Summary
***Remastered Version of The Reluctant Alchemist's Guide to Thedas, Part 1"***
A modern-day historian tries to survive Thedas by wit, chance, and the skin of her teeth at the questionable edges of the Inquisition.
Margo Duvalle likes her quiet academic life just fine. Her research on the history of botany is going well - until she finds an odd manuscript in the local special collections library. What starts as a promising source for a new article leads to a series of unfortunate events that hurl Margo into an unfamiliar world - and into a stranger's body. But a PhD in history doesn't prepare you for surviving in a world on the edge of collapse, especially when the organization that seeks to fix things is itself a sordid mess. As she tries to unravel the mysteries lurking behind young Evelyn Trevelyan's apparent incompetence, Margo is led into a tangled web that weaves multiple worlds together — and what waits in the shadows might be much bigger than whatever strife plagues Thedas.

Summary
There are over 560 federally recognized American Indian and Alaskan Native tribes in the U.S. and yet comprehensive data on violence against the women under tribal jurisdiction does not exist because no federal, Indian agency nor organization systematically collects this information. These women are relegated to the shadows.
Names lost. Faces forgotten. Hope abandoned.
Chief Mathias Stillwater has not forgotten them. He has not abandoned them. He will not give up on them without a fight, no matter the cost.
Sheriff Cady Longmire has learned the truth. She has seen the faces of the forgotten. She has heard their names and watched justice pass them by, leaving them to their fates.
No more.

Summary
Park Jimin and Jung Hoseok have been developing feelings for each other since they were trainees. Hobi is very much aware of this. Jimin, on the other hand, is in denial.
It is 2014 and Jimin is getting increasingly on edge as Hobi's feelings are increasingly becoming more transparent. Jimin thinks he has it under control. After all - Jimin doesn't like Hobi back. Jimin is straight. Jimin is Christian. He can't like him back.
But then things take a sudden turn when there is a near-kiss, a confession, and a lie that won't stop producing more. Now with a rift between Jimin and the people he is closest to, Jimin is thrust into having to find the truth within himself - and accepting what that is. -

Summary
“Let me make one thing clear,” he seethes, dangerously quiet, and the air crackles with the first strikes of lightning, Syaoran’s own shoulders drawn uncomfortably still in the unwanted space between them, goldish eyes flicking quick from one to the other. “I’m not going to hear one more word out of you until you are in a chair, and that is off.”
Kurogane’s eyes barely touch his own as his nostrils flare with a silent breath, jaw clenched shut.
“Got that?” rumbles Fai.

Summary
With quirks ranging from all-powerful to lackluster, it's only natural that some lucky few get to bask in the limelight while others can only tilt their heads up to watch. But some people aren't born with strength, or even with mediocrity. Some are born with nothing - doomed to lie forgotten on the edges of society, like barely crackling white noise in a world of music.
Midoriya Izuku refuses to let that happen to him. Quirkless or not, it doesn't matter to him - not anymore. He wants to be a hero - so, he will be.

Summary
Two women with no connection to each other. A chance meeting and a quick goodbye. Neither of them expected everything to change.
Abigail Henderson was enduring a blind date turned cautionary Tinder tale. Solona Amell was just doing her job bounty hunting for a local bail bonds office. When Abby's date and Solona's target turn out to be one and the same, neither of them expects how quickly their lives will turn upside down.
When an altercation with local law enforcement is caught on video and begins to circulate the Internet, they both find themselves thrown headfirst into the lingering mage-templar conflict still gripping the Free Marches twenty years after the violent destruction of the Kirkwall Chantry. Their personal lives aren't left unscathed either, as both women find themselves grappling with strange new acquaintances and relatively unwanted attractions to two former Templars now working as detectives with the Kirkwall City Police Department.
Tensions rise as past transgressions begin to surface, but everyone has secrets to hide.

Summary
General Hux tries to search for “kyber” on the holonet but it is mistyped as “kylux”. He is scarred for life and determined to destroy the strange planet of Tumblr that has produced such atrocities. He finds an unlikely ally in Rey, who isn’t too happy to find out about Reylo either. (She only just moved in with Rose.) Rose is reluctant to promote censorship despite her concerns for her girlfriend, but when Hux introduces her to “Roux/GingerRose” she is out for blood.
But others concerned about the fate of their own blogs and entertainment convince them to leave the site mostly intact but ban “adult content”. The journey to another galaxy far away to announce their demands and enforce them is a struggle, but after all Hux has planet-destroying weaponry and Rey has a lightsaber and Force-choking powers. Rose has attitude and a taser. The odd, backward planet of “Earth” shall bow to the combined might of the First Order and the Resistance.
Gratuitous social and political commentary, inspired by the Great Tumblr Purge of 2018.
Because “female-presenting nipples” sounds exactly like something Hux would say with a sneer. -
