Summary
“... Do you?”
Magnus startled out of his reverie, “What?"
“Regret it. Leaving, that is.”
Alexander was tentative, his voice a low, shaky whisper.
Magnus sighed. They hadn’t talked about it. The way he begged.
He never asked for anything. He took it like any pirate worth their salt. Even as a child he understood the weakness that came with begging for food. How easily someone would turn the earnest pleads of a child into something dirty and shameful. He didn’t beg for his life when the man he thought was his father tried to kill him. He screamed, he flailed, he raged, but he never begged. His life wasn’t a bargaining tool, and it wasn’t for that man to take.
He killed before he begged. Yet that night he begged for Alexander.

Summary
Barnaby tilted his head, perplexed, “You’re literally on the roof of my building.”
“Why are you on the roof of your building then?” Barnaby rolled his eyes, what was he, five?
“Because I am.” He stepped forward, “But you, you’re a wanted man. Shouldn’t you be hiding in some dark hole like all the other vigilantes?”
Tiger let out a strangled laugh, rocking back on the balls of his feet, “I mean I don’t know if I’m that attractive.”
“Not that type of wanted, old man.” Barnaby rolled his eyes once again. He took back every nice thing he thought of the man. He was an annoyance.
“Ah well, I haven’t been caught yet so…”
“ Yet, that’s the keyword.”
“Alright, then what’s stopping you from activating your hundred power and turning me in right now?” Tiger gestured wildly.
“There are no cameras.”
“...Of course.”
Or
Apollon Media didn't buy out TopMag and Kotetsu decides that sometimes being a hero means being a vigilante. After all, it doesn't matter how people are saved, as long as they are.

Summary
Lance wanted to run. He wanted to burst through the doors, take his lion and seclude himself on a far-off moon where no one would find him
“ENOUGH.” Allura slammed her hands down on the table, silencing the Coalition with her booming voice “Complacency has no place in war. If you want to lie down as Zarkon’s army nibbles at our territory bit by bit, then they will have ample time to devour everything in their wake. Wait until your supply lines are compromised and your children are starving before you preach to me about how thin our forces are spread. We cannot give in." Allura took a deep breath, “We put it to a vote. All in favor of abandoning the System say ‘aye’,” Half of the Coalition sounded off, “All in favor of taking action?” The next half sounded off along with Allura.
“Lance?” Allura’s calm voice shocked him out of his boredom, “You are our tiebreaker, what do you say?”
Right. Voting.
“Aye, as you said, there’s no complacency in war.” He raised his right hand and gave the Coalition a winning smile, “We can’t back down without a fight, now can we?”

Summary
“Zagreus,” Pat tries to avoid using his real name, most of the time. It makes keeping his distance harder than it needs to be. “I just told you that I would very much enjoy having Achilles Nereius Pelides of Phthia, commander of the Myrmidons and greatest of all the Greeks, on his knees before me naked save for an admittedly splendid dog collar and you said …‘neat.’”
“Should I not have?” Zagreus looks concerned for the first time. “I’m sure he’d be quite fetching—I mean—I didn’t mean it like—“ Zagreus’s flush is back in full force, but he perseveres. “I think the better question is why you seem so ashamed of it."

Summary
When Hua Cheng loses all his memories of Xie Lian, afflicted by a tricky curse, there’s only one way to get them back: Xie Lian has to get Hua Cheng to kiss him.
It shouldn’t be too difficult, right?
Xie Lian has a plan.
“Greetings, Chengzhu,” Xie Lian said. “Apologies for the intrusion. Actually, I’ve been gifted to you by the heavens as a…”
His voice caught.
“I mean, to—”
Xie Lian’s cheeks suddenly felt hot, and his palms grew damp under the rope binding his arms together. Beneath Hua Cheng’s piercing stare from above, he lost his cool.
“As your,” he stammered. “Um, as—well—if you want, I’ve been sent to you as—I’m here to be your—”- Language:

Summary
“Is that..?” Prism looks over at Flambae. He's staring, mouth half open in shock.
The man dressed in a black skin tight super suit with a cowl and an unmistakable M stretched across his chest looks around the room.
“It's gotta be Prime, right?” Malevola puts down her sword. “Or Astral? Maybe?”
The man chuckles. “Not quite.” He pulls off his cowl to reveal a head of brown hair greying at the temples with a familiar notch in his ear. He has a pretty severe scar running through his right eyebrow and down his cheek.
“Holy shit.” Prism’s mouth drops open.
A time travel AU where an older Robert comes through a time portal.
