    Summary

    A lyrical reaction to commonplace spelling errors and word mix-ups in the English language. It is supposed to be funny, but really, it's pretentious and precocious in the worst ways imaginable, written on a pedestal of smugness that has yet to meet its equal. Better you scroll past this and don't click on the title above. I mean, typos cannot possibly be that amusing, right?

    Summary

    Liu Yang has grown up a disciple of the Lan Sect, hidden up on the clouded mountain by their honored elder who protects and shelters all of them from the world below. His life has been peaceful, he has never doubted that he belongs here in the Cloud Recesses. But there are strange things that he cannot explain, his certainty that the honored elder should not walk alone, should not look so sad when he thinks no one is looking. The same certainty as the memories that are his, but not, and the dreams that run out of order and time. Reincarnation is never a simple thing.

    For the Lan Wangji Birthday Serenade hosted by Pocketful of Recs.

    Art done by the amazing Baph.

    Summary

    After his death at the first siege of the Burial Mounds, Wei Wuxian is thrown back in time to when he was nine years old, just before Jiang Fengmian took him to Lotus Pier with its wavering affection and unpayable mountain of debts. He decides to take the second chance he has been offered, to live freely and without regrets.

    As it turns out, a life without regrets involves:
    1. Avoiding all attempts to be adopted so you can launch your career as a rogue-cultivating-assassin, while
    2. Juggling a hit-list comprised of the cultivation world’s Who’s Who, and
    3. Desperately missing your not-boyfriend who picked the worst ever timing to confess his undying love for you.

    Murder and mayhem to follow.

    Summary

    "Oh no," thinks Feemor, "a fellow Jedi in distress!"

    "Ouch," thinks Mand'alor Jaster Mereel.

    In which Nerd Jaster's love for larping brings on a case of serious mistaken identity and he gets spirited away to the Jedi Temple.

    Not that he is complaining, he's getting free access to the Archives (score!), copious amounts of ade (double score!!) and highly engaging discourse with fellow history-enthusiasts (triple score!!!)

    Summary

    So, it didn’t start out like this.

     

    Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-

     

    So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.

     

    It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:

    “ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”

    --

    A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.
