Summary
Now Sanemi was really pissed off. One moment, he was the laughingstock of all his fellow Hashira. Now this ice-faced pretty boy comes marching in out of nowhere and everyone is cooing over him like a freshly hatched baby bird? What gives? What the hell was going on?
“He’s the new Hashira, idiot.” Obanai answered. “And you’re talking out loud. You’ll scare the ‘baby bird.’”
Giyuu looked like he wanted to disappear into the ground.
The Hashira – eight of the most intelligent, hardworking, and distinguished students that made up the student council. On a technicality, Giyuu is now supposed to be one of them. He doesn’t feel very deserving of the title, but at least everyone has been kind and welcoming. Well, almost everyone.
Sanemi excelled at school and he was damn proud of it. Being the only support system in a house with an absentee father and too many siblings, it was a miracle that Sanemi could pass his classes let alone score high enough to be a Hashira. Everyone on the student council was nothing short of exceptional. Well, almost everyone.

Summary
With two more championships under his belt, 2025 and 2026 won easily, Marc misses it. Misses the way racing was before, when he was surrounded by other riders like him; monstrous, savage, aliens. Misses the thrill that would go down his spine when he had riders like Valentino hunting him down, or the starved feeling he would get when he did the hunting. The wish for it all back thunks in his chest, sits there after every win and victory and moment of hollow nothing. Sometimes he even wishes he could go back in time and do it again, hell even further back. Race against shorn-haired Valentino, with his fire and his youth and the future stretching out before him. A dangerous wish.
One the universe decides to answer.

The Journal of Aurelia Cassian by HoneySickle47
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Elder Scrolls
11 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
She came to Skyrim with twenty septims, a dagger, and far too much confidence.
Aurelia Cassian is eighteen, stubborn, sarcastic, and completely unprepared for the blood-soaked chaos waiting beyond Cyrodiil’s border. She thought she’d find adventure. Instead, she finds wolves, frostbite, bandits, necromancers, unpaid labor, morally dubious bards, and a chair by the fire if she’s lucky. So...kind of the same!
These are her journal entries—recorded every day without skipping a beat—as she tries to survive a land that seems determined to break her. What begins as the overconfident ramblings of a would-be adventurer slowly becomes something more: a record of scars, choices, victories, and the uncomfortable, unstoppable process of becoming someone powerful.
She doesn’t know she’s the Dragonborn. She just wants to make it through the week without dying, crying, or punching a noble in the teeth.
She might fail on all three.
But at least she'll look damn good doing it. -

Summary
A legal document, forgotten but not erased, drags a man who has just walked away from everything back to the bedside of the woman he left behind, forcing them to navigate the wreckage of her body and their shared history. Now he must decide how far he is willing to go to help bring the woman he loves back.
With this love like a hole
Swallow my soul
Draggin me down
And I swear I'll stay with you
But I just can't forgive you
And I'll never be whole again

Summary
Xichen bought the wine on a whim as he was leaving the city. At this point, he had tried meditation, diversion, isolation, and being around others—and it was all the same. So, he might as well try something different.
Hiding it in his robes, he did his best to smile and hold himself together as he passed a few sect disciples while he hurried back to his abode. Now, he takes the jug out of his sleeve and stares at it plaintively. Perhaps he will find more answers within the vessel than he finds in its exterior.
He's got nothing left to lose.

Summary
In a world where Jinx is dead and the people of the undercity worship her like she's some kind of god, Sevika sold her dignity to be part of the council, and Vi can't bring herself to come back to Zaun, Ekko struggles to find his footing after the war. It seems that everyone has moved on, found a purpose to keep them going, and he's the only one that can't bring himself to look at the altars that keep popping up all over the city without crying.
He lets his grief consume him, dictate his life, until one night where everything changes—not just for him, but for the entire undercity, because Janna isn't blind. Piltover doesn't intend for anything to change, and she knows it better than anyone.
Now, in the wake of a new era, where the lines between the spirit realm and earth are blurred, Ekko has to learn how to manage a gift he never asked for with the help of an unexpected teacher.

Summary
E' trascorso un anno dalla battaglia contro Jun Wu e Xie Lian puo' finalmente riabbracciare il suo San Lang, ma come disimparare un'astinenza che ha praticato con devozione per otto secoli?
Tornerà a galla un episodio del passato di Mu Qing e Feng Xin che avevano cercato di dimenticare e che li porterà finalmente a un difficile, ma necessario, confronto.
Un misterioso e affascinante uomo mascherato dichiara a Shi Qingxuan di essere un emissario del Regno Immortale, incaricato di rimetterlo in condizione di ascendere di nuovo. Ritrovare la perduta immortalità significherà perdere un pezzetto di cuore?
Doloroso è il passato che lega il Generale Ming Guang alla Maestra della Pioggia e tra loro regna il gelo: lui a disagio, lei incapace di fargli comprendere che non serba rancore. In mezzo, un sentimento vecchio di secoli imprigionato in una ragnatela di timori e rimpianti.
Mentre sullo sfondo si delinea l'assetto del Nuovo Regno e si elegge il Consiglio che dovrà governarlo, le vite dei protagonisti subiranno sorprendenti mutamenti, nel tentativo di trovare il proprio posto nel nuovo ordine celeste e nel cuore di coloro che amano. -
