Summary
tell me about the dream where we pull the bodies out of the lake
and dress them in warm clothes again
Laurent de Vere has developed a routine: work five days a week, sleep in Jord's spare room, and return to his Uncle's one-bedroom apartment for the weekend. He doesn't expect change to run into him on the street—in the form of an FBI agent masquerading as a local cop, who just so happens to be investigating the case that Laurent has been living in for a decade. Damen becomes an unexpected ally and friend, and when Laurent's world is thrown into unexpected and irreversible turmoil, he has to decide whether or not he's willing to sacrifice what's most important to him in order to keep Damen by his side.

Summary
Laurent reaches for a notepad to write down the man's potion order, and glances around for a pen. He’d seen at least four lying on the counter before he’d opened this morning, but Nicaise’s Petunia chews through cheap ballpoints like catnip, and there’s nothing Laurent can do to stop her. He sighs in frustration, glancing up to apologize for the delay just in time to see the customer pull a pen from the empty space in front of him. He squints at it blearily, running a hand over the stubble on his jaw, before offering it to Laurent.
Okay. Magic professor. Laurent can work with that.Or: Five times Laurent regrets owning a magical wares shop, and one time he really doesn't.

Summary
Victor steps onto the gangway behind his mother and father, letting his ears fall deaf to their idle Russian chatter, and looks up at the ship, basking in her shadow. As his feet touch soft, velvet-red carpet, he tries very hard not to feel like the Titanic is his prison ship; dragging him to America, to his perfectly-planned future in chains, kicking and screaming with every last inch of his dying will.
Yuuri and Victor board the Titanic having never crossed paths—Yuuri had won his tickets in a last-minute game of cards, Victor had boarded as the first-class son of a business tycoon, destined to inherit his father's millions. The last thing they expect is to be caught up in each others' lives, and to become desperately entangled in a love affair that threatens to ruin them both. -

Summary
The sound of photo paper shuffling has faded, and the professor is standing in the front of the room with her hands clasped in front of her, half a smile tugging at the corner of her lips.
“Turn to the person sitting next to you,” she says, rich voice reverberating throughout the room. “Introduce yourself, if you haven’t yet, because this is who you’re going to be doing your next project with.”
Emile hasn’t stopped looking at him. Nicaise lets his eyes dart back up to his smile, to the dimple on his left cheek, and feels his cheeks flush again for an entirely different reason.

More Landmarks, Less Landmines by laurxnts, vannes
Fandom: Captive Prince - C. S. Pacat, Yuri!!! on Ice (Anime)
11 Dec 2016
Summary
This is an AU set in the Yuri on Ice universe involving a lot of the Captive Prince characters too in which the six of them are all close friends, all figure skaters (more or less), and spend a ridiculous amount of time in each other's company forming what is probably the strangest makeshift adoptive family ever.
This series is basically going to be a bunch of non-linear one shots written by Alex or Emma, with the occasional multi-chapter plot fic thrown in. we’ll clarify in the author’s notes of each fic the relative time periods, because there’s going to be a lot of jumping around for character and relationship studies. Each fic can be read as a standalone with the basic principle that it is set in the universe of the six of them being a friendship group. Kind of like how you can watch a random episode of a sitcom and still follow it.
Disclaimers: this fic series won't be 100% feel good (although it will have a Lot of happiness), it won't erase the canonical child abuse in Captive Prince, homophobia, mental illness, or the political states of some countries. Nothing will be fetishized, everything will be dealt with well, and Everything will be warned accordingly at the beginning of fics and in the tags.

Summary
The truth was they had been friends. Three months is a long time to spend with someone, day after day, sharing meals and weary hours. At the time, Jiang Cheng really didn’t have anyone else and neither did Lan Wangji. It wasn’t only the search that bound them, but the desperation as well: that there might be some mercy in the world left for the two of them. That out of everyone else they’d lost, Wei Wuxian at least should live.

Summary
He’d thought, in Yueyang, that they’d seen something in each other, something familiar. That maybe they’d recognized something in him. But it’s been many years, and many things have happened since, and he’s guessed wrongly at other people’s hearts before. Lan Wangji looks back down at the table, at his steaming, bitter tea. He’ll beg if he has to.

a story about nothing in particular by relationshipcrimes

Summary
Good stories end. In fact, good stories quickly become bad stories when they don’t know when to quit; it’s half the reason why Proud Immortal Demon Way had become so insufferable by the end. Well, Shen Qingqiu knows when his story is over. Mai Gu Ridge is a distant memory and he and Luo Binghe are married. There’s nothing more to say. In fact, he wouldn’t dare having character development this late in the story—if Proud Immortal Demon Way had had an epilogue, then Shen Qingqiu is firmly in the epilogue now. Everything’s been resolved. And since all the related plot threads were resolved in the main storyline, any good epilogue is a story about nothing in particular, and therefore not worth reading at all.

Summary
Tucked behind the Emperor's golden throne, there is a prince who is a god who is an heir who is a calamity who is no one, and he crawls on the path of war with only no one to keep him company.
Or: canon divergence in which Xie Lian does break at the end of Book 4 and White No Face gets exactly what he wanted.
