    Summary

    “I couldn’t really help but pop by. And I do have to say, it is so good to finally meet you.” They drawled, lifting a hand adorned with sharp red nails and placing it gently on his arm.

    “Uhm...” Hob mumbled intelligently. “Excuse me, but who are you?”

    “Me?" Red lips streched impossibly wider. "You may call me Desire, my dear.”


    Or: It really isn’t Desires fault that Dream is so easily ruffled. Especially when all they were doing was to flirt with a certain immortal.

    Summary

    It came sudden. His friends head snapped around, fanthomless eyes staring directly at him. One pale hand reached out and took hold of his arm, fingers as long as spider-legs which dug themselves painfully into his flesh.

    “Find me.”

    Hob awoke with sweat sticking to his brow, breath caugh in his lungs, with shaking hands he pushed back his fringe.

    And stared.

    There on his arm, just below his left elbow and clearly visible on his tan skin were indents, a row of half-moons, remnants from spindly fingers with long nails, leaving in their wake quickly fading marks.


    What if Dream of the Endless had retained a small fraction of his power while being held captive by Roderick Burgess?
    What if his power had been just enough to keep sending small messages to the only man that had ever dared to call him “friend”?

    Summary

    Damian doesn’t understand that Bruce and his family do not expect him to be perfect.
    How does a 13 year old reconcile a childhood built on discipline, punishment, and survival with a home where mistakes aren’t punished but… forgiven?
    At Wayne Manor, failure doesn’t mean weakness it means learning. But Damian’s instincts don’t recognize that language yet. Every misstep still feels like it carries consequences. Every hesitation feels like danger. Even kindness can feel suspicious, like it’s hiding something sharper underneath.
    Bruce tries to bridge the gap in quiet ways through patience more than lectures, through presence more than pressure. The others in the family approach Damian differently: some with humor, some with openness, some with an ease that unsettles him more than hostility ever did. They give him space he doesn’t know how to fill, and care he doesn’t quite trust yet

    Summary

    Just a year into his search for the Avatar, Prince Zuko is swept off his ship during a fierce storm. Heartsick and alone, he eventually makes his way to a certain forest in the Earth Kingdom. After defending himself from Fire Nation soldiers using his bending, Zuko is captured by Jet, who is delighted to have an ashmaker for a prisoner.

    When Aang, Katara, and Sokka arrive, it's too late; Zuko is left with no name, no humanity, and no sanity.

    This fic has been described as an "angst cake with sprinkles of humor and sweetness on top."
