Summary
Rumi is still not a hundred percent sure why she agreed to this objectively ridiculous “tutoring” session.
When it comes down to it, she thinks she's mainly doing this for Zoey, because Zoey is the only kind, genuine person at this whole damn school, and Rumi wants to help her. Zoey is absolutely hopeless with boys, and she needs help with her confidence before she tries to date one. Rumi sort of…didn’t mention the fact that all her own experience is with girls, but she’s pretty sure Zoey already knows. Kissing is a gender-neutral skill anyway, and Mira is going to handle the other part (thank god).
It’s definitely not because Mira made intense eye contact with her in the bathroom mirror last week while applying lipstick way too slowly. Or because of that time Mira coolly demolished the boy who was trying to score points by talking shit about Rumi at lunch.
Nope, it’s definitely not any of that. Rumi just wants to be a good friend to Zoey. A best friend. A friend who has never once been paralyzed by the desire to find and kiss every single one of Zoey’s freckles.

Summary
What Sasuke Uchiha wants is an indeterminate EC-02 Step 2 position with the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation that offers a decent salary, health benefits, paid vacation, and a manager who won't break all his Excel spreadsheets. What he gets is Naruto Uzumaki, an improbably attractive and unbearably annoying co-op student who eats way too much instant ramen and doesn't understand that "casual Friday" doesn't mean varsity sweatpants.

Summary
After Penelope falls out with Eloise over her popular gossip blog, all the Bridgertons cut contact with her. It's the worst thing that has ever happened to her, but after a few months of wallowing, Penelope moves to Scotland and buys a book shop and gets on with her life. It turns out she can live without the Bridgertons and she's happy enough with the new life she's cobbled together. No one knows anything about her here and that's how she likes it: complete and total separation from her life back in London and her old online persona.
That is, until she spots Colin Bridgerton at the coffee shop next door.

Summary
If one did not watch Michaela closely, nothing would have seemed amiss. She smiled, as always, mirthful, as always; but Francesca was watching closely, and she saw that smile freeze, for just half a second, and then suddenly, like a jam jar coming loose after half an hour’s effort, Francesca understood.
“An innate indifference,” she said, “to men.”

Summary
Shin’s waited months for Baylan to tell her his real plans for this mission to Peridea. Now, instead of being let in on the secret, she’s relegated to babysitting their unexpected prisoner—Shin's Jedi nemesis who lands her in trouble before they’ve even jumped to hyperspace. And there’s still three million parsecs to go.
Or, Shin plays warden to a defiant Sabine on their way to Peridea. And then things really go off the rails.

Summary
Ahsoka had brought her to Shatterdome once her body had healed, a long two years of rehab and recovery, and she had pushed herself through simulations and copilot candidates until she had been deemed unsuitable for a return to active duty, too locked into the grief of her lost copilot to let anyone else into the drift with her. Grounded. Useless.
One look at Shin Hati, freshly arrived in Shatterdome to be matched to a new copilot after her uncle and copilot had ascended to a leadership role alongside Ahsoka, with her pale hair and pale skin and pale eyes, angular and striking and unwavering, and Sabine's carefully-constructed equilibrium ruptures into seething, scalding hatred.

Summary
In the end, it had been Gandalf’s decision to allow the second king of the Noldor, returned suddenly from death itself like a fire-eyed messenger of doom, to join their company. Aragorn had at first been in favor of sending him back to Rivendell for Elrond to deal with, but Gandalf had said that for him to be sent back to the land of the living at all was indication enough that he had a part to play in their quest, and Gandalf had had the final say.
Fëanor joins the Fellowship. It goes about as well as you'd expect.

Summary
When her bold plan to hide in her apartment indefinitely fails, Edith Pines finds herself staring down a notice of mandatory domestication. Panicking and searching for more information, she meets Allison -- smart, cute, put-together, and, unfortunately, one of those goddamn brainwashed plant drones. Still, Allison is the only floret who's taken her concerns seriously, and Edith can't help but get a little attached.
Edith learns she's been assigned to Tamarix Aphylla, hypnosis expert and notorious rebel-breaker -- and Tamarix's obedient, entranced little lab assistant is none other than Allison Aphylla, First Floret. Now Edith doesn't just have to resist the Affini, but the siren song of Allison convincing her it's really not so bad to be a brainwashed plant drone...

Summary
“Is this what you want, sweet girl?” he murmurs. “You want to fuck me?”
Rhaenyra moans in response, her head dropping back against the pillow. Daemon smiles, and shifts onto his side. He cups her other breast, caressing softly as he brings his mouth down her nipple. She shivers as his tongue flits out, stimulating the already over-stimulated flesh.
“Is that a yes?” he taunts, in between teasing sucks of her nipple.
Her litany of babbling whispers certainly sounds like yes’s.
“Mm,” he hums. “I think I’d like that. My pretty little wife, fucking me with her big cock.”

If Stephen had a copper for every time he’d accidentally improved diplomatic relations between the Rat and a foreign country by being his usual curious/rather awkward self, he’d have two coppers, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice.
Also how do you say “I love you, I cherish you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you” in sock form?

Summary
There's an odd girl at the back of the throng.
To the casual eye, she looks completely average. She wears the same soft cream and dull yellow uniform of the other girls around her. She is small and slight, and her cheeks are dotted with freckles. Among the other palace girls surrounding her, she blends in perfectly. She could be any girl from any far-flung village of Li.
But her eyes—they are what catch his attention. They are what draw him in.
Or: Snapshots of Jinshi and Maomao, throughout the years--of their scars, their mistakes, and a little red string that endures through it all. An exploration of love, fate, and the choices we make, told in twenty-six parts.

Summary
There’s a discussion to be had about human language failing to create a more inclusive word than "humanity," but you aren’t thinking about that now. Now, as you’re lying on your bedroll and staring up into eyes that burn red in the dying embers of the campfire, all you can think is *Astarion isn’t human.*
There’s still a ghost of his touch along your throat, where his fingers had frozen in the process of- of what, exactly?
“This isn’t what it looks like,” he says, and the silver tongue that’s talked him out of a dozen arrests has apparently deserted him, because this is *exactly* what it looks like.OR: I wanted a fic about what it must be like to have such a genuinely terrifying guy skulking around being gorgeous all the time.
