"It was an accident."
That was what Zuko had said to his crew when he used an element he hadn't been meant to. He wasn't the Avatar. The Avatar was supposed to be in the Earth Kingdom, hidden by its walls.
Unless the old Avatar had died long ago ... and had already been replaced fifteen years ago.

Summary
He kept his voice steady, locking eyes with Sebastian. "And what do you want?"
"To devour you."
"In what way?"
Sebastian nosed his way along Ciel's neck, inhaling deeply. "Literally. Carnally. Spiritually- it's all the same in the end, no?"
Ciel placed his hand on Sebastian's cheek, pulling his face back into view. He kept his voice a hushed whisper, almost afraid that God would hear him should he be too loud. "I know what I want."
"And what is that?"
"To be devoured."

Aziraphale and Crowley take them in.

Lots of feels. Be ready to hate the Dowling arents with a burning passion.
Not yet complete. Possibly discontinued.

Summary
“Steve, you don't know a damn thing about that guy. The fact that you're even considering keeping him in your house is crazy.”
“I don't care.” Steve glanced over at the stranger, his face softening when he saw him sinking back into the couch cushions and gripping his backpack so tightly. “Sam, the guy looks like no one's been nice to him for years. How am I supposed to be okay with just sending him off somewhere?”
Sam sighed heavily and looked heavenward. “I swear to God, if I come by tomorrow and find you dead in your bed, I'm gonna find a way to bring you back to life just to kill you again.”
OR – in which former army captain, current farmer Steve Rogers finds a bruised and battered and dirty stranger who remembers nothing and doesn't speak in his barn. He takes him in, despite his friends' advice not to, and helps him recover. It's not easy. Especially not when, along the way, feelings get involved.

Double Agent Vader by Fialleril
Fandom: Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Original Trilogy
06 Dec 2017
Summary
The one where Vader turned double agent for the Rebellion about three years after ROTS, and Leia is now his primary contact with the Rebellion.
This is a collection of oneshots that all fit into the same universe, but posted in no particular order. Updated when the muse strikes me.
Alternate summary, according to TV Tropes: A man attempts to escape slavery by turning into one of his culture heroes, teaching his daughter how to do magic, killing people, and flower arranging.

Summary
Izuku Midoriya's Quirk was...dangerous. Since the age of four he knew what true nightmares were made of. Demons were the soldiers of hell, and they made it their mission to terrify him for fun. Peeling skin, black sillouhettes, and grating screams that froze him in place where only a part of it. Their words and dark hymns followed him, crushing his body and soul.
But not as much as his mother did. Inko was prone to using her fists and venomous words to beat him down, and she was worse than the demons who followed him day and night.
"God does not shine upon you,"
The demons repeated it like a mantra, and they were all right. God hated them all, the fallen wingless angels who he damned for eternity. He loathed Izuku too, the boy who could see them. Izuku was cursed with an uncontrollable Quirk, but he tamed those demons. They were his, and his alone.
God sneered at him, and he smiled devilishly back. God had given the demons exactly what they needed...
Izuku Midoriya. A King.

Bookmarker's Notes
Completed [✔️]
Read [✔️]
- bkdk is more of a background thing instead of main focus
- deku's BADASS quirk: can control ice-cold hellfire, control darkness demons, summon demon-Dabi, can fly with his black feathered wings, can transform further which gives him enhanced mobility/senses/strength (It seems like), darkened sclera & gold irises, demon king horns, and claws
- his adoptive family becomes: Dad-zawa, (aizawa sensei), Dad-zashi (present mic), brothers with Hitoshi, and they take in Eri too
- note: a LOT of graphic torture, villain attacks, abuse, pain, and suffering, like up until chapters 60 to 70ish before it tapers off and Izuku can really work on getting better and becoming a great hero.
- Really good story tho. -

Summary
Astarion isn't used to kindness without having to pay a price for it. Especially after having his mind infected with a parasite, and meeting others who also suffer from it, he wouldn't think there'd be any inch of hospitality. Then he meets HER; she who smiles and laughs even after seeing the face of death at her door. One would believe a wayward soul like hers would be easy to pray upon, and that is certainly what Astarion plans to do. Still...there's something about her.

Bookmarker's Notes
A beautiful series about falling in love and learning to love each other (and one self) regardless of past trauma and insecurities.
A favourite series and a must-read. Read all the tags and trigger-warnings (both Tav/Maeve and Astarion have plenty of trauma on their own) and I promise this series won't disappoint!
