Her Brother's Keeper
A CatCo Magazine exclusive by Kara Danvers

“Now,” Lena says, physically pushing her keyboard away on her desk, as though trying to distance herself from the temptation to keep working. “What can I do for you?”
Anyone who has met Lena is familiar with these words. They are her go-to greeting; practiced, polite, and most importantly, meant in earnest. A thesis statement: Lena Luthor wants to help.

Summary
"Wisdom, compassion, strength," Aden quotes the pillars of a Commander's essence to you, "but a plank cannot be supported on only three columns. Its integrity would be compromised. You forgot one, Heda."
"Did I? And which pillar would that be, Aden?" You ask as you both pull away from your hug. His calm eyes glisten knowingly as he smiles. Aden reaches out, takes your hand, and squeezes before nodding.
"Love," he murmurs as he glances back at the doorway. "Don't Hedas deserve love, too?"
orLexa finally makes peace with her past and Clarke is brave and accepts her feelings.

this heart, fossilized and silent (once was tender and once was violent) by Chrmdpoet

Summary
Clarke is only three days into being a runaway when she realizes that she did not fully think this through. When she walked away from Camp Jaha, she took only herself, a handgun with limited ammunition, and the gnawing guilt inside her. Three days without food, water, fresh clothing, or bedding of any kind, however, and she is painfully aware of how foolish that decision had been.

Summary
The first time she laughs at you, you are sure your heart will stop beating. You have listened to her answer questions about Germany, say a few things in the language like she’s been speaking it since birth, joke with your teammates at the table. You have taken notice of the way her doe eyes light with passion when she talks about Frankfurt and her family, and you’ve fallen in love with the way she begins to talk out of the corners of her mouth and slip into a slight accent as she talks longer and longer about her home away from home. You’ve watched her giggle her betrayal as Heather Mitts tries to pull a prank on Hope, and you’ve found yourself studying the smallest thing—the curve of her hands clasped together on the table, the heavy blink of her eyes as she admits she’s a little jet-lagged, the crinkle of her nose when she laughs. And you realize that you want to be the one making her laugh.

Spin the Rails by Ficsandmusings, ProgWords
Fandom Avatar: Legend of Korra, Avatar: The Last Airbender
11 Jun 2017
Summary
There have been many lies in Asami Sato's life. Some she lived, and others fed to her. But, since you can't stop progress anymore than you can stop the world from spinning, unraveling the truth, about herself and everything around her, always takes a back seat to the current crisis. Of course, the strongest and most debilitating lie of all is the one she forces upon herself.
Since, to focus on herself would be unforgivable. Selfish. Arrogant. If so many are suffering, how can she allow herself to grieve? To put her own well-being first? To be happy? She can't. Not yet. But maybe, once all of this is over...
Maybe.
And yet, no matter how hard she fights, or how clever she is, she can never turn that "maybe" into "now".
This is the story of how Asami Sato went beyond the impossible, time and time again.
From her lowest point to her greatest triumph. Drowning in denial and grief to shattering the laws of reality to find happiness.
How she turned "maybe" into "forever".
Loosely inspired by the American folk tale of "John Henry the Steel Driving Man"

The Engineer's Guide to Dating the Avatar by wegglebots

Summary
Sometimes, Asami would worry that she had somehow “broken” Korra.
After all, Korra fumbling with her words and getting very flustered was very unexpected. But being the engineer that she is, she takes notes on just how to “handle” the avatar the way that only she can. It's a labor of love, really.
(One shots revolving Asami and Korra and their inevitable romance post book 4. Will get updated as I can be assed to write. May include mature content in the future. Also posted in tumblr by user acetheninja01. That is me. Do not be alarmed.)

"I loved all of them. But you knew that I would, didn't you? I don't know how, but you knew that I wanted all of these things as a little girl. How did you know? I mean, I never told anyone about some of these things. Well, except for…" Emma's eyes go wide as the thought strikes her again, the same one she'd had days before. "Oh god! Tell me you aren't Santa Claus."

Summary
Immediately after Emma breaks the Dark Curse by giving True Love's kiss to Henry and Rumpelstiltskin unleashes magic from the well of wishes with the Essence of Magic he stole from Maleficent, Regina, although reunited with her magical powers, is alone in the empty mayoral mansion on Mifflin Street, dejected and mourning the foreseeable loss of her son to Emma Swan.
As she's expecting, later that night, the visit of the Savior and her righteous parents coming for revenge, it's the not so dead Maleficent who visits her instead.
