Summary
In a small seaside town called Tadfield, one of the last places on Earth where humans and magic coexist, an exiled selkie and a human who ran away from her life accidentally get themselves married in the oldest, most binding sense.
The two are forced to stay together until they can find a way to undo it and free the other from their accidental marriage.
It sure would be complicated if they started to fall for each other in the process…

Summary
"Kariya Masaki was ALONE... It began and ended with that one simple word... Nothing would change. This was his constant. This was his safety."
Between the wind and the water there sits a lonely cottage. Inside that lonely cottage there lives a lonely boy. As lonely as he is, to him there's nothing wrong with isolation... That is, until two very strange people wash ashore in the nearby cove. Hopefully the local Governor's ward won't find out that they're pirates or else they'll be executed. And hopefully these two pirates can break down the walls surrounding this lonely child's heart.
Aka: Kariya is a sad kid who doesn't realise he needs some good ol' found family to cheer him up and Shindou needs to get over his (totally) dead best friend.

Summary
You were doing fine as a diver, despite the nosy neighbor/best friend and dog that was certainly going to be the end of you. All was well, in a weird way
Then the storm came.And the tides rose.
And you met a monster
Two of them actually, and they were nothing like you’ve been told.You have no idea what to do, no idea how to help, and clearly no idea now broken they are.
But you can't keep them safe forever.Your past is catching up to you faster than you think.

Summary
Astrid has the power to make others see and hear the person they love most, a dangerous and uncontrollable magic that causes harm to everyone around her. She knew one day she'd leave her adopted family she just never thought she'd be leaving with the Avengers or that they could be the ones to help her.
Over time it becomes obvious that very few Avengers trust her and no one can help her with her magic, not even Wanda. So how come Thor knows exactly what to do? Can he really help her? And why won't he stop staring at her?
She should probably let him know she's not interested, because there’s a certain super soldier she has her sight set on, she's just not sure he feels the same way.

Summary
“Someone,” Strange says, “is selling cryptid components.” He pauses, and Sam could swear he’s looking at Bucky. “And making a killing doing it. Literally.”
“Cryptid components?” Natasha asks, leaning forward. “What are those in the context of this mission?”
Strange shifts his eyes from Bucky to Natasha. “Nascent fishkin scales—” he starts.
“Fishstick what, now?” Stark interrupts.
“You would know them as merfolk,” Strange continues, “vampire teeth, chupacabras claws, cockatrice spurs, phoenix feathers, sasquatch fur.” He makes a dismissive motion with one hand. “The list is long and the specifics are immaterial.”
(Or: Bucky and Sam go undercover as a married couple on a mission to break up a poaching ring that’s attacking cryptids. It’s a great opportunity to learn about the magical community and explore their human-selkie relationship… but can they stand (and protect) their neighbors?)

Summary
Foss isn't used to having to schedule things, normally he times things by tides not clocks. He also isn't used to actually forming attachments to people. So when he has to *wait* to see Rune, he doesn't quite understand why it feels like it's been a long time when it's only been a few days.
Rune is very pleased with this state of affairs. And will absolutely not entertain the idea of introspection as to why she missed him too.

Summary
Claude attracts a very specific kind of crowd.
Claude wouldn't call himself an animal lover. He likes animals, sure. Only a monster could look at a kitten or puppy and not feel something. He's human, just like everyone else. Animals, on the other hand, seem to unanimously love him. They sense his carefully hidden soft heart, he's sure of it. It's the only explanation. They capitalize on his weakness and extort him for all he's worth. He folds like a house of cards every time a kitten so much as looks at him. Behind closed doors, he doesn't mind too much. Maybe he even goes so far as to enjoy the companionship. But he's aware no one will take him seriously if his little weakness comes to light. It's his greatest (mundane) secret.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have enough blackmail material to silence the entirety of the Golden Deer when they find out.
Aka Disney Princess!Claude
