Summary
Trapped in the sky and his second-worst fear, Caleb had almost – almost – managed to content himself with watching the love of his life live hers as she saw fit, even if that meant tolerating her relationship with her mysterious new boyfriend. At least, that's what he'd convinced himself... until the day she strode onto that Fleet airstrip.
Now that she's within reach once more, Caleb is determined to never let her go again.
What he doesn't account for, however, is his own unexpected history with said boyfriend, and Sylus' firm belief that there are always more solutions than there are problems...
Or: The three of them find out that love is not a finite resource, and Sylus gets a puppy to match his kitten.

In the streets of a quaint coastal town, there's a marine biologist, plagued by nightmares, who is determined to uncover the ocean's secrets. To reveal its world of wonders and the strange connection between them.
Yet – as any sailor worth his salt could tell you – the sea's as fickle and jealous as she is nurturing. All who seek her mysteries must, one day, pay her price.
So, when a warning goes unheeded, misfortune falls quite literally: in the form of a malfunctioning submarine inexorably sinking...
Nothing, no biology course, can prepare for what waits at the bottom.
Or: an eldritch siren!Rafayel x marine biologist fic.

Summary
There's always that one couple... They're both dazzling, intelligent people who mysteriously lose all their brain cells in each other's presence. Where both of them are loved and adored, until both of them are in the same room together - then, everything is absolute chaos. Yeah, Margot Lynch and Satoru Gojo is that couple.
But their relationship defies both culture and calculation, and the pressures of Jujutsu society's expectations are exponential. The two must move towards each other continuously, or risk being separated...
Forever.

Summary
Reciprocal Determinism (n.): "a the theory set forth by psychologist Albert Bandura which maintains that the environment influences behavior, behavior influences the environment, and both influence the individual, who also influences them."
Monsters aren't born, but created.
For Hisoka, power and bloodshed are the default, at least until he walks into Dr Nacyri Fie's office. In their ensuing game of calculation, emotion, manipulation, and vulnerability, the winner takes all.
But when facing an opponent who wields a new and unusual set of cards - ones of kindness, respect, and boundaries - how will he choose to play?
When the game is reversed and winning becomes losing, who truly has the upper hand?
And when that hand stretches out towards him, will he grasp hold of it?
Will he gamble on trust and safety, or doom her as well?

Summary
You’ve known Rafayel long enough to gather three things.
The first is that you’ve never seen him paint a portrait. More often than not he submits himself to the abstract, to smears of color that, according to him, never fully capture what he feels but at least get close enough. Sometimes, he allows himself a landscape here and there. But never a portrait. Never a person. No matter how much someone offers to pay him.
The second is that he refuses to wake up at dawn if he can help it. He’s never told you why. Just that there’s something about the sound of the morning bells that he hates.
The third is that there is a door in Mo Art Studio—just one—that Rafayel has never opened.
———
Or: The manifestations of love as history, art, civilization, and the sheer horrors of yearning.

Summary
He studies the fracture between want and ruin. She’s already halfway across.
Lena Park is a PhD student who doesn’t believe in love—only synaptic misfires and behavioral conditioning. Emotions are data. Intimacy is learned. And desire? That’s just dopamine in a loop.
But Dr. Caleb Xia is the loop she can’t break.
What begins as academic interest twists into a darkness that grows more treacherous the moment their eyes meet. He's brilliant. Controlled. Dangerous. A man who designs experiments to unravel the human mind—and maybe, just maybe, to unravel himself. Lena sees through his clinical detachment. So she steps into his lab and offers herself up. Willing, curious, and entirely unafraid.
What follows isn’t science. It’s a game of stimulus and surrender. Of sleepless nights, artificial affection, and twisted intimacy masked as research. He pushes her limits. She stares him down. They take each other apart. Quietly, surgically, obsessively.
This is a study in power, control, and the kind of mutual fixation that leaves scars you never want to heal. She wants to see how far he’ll go, and he wants to see when she’ll break.
But the real question is—who’s conditioning who?

Summary
Ferrying passengers and cargo between the mainland and the outlying islands is your family's livelihood. Life at sea holds its surprises, yet the routines remain reassuring — docking and departing, tourist antics, more docking and departing...
And there's the seal of course — the local celebrity trailing the ferry each day as though he's on the payroll. You think it might have been brought about by giving into his every whim and accidentally becoming his favorite person to be around in the process. But who would’ve guessed the truth, that he's actually a selkie who's spent years shadowing you, believing himself to be escorting his chosen bride all along?
