Summary
The Scarecrow notices when Dorothy can’t sleep. He notices, and he talks to her. About little nothings, at first, gradually building into conversations and familiarity.
Then one night, as if he's been building up to it, he says, very softly, “She's not as wicked as they say.“

Summary
Oscar, or rather the Wizard as he was calling himself, wasn't ready for fatherhood. But when Melena Thropp showed up at his door, he barely had a chance to get two words in, before she was shoving a baby into his arms, and disappearing into the night. And not just any baby. A green baby. He was all prepared to drop the kid off at the next orphanage, when a former employee of the Thropp Household shows up and offers her assistance. Together they set out to raise the child that was unlikely to be accepted by the world, while at the same time building the reputation and dominion of the Great and Powerful Wizard of Oz.

A Lesson of Her Own Making by chasingfigments for MuffinLance
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender

Summary
Katara steals four more lessons that week. Four more boys around her age who know the forms but don’t know the desperation of a true fight. They are bad at anticipating her movements and her decisions because Katara will never have the luxury of learning the way they did. She fights dirty, not fair, and their pride doesn’t let them understand that they’re in over their heads until it’s too late.
They leave her scrapes and bruises and cuts that fuel her healing sessions. When those are done, she goes back to their suite and resumes putting together a combat bending style from stolen pieces and her experience in the wider world.

Summary
It was still, in essence, just a loo-break. Crowley fully intended to get back to sleep in that forgotten countryside crypt before the year of 1832 was out. But in the meantime, chance had brought him to Paris. He was just a few hours too late to take credit for the insurrection, but right on time to meet a certain human by the banks of the Seine.
After hearing that human’s story, and relating to him far too much, what could Crowley possibly do but give good advice?

Mortality is for losers. So is time as a linear concept.
In other words, the entire planet is dead, Sakura is over five hundred years old, and she's bored as fuck.
Time-travel is clearly the only option.

Summary
How dare Criston –
How dare Alicent –
And even her own father –She’d been letting the Hightowers choose their battlefields for years now, since she was naught but a heartbroken girl of eight who had lost her mother and brother in a single day. She had been letting them make their moves without challenge, but no longer.
Alicent had worn a banner of War, and Criston had chosen his side.One should never poke a passive dragon, no matter how docile or pretty it appeared, lest they be faced with fire and blood.
(Or; Rhaenyra and her sad, gay husband Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss their way to getting what they want)

The trumpets play a jubilant tune, and everyone’s gaze is fixed on Otto.
His moment of triumph.
As Otto leads his daughter to the altar set at the end of the vaulted chamber of the Royal Sept, the bright and glorious future stretches before his eyes, glowing in the sunlight streaming through the stained windows of the Sept.

Summary
Hermes is in love with Percy but won’t say anything because he knows Percy deserves better than the drama that would come from a romantic entanglement with an Olympian.
Percy is in love with Hermes but won’t say anything because he knows his feelings would never be reciprocated.
Apollo and Triton plot to get them together, while Travis just wants to propose to his girlfriend.
Or an already stressful night is made even more so as both Percy and Hermes reflect on lessons about healing, moving on, and allowing themselves to love again.
At least it will be a memorable Winter Solstice.

Summary
There was a moment of silence, broken only by the soft plinks of water droplets falling onto the stone.
"Defeated by Monkey D Dragon," Crocodile sighed, eyes slipping closed. "What a joke."
"Luffy," the boy said, a propos of nothing.
Crocodile cracked one eye open, glancing at him. "Hm?"
"My name. It's not Dragon."
"I wasn't talking about-"
"Dragon would be a cool name tho," the boy scratched at his cheek. "But you’re gonna get defeated by Monkey D Luffy. Get your names straight, Gator Man!"
Crocodile snorted. "This's got to be the most hypocry-" He trailed off, the words only now registering in his mind. "...Monkey D Luffy."
Or, to quote a tumblr post from may, "Luffy calling Dragon mum bc Crocodile said he was his parent first and clearly there can only be one of each"

The wolf woman tells her, before anyone else. Your husband is dead.
Rhaella Targaryen is seventeen. Her son Rhaegar is three, seated on her lap, unaware or unconcerned by the dark-haired woman with glinting grey eyes. Her mother has been dead for a year; her father for five months. The rest of her relations perished at the fire of Summerhall, the same night her son was born.
And now Aerys is gone too. “Is my son in danger?”
The glint grows. The woman says, “Not while I’m here.”

Summary
Forty minutes into her book signing, Pepper’s hand is cramping up. Seeing herself perfunctorily smiling back at her from cover after cover after cover, is getting at her. It isn’t often that she wishes for someone to interrupt and insist on a photo. Or for one of these large, heavy bookcases to topple over and fall on top of her.
The next woman who shuffles up to her table, book clutched in her arms, might just be her selfie-saving-grace. She certainly has the wild-eyed look of starstruck-ness. Pepper smiles and holds out a hand to take the book from her.
The woman doesn’t relinquish it. “Ms. Stark,” she murmurs in a low voice. “My nephew Peter ran away. And I need the Avengers to find him.”
Pepper knows how to respond to requests like these. Kind but firm. Thirteen thousand people go missing in New York every year, and it’s heartbreaking, but the Avengers can’t possibly—
“Trust me,” the woman says. “You’ll want to hear me out.”Bookmarked by Atr_ox
