Summary
Kaveh is no stranger to the desert. He has been running from himself all his life, and the desert knows that better than any person could. His spiraling inevitably leads to the championship and back to the desert. It must be destiny. He is prone to making self-destructive decisions, and this is no exception. He has always been a painful thing to witness, but no one can pull him from a curse he's placed upon himself, no pity can ever be his salvation. You can only lead a horse to water, the horse must choose to drink or die of thirst.
There are no rules that govern when or how a life ends. There is no procedure to finality beyond its ubiquity. Naïve child, you, too, will fall to dust. The desert is a graveyard and one day your bones will join the sand.
or: love, forgiveness, the things we don't say, and the merciless seas of sand

Summary
It's the first winter after Pitch's defeat. Jack is happy, he's not alone anymore, and his memories are gradually returning. But when a treasure hunt gone wrong puts Jack and Jamie in danger, flinging them through time and space, they find themselves on an island neither of them have heard of before. Jack's first priority is to get Jamie home safe, but Berk's inhabitants - human and otherwise - are certainly not making it easy.
Knowing they will leave Berk and the Vikings behind as soon as they know how to, Jack is not going to risk the pain of growing close to any of these people (or dragons, for that matter). But Hiccup Horrendous Haddock, wearing his heart on his sleeve, doesn't seem to want to take the hint.

Summary
There was no clock in view of his cell. Nothing to indicate when June 4th ticked over to June 5th, but he knew. He had been staring at his left hand since the sun had gone down, wondering if maybe the Dark Mark would render him unworthy of a soulmate.
The moon shined through his meager, barred window, and he felt it before he saw it. A tug at the base of his left pinky finger. Gentle, soft. He swallowed thickly and looked, the cord wrapping around his pale, thin, bony finger looked nearly black in the moonlight. It trailed off lazily, disappearing beyond the bonds of his cell in the general direction of his soulmate.
He wrapped his left hand to his chest, shuddering. He wondered what kind of miserable person would be stuck with someone like him. He feared rejection. Or maybe he'd be sent to Azkaban for life and never have the chance to meet them. Beneath it all, a tiny and terrifying flicker of hope, that maybe there was still good in him.

Summary
“Omi, was it?” And there’s the voice that Sakusa so desperately wishes he could ignore. He turns to meet the catcher’s gaze anyway.
“Kiyoomi. I prefer Sakusa.”
“Right, Omi. Ya pitch?”
“According to my contract.”
“Listen,” Atsumu adjusts himself once more so he’s relaxed along the chair rather than sitting on the cushion properly—legs again propped onto the armrest, “I’m gonna be yer catcher nine times outta ten and I love this game. We can both at least agree that a workin’ relationship would be beneficial for the both of us.”
***
finally called up to the majors, kiyoomi is thrilled to be playing baseball just as he always dreamed. until he realizes that playing at this level includes playing nice with miya atsumu—baseball's walking media circus. surely the media couldn't be that wrong about the hot-head catcher, right?

Listen I don't know anything about baseball, I bothered my baseball knowledgeable partner through this whole fic. It was wonderful. They're great, they're adorable, they deserve each other. I'm glad they get to be happy for 100k words with only like very minor angst.
