Summary
So far, all forms of therapy had been unsuccessful. The Orb of Healing Light had tried to coax Bill into opening up about his childhood, his parents and the ‘2nd-Dimension Incident’, but he had refused to speak about anything deeper than his favourite food. Especially in group therapy, where Cipher either remained silent or continuously disrupted the other patients in the session. He was truly the most challenging patient they had the pleasure of dealing with so far.
Yet, a singular name continued to be mentioned within therapy sessions or in passing conversation. Often Bill cursed his name, but he was undeniably attached to this mortal, appearing to reminisce upon past chess games or torture. One thing was for certain, however. The triangle harboured an attachment to Stanford Pines.
This was something that The Orb felt that they could work with.
Or: A rather long Bill Cipher redemption fic that begins with him inside the Theraprism and ends up with him living with the Pines family.

Summary
When the White King discovers that the Red Queendom intends to assassinate his only daughter, he trusts Jest to act as the princess' guard. The White Queen does not want her daughter to feel frightened, so she suggests Jest court the princess and attribute his proximity to her as affection rather than a means of protection (she's giddy to see them get along!). When Jest hesitates to agree to this arrangement, the White Queen makes this promise: if he marries Princess Lily, he can leave his Rook duties behind him.
But what if the princess knew how to protect herself? Jest's mind races: with a new Queen, they could end the war. With the war over, he could live a life of ease... the life he’s always wanted. And without having to marry a stranger.
Jest's life may have ended in the land of Hearts, but this is his life as a Rook (and jester?) in Chess.!!! The story is finished! New chapters drop Tuesday and Friday! !!!

Summary
Spencer and Aaron are brothers, but for a change, William Reid is actually a decent person. Aaron has just joined the BAU and his brother is super proud of him! Spencer is still a genius, but also a literal menace because he is actually loved.
The working title for this was: 'Hotch and Spencer are brothers and William isn't evil' so I feel like while the title I went for wasn't great, it absolutely could have been worse! -

Summary
Sukuna is the typical prodigy who has never lost at anything: debates, chess, strategy. Used to being the center of attention, he stumbles upon Megumi, a guy just as brilliant but silent, reserved, and completely immune to his presence. That indifference pricks his pride. So he decides to play a little game: provoke him, rattle him, prove he can figure him out. But Megumi never reacts the way he should. Every move Sukuna makes seems already calculated by him. And what started as a whim to feed his ego turns into a match where checkmate could come from either one.

Summary
When things really start is on the Isle of Man for the FIDE Grand Swiss. It’s somewhat forgettable in the grand scheme of things, with no remarkable results for either of them. They’re deep in the tournament, and they’ve just drawn their game. They do a joint interview for the live broadcast, and Hans is fucked.
Back at the hotel afterwards, they slink away into the same room. There’s nothing weird about it. They’re not the first chess players to hang out. That does not, however, explain how Hans ends up under Alireza with hands down each other’s pants.
And it’s only when he’s bid Alireza goodnight and he’s alone again, that what happened actually registers. He stares at the ceiling blankly. His actions are not a reflection of himself. Right?
or, how Hans proceeds after an encounter with Alireza which never aligned with any of his plans

Summary
Nessuno bussa mai alla porta di Alastor durante le sue “ore di trasmissione”. Lucifer lo fa comunque.
Da una partita a scacchi rubata a una minaccia di territorio nel Distretto Est, una storia su due maschere che, lentamente, imparano a scendere — senza che nessuno dei due lo ammetta mai ad alta voce.
