Summary
When Merlin is caught trying to help a wrongly convicted man, Arthur claims responsibility and takes the punishment for him. While Merlin struggles to process what Arthur has sacrificed for him, Arthur finds himself having to reconsider his relationship with his father, his kingdom, and the people he has sworn to protect.
OR
The guards took this as their cue, and on Uther’s order Merlin felt his shirt torn from his body with a sound all too much like tearing flesh for comfort. Stood only in his worn brown breeches and weathered boots, he could feel for the first time how fiercely the sun beat down on his bare skin: how exposed he was, with nothing but air between his unprotected back and the whip.
And he was terrified.
It was then that another voice was raised above the crowd: one voice, in all that discontented hush, that dared to ring out above the rest.
“Father! It was me. I ordered him to do it.”

Summary
Arthur could see his father glaring down - face red and eyes narrowed as he looked at Merlin with clear distaste.
"Once this over, sorcerer...I’ll burn you."
"You’ve already tried that," Merlin’s voice answered and Arthur had to bite his fist to keep from making any noise. “You need to accept you can’t kill me… Hand me that blanket, please.”
“I’m sure there must be some method… Beheading?”
“No, we tried that.”
“Hanging?”
“I just sort of... Swung there, remember?”
There was another pause.
“I should have made you keep that dragon below the castle so I could feed you to it.”
“Kilgharrah? He won’t eat me, but if you want to torture me than making me listen to his nonsense for an hour might do it.” Merlin said and there was a soft sigh from the other end of the room. “I’m glad you agreed to help me though. Usually I have to do the grunt work of saving Arthur myself.”
“I can’t wait to kill you.”
Or
Uther finds out about Merlin’s magic, but can’t seem to kill him. Merlin is just trying to protect Arthur. They become a begrudgingly effective duo. Arthur doesn't understand why they think he isn't noticing this.

Summary
Iron Man decides it's time to reveal his identity to Steve and the Team. But just as he's about to pull off the mask he learns just how much his team hates their benefactor, Tony Stark.
“Gosh, Clint, tell me how you really feel about my boss,” Iron Man said, tossing a new communicator to him from the box.
Clint caught it but barely even looked at it. “Hey I’m serious. I feel really bad for you. I can’t even stand being in the same room as Stark for more than a few minutes. His ego is the size of this building. Natasha and I were just talking last week about how much we wish you were payrolled with Shield instead of him. He’s shady.”Series

Summary
The very day that Edwin finally admitted his feelings after years of sailing together, a salt-eroded duo bound by water and wood and iron ever since Edwin had saved Charles’ life on their first ship, was the last time that Charles got to see Edwin.
Charles can't imagine that Edwin is dead. In fact, he refuses to believe Edwin’s dead.
Charles needs Edwin to be alive. There is no world in which Edwin Payne is dead and Charles Rowland is alive.
It’s the reason Charles, after waking up alone on a ship filled almost entirely with guys bigger and tougher than him, had scratched and bit and fought, even though he’d long had his sword and his baton taken away.
Charles had exactly one hour of freedom after he woke up to fight like that, because they’d pinned him down and locked an iron collar around his neck, and his ability to escape after that went down to absolutely fucking zero.
(When Esther Finch's ship raids theirs, Charles and Edwin are separated. Edwin will do anything to get back to Charles and save him from Esther. Meanwhile, Charles finds solace in Monty, Esther's son, who he finds is as trapped as he is.)

Summary
“Charles,” Edwin said. Then, louder, when Charles only nodded in response, “Charles! I’m sorry. I—”
“Edwin, don’t. Don’t you dare—”
“I sincerely wish we could have been friends for longer,” he said.
Charles looked crushed before he’d even finished speaking. He tried to get a better hold on Edwin’s suit jacket, but he had no footing, dangling in the middle of the train as he was.
Edwin let go.
Or: When David the Demon opens a portal on the train in an attempt to escape being exorcised from Crystal, Edwin gets inadvertently dragged back to Hell, leaving Charles and Crystal behind.

