Summary
Lana Shepard hit the button to eject the safety pod she had just put Joker in right before a blast knocked her backward. She bounced off the corner behind her, hearing something crack, grasping at anything and everything that floated past her now that gravity was no longer in play. Nothing stuck. Everything was bits and pieces, falling apart in her hands, slipping through her fingers. She drifted farther and farther away from the wreckage of her beloved Normandy with no idea of what had become of her crew, her teammates, her friends.
It wasn’t supposed to end this way.

Summary
March has a problem.
It's not the mining - he's perfectly capable of navigating the caves beneath Mistria, thank you very much. It's not the heat, despite what he keeps insisting about "geothermal activity." And it's certainly not the way the new farmer looks in a tank top, or the way she matches him barb for barb, or the way her laugh makes his chest do something deeply inconvenient.
He's had three months to build his walls. She dismantles them in an afternoon.
OR
In which March loses a battle with his own self-control, Olric has spectacularly bad timing, and a workbench is used for purposes entirely unrelated to smithing.

Hilarious, sweet, hot. Fantastic dialogue, internal and otherwise.

Summary
“Hyunjin is dead,” Jeongin breathed. He looked up to see the others stare back at him with wide eyes, Hyunjin towering over them at the back, the light from the window in the hallway lighting up his figure. “They told me he was dead.”
Hyunjin's dark eyes found Jeongin’s tearful ones.
“Not dead,” Hyunjin said with a poisonous smile. “Just gay.”
Or: Jeongin has spent years mourning the loss of his first love, a love he was told by his church was sinful and wrong, but one he just couldn't stop from blooming in his chest. Now, years later, Jeongin meets Hyunjin again, very alive and also very different from how he used to be back in their shared church.

Summary
A collection of one shots where each chapter is you in a relationship with a different SKZ member. Stand-alone chapters, lots of fluff, banter, and everyday chaos.
No plot, just fluff
I think the only common theme is you have pink hair.Obviously all fiction and does not reflect the real people in real life.

Summary
Evelyn Trevelyan runs a four-hour war table session without cracking. She infiltrates the Iron Bull's quarters, steals his shirt, and falls asleep in his bed like a woman with no survival instincts whatsoever. Bull has notes:
"You don't decide when I touch you tonight. You don't decide where. You don't decide how hard. You just lie there in my shirt and take what I give you."
