you weren't there that day for the Naming of Things by callmearcturus
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir, Project Hail Mary (2026)
12 Jun 2026

Summary
"Rocky did not understand human names and titles when we met. Eridian names longer, give information on Eridian's home, associations, skills." For the first time in ages, he positioned two of his arms together, forming the design that Grace thought of like a family crest, a single design bisected.
"You should teach me to read those before we get to Erid, so I can be polite." As Grace considered the linework, already picking up on some vague ideas from the shapes in Rocky's carapace, something else occurred to him. "So… I picked 'Rocky' because your outer shell looks like stone."
"And for inspirational story of athlete who defeats human system of poverty to become great champion. Eye of the tiger."
"Retroactively, yeah." Grace bent at the hips, getting to Rocky's 'eye' level. "So what'd you name me?"

Lost and Found by Mellie_Art
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021), League of Legends

Summary
As far as punishments go, rebirthing a once terminally ill man - whose obsession with human perfection drove him to almost end humanity - in a hospital bed in palliative care could be seen as a little on the nose. To make it the same one he woke up in all those months-years-a lifetime ago, especially so. But Viktor can’t help feeling it’s far better than he deserves.
Viktor emerges from the Arcane, alone. He’s not sure he can navigate a world that doesn’t have Jayce Talis in it.

Summary
Kyrie thought the whole thing was hilarious.
"It's free stuff, Nero," she said, rolling her eyes as she cut the packaging off a new roll of socks that had been left on the kitchen table that morning. "We're not going to say no to free stuff."
"You don't know where my father got those socks!" he argued.
"They have a receipt."
"He probably bought them with stolen money," Nero said. "Put those down, Kyrie. Those are blood socks. If my father thinks he can buy my affection with eight dollar blood socks, he is sorely mistaken."

Three Bells, Each With a Separate Sound by inexplicifics for Heronfem
Fandoms: Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types
25 Jul 2021
Tags
Summary
In a dank cave in the Blue Mountains, a stripling just barely past the cusp of manhood looks up at a cyclops looming over him and raises his arm in a futile effort to ward off the massive hand as it swings towards him.
On the banks of a river, hundreds of miles and precisely five decades later, to the day and the hour and the ticking second, a man raises his hand to deflect the arrow hissing towards him and knows he’s going to be too slow.
Both of them have the exact same thought as their deaths approach:
Lambert is never going to forgive me.

Summary
Jaskier doesn’t actually know how much time has passed since the black-cloaked Nilfgaardians grab him after a performance in a shitty tavern in the backcountry of northern Kaedwen. He’d assumed--foolishly, apparently--that he was far enough north that any Nilfgaardian soldiers would be few and far between, likely just scouts or even deserters. It would have been hard to actually get any further north--the little backwater town where he’d been singing was just a day from the mountains. Anymore travel, and he’d find himself skirting the Trail up to Kaer Morhen, the Warlord’s Keep, and, well. He’s brazen, but not that brazen.
(or: a wandering bard bites off more than he can chew with the political ballads, accidentally makes friends with a princess in exile, and finds the Warlord of the North in his debt.)

A Study In Contradictions by Jaynovz (Christel_Jenkins) for battle_cat
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
23 May 2026
Tags
Summary
"When Viktor has sought out bed partners previously to work off steam, he's chosen men more… similar to himself: in looks, in stature, in disposition. To put a finer point on it, none of those men have been Jayce fucking Talis, the only person who has ever matched Viktor in ambition and intellectual pursuit, his equal, most definitely the first actual friend he has ever made, and oh yes coincidentally also, tall, dark, broad, unfairly handsome, with gargantuan, capable blacksmith’s hands."
--
Aka five times Viktor noticed his new partner has huge wandering fuckoff paws, plus the one time he did something about it.

