Summary
“And here I thought you were just a handsome face.” It took Aang a moment to realise that Katara was talking to Appa and not to him. It took significantly longer for his heart to understand the same thing, and it hammered against his chest with a rapid rhythm. “Such a brave boy.” She looked up at Aang again and added, somewhat shyly, “You’re very brave, too.”
“Oh, I—thank you. So are you.”
He had no idea why he’d said that.
When volunteer search and rescue handler Aang takes Appa to the new vet in town, he doesn't anticipate coming face-to-face with the most beautiful woman he's ever seen. It starts with an awkward appointment and, somewhere along the way, turns into coffee dates and late-night calls.
Then a callout goes wrong. Suddenly, it's not just his heart on the line.

Summary
There was a reason hybrids between human and demon were so rare. Even a pregnancy in a normal human pairing was taxing upon the mother but with a hybrid it was more often than not lethal. Human and demons were never truly meant to breed and for all successful pregnancies there were thousands of deaths, of stillborn or infants born only to die moments later from their conflicting nature or grotesque malformations. Or of purely demonic young eating their way out of their mothers and both dying as a result.
Mundus went through many humans, women abducted to the demon world by his minions, until one survived through the pregnancy long enough to birth a child which could pass for traditional human being. One which was too demonic in appearance was no use- he wanted eyes and ears within the mortal realm. Someone who could slip pass demon repellents and could search without scrutiny into unlocking the seals holding him prisoner. Something that could slip past Sparda's notice and to search, under the radar, for ways to fully manifest into the human world. For all Mundus looked down upon humans he wouldn't dismiss a tool without testing its use first.
You never had a normal childhood.

Summary
Katara did not believe in love at first sight. She was not a hopeless romantic. Or an idiot.
But she did believe in lust. She believed in K-Drama slow-motion cameras and she believed in random romantic music playing at inopportune times. She believed, with all her heart, that she wanted to climb the man walking into her shop right now like he was a tree.
She cleared her throat. The angels stopped singing.
“Hi,” she said. “How can I help you?”OR

Summary
Ochako is a mother on the run- her sole focus is to protect her daughter as she flees her violent & powerful husband. She settles in a small city near the ocean filled with eccentric, quirky, and kind people- the kind of people she had forgotten exist.
Katsuki Bakugo, former firefighter, retired after a severe injury. He’s adjusting to his new limitations and life back in his childhood home, but the idea of needing, or being needed, by anyone is nowhere on his radar. And he certainly has no interest in striking up a friendship with the newest little brat to move into Musutafu, no matter how fuckin’ cute her cheeks are or how gutsy her mother is.
Both have been through hell and back again- desperate to hold on to what they have and terrified of what opening their hands and heart to each other will mean letting go of.
CW: Domestic abuse and violence
If you know anything about me, you know my stories always have happy endings! But I also want to handle the reality of domestic violence with care and honesty. So if that is triggering in any way, tend to your soul, friend. I will have more specific tags in each chapter just in case there are certain iterations of DV that are particularly triggering.
