    Summary

    Tim Drake has secured peace for Gotham and all of the Juistria League - by marrying the High Chief of what has been their enemy nation for generations. Now, having left behind everything and everyone he has ever known, his new life in these strange, magical lands begins.

    Whatever happens next is uncertain. There are only two things he knows to be true: Having Jason at his side will be a comfort - and he can rely on his husband's kindness when everything else fails him.

    But will he be able to navigate these Lands, where common sense just doesn't seem to apply? And will he be able to gain the heart of his husband, or be stuck in a one-sided love for the rest of his life? Can he prove his worth as more than a trophy by Danny's side, not only to Danny but to his council as well? And what are these whispers about civil unrest about?

    As Tim is plagued by these questions, his husband Danny also has a few pressing questions he would like the answer to: How did he manage to marry someone as perfect as Tim? Also, does slaying a monster for your pretty husband count as a love declaration? The scales would make a pretty gift fit for the prince. Right?

    Summary

    Inspired by a tumblr post by @goldenaltar about a no astrophage/space diplomacy AU I literally could NOT stop thinking about since I first read it.

    The first collaboration between eridians and humans involves planning for a proper first contact, out in space so their respective interstellar trip times are cut (approximately) in half. Grace was conscripted for ‘Project Neighborhood’ as one of many biologists on the team. He sneaks out to the tunnel connecting their ships after hours to try and catch a glimpse of a Real Life Alien - and there's an eridian on the other side who has the exact same idea.

    When their sneaking around catches up to them, they're forced to consider the implications of all this sneaking around, and maybe lean into them a little to keep from being thrown out the nearest airlock - or starting an intergalactic war.

    Summary

    Jinchul is 90% sure his new apartment is haunted. Maybe his new housemate too.

    He keeps hallucinating shadows of monsters creeping about the flat, and Sung Jinwoo himself is the picture-perfect housemate that he could have only wished for — if he ignores how the man doesn’t seem to sleep and sometimes looks as though he’s forgotten how to act human — and there’s this persistent, nagging voice in his head that keeps screaming at him that he’s forgotten something essential.

    But the rent here is affordable and Jinchul has bigger problems to worry about as Chief Detective of the Seoul Police Department. He’s pretty sure he could handle the hypothetical eldritch monster lurking in his flat anyways, if worst comes to worst… right?

    Honestly, this was not what he was expecting from walking into that dungeon. he'd hoped that at least one of his raids could be normal for once but apparently not.

    Summary

    After losing everything, Sung Jin-Woo decides to turn back the clock one more time, seeking purpose in a life that’s become hollow. This time, he’s drawn to Woo Jin-Chul, a man with his own scars and a deep need to protect the world from hunters’ crimes. What begins as a simple deal between them slowly turns into something deeper. But with Jin-Woo struggling to reclaim his humanity, and Jin-Chul haunted by his past, will they only end up hurting each other more, or can they find hope in each other?

    Also featuring: humor, plot twists, mysteries, tentacles, lore drops, exotic travel locales, trysts in the KHA bathroom, an unreasonable amount of excitement about government departments, Jin-Woo making out with himself, etc.
