Kyouko and Gokudera get kidnapped by some mafia underlings and have to decide how to handle the situation.

Summary
Eurydike knew immediately which one the god-born was. Him and his swagger weren’t hard to miss. He was sitting at the furthest table on the terrace - the one closest to the sea - and he was dressed in a black bomber jacket and sunglasses. The breeze played through his dark curls; his eyes were hidden under sunglasses, but were no doubt some brilliant colour like all the god-born. He had his legs stretched out and his feet propped up on a battered guitar case. Silhouetted against the waves, it made for a handsome picture.
Eurydike scoffed. It was late spring. It wasn’t cold enough to need a jacket and it wasn’t bright enough to need sunglasses.
--
Just a modern retelling of an old story.

Summary
Achilles stood up. He had been expecting the stranger since Megaera had stalked past him, elegant despite the anger and blood dripping from her.
An AU where Zagreus was raised by Demeter and ends up fighting his way through the Underworld regardless - just in the opposite direction. Guarding the entrance out is the terrifying monster Cerberus, but guarding the entrance in is Achilles, best of Greeks. And he has strict orders not to let anyone in.

Summary
Her swan-mother keened. An abrupt sound, brief and feral; a sound passed down mother to daughter in an unbroken line. One day, the cygnet-princess thought, when her swan-mother died, she would make that same sound too.

Summary
Premise of this series:
Thorin becomes King Under The Mountain. He and Bilbo have fallen in love and Bilbo moves to Erebor.Tread Lightly concerns itself with their wedding, and Bilbo's relatives coming to visit for it. His tiny, adorable Hobbitling relatives.
Send Weekly is basically a collection of one-shots taking place in this AU, the majority of which are set during the time of LOTR. (Due to the events of Tread Lightly, the majority of the Fellowship are friends before the Quest begins and Frodo has been raised in Erebor; both facts have quite an effect on the original plot!)

Summary
It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up flat in the dirt, hands tied behind his back, bleeding. His head aches.
Wyll stands over him, uncharacteristically scared. "Astarion," he says, fast and frantic. "Are you back to yourself?"
There are two puncture wounds on his neck.
(It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up. The party says he attacked them. He does not remember this.)

Summary
All the children of the gentry are there to see it when Jude Duarte comes of age. As is customary for redcaps, she does so covered in blood. She’s not quite nineteen, a precocious age for one’s first kill, but no one is surprised. Everyone knows Jude is her father’s heir through and through. The elder of the twins by minutes, she might even be mistaken for human if it weren’t for the slitted eyes, cold and hard, that she inherited from the general.
—
AU where Cardan is a mortal desperate to earn a place in the court, even if it means blackmailing Jude, the redcap who's always had it out for him.
