Summary
They built their lives without love.
Now they have to figure out what to do with it.
Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno meet at a time when neither of them is looking for anything more—both settled into careers, routines, and lives that make sense.
Love was never part of the plan. But some things aren’t planned.
What begins as something simple slowly becomes something deeper—something real, something steady, something worth risking everything they’ve carefully built.
Because this time… it’s not just about falling.
It’s about choosing to stay.

Summary
Now, Chan is in his messages again, and Felix’s heart swoops fast in his chest, feeling something like his internal organs doing a summersault. He reads over the text on his screen.
Chan: I’m not trying to start anything.
Chan: but your package is at my place
This would be fine. This would be totally fine and cool if the only things Felix had ordered throughout the entire three weeks of their breakup weren’t a gross amount of sex toys and McDonalds. And he’s very fucking sure that the breakup didnt hit Chan hard enough for him to pick up door dashing.
So, there was only one more option to go by.
OR. Felix accidentally sends his package full of sex toys to Chan—his ex’s—apartment. Its been the pettiest, shittiest three weeks of his life and the last thing he wants is Chan at his door holding a box full of dildos to him, but the world seemed to be against him anyway.
Their inevitable interactions force Felix to reckon with thoughts that leave his poor little pride dangling above a shark full of hungry sharks, all while the friend group subtly begins to fall apart.

Summary
Makoto Ito, a 2nd year starting at Karasuno high after moving to Miyagi from Hyogo. Leaving a life he'd grown attached to and now having to reopen an old one.
Having been childhood friends with Kageyama, Makoto had always looked back at their time fondly. Easy days playing volleyball and hanging out at each others places. Why was it so different now after he moved back? Couldn't it just be like how it used to be or was it never as peaceful as Makoto remembered it to being?
An underlying tension that perhaps has always been there, nagging at the both of them. One denying it to every length while the other one who doesn't see it for what it is.

Summary
In Gotham, even miracles come with side effects.
Damian Wayne does not need friends. He does not do charity work.
But a weeklong suspension from school sees Alfred dragging him to volunteer at Dr. Thompkins’ second clinic in the Narrows, where he meets Dr. Aris Hale: the kind of doctor who stitches wounds without asking questions and keeps too many secrets behind soft brown eyes.
What starts as a curiosity becomes a mentor, a friend, and now an intriguing case the entire family can no longer ignore.
In a city built on rot and secrets, even healing can spread like infection.
((Act One completed. Act Two ongoing.))

Summary
Darrow is living an ordinary life as an ordinary college student, but he has a secret. He's also the Reaper, the most notorious player in IronGold, leading a rebellion against the Society and making a whole lot of rich people very nervous.
His identity is hidden from the world because all he wants is to keep his family safe from those who wish to ruin him.
But things would be much simpler if Darrow didn't have a growing fixation on Cassius au Bellona, his former enemy who's become his best friend, favorite gaming partner, and possibly something more. Apparently commanding fleets and overthrowing an empire is easier than figuring out your feelings for your ridiculously handsome best friend. -

Summary
Buh, just testing tagging for each of my books
This is Only Human"Only Human is about Matilda Lindström, a Swedish-English girl who moved from Sweden to England in secondary school. Here, she meets Aaron Connor, a dorky English boy who witnesses first-hand the fuckups in the other's life.,,
This book is the least connected to Detroit: Become Human, but it is very important for the rest of the series (which I promise becomes more relevant to the game :sob:) (although the "main" fanfic set in the events of the game isn't even really the main shit tbh)

Summary
Dahyun's will to live had already exited the building, so what was one more thing to lose. Her mind was next and with the way everything was going at the moment she really had no idea how long she would be able to do this.
Even if Dahyun didn't really believe in a future for herself anymore, she also didn't account for all the changes that got kickstarted and a certain someone with a skateboard in their hand entering her life.
What followed next was an exploration of trauma, identity, love and rebuilding of trust that neither Dahyun or Kaede would have ever expected to happen.
It would definitely be worth it though… if she bothers to stick around that is.

Summary
A single mistake can have devastating consequences. But every action has an equal and opposite reaction...
Three days before Sunny is due to leave Faraway, Aubrey wakes up in a world where she has everything she’s ever wanted: Mari's alive, her former friend group is intact—hell! She's even dating her old crush!
By all accounts it should be a dream come true... but it feels like a nightmare.
Can Aubrey accept this new reality? Will this world even accept her? And what happened to the girl whose life she just hijacked?
TLDR: Aubrey gets isekai’d into an everyone-lives AU, swapping places with her counterpart. Angst and fluff ensues (with just a little bit of crack, as a treat).
ACT 1- Rude Awakenings: 1 - 12.
ACT 2- Oh, Mari: 13 - ?
