Summary
After accompanying his sister Isabelle to Eisande to begin her medical training, Alec Lightwood’s plans to return directly home to resume his post on the border are derailed when he’s asked to escort the mysterious — and distractingly beautiful — Magnus Bane, a Priest of Naamah with a target on his back, home to the City of Elua.
Bound by his vows as a descendent of the Unforgiven to protect anyone under threat in service to the Crown, Alec finds himself on a journey that becomes so much more than a simple fortnight of traveling. With each day he spends in Magnus’ warm, sensual, infuriating presence, the desires Alec’s suppressed for years in service of his duty become impossible to ignore. And with each flash of Magnus’ smile, Alec’s forgets a bit more why he ever tried.

Summary
Alec can’t breathe.
The cracked vinyl hospital bench creaks beneath him as he rocks forward to hunch over the borrowed cellphone in his hands, the fluorescent lights glaring up off the sterile, bleach-white floor to burn his sleep-tired eyes.
He’s too late.
The emergency message from the Red Cross took three days to reach him, and Alec is far, far too late.

Summary
“Hmm,” Magnus puts in, even though no one asked him. “Are they vital, these missing memories? Merely suggesting that memories are removed for many reasons and barring the fate of the entire Downworld resting on their safe retrieval - if you happened to know where a lost Shadowhunter relic might have been hidden away in order to stop a psychopathic maniac from starting a war, for instance - sometimes things are better not tampered with.”
“You’ve done this before then,” the girl says. “Summoned a Memory Demon?”
“Indeed,” Magnus says.
...
Years after the attempt with Valak, Magnus finds his home overrun with a group of young Shadowhunters in need of summoning another Memory Demon. It brings a few things to light for the newest generation - not least of which is one of the biggest open secrets in the Clave.

Summary
This moment has been a long time coming. Though Alec had never wanted to take it this far, he'd always kept the idea there in the back of his mind. Something that he could do if the need ever proved great enough.
He was tired of fighting against the Lightwood name. Tired of trying to atone for sins he had never committed. Ever since he’d been old enough to walk Alec had carried the weight of generations on his shoulders. He’d shouldered the responsibility of being the oldest son, the Lightwood heir, the one who was going to – who had to – bring honor to the Lightwood name. Even before he’d known the true depths of their dishonor the weight had still been a heavy one.
No more. With one swipe of the stele, Alec was going to set his own path forward. One where he hoped he could do enough to make the angel proud.

Summary
Alec has spent most of his life hiding.
That's just the way things have always been. From a young age he knew he had to hide to keep himself safe, because there were people out there who would hurt him just for being born the way he was. To keep his secret, Alec has done his best to hide away the parts of himself he can't risk letting anyone see, only letting that part of himself out in the late night hours when no one's around and he can take to the skies. It's the only place he's ever felt free.
All that changes one night when Alec happens to misjudge a storm and finds himself crash landing on Magnus Bane's rooftop.

Summary
Magnus, a Shadowhunter freshly arrived at the New York Institute amidst the second rise of Valentine, has ulterior motives for his transfer— the elusive name on his wrist promising a soulmate who seems to have been wiped from all Clave records. Pulled into a chance encounter with a young warlock, the two of them get tangled up in the dark plot of one Iris Rouse. Working together to apprehend her and rescue Magnus’s friend, something more than a common interest draws them together. Fate, perhaps?

Zhao Yunlan shouldn't have stopped to talk to the paramedics - that was his first thought when he rounded the corner. The second, spoken aloud, was, "Professor Shen. Why is it you again?"
(a.k.a. the one where Zhao Yunlan finds Shen Wei in a highly suspicious place even earlier than episode 3/4)

Summary
In the early morning sun, the SID’s brick façade glows like a volcano. There’s already a snaking queue outside, people singly and in couples—one woman with a baby, two teenagers with a sleepy child.
Dai Jiaying joins the queue’s tail, and others soon come up behind until, logically, they’re the tail, and she’s right in the snake’s belly. She banishes the thought, shoves her doubts and misgivings away; she’s here now. She tilts her face into the sunlight and prepares to wait.

Summary
At the top of a flight of stairs, a figure was slipping around a corner. In the last moment before she disappeared from his line of sight, Shen Wei recognised her: it was An Bai's friend, Cao Dandan.
Power swirled in his palm. He could catch her, easily -
He hesitated. Clenched his hand into a fist. He couldn't.
Whether or not she was innocent this time, Shen Wei had no faith in a fair investigation, much less a fair trial. Not in Dixing. Not any more.

Summary
Shen Wei senses Zhao Yunlan’s inhale before he hears his sigh, before he feels Zhao Yunlan move, and Shen Wei silently shifts his leg away as Zhao Yunlan stretches forward to pick up another case file. If Zhao Yunlan looks over at him, Shen Wei keeps his gaze trained on the file in his hands and doesn’t see it.
“Cause of death records,” Zhao Yunlan says as he flips the case file open, the same way he’d said acid composition notes for the last one, and trident wound autopsies for the one before that. Shen Wei hears him tuck his lollipop into his cheek, the click of it against his teeth. “It’s from ten years ago, I’m surprised it was allowed to lapse. My old man would’ve still been in charge then.”
Or: A week after Shen Wei restores Zhao Yunlan's eyesight, the SID uncovers a new lead to an old case.

It's a stupid idea, but applying to a Dixingren university means Zhao Yunlan can say goodbye to any plans Zhao Xinci had for his future. And that has to be worth it, right? He really doesn't want to follow in his father's footsteps.

Summary
Zhao Yunlan is one of the best officers Shen Wei has worked with. Intuitive, intelligent, and brave. But he’s also brash, mouthy, and was raised for most of his youth by Zhao Xinci. He’s not above casual bigotry. Vampires feed on humans; vampires seek to control humans. Humans fear and hate them. Zhao Yunlan’s mental model doesn’t excuse the significant proportion of the species who work to hold the balance. Who recognize that chaos and bloodshed isn’t a solution.
But Shen Wei remembers. He remembers a time that hasn’t happened yet. A time when things will be otherwise.
And he waits. And he hopes.

All Flowers In Time Bend Towards The Sun by fateorkarma (thouarta)
Fandom Biohazard | Resident Evil (Gameverse)
11 Nov 2024
Summary
“Oh, all flowers in time bend towards the sun.
I know you say that there's no-one for you, but here is one.”Luis Serra Navarro has not had the best life. It seems that misery follows him around anywhere he goes, and he’s resigned himself to accepting misery as his only companion.
But then Leon S. Kennedy comes waltzing into his life, and suddenly he isn’t undeterred to give life another chance. If life managed to keep going on after everything that’s happened then that surely means that there’s something worth living for.
It’s funny what love does to a man.

Summary
Luis Serra Navarro should be dead, a mere vague memory in the minds of those unfortunate enough to meet him. He isn't sure why he's still alive, let alone being taken care of by Leon Kennedy, the same man he inadvertently almost doomed due to his poor choices. Still, if life has decided Luis is deserving of another chance then he's going to try. It's the least he can do for everyone he's failed before.
For his mother. For his Grandfather. For Leon. But most importantly, he's going to try for himself.
