    Summary

    “You have a research partner?” He gawks at Lan Zhan. His a-die has always been known for working alone. “Who??”

    “No one important,” Lan Zhan brushes his curiosity off, “eat your food.”

    /or/

    Wei Ying and Lan Zhan are happily married at home and bitter academic rivals anywhere else. Somehow, this breaks the world.

    Summary

    Megumi eyes the papers, heartbeat quickening. He picks up the first one. It’s heavy, thick. Light doesn’t pass through, and the bold title at the top seems to leer at him.

    'Adoption Order', it reads.

    “This looks real,” Megumi says.

    Gojo sips on his lemonade. His blindfold is around his neck, and the sunlight snags against the blue of his eyes. He’s beaming, proud.

    “It is.”

    Something in Megumi's chest explodes. Shatters. The shrapnel guts him, and his hands work against the paper. He tells himself not to rip it, but a fine tear spreads under his fingers.

    “I said to bring fake ones.”

    "Megumi-"

    "I don't want this. I told you I don't want this! What the hell's wrong with you?"

    + + + +

    When Megumi calls Gojo asking for fake adoption papers, the last thing he expects is for him to bring real ones.

    And the last thing Gojo expects is for Megumi to refuse.

    AKA: Megumi refuses to be adopted by Gojo, and the fallout forces them to figure out what they mean to each other.

    Beautiful use of imagery. Would reread again.

    Summary

    “I will not apologize for speaking the truth,” the child says. “However, I regret if that truth has offended you.”

    “Jesus Christ, kid,” Jim mutters.

    “I am not offended,” Spock responds, as blandly as he is able. “I was remiss in casting such hasty judgment upon your guardian.”

    ”Father,” she corrects.

    ”Your father,” he agrees.

    *****

    An academy AU + Tarsus aftermath fic in which James T. Kirk ends up accidentally parentally bonded to an orphaned Vulcan child. When the father/daughter duo enroll in Star Fleet, hijinks ensue (mostly at the expense of Spock’s previously immaculate but quickly deteriorating self-control).

    Winner of the 2025 Philon Award for a novel-length fic (!!!)

    Summary

    No one, it turns out, really knows one another.

     

    (OR: all it takes is a summer-long holiday in Italy, James Potter's teetering mental stability, a secret relationship, friends with benefits, Marlene’s secret, and enough stupidity and insecurity to go around for everything to come crashing down around them.)
