    Summary

    The leper king of Jerusalem cannot be looked at directly. This turns out to be not dissimilar, for one knight from Champagne, to looking at the sun.

    Such a well realised concept, with wonderful prose. More than any other fic this Baldwin feels like BALDWIN. Great stuff

    Summary

    Neira Stormchaser was once a slave on Tatooine. Having fled servitude to the Hutts, she had made a space for herself on Imperial Centre until she is handed a file regarding a particular person's insane accounts and expenses (who in the Galaxy crashes this many starships??).

    She would like the record to state, she is not paid enough to chase Dark Lords around their own Cruiser, whether they be avoiding her, bowing to a Depur or murdering incompetent officers and/or grumpy old men from the Desert. She is definitely not paid enough to deal with Kitster eating popcorn in the background or Kix's constant babying of said Dark Lord.

    Firmus Piett would just like a nap.

    Neira is an extremely charismatic lead, and the dedication to exploring and celebrating Tatooine slave culture in this fic is a delight. It’s also very fun to read fics about Darth Vader where Anakin Skywalker is 100% still himself despite the tortures. A wonderful read!

    Summary

    No, he needs this. This is his penance for not saving her, for her needing to save him at such a great cost. She will take him like this, drain him of sin and they’ll begin anew tomorrow.
    “I am not in pain,” he tells her.

    Oh my dear friend Raoul who likes to get tied up and adores his wife. The backstory (and previous fic!) is dark but this one is undeniably soupy and romantic.

    Summary

    If the Ministry's response to the world's most infamous Dark Wizard being raised from the dead is complete denial, it should be no surprise that they don't even notice when the second most infamous Dark Wizard goes missing.

    When Gellert Grindelwald escapes prison after getting a vision of Albus Dumbledore's death, he learns that Hogwarts is looking for yet another Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor. It seems like the perfect excuse to get close to the Headmaster so that he can protect Albus. But with Albus more suspicious than ever and the Ministry determined to get its talons into Hogwarts, how long can he hide his identity?

    Albus is thankful to have found a professor who isn't some Ministry puppet. Harry just wants someone to assure him that his dreams don't mean he's losing his mind.

    Utterly fantastic grindeldore dynamic that feels really old school. Albus deserves special praise: he’s calculating, but my hod if this fic doesn’t also understand his whimsy!

    Summary

    Godwyn Gold is totally, completely, absolutely, positively, and definitely dead, for sure and for real. His mother, Marika, founder and CEO of notorious national monopoly Gold & Order, has been missing since a week after his funeral. Her five—er, seven—remaining children and stepchildren have all received sizable shares of ownership in her company, as has Dr. Rennala Caria of Raya Lucaria Enterprises, whose ex-husband Radagon, the COO of G & O, left her his own share before going missing himself.

    Ranni, current acting CEO of a newly split-off R.L.E., is used to lying, scheming, blackmailing, and gaslighting, but the past year and a half has been a lot even for her. At least she has her brother Rykard to lean on, even if he’s distressingly convinced that the worst of everything is behind them.

    On a completely unrelated note, the headlining act for this week’s show at the Moonlight Altar is apparently supposed to be some foreign synth rock collab called Survivors of the Abyss.

    (I promise you don't have to read the really long Godwyn/Fortissax fic to understand this one!)

    A stunning deconstruction of canon, a really fun modern approach to Elden Ring and maintaining its magic, and most importantly a messy, messy, exploration of grief and loss. A really engaging story on every level. Not grimdark; FOR RYKARD ENJOYERS