Summary
The facts, as Edwin understands them, are thus:
1. Edwin Payne spent 7 decades in hell
2. Edwin Payne spent the majority of those years being ripped apart by a spider demon meade of doll heads
3. On Tuesday 12 March, 2024, the Dead Boy Detectives investigated an old railway station on the outskirts of York which was home to a nest of unnaturally fast and magical spiders being bred by a local mage for unknown purposes.
4. Approximately 5 minutes after entering the nest, Edwin Payne began to experience the following symptoms: shortness of breath, blurred vision, shaking hands, a curious sensation as if something very large was trying to crack ribs he does not have by squeezing him in its fist.In which Edwin's trauma catches up with him and he finds the whole thing quite tedious.

Summary
Zuko is just trying to survive Boiling Rock prison. He didn't make it out on time on the Day of Black Sun and frankly, he's lucky to be alive. His escape attempts have proven futile and he doesn't have any allies to speak of here. His best bet is keeping his head down and trying to survive.
Sokka is just here to break his dad out. It's his fault his dad was captured and he needs to fix this. His plan is working well enough so far; he's made it here, he's disguised as a guard, no one suspects him, now he just has to find his dad and get out.
Blue eyes meet gold. A flash of recognition. Shit just got a whole lot more complicated.

Summary
Suddenly, something tugged at the arm of his robe and he startled, nearly dropping the bread he was holding. He turned around, ready to defend himself but he froze when saw the young girl staring down at him where he was kneeling by the pond.
”Can you help me find my mom?” She said, her fingers gripping the fabric of his sleeve tightly, eyes big and bright.
Zuko blinked.

Summary
“He imagined Zuko kneeling before his own father, a man who didn't have any reservations about hurting a child, begging in the same way. He imagined his own son being this scared of fathers. He threw up.
Watery bile from weeks on prison food spilt through his lips and he was hacking, choking on grief and horror. War had filled his lungs with smaug and ash and as he gasped for air through tears he couldn’t care less for his own misery, only that of the boy before him.”

“I, uh…” Zuko shifted in his seat. “Well…” He gestured vaguely, hands following the movement of his wrists. “Yes,” he settled on finally, averting his eyes. “I’ve met my soulmate.”
“What?” Sokka leaned forward interestedly, ignoring the soft ache behind his ribcage. “Is it that goth chick? Mel?”
“Mai,” Zuko snapped. “And...no, it’s not her.”
“Then who?” Suki asked. “Do we know her?”
“Yes—No. It doesn’t matter.”
“You don’t have to tell us, Zuko—” Katara started.
“Good!” Zuko said, standing up. “Because I don’t want to!”

Summary
Zuko was probably more involved in the gossip around the palace than he had any right to be.
It’s not his fault, it’s really not. It’s just that sometimes he’s sitting in the kitchens (the best place to get the gossip) drinking tea and trying to relax for once, and some of the kitchen staff will start gossiping where he can still hear them. He doesn’t really try to listen in; it’s not his place and he won’t judge the staff based on whatever rumors are running around, but Spirits is it interesting. He tries not to listen too much, or get too invested in it though. Gossip is gossip after all, and rumors hardly ever turn out to be true.
But Zuko absolutely needs to know if Maya from the laundry room broke up with her piece of shit boyfriend.
Or, 5 times Zuko got invested in/meddled in palace gossip, and 1 time he was the subject of the gossip.

Summary
Under the leadership of Fire Lord Iroh, the Fire Nation has made every attempt to restore peace and make amends for the harm they inflicted during the Seventy-Year War. Their newest proposal is a literal proposal: a marriage to unite the Fire Nation and the Water Tribes.
The Fire Nation offers Prince Zuko’s hand.
The Water Tribes offer Princess Yue’s.
Sokka is apparently the only person in the world who has a problem with any of this.
