    Summary

    Gaara headed out to the hallway, hoping to squeeze in a quick toilet break before his next call. He was so busy thinking about what the Kaze customer wanted, that he barely noticed the guy standing between him and the toilets. Not until he almost rammed into him.

    “Oh my gosh, so sorry!” the guy squeaked, jumping out of the way. His accent was so thick. It was almost identical to the one Mabui sported.

    Gaara lifted his head and stared up at him, his eyes immediately zeroing in on the bright orange scarf wrapped around his neck.

    “So sorry,” repeated the guy before Gaara could even say anything. “I was just looking for this pilates place…”

    Summary

    He gasps for breath as he wakes. It’s become something of a routine. The potions given to him be Mereldar’s healers leave him drowsy, but his sleep is restless, his memories of the Dark Heart mutating as he dreams. He takes a few deep breaths as he stares up at the Hallowfall inn’s vaulted ceiling.

    There’s a knock on the open doorway, and a familiar voice calls out, “Khadgar. Is everything alright?”

    Summary

    Clan Heart-Drum bears an ancient curse: to maintain their humanity, they must consume the flesh of their fellow men. Condemned as cannibalistic abominations, members of the clan have been hunted through the eras by jarls, legions, and holy orders alike. Now, only three siblings remain, and each must forge their own path through Skyrim and beyond.

    This story follows Isolga, the eldest, as she seeks a cure for the curse that plagues her. Her journey will take her across Tamriel, through storied cities, shrouded wilds, and ruins that hold more questions than answers. Her efforts will not go unnoticed; the friends who would protect her, the foes who would destroy her, and the figures who would use her curse for their own ends are never too far behind...

    But the greatest danger lies not in the people around her, but in the secrets buried deep within her own blood.

    Summary

    [There’s a shimmer on the horizon, probably a mirage, but it’s as good a direction as any for him to head towards. Is that... a person? Tall, silhouetted by the sun at their back, makes it look like they’re dressed in black. Now he remembers. The cactus didn’t kill him last time, but-

    “Ah,” He sighs, “It’s been a while since I last saw you, my Wu Ming.”

    -it gave him rather vivid hallucinations.]

    Or: Xie Lian is hallucinating and dying in the desert. One of these things is true.

    Summary

    Lloyd Garmadon is not okay.

    Off the back of the trial and his own twisted words, he's hit a new record low. To add insult to injury, something is freaking out Lloyd's new powers, something he can sense far away, but all he has to go on is an intermittent pulse that only he can feel - until his travels send him stumbling into a familiar face. Caught between his own ineptitude, ghosts of the past, and the long-buried emotions she's clawing to the surface, Lloyd has no choice but to pull her into the mystery unravelling around him - because she's been feeling it too.

    Hot on the trail of a Formling hunting party's untimely disappearance, the last thing Akita had expected to find was more trouble, in the convenient form of a migraine-inducing pulse, a missing Merlopian King, and one very familiar uber-blonde idiot determined to get to the bottom of it. And between living up to her reticent family's gruelling expectations and losing herself in the wilderness with a five-second flare from a past life... Akita's pretty sure she knows what she'll choose.

    Or, the post-s4p1 slowburn Lloykita fic absolutely nobody asked for

    Summary

    The year is 5766. Magic is real, true love’s kiss will break any curse, and Senku, having reached the happily ever after of his own personal fairy tale romance, is uncursed, married, and finally finished building a working time machine. As he prepares to retroactively prevent the petrification of humanity and save the world once and for all, he realizes that without the apocalypse, he would never have met his spouse and broken his curse. To ensure that his past self will still encounter his beloved, he makes one more tiny adjustment to the timeline.

    The Senku and Gen of 2019 struggle to accept this romantic gesture: a curse that demands they find true love within two years… or die.

    (This is not a ‘canonical’ sequel to the previous work in this series. That fic has an open ending, with several possible outcomes. This fic is just one of those possibilities, and not necessarily the most likely, best, or worst. I’ve tried to make it readable as a standalone as well as a sequel or remix.)
