Summary
Maxine has built her life on control of information, of appearances, and of herself. A Chimera capable of shifting into any form, she exists as a weapon in the shadows, valued for her power but never truly seen. When she is tasked with training the Illyrian shadowsinger Azriel, her carefully maintained distance is shattered by the sudden realization that he is her mate, an unchangeable bond she neither expected nor has time to confront as war looms. Choosing pragmatism over instinct, Maxine pushes the bond aside, focusing instead on her role in the court’s growing conflict. Yet as the years of war unfold, filled with espionage, shifting identities, and constant danger, Azriel becomes the one constant in her unstable world, the only one who can truly recognize her, no matter the face she wears. Their connection deepens quietly beneath the surface, forcing Maxine to grapple not only with the war around her, but with an unrelenting mating bond with the one person who never thought he deserved it, yet would always find her.
Basically, Azriel has a mate, but they hide their relationship for YEARS, and no one has any idea.

Summary
The Time War had ended and the Doctor was alone in his TARDIS until he heard someone knocking at the door. The impossibility of a human girl floating through space was not what he had been expecting. He invites her to follow him through all of time and space and she gladly follows along, for what else should an immortal girl with no memories do? After years of traveling together, they find themselves in one adventure neither could have seen coming. They are trapped, in a cave, for an unknown amount of time. It's no big deal, they're both immortal, but can the Doctor handle living in one place, trapped in stone, for centuries? Will the solitude get to him or can Maxine pull him from his despair enough to survive and maybe leave with something they didn't have before?
Little drabble (I say little ha) of mine that caught my fancy. The doctor gets stuck in a cave with an immortal companion and they develop a relationship. More than half of it is a background/intro to the character. :)

Summary
Isla was seven when she met Aragorn. They were both raised in Rivendell where they became best friends and did everything together until he left after finding out his true name. Years later they reunite in Rohan where they begin to travel together. Decades pass when Gandalf comes to ask them to help out a hobbit and to work to prevent the darkness from spreading. When she realizes her feelings for a certain ranger it will become a battle amidst herself, but what happens when their unknown future pushes them into revealing things they otherwise wouldn't have? Does her place as the tenth walker in the Fellowship come with consequences or will she be able to join them with little worry? And where does she hide those daggers??
Aragorn/original character because I wanted something I couldn't find :) I have no idea where this is going but we're going to have fun doing it
