    Summary

    Henry should be the one standing here, triumphant in his long-await victory and finally laying to rest the spirits of Skalitz he carries on his shoulders, but Henry is God-knows-where, trapped in von Bergow’s hands, and so Hans will do it in his stead.

    Summary

    “Floremesis,” the apothecary eventually muttered. He looked up, his expression pitying. “Flower petals; you’d best see a priest, lad. Nobody but God can help you.”

    A shock ran through Henry like a cold wind, drawing his attention with a snap of focus. “Flower petals?” he repeated incredulously, his throat suddenly dry. “What, like Mary Magdalene?”

    He’d never really believed the stories of saints and martyrs coughing up flowers. That was something that happened a thousand years ago, the words inked in Latin scripture on illuminated pages, not to now, not to him.

    Summary

    “Chloé,” Adrien said slowly, “At our wedding, are we gonna have to…”

    “No!” Chloé shook her head firmly. “We don’t have to kiss. We can do whatever we want. It’s our wedding.”

    “Oh, good,” Adrien sighed.

    “You have to kiss at a wedding,” Félix argued.

    “I don’t have to do anything and you’re not the boss of me!” Chloé shouted.

    “Yeah!” Adrien grinned. He grabbed Chloé’s hand again. “Yeah, it’s our wedding.”

    //

    Adrien and Chloé, wedding planning through the years.

    Summary

    Everybody had expected Monarch's defeat to be a moment of triumph. Nobody had expected Gabriel Agreste, unmasked and mind frayed from continual abuse of the miraculous, crying out to all who would listen and making Paris certain of one thing:

    His son, Adrien Agreste, is one of his sentimonsters.

    And now he's missing.

    Nobody can find him— not even the superheroes, and not even his closest friends. But Marinette, Nino, and Alya aren't ones to give up so easily. They'll find him, no matter what it takes.

    (But, geez, would it kill Chat Noir to lend a hand?)

    Summary

    “You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?” Jinshi accused her. His voice sounded more resigned than anything — like that of someone who knew he had no real chance of pulling her attention away.

    He was, of course, correct.

    “I don’t know what you mean sir,” Maomao replied distractedly and without really having heard him as she surveyed the herbs spread out before her.

    Or, Maomao and Jinshi are stranded. Maomao is having the time of her life.

    Summary

    Himmel excels at heroics—daring rescues, spectacular victories, and, perhaps most of all, putting his own feelings aside. At the close of a ten-year journey, resignation is the rule of his life, and he'll wait.

    Problem is, finding an orphaned young elf was not in the cards when he made that plan, and the fact is that no one is more qualified to advise him on the matter than the woman he swore to himself he wouldn't chase.

    (Or: Himmel acquires a daughter, Frieren is confused, and everything—finally—comes back around.)

    Summary

    "Neuvillette.

    She says his name sometimes, whispered into the empty night, like a sailor throwing an anchor down at sea. Semantic satiation twists any word she repeats beyond some invisible threshold, numbs her tongue into incoherence; only Neuvillette is immune. He may have no interest in becoming her friend, but he’s something — an oasis in the desert, an island in the middle of the sea. A ‘something’ beyond comprehension or definition. He is gentle, and fair, and so much himself that sometimes Furina can hardly bear to look at him. Instead, she drapes her hope for the future like a cloak around his shoulders and pulls him with her into the sky, hand in hand, onto the glittering pedestal of fame and faith that will save their people from ruin."

    Neuvillette and Furina, throughout the centuries.

    Summary

    ""It was interesting, at first, to notice how huma— ahem, how other humans talked about death. But then she offered me a funeral package.”

    Neuvillette closes his eyes. He doesn’t want to talk about this. He doesn’t want to have to think about it, not when it will be inescapable soon enough. Live, he wants to beg her. Stay with me forever. It would be so easy to ensure her survival. But she has lived far longer than any human would wish to, and withstood far more pain and fear than any other human could have survived. He has no right to ask this of her.

    “Did you take it?” He asks. He does not want to know the answer."

     

    Furina returns from Liyue with a newfound lease on life.
