Summary
After the new year and the months since then, since his hair had grown back enough to hide the scar and he started letting them come to his house, Max watched Steve carefully, learned what to look for.
She noticed the headaches and the migraines—the way he'd squint and clench his jaw and move a little more carefully, like sudden movements hurt. She noticed how it took him longer to answer questions sometimes. She noticed how he'd forget words mid-sentence and have to pause, frustrated, until he couldn’t even remember what he'd been trying to say.
Everyone called him slow. And stupid. They joked about it, teased him about getting dumber, and Steve always laughed it off or agreed with them, like it was a choice and not a consequence.
But Max could tell it bothered him; could see it in the way his smile would tighten, just for a second, before he'd shrug and change the subject.
And it bothered her too.
So she started running interference.

Summary
The cultural learning curve, and the processing of...all of it.
It’s a learning process, trying to acclimate to the Ground’s customs when all Rudo has ever known is the culture in the sky. It’s a learning process the other way around, too. The Cleaners want to know about him as much as he them.
It’s also a learning process trying to navigate it all without Regto. Somehow, the memories of his dad are still everywhere, even now. All he can ever do now is hold on to them and try to stay afloat.

Summary
He tucks Steve back under clean sheets. Steve’s still murmuring to Tommy, whispering things that are supposed to sound soothing but only send chills down Dustin’s spine. He’s fading fast.
He’s a pale figure in a pale bed.
“I promise I’m not going to run a soul pawnshop,” Dustin says out loud.
He’s not.
“Since when do you believe in fate?” Steve asks quietly.

Summary
Robin didn't miss it, and he suddenly felt the tension drain out of him, letting loose a little laugh. "You know what, I'm done." He made his way towards the exit.
Artemis scowled, "what do you mean done?"
"I mean I'm done for the day." He grabbed his bag off the floor and pulled the flap of the tent open, "you guys keep practicing; you aren't nearly ready for the show."

Summary
If you asked Techno why he felt so drawn to some random kid, no words would be there for him to answer you with. There is no explicit reason why he should be asking Sam to watch the kid. No reason he feels like he has to help this kid.
He's drawn to the kid like a bee is to a flower. Like a chicken is to seeds. Like a Piglin is to gold.

A tournament is held in the Antarctic Empire twice a year. In a world where soulmates only share a connection via strong emotions, the royal family has spent years searching for their final piece. The last soulmate to complete their puzzle. So what happens when the last soulmate they've spent so long trying to find suddenly appears right under their noses to win the Antarctic tournament? What happens when he's so close, but they don't even know it? And what happens when he's actually winning?

when marimba rhythms start to play (dance with me, make me sway) by saccharinemarig0ld

Summary
“Here.” And inside the man’s hand was a white carnation. Before Tommy could question the stubbed flower, the braided-haired man stepped forward and placed it inside Tommy’s breast pocket, tampering with it until he was pleased with the position.
“Never should that flower leave your possession. It is yours,” spoke the debonair man, voice smooth and seldom previously but now edged with a calm acceptance, before turning; the rich fabric flowing and swirling around him, and sauntered far from his position.
“Pardon me,” Tommy called out, his voice capturing the man’s attention as he witnessed him pause mid-stride and glance over his shoulder. “I do not wish to have them in my care. Take them back.”
“No.” the man simply retorted without hesitation, stoic and firm with his decision. “I gave them to you out of consideration. It would be rude to disregard them in a manner.”
“And why should I? You cannot force me to do anything I do not wish to do.”
“Because I gave them to you.”
…
Or, Tommy was dragged to a masquerade party, hoping to stay out trouble. Oh, how terribly wrong he was to hope for such a thing.

Summary
He looks at Ace sidelong. "Is Gold Roger your dad?"
Ace's eyes narrow. No longer curious. "Which moron told you that?"
"Nobody had to tell me; it's obvious. You're just some pirate, right? Why else would they do all of this?"
Ace's fists clench in his lap. The chains shackling his wrists to his ankles overbalance, rattling as they coil between his feet. The marines who'd arrested him had let him keep his shoes. They seem to have let him keep everything: log pose, belt, necklace. They want to kill him at the height of his dignity. The effect is lessened somewhat by the heavy seastone handcuffs; the poor guy doesn't stand a chance. There isn't any pride to be taken in an execution, when your enemy is already beaten.
And there's something about the way that Ace is holding himself, breathing so deeply, looking back at Luffy so evenly, that tells him that Ace is beaten.

upon learning that fire fist ace is to be executed, marine lieutenant monkey d luffy races back to headquarters to meet the man standing in the shadow of a childhood hero

Summary
"Uh, I dunno, used to? Didn't really use wooden forks much though, so not really." Apparently happy with the choice, he pulled the bowl out and scrapped the covering, next going for a large serving spoon from one of the doors so he could shovel it into his mouth like a starved dog. "Fuckin' chopsticks was what we had to keep an eye on." He added in between mouthfuls, giving Dick a smirk and a knowing glance, as if they were both in on it and Dick knew anything about what he meant. "Anyway, I'm out. See you next family reunion, or tragedy or whatever."
And then he was gone, as was one of Alfred's favourite serving spoons and bowl, and the potato salad Dick knew for a fact Bruce had been saving to eat for lunch the next day. Jason probably knew that part, to be fair.
"...Chopsticks?" He muttered to himself, baffled, in the now empty kitchen.
Or,
Damian has some concerning habits. Jason's the only one that seems used to it. The rest of the bats scramble.

Jason's laughter has turned into breathless, silent cries. Damian barrels on, seemingly unbothered by his state.
"-And during all this I'm trying to subtly switch back to using people's actual names; except it fucking backfired because people just assumed I was calling Richard 'Richard' because we had that special parental mentor bond, and Tim had pissed off to- whatever he was doing in the desert for six months- getting a hysterectomy or whatever the fuck happened-"
"Hysterectomy-" Jason repeats, shrill. "He lost a spleen, Dames."

Summary
As always, Tommy made sure to wear thick sweaters and heavy overalls, covering every spare inch of skin with fabric. For the most part, it worked. No one knew he was a pufferfish hybrid. They just thought he was a loud, boisterous kid who didn’t like being touched. They didn't even notice the tiny spines on his face, now that puberty and stress had mercifully covered his cheeks in acne.
One morning, Tubbo tried to grab Tommy’s hand. The ram hybrid ended up heaving over a bucket for the next few hours. There was no fresh milk in Pogtopia, so there was nothing they could do but wait for the nausea to pass.
It was the last time Tommy let anyone get close enough to make that mistake.
Or: Tommy, a pufferfish hybrid, hasn't properly touched anyone in years. Techno is beginning to realize this.

Summary
A routine mission to deal with a small time group of thieves goes south when Tommy finds himself in the middle of a Syndicate operation. Thieves or not, people were in danger and Tommy was a hero.
Hopelessly outmatched Tommy intervenes, handing an even better prize to the Syndicate on a silver platter. But before the Syndicate’s most sadistic leader can turn his latest catch into another pawn in his game, said sidekick throws himself in harm's way in order to save the villain's life.
The Syndicate always repays its debts, even to heroes. A life for a life. But this victory for Order came at the cost of the Syndicate’s claim on one unaware sidekick. And no one escapes the Syndicate.
