he knew was that Nanami was in an explosion of some kind. He was not a soldier, firefighter, or convicted arsonist (he’d Googled). And that whoever had done his reconstructive surgeries had either loved their job or loved the man himself with how carefully they’d put him back together.

    Higuruma really wanted to know what those scars felt like, oddly enough—purely out of his own sick curiosity, of course, but he would never ask. His favorite flaw he could find was how the corner of his mouth on the left side was twisted into a permanent ghost of a smile, which hardly suited the finance professor and entertained Higuruma to no end.
