Summary
“Rorikstead is half a week’s ride from here,” he pointed out.
“I lost my horse.”
“You lost it? What? In a bet?”
“To the stomach of a sabrecat. Two sabrecats, if we’re splitting hairs.”
Which had left her no choice but to build a makeshift stretcher from tree branches and Erik’s shield, in order to drag him the rest of the way to Rorikstead. She’d only turned to that when carrying him failed. If she’d kept at that plan, she would’ve died long before she could’ve gotten him to help.
“It’s a week’s walk,” he said.
Astra huffed a sigh. “Do you want me to find you a rolling pin, to add the final touches to this performance?”
****
Being wed to the Dragonborn is no easy thing, especially when fear keeps her from bringing her husband on her travels with him. Vilkas and Astra argue it out. And then they make up - once they're done being idiots.

Summary
To Mira, it didn’t matter how pretty the Saja Boys were or how their music lived rent-free in her head—they had body counts and she wasn’t going to let them lay a single clawed finger on her family. With Rumi struggling and the Honmoon seeping, guess she won’t be spending much time sleeping. Huntrix hunting lions in the dark—it was never gonna be a walk in the park. But no one moves like Mira.
If only her Saja Boys would decide whether they were trying to kill her or kiss her—or at least stop running away long enough for her to kill them. A story about turning demons into guardian spirits. Eventually.

Summary
“Oh? Was it not Pan that sent you out here? Into the jungle, alone?”
“I grew up,” she pointed out, but his words were having an impact, her eye contact faltering and her hands growing distinctly fidgety.
“You did,” Hook tutted and then simpered, inclining his head in sympathy. “Hardly something you could help, nor be blamed for. And yet blame you he did. Did he not?”
--
Hook sets out to manipulate a former member of The Lost Boys in order to gain the upper hand against Peter Pan...and learns the hard way that it's best not to underestimate one's opponent.

Summary
Lark came to the aquarium as a pup. He didn't know who or what he was before his life here in captivity. In his blissful ignorance he grew among the humans that cared for him, the crowds that came to see him. Being a lesser siren, his songs soothed rather than tempted, his instincts not strong enough to produce more than ease and healing upon those who heard him.
It's what had made him so popular.
His tank was open to the air, shallow near the glass where humans of all ages would stand waiting to hear him. Waiting to get splashed on the outside portion of his enclosure. On the inside, it was sealed and sound proof, his songs reserved for those who paid the most to get outside. He didn't mind it. The extra profits meant extra food for him, and good quality water. Or that was his limited understanding of how things worked in his very small world.
Small but comfortable. Till everything changed.

Summary
After an incident at the world-famous Ebott Aquarium, you find yourself placed on a team of staff dedicated to the care of the prize exhibits at the facility; three notoriously aggressive skeleton siren monsters captured in the name of 'research'. An orca with a disturbing record of finding new ways to attempt to drown his keepers, a shark who's excellent at removing whatever stray hands come his way, and a deep-sea octopus whose past (and body count) are hidden behind endless stacks of legal papers. Despite their pattern of brutally murdering their ever-changing team of keepers, they all seem to immediately take a shine to you- a worryingly bright shine. A shine that won't go away, a shine that starts to unnerve you.
However, the longer you work there, the more you see the inner workings of Ebott Aquarium. The more you realise the sirens you're 'caring for' aren't dumb beasts, they're deeply intelligent... they aren't mindlessly aggressive, they've gone insane, locked in those tiny glass cages.
... The more you interact with the sirens... the more you realise their murderous aggression might not be all that misplaced.

"so how do you know papyrus?"
Too embarrassed to admit that you were a party crasher there for free food, you blurted the first thing that came to mind, "Oh, I'm, um, I'm dating his brother! But enough about me, how do you know Papyrus?"
The skeleton snickered, "oh, you didn't know? i'm the brother."

Summary
Sometimes life throws you a curveball. For you, your curveball was going to bed looking like a human, and waking up looking like a monster.
A skeleton monster to be precise.
With the barrier breaking, a large surge of magic descended on the town you live in, and transformed you overnight. Unsure what to do with you, and the others changed, you're ushered into a facility until a monster with similar magic can take you to teach you how to wield the now uncontrollable magic you've been given. After waiting in this place for four years, you'd given up hope that anyone would ever want to take you.
What a surprise for you when you find out that someone does. A lot of someones.

Summary
It's said that every little girl from the tender age of ten when they first receive their soulmate tattoo can't wait to meet their soulmate, the one perfect person destined for them. The only problem is, you weren't every little girl, and you didn't receive just any ordinary soulmate tattoo. From the age of ten you'd had to stare at the words "GET OUT OF MY WAY ALREADY YOU FREAKING NOBODY!", and know that's exactly what your soulmate would think the first time they ever laid eyes on you. That you were just some nobody, and from that moment on you no longer had the desire to meet this soulmate who apparently thought so little of you upon first glance.
But then you do meet him, and he changes everything.

Irascible by CherryValiant

Summary
Irascible - adjective. Having or showing a tendency to be easily angered.
I slipped.
It was an honest mistake: overestimating how wide the bench was and the tread of my boots, my right foot landed on the curved edge and plummeted. I yelped and flailed and tried in vain to catch myself. I squeezed my eyes shut and braced for the impact.
Instead of hard gravel, I hit leather wrapped muscle.
I kept my eyes closed, scrambling to grab fistfuls of his jacket, kicking my legs under me as they slid from the bench. I couldn't see how he'd gotten over the bench so fast - maybe he'd been standing and I hadn't heard it over my own dumbassness - but the sweet, rich scent of him filled my nose, the warmth of his body pressing into my back, the soft grunt of exertion as he helped me stand back up.
"Thanks," I smiled. God, I wanted to see him. He cleared his throat, and even though I was on my own feet again, he still had me in his arms. I felt his fingers pressing into my shoulders. My own hands settled into the crook of his elbows, then, slowly, drifted upward over his biceps. Damn, he felt strong.

Summary
"Bronx?" he scoffed, a question, still kneeling. “Sweetheart, you fuckin’ insult me. Mistakin’ me for that little shithead.”
Gun still firmly at the center of his spine, he sighed and huffed and pushed himself up. He was broader than you originally thought: much, much broader, easily dwarfing you as he rose to his full height. He was at least a head taller, twice as wide, his heavy-set bones covered by a black, fur-lined hoodie over a dark crimson tank-top. The dismal light showed the various scratches along his marrow. He smiled: one sharp canine was glittering gold, the same color as the thin chain that scraped against his exposed collar bones.
You didn’t back down. For a second, neither of you moved: your gun trained at where you guessed his soul would be, his eyelights assessing you.
