    Summary

    Rumi looks down. “Your soul,” she whispers mournfully, enraptured by the blue light trickling out of his chest. “It’s beautiful.”

    Jinu smiles.

    Gently, he presses his forehead against hers. Rumi jolts, eyes widening, but to his relief, she doesn’t pull away.

    “My soul,” he echoes softly. “It’s yours, now.”

    Rumi opens her mouth, but no words escape her as she gapes at him. A tear cascades down her cheek.

    “It’s mine to give, and yours to take, if you’ll have me.” His vision is blurring, and so he lets his eyes fall shut, allowing the darkness to encompass him. He forces himself to believe that the lull of sleep is accepted of his own volition.

    His cheeks tingle. Rumi is holding onto his face. “No, no, no—” she grits out. Her voice is growing distant. “Stop. You can’t do this to me.” The words rush out of her in a frenzy, full of haste and distress. “Jinu.”

    “Rumi,” he responds in a broken murmur. “Thank you.”

    She was right. Gwi-Ma could be defeated.

    He should have listened to her.

    (Or: A fix-it/time-travel au where Jinu goes back to the very beginning of the story and sets things right.)

    Summary

    "Fine, Officer Pointy, my white knight in shining armor. My name is Ty, and I fuck people for money. I've been fucking people for money on this godforsaken spaceport for longer than I can remember, and I'll continue to work here fucking people for money long after you're gone to your next assignment.”

     

    V'Shar Officer Spock is assigned to New Hope Space Port's Precinct 76 to investigate a sex trafficking ring after his predecessor is grievously wounded. Nothing about the case goes the way he wants it to, least of all his relationship with his main informant.

    Summary

    Shenanigans ensue when one middle finger to the Academy too many gets Starfleet Cadet James T. Kirk booted off planet for a summer internship aboard the V.S.S. Sh'Raan.

    He's hiding a major secret from the oh so earnest and helpful Vulcans, but the longer he's on the ship, the more Jim starts to wonder if they're keeping secrets from him, too.

    ---

    Captain Spisee handed Jim a heavy sheet of rich, cream paper embossed with gold dusted Vulcan calligraphy bearing the ship’s name. It was a bit cheap by the standards of Vulcan stationary aesthetics, but shipboard life meant some sacrifices. In the most elegant handwriting he’d ever had the privilege to lay eyes on, it read:

    Human Enrichment and Optimal Health Program:

    - One (1) Daily Shoulder Pat (more provided upon request)
    - Seventy (70) Seconds of Hug Time Per Week (divided between crew members as you deem necessary)
    - Three (3) Discrete Instances of Daily Praise
    - Three (3) Structured Entertainments per week
    - Minimum of One (1) Social Companion per meal (more available upon request)

    “We would appreciate detailed weekly feedback on the efficacy of our Human integration efforts."

    Summary

    “We are t’hy’la,” Spock repeated, openly watching Kirk for a reaction now. When all he got was dumbfounded silence, no doubt mirroring Spock’s earlier appearance of shock, he clarified, “Soulmates if that is easier to process.”

    It wasn’t.

    ----------------------------

    Captain and First Officer meet for the first time. Spock explains they're t'hy'la. Kirk is determined to make this working relationship work.

    Summary

    Jim works nights at a government lab as a custodian while attending college. He dreams of the stars, of another life he's meant to have, but has no way to achieve those dreams. The military doesn't want him, and NASA is still aways from wanting to hire him.

    One night, a ship falls from the sky. The lab takes possession of the ship and the 'specimen' inside.

    Jim can't fight the pull he feels towards the strange man with slanted brows, pointy ears, and green blood.

    Summary

    The admiralty wants Spock to captain his own ship. Neither Kirk nor Spock wants him to leave the Enterprise. When they find a regulatory loophole that might prevent their separation, they take it, and damn the consequences.

    When the implications of their fake relationship begin to unearth secrets from Kirk's past, he's going to have to choose between keeping those secrets or keeping his marriage- and the impact of that decision threatens to shake the Federation to its core.

    Summary

    When Tony had seen Strange hold up his finger he'd known exactly what it meant. This was the one. They'd done it. By some miracle they'd done it.

    Except then Strange was there, telling him it wasn't the one. It never had been.

    Tony had already given everything he had, now he had to do it all over again.

    At least he wasn't alone. In fact, he'll never be alone again. He wasn't sure how he felt about that.

    Summary

    After his fight with Doc Ock on top of the Oscorp tower, Spider-Man disappears. Deadpool, understandably, freaks the fuck out about it.
    Lucky for him, his plan to find Spidey leads him to Feast, where he meets a grieving Peter Parker, who's working himself to the bone. Hopefully they can help each other out before a new villain decides to destroy Manhattan. (And maybe fall in love along the way...)
    ***
    Sequel to Spider-Man PS4, except I'm pretending Deadpool has always been a thing in this universe.

    Summary

    PWKM Fill:

    I've read few fics where Edgeworth (in love with Phoenix) very self-sacrificingly tries to help Phoenix and Iris hook up.

    And every time, I keep thinking they're going to go in the direction of people (possibly even Phoenix and/or Iris) thinking that it's Iris that Edgeworth's hung up on.

    And they never did, even though it would make for great drama/comedy/irony/stuff.

    So, that's what I am prompting.

    Summary

    Trapped on May 17, 2028 with no idea how to break free, Klavier goes through the day, pushing the boundaries of the time loop little by little. The repeats tick by, and Klavier learns in bits and pieces about the Wright Anything Agency's civil trial and their departure for Khura'in, but remains in the dark as to how to escape his loop.

    Until something changes, some ten-odd cycles in. It seems that Klavier’s not the only one stuck. Now if only he could figure out how to get Apollo to cooperate with him so they can both break free, and maybe finally confess his feelings along the way.

    Summary

    Simon swallows down a lump in his throat as his cheeks flush with a mix of embarrassment and (slightly pathetic) sadness. He hasn’t experienced this sort of dumb, low-level heartbreak since sixth form and he’s suddenly overcome with a gut-wrenching sense of deja vu as he remembers how stupid he’d felt crying over a girl in his psychology class he’d barely known, his chest tightening as he processes Athena’s words.

    Nahyuta Sahdmadhi is dating Klavier Gavin.

    --

    In which Simon thinks Nahyuta is dating Klavier, Nahyuta thinks Klavier is dating Simon, and Klavier has no idea what's going on.

    “And,” Miles leans in even closer, till the warmth of his breath tickles against the shell of Phoenix’s ear and Phoenix has to fight a pleasant shiver. “I brought ramen for your hangover tomorrow. Extra salty noodles. Don’t tell Larry or you’ll have to share.”