Summary
It’s not him, Sanji reminded himself, frantically. You’re jumping at phantoms again. Flinching at shadows. It’s not him, and it’s never going to be.
Except it was. Broader and battered and down to one working eye, but it was.
Across the crowded room, Roronoa Zoro lifted a sun-faded, wide-brimmed leather hat off his head and looked up to meet Sanji’s gaze for the first time in seven years. “Hey, cook,” he said.
Sanji calmly reached beneath the bar and hefted a shot glass into his hand, tossing it straight up and catching it in his palm to test the weight. Then he wound up and flung it unceremoniously at Zoro’s traitorous skull.
“Get the fuck,” Sanji said, “out of my bar.”Bookmarked by frequentlybees

Summary
He grins again, somehow equally unbothered by the fact he has just toppled several feet to the floor, and that their experiment was—at least somewhat—foiled again. Or that he’s presently effectively straddling Viktor.
Not for the first time, Viktor finds himself wishing that his matching expression could show through the visor somehow.
And then he thinks, with a startling and almost desperate clarity:
It could.
Or: Zaunite shut-in Viktor hides in his lab and behind his mask, until a tipsy Academy drop-out stumbles into his life on a reckless gander into the Undercity. Something blooms.

The Greatest Act of Optimism by Acewithapaintbrush

Summary
The Eridian thrills a high sound that doesn’t get picked up by the translator which means that it has no clear meaning. Like when a human gasps or sucks in a deep breath. It actually sounds a little like that. When they notice that I’m staring straight at them they scramble back into their hiding spot and hold very still.
A child, I realize with a start.
That’s a child!
“Hey,” I call and the kid squeaks again. I was about to get to my feet but abort the movement and crawl closer on my hands and knees until I'm inches away from the xenonite wall. I wait and it takes me much too long to realize that they don’t have to peek around the corner to see if I’m still there.
“Hey there,” I try again, my voice low and calm. It’s my teacher voice, the one I use for shy and scared students.
Used.
The fact that I haven’t had to use it for years and it still comes to me automatically almost knocks the air out of my lungs but this is not about me, it’s about making sure the little pebble doesn’t die of fright from the scary alien. “Hi, I’m Grace. It’s alright, you don’t have to be scared.”

Summary
“Forgive me. I suppose what I was really asking was whether you… if there was anyone you had an attachment to.”
He shrugs. “Romance is not a priority for me at present.”
That seems to pique Jayce’s interest. “It isn’t?”
“If I had a choice in the matter, I would choose my independence,” Viktor says in a rush. “But alas. Society dictates that I must marry or beg. And I will not beg.”
He’s not entirely sure what prompts him to be so recklessly honest, and regrets it almost immediately. But Jayce simply nods.
“It is unfair,” he says quietly.
Or, how to rationalise accepting a proposal of marriage from a man you’ve only just met.

Summary
The stories say a siren's song is to be feared. They call it a curse, a death sentence.
They are wrong. The song is simply a beginning. The real danger is far softer, slower, and sweeter, a doom borne upon the siren's kiss.
Whatever the truth, Viktor has no cause for concern. For what would a siren want from a broken man like him, fleeing a lonely life in Piltover to another by the sea?

Summary
He catches a glimpse of himself in the small mirror across the room.
It’s as if he’s been frozen in time. Nothing about him has changed since he last touched the surface of his home planet.
But of course, that’s not true. Everything has changed.
He doesn’t understand. He doesn’t know what this means. He’s a man of science. There are rules, immutable laws of the universe, no matter where in the universe one is. Entropy, decay, deterioration. Everything in the universe experiences it.
Everything except him, it seems.
Or: While on Erid, Ryland Grace makes a startling realization: he seems to have stopped aging.

Summary
“Rocky saw.”
His mind races. The what, the ship cams? Did they record Stratt’s men dumping him comatose and still and scared in the ship, did they talk about what they’d done to him? No, that would make sense. Besides, the Hail Mary was in orbit around Erid, not impossible to get to, but not worth it for a nose around. Or – maybe he’d said something in his sleep, and Rocky was only just talking to him about it. That also makes no sense. Or maybe –
“You… saw.”
“Eridians see dream-memories sometimes.”
“That literally makes no sense,” blurts Ryland, and Rocky stamps his feet. The way he’d done back on the ship when something was painfully obvious and Ryland failed to get it. “Sorry. You’re gonna have to explain.”
“Eridians are linked to all Eridians. Erid is like – word need word – database. Database for all Eridians thought memories events. When Eridians sleep, they see other Eridian memories. Didn’t happen on ship because no tie to Erid. Didn’t happen on Mary because no tie to Erid. Rocky saw Grace's memories.”
***
Or: Rocky finds out Grace was forced onto the Hail Mary without his consent, but not really in the way you'd expect.
