save a horse, ride a dothraki by meowrrrcunty
Fandoms: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (TV), A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin
06 May 2026
Tags
Summary
"Look at you now," Dunk sneered at himself, the sharp Dothraki inflection bleeding into his words. "You crush skulls for a drop of sour milk. You wear violence like a second skin."
He drew out the silver dragon clasp, its amethyst eyes glinting in the flames.
"And what of you, my Prince?" Dunk asked the trinket, his tone softening into an aching reverence. "How many years has it been? You aren't a haughty little boy on a horse anymore. Have you… have you changed too?"
Alpha Dunk was raised in the Dothraki by Khal Arbo (instead of Ser Arlan). The gentle giant from Flea Bottom became a warrior of the khalasar.
One day, he is reunited with the omega prince who once wanted him dead.

Summary
'Unbeknownst to Robby, however, he would not be leaving, and it was entirely due to that conversation. Because of that conversation, he was going to lose one of his doctors today.
He did not know this yet.
Nobody knew this yet.
They wouldn’t know until twenty minutes later, when Whitaker went to do that neuro check on the man in South 14.
AKA: What if instead of Emma who gets assaulted in Episode 11, it’s Whitaker, and then things go from bad to fucking catastrophic very, very quickly, because turns out Whitaker’s a very, very good liar, with a very, very large and very, very dangerous secret?
What if Robby’s guilt is strong enough to stop his doomed-ass sabbatical, due to the overwhelming responsibility he feels to 'atone for what he's done'?
What if Whitaker has a chronic condition and some really shitty history he never discussed with anyone, and Robby can't stop being a doctor, no matter how much he keeps trying?

The Cat Pastry Conundrum by midnighter777
Fandoms: 崩坏：星穹铁道 | Honkai: Star Rail (Video Game)
20 May 2024
Tags
Summary
“Ah, that.” Ratio nods, as if whatever the hell the pastry cat thing was…well, normal. It left Aventurine wondering if strange mutations running around were a common occurrence on the space station. The doctor gestures in the thing’s general direction. “That is one of Ruan Mei, member number 81 of the genius society’s creation. It’s simply a byproduct of one of her experiments and is harmless.”
The cat pastry's gelatinous body jiggles as it looks up at Aventurine, and blinks slowly. It warbles, and he has no idea what that sound was supposed to mean. “I’ll have someone pick it up in the meanwhile, and —“
”It can stay here.” Aventurine blurts before he can stop himself.
In which one of Ruan Mei’s cat pastries makes its way into Aventurine’s room, and he ends up caring for it with the help of a certain doctor.

Summary
When he was twelve years old, Alhaitham almost drowned out at the sea after series of unfortunate events. However, instead of being swallowed by the deep, merciless ocean, he was saved by an angel with a crimson-colored tail.
Now, fifteen years later and as an esteemed marine biologist, Alhaitham still didn't let go of the idea of finding his mysterious savior, even though everyone around him tells him he probably imagined it.
But, during one of his underwater research missions, their paths will finally intertwine again...

Operation Sympathy: Resounding Failure by Rainbowkittyblossomwings

Summary
Cyno and Alhaitham don't get along, and that worries Lumine and Paimon. Cyno clearly doesn't fully trust Alhaitham, and Alhaitham clearly doesn't care enough to try to get along. So it's up to her and Paimon to smooth things out and make them like each other, so they're not at each other's throats while saving Nahida.
So Lumine throws herself into a desperate plot to make Cyno pity Alhaitham, in hopes of that making him trust him and stop viewing him as a spy for the Sages.
Naturally when it comes to Alhaitham's hardships, that inevitably turns to his massive fight with Kaveh, and to Lumine's horror she learns both Cyno and Alhaitham happen to know this Kaveh guy.And more importantly, both of them refuse to believe that the other one truly knows Kaveh. Because if Kaveh was truly Cyno's friend, wouldn't he have mentioned Alhaitham to Cyno? And wouldn't he have spoken about Cyno to Alhaitham?
Kaveh's desperation to keep two factions of his life separate, and for people to not learn Alhaitham is his roommate, including his friends, ends up hurting him, as much to Lumine's horror Cyno and Alhaitham are sent into a spiral of one-upping each other on Kaveh knowledge.

“No no, it's not for me. I don't like sweets,” Aventurine says.

Summary
Alhaitham has recently come to realize three things:
- He is in love with Kaveh.
- He would like to kiss Kaveh, hold Kaveh’s hand, go on dates with Kaveh, and become boyfriends with Kaveh.
- He has absolutely no idea how to go about doing any of that.
Having nobody to confide in, he resorts to writing to Sumeru’s most popular advice column, The Wanderer’s Advice, for help. Before long, seemingly everyone in Sumeru City gets swept up in the story of Ardent Admirer and their clueless beloved.
Everyone except Kaveh, for better or for worse.

Summary
Let it be known that Alhaitham, in all his years of being, could never have seen Kaveh coming. Never could have imagined that an intelligent, kind, and broke architect would stumble into the gold-gilded lamp he called his prison and set him free of it. And he certainly never thought he would fall in love the way he had for those carmine eyes and aureate locks.

Summary
Of course the Mobei elders would want an heir. It was the natural progression of monarchy. Kings married and mated, producing children who would in turn inherit the throne. That’s how it had been back in his own world, so why would his fantasy world be any different?
What confused Shang Qinghua was that they were demanding he be the one to review the names and encourage Mobei-Jun to pick one. Sure, the ice demon king had rejected all previous suitors, but how would Shang Qinghua be able to convince the bratty king to pick a mate?
Shang Qinghua was just…
He was just human, and a beta at that. How could he tell Mobei-Jun which omega to take for a mate?

Summary
“Tell me what’s on your mind,” Alhaitham prompts.
He doesn’t want to. He would rather eat his own hand than give Alhaitham more ammunition against him, but what choice does he have? Racking his brain for solutions has turned up nothing. If he doesn’t ask for help, Ebeid and Hilmi and the others will never get their library. His dignity is a small sacrifice to make for their education.
“If I tell you, you have to promise not to ask any follow-up questions.”
“That seems quite impossible. When it comes to you, I always have to clarify.”
Kaveh ignores the slight and lowers his voice. “I need to borrow some mora.”
Kaveh runs into trouble when he agrees to help build the library he designed for Aaru Village. If he and Alhaitham can fix the problem, perhaps they can mend their relationship in the process.

“Let’s make a bet.”
“A bet?” Tighnari reiterates, an ear of his flicking at the tip.
“Enter the tournament with me.” He says softly. Their gentle, warm breaths intermingle between them; lips so close—if he just leant forward— “If I win, no matter how ludicrous, will you listen to me until the end?”Yae Publishing House is holding a Genius Invokation TCG tournament in Sumeru to promote a new volume of King of Invokations releasing soon. Those of notable esteem seem to be invited, yet no one knows why. But more importantly, will Cyno be able to say what he wishes to or will he be decrowned before he earns his chance?
