Day 3: Flowers “I promise you. I promise I’ll come back.” He promises, George thinks wistfully. He promises such a thing- to offer George with his word on something, to uphold it. It’s as if he’s saying that he’ll give the world to him, just for him. But somewhere is the lingering thought in George's mind is that he won't come back. That the cruel war that had riddled their land will take him too, and he will be left aching and worry-worn. George shivers at the thought. Of a life without him. “You promise?" That you’ll come home to me? And as if he heard those unspoken words. Dream beams at him. “I promise. You won’t even notice that I was gone, my love.” George lets out a wet and broken laugh at the overly romantic pet name that he associates with his beloved. Dream does so too, before pulling him back into his embrace. They stay there for a bit. The war can wait. “I promise I’ll be waiting.” (or, the war au with letters and oscar wilde quotes.)

Hermione Granger is a woman of intelligence and spirit. Draco Malfoy is a man of wealth and privilege. When they meet again, a decade after the second great wizarding war—they are not impressed. But when circumstances throw them together, dislike turns to attraction, attraction turns to passion and passion may turn into something more... If they can stay out of their own way and let love take its course. ~A modern-era, Dramione take on Pride & Prejudice~

Luffy smiled, “My treasure? You can have it, if you can find it. But you’ll never be able to.” Blades cut into his neck, and the mighty Pirate King took his last breath. And then he woke up. Or: Pirate King Monkey D. Luffy travels back in time. He decides he's going to mix things up. This should be on Ao3 and on no other platform. I love translations and you have my permission to post translations so long as my work and the translation stay on Ao3 and I am given the proper credits!

Pulling open his apartment door, he let out an involuntary shout when something was quite literally thrust into his chest hard enough to have him almost tip backwards. He managed to right himself while keeping hold of what had been shoved at him and looked up in time to see his neighbour striding back towards his apartment. “You’re going to fucking kill yourself.” His door slammed. Stiles blinked at the other man’s door, utterly confused, and looked down at what he was holding. It was a plastic bag, full of what felt like tupperware, which made no sense to Stiles because when had his neighbour broken into his house to steal his tupperware?

“Seriously, Adora. All that money for, like, holding hands in front of a camera? It can’t get easier than that. You endured me for like, ten years? I’m sure you can power through these four weeks.” She gets up and leans on the back of her chair, getting closer to Adora’s face. “Just don’t fuck it up and we’ll be fine.” Adora scowls at her and forces herself to not start another argument. Catra ignores it and turns away. “See ya later, girlfriend.” She says over her shoulder. Girlfriend. Adora shudders at that word. Only after Catra is gone Adora remembers they didn’t even plan anything out. She closes her eyes and rubs her temples again, taking another deep breath. Four weeks of pretending to be Catra’s girlfriend. Those are about to be the longest weeks of her life. * Fake dating college/modern AU!

On a gloomy day at Hyde Park, Colin Bridgerton fell off his horse. And Penelope Featherington fell in love. One heartbreak, a few years, and a series of unread letters later, Colin agrees to help his dear friend find a match in the marriage mart. What he does not agree to is falling for his own gambit. A story following the synopsis of season 3 . “It is aggravating,” he hisses. “To watch the woman, you desire with every bone in your body, dance around with other men,” his dark orbs meet her sapphire ones, “go on promenades, ignore your very being and dream of marrying someone who isn’t you.”

The only thing that can take Hermione's mind off of how much she loathes her repugnant Potions partner are the notes from her mysterious pen pal. And as for Pansy? She just wants to find a way to cast a permanent Silencio on Granger, and to reply to the charming stranger on the other end of her magical parchment. (aka the Pansmione "You've Got Mail" AU)

When Will needs to get his thoughts out of his head, he writes a letter he never intends to send. He addresses it to Mike, and tells him everything. Feeling lighter than he has in weeks and buoyed by the adrenaline of writing it all out, Will acts on an impulse and ends the letter with, "If you’d be willing to give me a chance, I’d be really happy to date you. If you’re open to trying it, please meet me in Castle Byers this Saturday at 2:00pm. I’m not asking for any promises, I’m not asking for forever or anything like that; all I’m asking is that you give me a chance. Come if you want; if not, I completely understand, no hard feelings, and I’ll never, ever mention this again." He forgets all about the letter, and the distinctive red envelope he stowed it in, until he turns around to find it missing. Now, Will has to think of some way to stop Mike from reading that letter - or should he wait at Castle Byers on Saturday at 2:00pm and pray for a miracle?

"I would like to marry," Penelope said bluntly. She looked him directly in the eye, daring him to disagree. "Right." Colin gave a slow nod of the head, clearly taken aback by the declaration. His eyes had gone wide, giving him a look that was reminiscent of cornered prey. It seemed that the heavens were intent upon tormenting her. "Not you," she managed to say evenly, although she felt tumultuous waves rocking the boat that was her composure. "No, of course not," he agreed hastily, embarrassment evident on his face. ----------------- (Set post S2. Some elements from the S3 synopsis, but not a prediction fic.)

Dear Student #15, I don’t want to fucking do this at all, but the guards and people running Tartarus are up my ass so here’s some basic shit I guess. You know I’m arrested, you know I’m a villain, you know they think I can be ‘reformed’ or whatever. Frankly, I don’t see a point in this, but it’s better than sitting on my ass all day staring at the wall. I won’t say much more considering this is my second attempt. My first draft was ‘too mean’ as they put it. Don’t bother answering. Insincerely yours,Inmate #03224 In an effort to create a rehabilitation program for villains, eight UA students take part in a pen pal trial run where they are assigned a random, anonymous villain to correspond with. Todoroki finds his pen pal to be startlingly similar to him

Zuko pulls away first. He stares at Sokka and raises his one brow.“You do realise,” he says dryly, “that you just instigated a major international incident?” Or: Sokka is impulsive. This is a problem. Especially when he ends up kissing the Fire Lord and immediately running away. Rated T for swearing.
