    Summary

    Luck and likeability are both valuable traits in a superior officer. A likeable superior is easy to follow; a lucky one won’t get you killed.

    “And, uh... Tristan, if you want to... ‘visit a friend’ too, that’s fine? I’m not your boss.”

    More important, however, is the ability to take charge and make hard decisions.

    “I wouldn’t be so quick to denounce your authority, Commander. If you do, Arbiter Rao may feel he has a responsibility to no longer tolerate the continued presence of traitors and malefactors on this vessel- and I would prefer to avoid removing a familiar variable from the Equation unless absolutely necessary.”

    Unfortunately for Commander Lane Perry, a surplus of the former is not an adequate substitute for an absence of the latter.

    Summary

    "Ten years in a cryo-pod, and she fell in love with the most unsuitable man in the galaxy. Who didn't even notice her as a woman."

    Arbiter Tristan Rao is order, law, and judgment incarnate. The Commander is chaos, pragmatism, and survival. He is her tank, her critic, and the source of a furious, secret yearning that she buries deep. He is also, completely and utterly oblivious to the torturous effect he has on her.

    Summary

    You're five the first time a knife is put in your hands. A man who never bothered to give you a name tells you how to hide it. How to use it to defend another. How to use it to take your own life should you fail.

    You're six, then seven. The other boys your age run in the streets playing games together. You've never spoken to any of them. Your go with the man who isn't your father to a funeral for a man who wasn't your brother. A woman gives your not-father a knife identical to the one you've now carried for years. Your not-father tells you today is a day of pride. Your not a brother fulfilled his purpose without his blade ever having to taste his own blood.

    You see the body through the throne rooms doors. It looks like a marble statue. Bleach white and perfectly still where it lays at the foot of the King.

    You're ten the day you meet your purpose. Another boy. The adopted son of the thing in the throne room. You will die for him. He looks at you with hate in his eyes the first time you're in the same room as him.

    He tells you to run. He doesn't want you. He doesn't want to be the prince. He hates the King and misses the family he was taken from. He's scared. He doesn't want to kill you.

    Summary

    Terence's knight has changed.

    Without a knight to serve, the young squire is left adrift, nothing left to do but desperately seek answers. Instead, all his search for the truth does is draw him in closer.

    With nowhere else to turn, his hunt for answers begins to border on obsession, and he discovers things he wished he'd never learned.

    Summary

    [Edit 1/12 - Unfortunately, I’m getting busy again with other projects and working on real life stuff so I have to cut it off early. Thank you for reading! Other fics to be updated soonish (hopefully)]

    In order to get myself back into the habit of writing again and force myself to write outside of inconsistent waves of brainrot, every day* of my winter break, I'm planning on doing a warmup exercise:

    Spin a wheel of all the MTAS characters (including my builder Wis) twice, and write a short oneshot (limit 1000 words) involving both of those characters.

    Summary

    Maui is so much taller than she is- her head only reaches part of the way up his chest, he has to bend down to see her eye-to-eye. And he's so much broader, arms thicker around than her waist, legs like tree trunks. Bigger than anyone else she's ever met, and in idle moments Moana wonders if it's because he's a demigod or if it's just him.

    Summary

    In which Maui performs a one man circus for the people of Motonui. He'd do an encore but he's too busy dying of embarrassment over the newest member of the Waialiki tribe.

    Written at the time of the first preview trailer for Moana 2, so it will probably be proven wrong by canon very soon. In the meantime, have some silly fluff.

    Summary

    I loved playing the game so much that I needed to do something with this serious case of post-game hangover. IRL me ADORED Owen, but my builder romanced Logan because it made more sense for her fix-it personality (if anyone can fix Logan, it's Lucy). But Owen deserves his happily ever after too, so I made it happen. Forgive me, this is my first fan fic.

    *A parallel, multi-POV telling of two love stories between two builders and the ones they weren't expecting.

    Enjoy!

    Summary

    Astarion calls Halsin back to Baldur's Gate, saying there is a situation that requires Halsin urgently. On arrival, Halsin finds out that Tav is six months pregnant and furious at him for not letting her go with him post-victory. Now Halsin must mend the damage he accidently created.

    "“Astarion, tell me you didn’t insist on me coming to try and convince me to go to that party. I already told you no.” She was chatting on her way in, smiling but her voice was firm and her hand extended. Astarion winked across the room to Halsin as he slipped the drink he’d prepared into Tav’s waiting hand.
    “Would I ever try to convince you to do something you don’t want to, my dear? Honestly, Halsin, she’s being quite naughty already and she doesn’t even realize you’re here. Shall we tie her up for old time’s sake?” His silvery eyebrows arched and Astarion’s mouth rose in a smug smirk. The effect was really quite lovely, watching Tav and Halsin come to terms with what was happening. "

    Summary

    “I am going to die,” Gale whispers into the darkness, then again, directly at her sleeping form. “I truly am going to die.”

    The words don’t feel quite real as they linger in the air. He shifts closer and rests his hand on the warm curve of her cheek.

    “Tell me that we will find another way. You never stopped believing we could fix this, even when I thought I had exhausted every other possibility. Say that you can— please.”

    He’d bore witness to the miracles she could perform first hand: commanding a devil to fall on his own sword, pulling an undead dragon from the sky, burning the very God of Death to cinders– why would it be such a foolish thing to hope she could stop this as well?

    He leans closer, stopping but a breath from her face.

    "I can't do it. I'm not ready."

    Summary

    Echo has lived her life tucked away in the forests of Tethir, learning magic through the pulse of nature and the songs of creation. She's good with magic, but not people, which isn't really a problem until she's scooped up by mind flayers and has to get along with six strangers lest they all share a tentacle-y doom. And she manages to get along with most of them -- but then there's Gale of Waterdeep. Despite a terrible first impression, she finds he is actually much kinder than all the mansplaining would suggest.

    This is a series of relationship scenes about my weird little mushroom hermit, a wizard who shows compassion and arrogance really can coexist, and how academic rivalry is like first base for wizards.

    Spoilers for the entire main plot and Gale's romance
