Summary
The Ironclad and the Silent both have long hair. Long enough to need braiding if they want to keep it out of trouble. So, from time to time, they give each other a hand.
This particular time, the Regent and the Necrobinder are here too.

She's got a way (she got away) by janedoebutimnotdead for galacticwarmth

Summary
“Fine,” she spat, her voice trembling with rage. “Then I hope you cut deeper the next time. No one would care if you finished the job, you know?”
Madeline flinched as if she’d been slapped again, but she didn’t respond. She just stared at Helen with those fucking blue eyes, the same eyes that had once looked at her with trust and even love.
Helen sat up and looked at her with disgust, with the same hatred one might feel for a starving beggar in the middle of a big city. To Helen, Madeline had just become the most miserable being that had ever existed.
She finally turned on her heels and stormed out of the bedroom. But, before she could even leave the apartment, she stopped.
“I wish you never existed, Mad,” she whispered without even looking at her again.Aka: after a huge fight, Helen wishes that Madeline Ashton had never existed and her wish (for better or for worse) comes true.

i can’t find a way to understand (why i’m here again and again) by Notevenaproperword

Summary
Madeline squeezes her breasts and winces. She’s sitting in the ridiculously small toilet of her dressing-room in the Palace Theater with the atrocious notion that she might not be able to fit her growing chest in her costumes much longer. She sticks her thumbnail between her teeth and closes her eyes. The rest of her is fine, more than fine actually. Her skin is softer, her hair seems lit from within and she isn’t putting on weight. Only her breasts have begun to inflate. They are sore too. This is the main problem.
It is, Madeline tells herself firmly, the only problem.
OR
Madeline might be pregnant, her only (apparent) hope is Helen. Everything goes wrong.Bookmarked by galacticwarmth

Summary
"... Frieren?"
A soft, melodic voice. His voice. She didn't realise how much it danced in her ears until she heard it again. She faced him, the torrential anxiety within her disappearing in a blink.
A calming smile was plastered on both of their faces, an expression they weren't expecting to wear upon their reunion. But there were no other expressions to make, because neither of them were particularly theatrical actors. As she thought, a tearful reunion didn't suit them at all.
"It's been a while," Himmel said.
The party reaches Aureole, and each of them split off to the people they needed to talk to the most, the dearest people in their lives that had long passed.

The Gilded Grimoire by tari_roo

Summary
The coffee shop/bookstore AU you didn't ask for, and probably don't need. Frieren runs an unsuccessful bookstore (mostly because she refuses to sell the books) but stays afloat because of the coffee shop inside the store. With top notch coffee and questionable baked goods, the Gilded Grimoire is her pride and joy. Himmel, returning from a long war, is in search of peace, good coffee and rare books. Its a cute-meet in the making - if Frieren can be persuaded to actually sell a book.

Summary
Suddenly, Stark’s gaze turns, meeting Fern’s own. She jumps, but she doesn’t bother looking away, pulling her expression into one of neutrality so she doesn’t seem like she was staring.
Not that it matters. Stark’s grin widens even more, if that’s possible, and he sends a little wave over that has Fern’s heart fluttering in her chest.
Biting down a smile of her own, she waves back.
or, 5 times fern pines for stark + 1 time she realises that her feelings might be mutual

Summary
She had thought she had finally hacked it. That was until she moved to Somerset Heights.
She is unraveling and her edges are fraying in the wind. All because of a blonde domestic housewife. She wishes she could laugh. Instead she grips the wheel tighter and lays her head on it. Resists the urge to smash it at least five times.
A metaphor of a moth drawn to a flame. Except, Madeline Menville is as powerful as the sun. And Helen burns. Unable to stop herself from being drawn by her radiance.

She has everything a woman can dream of: a husband and a house big enough for a family of six with a perfect lawn and picket fence.
She is the American Dream all those men fought so hard for in the second World War.
Still, she’s profoundly unsatisfied.

Summary
'She blinks. Once. Twice. Multiple times in rapid succession. Dries her hands, takes her glasses off and cleans them with her sleeve. The spot doesn’t disappear. It doesn’t grow either, mercifully, but remains maddeningly and perfectly in the centre-left of her visual field. Huh. That's… unusual. It’s as if something small and six-legged has crawled across her eyeball and taken a bite out of it while she slept. Fear constricts her ribcage, cold and sudden.
Is she going blind?'
Helen loses her eyesight over time. Madeline is there every step of the way.

Summary
She had whispered his name. Yes, she must have had. At least once, before the world dissolved in a pair of frightened blue eyes. Or perhaps she had screamed. Not his name, but she can recall an inhuman shriek near her and the burn of her throat, scorched earth but in skin.
Helen isn’t dead and she has woken to silence.OR
Seemingly boring Helen Menville leads a quiet life. Her days revolve around her husband, her cat, and the Broadway diva she’s sworn to get kicked out living across the courtyard. Her plan to ruin Madeline Ashton goes off-script, or does it?
