Summary
Dreams are gateways into a person’s psyche. Nightmares are cells that lock from the inside. But what if there is no escape? What happens when the only solution is to endure it? For Knuckles, the best solution was to keep it all contained. His pain and the shame, he kept them out of sight. From his friends, from the world, and from the ancient echidna he accidentally brought back.
Because some legacies are heavier than stone. And the deeper he seals the prison, the more pressure builds beneath the surface.

Summary
Season One picks up in the fallout of Deborah Vance’s explosive exit from late‑night. After Bob Lipka corners her with an ultimatum “Ava is out or the show is over.” Deborah refuses to bend. Instead, she detonates the truth live on air. “I am being forced to fire someone I love who has done nothing wrong. Just to make shareholders happy. Where is the line?” A line she never believed in until Ava. Deborah walks away from the show and disappears back into the quiet of Las Vegas. Ava stays behind in L.A. honoring the distance Deborah claims she needs until a simple vacation in Hawaii pulls her back into Deborah’s orbit. What should have been a getaway becomes a new residency in Singapore, and paradise quickly reveals it’s cracks. Ava watches the woman she loves unravel. Deborah drifts through each day in a haze of alcohol and denial, running from a truth she’s terrified to face while making decisions rooted in fear instead of the fire that once defined her. Ava is left trying to hold together a woman who has spent her entire life pretending she doesn’t need anyone.

Summary
Shane starts smoking at twenty-seven and gets addicted faster than he ever thought possible. Years later, after retirement and a long fight to quit, he and Ilya finally become fathers to a daughter named Katya. Four months later, Shane relapses.
Shane responds the way he responds to most things: with rules. Smoke outside. Never smoke around Katya. Never lie to her about it. As Katya grows up and her questions get bigger, Shane and Ilya do their best to answer them honestly.
A series of connected vignettes about addiction, shame, parenthood, and the difference between what Shane believes about himself and what the people who love him see.
Post-TLG and canon compliant except that Ilya is a non-smoker and Shane is addicted to nicotine. Work is fully mapped. Title is a play on Love in the Time of Cholera.

Summary
"𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤 𝙥𝙖𝙨𝙩, 𝙣𝙤 𝙛𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙣𝙤𝙬"
Both White and Black; complete nonsense from top to bottom. He wasted his time looking for substance in that garbage fire, but ultimately found nothing.
None of it matters, so screw both of them, toss 'em in the bin alongside the rest of the broken toys—both of it can go straight to HELL as far as he cares. The only thing that counts is getting his hands on a decent cuppa, a damn tea; that's about it, and if that means abandoning the pretentiousness of the world, then so be it. Because that was what He always did. He knew exactly what was going down. Sat back, watched the whole bloody circus unfold. Only stepped in when absolutely necessary to keep the wheels of existence turning, then let nature take its course. Allowed people to march right off the cliff, heads held high, blinded by their own hubris. The world is meaningless.
Let the dominoes fall, piece by shattered piece, letting humanity stew in its own self-destructive juices, and you know what? It worked perfectly.

Summary
You are a named reader who's given a present from your treasure hunter of a brother. A side project to keep your hyperfixations at bay, or a familiar face to remind you of a time long gone. Either way, you might need eachother way more than you think.
Character deconstruction featuring Help Wanted 2 Sun energy, a dysfunctional reader and a Moon who just wants pussy.... cat. Get ready for a romantic comedy with a canon accurate focus, fluff, mental health breakdowns, slow burn degeneracy, and realistic relationships. Have fun!
I DO NOT consent to Ai touching ANY of this work or the artworks inside. Thx! (^3^)/~♡

Summary
It was my dad who suggested that, given the context of this week’s draft and the announcement of my Hall of Fame induction, I should talk about the future—my legacy. My legacy, or the parts of my career that will last—that I want to last. So, starting simultaneously in the middle and at the beginning: when Scott Hunter came out, I sent him an email.
Or, prior to his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame, Shane Hollander publishes a career retrospective.

Summary
Had absolutely all the sacrifices really been necessary?
As Lin Jing walked the path ahead, perhaps the answers he didn't expect were exactly the ones he needed to find. Fake monk or not, he believed what he believed, and redemption was not a negotiable commodity. Sometimes all it took was a hand to reach out and change the course of everything.
That sense of unfairness had seeped into him.
...
Gui Mian sat up, resting his head in his hands and he tried to settle his breathing. Months of nights that were often filled with nightmares were taking its toll. Something needed to change. There was only one thing that he could think of that would calm him. He needed to see Lin Jing again. -

The Diary of Katherine Shepard by Hawkster94
Fandoms: Mass Effect Trilogy, Mass Effect - All Media Types
27 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
4 years and a half had passed since the galaxy emerged victorious against the Reapers. Recovery process is still ongoing, with the trauma of the war still lingering on, physical, mental, and emotional.
Inspired by the unfinished diaries that her former mentor, Admiral David Anderson, left in his former Citadel Apartment prior to his demise, now retired Commander Katherine Shepard decides to do her own diary detailing her early life, her career, the defining three years of her life, and what has she been up to since the end of the Reaper War.
Although it might be for the fun of it or just out of boredom, Shepard is writing her diary to help find her own closure.
NOTICE: This fic is based on the ending headcanon from AHEM (Audemus Happy Ending Mod), so no Catalyst, no Mass Relays damaged/destroyed, and no Geth/EDI being destroyed either. Additionally, it's based on CEM (Citadel Epilogue Mod), so expect the events of Citadel DLC to play out a few years after the Reaper War.
I should also mention that EGM and LE1/LE3 DP mods factor into this story.
