“Would you like to live with me then?”
Jimin was about to shake his head before snapping his head up, causing his dizziness to worsen, to look at the man in front of him.
He was looking at Jimin with pure curiosity and nothing more, or so he would like to think. He gazed at the man with messy dyed blonde hair. He looked to be wearing silk matching pajamas along with brown worn out loafers. Jimin noticed that there were splashes of colorful paint on his face and the collar of his clothes. The man tilted his head and patiently waited for his answer.
“Who are you?” was what came out of Jimin’s mouth.
“Oh! I’m Kim Taehyung,” he grinned.
Jimin nodded, “and what do you want from me, Kim Taehyung-ssi?”

Jimin finally finds a home in Taehyung.

Summary
A fifteen-year-old Viking teenager named Rodêne recalls his past. He had a troubled childhood, often finding himself too awkward to fit in anywhere. Despite this, he found a wonderful friend, and was quite happy. Unfortunately, the land they lived in, the island of Lelondell, would always be in constant danger from fire-breathing dragons. Rodêne had initially been a soft-hearted, kind « weakling », but eventually he grew up to be a complicated teenage swordsman who hated dragons with a burning passion. Things eventually began to fall apart for him, and one day, he was whisked away from everything he knew, to a place where he is now. A place where he feels frozen and lost. Eventually, he realises bit by bit what went wrong and discovers the reasons behind the Dragon-Viking war. Can he forgive others ? Can he forgive everything ? Can he forgive himself ? Can he save himself ?
A combination of an original story and a fanfiction. Set in the expanded universe of HTTYD. Original characters first, canon characters later. Friendship, slice-of-life, adventure, romance.
Note : Very different from a normal How To Train Your Dragon fanfic.

Tony teaches Morgan how to ride a bike for the first time: a common father-daughter moment that becomes an aching memory for Morgan, now that her dad is gone.
“It was fun, I still remember it. The stinging sun on my arms left bare by the short sleeves. The brief breeze caused by my speed on that bike. My hair pushed back by the wind blowing in my face.
I started laughing out loud and I heard you cackling too behind me.
“You can do it, you can do it!”, you were screaming. Was it really like flying in one of your suit, dad? Was it? I remember I closed my eyes just for an instant and I actually thought I was up in the sky, flying among the clouds with you by my side.” -

Summary
Tony isn’t sure why it’s this mission that comes back to him that night. It’s nothing special, nothing even particularly successful—just a bunch of injuries and comfort food, typical for how they used to operate.
He wonders whether Steve knew, back then. Whether Nat had already picked her side.
If anyone were to ask him now, he’d say he’s angry—furious, even—because that’s easier to deal with than the sadness that comes along with betrayal. And what he’d never say is that he misses them.

When the Traveler gave me its Light, I was given armor, a gun, and a voice who told me where to point and shoot.
The life of a Guardian is not chosen. We are bodies resurrected from dust, with minds of children told of a darkness that will consume them. We are drafted soldiers, fighting for the cause because we are being hunted and killed like prey, because we have nothing and know nothing.
When you take away the armor, the gun and the voice, we, too, are nothing.

Bookmarker's Notes
The quiet buildup of angst-worthy (but not actually angsty because the writing is too sophisticated to spell it out so directly) revelations in this fic is absolutely devastating. The unspoken self-imposed limitations, yearnings, shock are all the more powerful for being only hinted at, in bringing the reader further into the mind of the character. Beautifully written KakaNaru, with masterful use of the taboo dimensions of the relationship and the situation.

Summary
This will actually become two stories. The first 14 chapters are a common beginning. After that, each story takes off in entirely different directions. Why? Good question.
The first story is called 'All In' and is approx 82K words. It is an MA rated Naruto x Sasuke drama.
The second story is called 'Constellations' and is closer to 100K words. It is an MA rated Naruto x Sasuke drama that contains a major character death.
I have posted both stories here with the intention of posting simultaneously. NOTE: THE FIRST 14 CHAPTERS OF BOTH STORIES ARE IDENTICAL.
Some readers have suggested different ways of presenting these two stories; I prefer this one.

Bookmarker's Notes
Moving and desperate and sensitive and so, so beautiful. Yes, it's a threesome, yes there's a major character death, yes there's lots of angst and despair and people being stupid and really not much smut (there are sex scenes but they don't drag on for forever or overpower the story like ones in so many other stories do). In the end the romance isn't the point of the story, but neither is it an unnecessary of barely-there subplot; rather, the romance is an integral ingredient and reflection of the actual main plot - coming to terms with, striving to overcome, and struggling to move on from a hopeless situation. How these three very different characters, each in their own very different ways, react to the situation and to each other, all the while juggling an unconventional and tension-wrought three-way relationship makes for an intense and in-depth character study.
... Of course, there's the Yandere!Sakura (obsessive and malicious and violent) and the horrible Council, but those are mostly contained within the 14 chapters which this story shares with its twin 'All In'. They do disappear. Although Kurama is malevolent to the end (not quite evil, per se, just absolutely not releasable)...
Personally, I prefer this version. Yes, there's a major character death, but there is also a lot of... love and gentleness and people being awesome to round it out and soften the blow and bring us back to a better state of mind. The epilogue is made of pure win, but also the several chapters between the death and the end which show us how everyone picked themselves back up and moved on without ever forgetting the one who died. And let's just say that the emotional abuse and manipulation in 'All In' is convincing and powerful enough to leave far more of an impact.
