Summary
In a secret military lab, a pedophile with a fetish for children having children creates a virus to accelerate female reproductive systems’ maturation rates worldwide. This touches off a worldwide crisis of declining fertility and plummeting birth rates as young girls in their tweens and single digits begin ovulating and menstruating earlier and earlier while women and older girls cease doing so at younger and younger ages. This leaves all the world—and specifically two families somewhere in rural Alabama—with a moral and social dilemma: people can still have offspring if they let little girls young enough to be in elementary school be impregnated on their families’ behalf; but will they dare to do so with so many personal and social taboos and legal prohibitions standing in their way?
This is the story of two families that dare to do so by persuading two pubescent tween boys who are best friends to impregnate each other's little sisters, and thereby ensure the continuation of their family lines; but at what cost to themselves, and how will their society react? Will people accept that they did what they had to do? What price will humanity ultimately pay to keep from going extinct?

Summary
The big day has arrived, and everyone is having a good time—especially the birthday girl Chloe. An even better time awaits Clara and Dan and Elisa and Jack at the end of the day, however, as this is to be the night when each pair of little lovers will finally consummate their pairing with a highly pleasurable mating intended to produce new life within each little girl. In preparation for this glorious endeavor, the birthday girl is soon put to bed and Francis and Megan each rope their respective husbands Joe and Jim into retiring early and leaving the little lovebirds alone with each other.
Eager as they are to commence with these long-anticipated couplings, each boy and girl is also a little bit anxious and hesitant to begin. Hence, they decide to draw the day’s end out a little further by competing as “married” couples in one last round of the board game they’d been playing. Once this odd impromptu ritual has been observed, only then are they each finally ready to retreat into seclusion with their chosen partner for their big evening’s climactic finale.

Summary
“Well, then,” he says finally, “Just the rings left.”
“The-“ Ed’s ass falls back onto his feet and his knee screams. “You want - the rings?”
“Yes!” Stede insists, like the question is silly, “We have to complete the ensembles.”
Ed’s face scrunches and his mouth opens, then closes, and he looks at Stede but the man seems entirely sincere, like there’s no deeper meaning behind this request, so Ed’s eyebrows rise and he shakes his head and says, “Yeah, mate. The ensemble. Right.”
So that’s how he ends up kneeling in front of the Gentleman Pirate, sliding off his own rings and watching him do the same.
___________________________
Or, the missing scene where Ed and Stede exchange their entire outfits, rings and all.

Summary
“Hey baby,” Van says in her ear, and it's so clean and sweet and effortless that Tai doesn’t know what to do with it, almost doesn’t want it. She grips her tighter against her chest so she doesn’t have to look at her yet. “Did you sleep?” Van asks. Tai almost laughs. She’s not the one who just walked all night through waist-deep snow.
“Not really,” Tai admits, but when she pulls back to look at Van she realizes that maybe that’s what she wanted to hear, was waiting to. She’s beautiful like this, flushed cold and scarred and with her teeth out, smiling at Tai even though, even despite.

Summary
When Kakashi Hatake finally wrangled his way out of the Hokage’s office, he expected freedom. No paperwork. No councils. No schedules. Just naps, novels, and the quiet life he’d been dreaming of.
The price? A symbolic union with his successor.
Apparently, Konoha looks more “stable” if the Sixth Hokage abdicates not only with a successor… but with a wife. And since the Seventh is none other than Uzumaki Naruto—his former student, his comrade, his loudest headache—the council insists on binding them together in name, if not in love.
Naruto, naturally, thinks it’s simple. “Easy deal. You get retirement, I get the hat. Don’t overthink it, Kakashi-sensei.”So they marry. Not in love. Not pretending otherwise. Just Hokage and ex-Hokage, sensei and student, comrades who’ve fought side by side—now bound by a vow neither of them asked for.
It should’ve been easy. Until, quietly, it isn’t.
