    A reluctant bride. A feared warlord. A marriage that reshapes the stars.

    Avrora never meant to stand out, let alone become the Duchess of House Vortan. But when a political twist forces her into marriage with Duke Alaric, the Empire’s most ruthless commander, she is swept from a quiet life into a world of warships, icy planets, and whispered secrets.

    Summary

    An accident only you know about. A dead body you had to hide in the night. You are expecting every person within your village to be rapid with rage, searching for a culprit to put the blame. You know it would only be a matter of time before you would be hanged, or worse, burnt at the stake. Strangely, though, everyone behaves as if nothing is wrong.

    And then you see why.

    Summary

    This is not my work!

    This is a fan retelling of one of my favorite mangas, Boukyaki no Shirushi to Hime, whose original mangaka passed away in 2014, leaving the series unfinished. I will start at the beginning of the manga and go through the entire story that has already been written. Once I reach chapter 20, which is the end of the published chapters, I will have to start extrapolating and imagining how the story may have played out. I hope I can do the original story justice and not disgrace the original author.

    I will say that I will be fixing a few things that made me uncomfortable about the original manga, in that the female protagonist was 15, which I didn't like. Otherwise I will try to stick as close to the original story as possible, though I will be arranging it so that it's a bit more linear.

    I hope you enjoy!

    Summary

    Bandits, bears, and night-mares weren't the only things a woman on her own like her had to worry about: there were tales of Fire-Raisers, soulless men who kidnapped, killed, and took whatever they wanted in the name of their master. Most women avoided the southern borders of the woods because of them.

    Most women feared them.

    But she was not most women, for Juno feared no man. She feared scorpions, commitment, and a dull life, but not men.

    What if it’s all a cruel trick? she wants to ask the eldest — she’s a young girl again, a child, and she desperately wants her big brother to tell her that everything’s going to be alright.

    What if it’s all a lie? What if I spend years on this and finish all of them and nothing happens?

    Summary

    "You have to come with me," he shook his head.

    His tone offered little room for argument, but she didn't care a bit.

    "Why?" Theodora demanded.

    "Because, Miss Byrne, to the great sorrow of the both of us, my saving you means that you are my responsibility until another steps forward to take over that role. Should you get yourself killed out here through sheer force of foolishness, it is a stain upon my character as well as your own. Now, will you come with me, or will you force me to drag you?"

    **

    When Theodora Byrne wakes up one morning, no longer in her cozy modern bed, but adrift at sea - and on a sea that's home to pirates, both undead and living, no less - she has no choice but to rely on the charity, and the eventual kindness, of Captain James Norrington if she wants to survive. She has no way of knowing the feelings that kindness will soon foster...nor what she'll be willing to risk for a chance to save him from his tragic fate before the end.

    Summary

    Sybil was a teenager when she wished with all she had that she might wake up in Middle-earth, able to right the wrongs she perceived in its story. Whatever power granted her wish didn’t seem to think she’d need any memory of her old home to help her once there. A decade later, when she stumbles across the Boromir in the wilderness, will she be able to fulfil the goal she no longer has any recollection of?

    Summary

    “I really don’t like the look of this,” Óin muttered, more to himself than to anyone in particular, and the déjà vu hit her like a war hammer to the chest. She’d received one, from the orcs in the battle, so she knew all too well what it felt like.

    Kink-Meme fill
    Thorin/Bilbo, Thorin feels like a creepy old pervert
    (Anonymous)

    B: Is it a species thing? Can't be cavorting with hobbit or some such?
    T: No, that is it isn't common, but it's hardly unheard of for dwarves to couple outside of their race.
    B: So it's due to my being male?
    T: Ha! No.
    B: Then I've no idea what the problem is!
    T: You are very... petite.
    B: ...what.
    T: And your face is possibly smoother than even a dwarven babe's.
    B: Now just because I can't become a furry badger like you all-
    T: You could pass for a tween if you hid your ears!
    B: A tween? When I'm just past fifty? Hardly!
    T: Oh gods! You practically are a dwarven babe!
    B: What are you-
    T: Durin forgive me, I have managed to become a lecher before a king!
    B: Oh hell...

    In summary, Thorin finds his attraction to Bilbo to be really inappropriate because he's seemingly young by dwarven standards. Bilbo tries to understand but doesn't get the big deal and just wants to make-out, jeez.

    (And you can ditch the dialogue, I was just being silly.)
