This Engagement Will Fail Anyway (And That’s Fine… Probably) by ColetteIsAPotato

Summary
Phainon has always believed in destiny.
When his childhood fiancé showed him a fleeting warmth before turning distant again, he swore to become worthy of standing at Anaxa’s side. If Anaxa was cold, he would be patient. If Anaxa was indifferent, he would love enough for both of them. So Phainon trains—at the Knight Academy, in tournaments, on expeditions, even on the battlefield—all to protect the fragile future he believes is theirs.
Unfortunately, Anaxagoras does not believe in destiny.
Executed in his first life and hunted down in his second, Anaxagoras awakens a third time in the same nest of vipers meant to destroy him. This time, he chooses strategy. He needs power—someone influential enough to shield him while he quietly dismantles his enemies.
When his eyes land on the heir of House Aedes Elysiae, bright and sincere, he decides:
Phainon will do.
To Anaxagoras, their engagement is a contract. Protection now, divorce later. Simple.
There is only one flaw in his flawless plan.
Phainon has fallen hopelessly in love with him.
While one fights for romance, the other fights to survive.
And love was never part of the strategy.

In Which the Elf Dies Horribly: A Winter Tradition, As Narrated by Silver Vanrouge by ColetteIsAPotato

Summary
“Father?” Silver called out, gently pushing himself up on his elbows. It seems like he had fallen asleep on the couch and a blanket had been lovingly draped over his small figure to keep him nice and warm from the creeping winter chill. Though, in hindsight, it was a little strange that his father hadn't just carried him to his room like usual, although this wasn't the forefront of what Silver was truly curious about.
“Why are you—” His father suddenly turned with an expectant grin. “Ah! You’re awake. Excellent timing.”
He stepped aside.
There was a small figure sitting on the shelf.
It wore red. Its smile was stitched, not painted, and its eyes caught the morning light in a way that made them seem almost alive. It sat perfectly upright, hands folded on its knees, as if it had been waiting.
Silver stared.
After a moment had passed he asked quietly. “What is that?”
His father clasped his hands together, delighted. “That, my dear boy, is an elf.”
Alternatively, the “The Elf on the Shelf” Tradition if Christmas was a thing in Twisted Wonderland. Featuring the Diasomnia Cast.

Summary
“You came back,” Shen Qingqiu said.
“Yes.”
“Why?”
A creature lunged from behind a broken column. Liu Qingge turned and killed it in a single, brutal strike, then faced Shen Qingqiu again as though nothing had interrupted them.
“Because I would never leave you,” he replied sincerely.
Something broke in Shen Qingqiu’s expression.
“They assumed I was dead,” Shen Qingqiu added quietly. “I heard them shouting it.”
“Well, you certainly proved them wrong.”
Shen Qingqiu laughed, sharp and disbelieving, then coughed, blood at the corner of his mouth. “You really shouldn’t have come back here.”
“I know, but I wanted to.”
What begins as political convenience becomes survival, scandal, and a love neither of them planned for.

look at the stars (look how they shine for you) by ColetteIsAPotato
Fandoms: 崩坏：星穹铁道 | Honkai: Star Rail (Video Game)
22 Oct 2025

Summary
The stars don’t go out all at once. They dim slowly, like they’re trying not to be noticed.
The first one slips behind the black, then another. You don’t feel the dark until it’s already everywhere.
He always said it was just the sky being shy. Said it like it was funny, like his voice wasn’t cracking when he said it.
But he kept watching anyway. Every night.
Wrapped in too many blankets. A cup cooling in his hands. The telescope sat nearby, untouched.
“It’s just the weather,” he murmured once, when the coughing didn’t stop.
Or maybe it was, “The air’s thinner up here.”
Something soft. Something harmless.
He always had a reason. Always had a smile.
That kind of tired, aching smile you give someone you love when you don’t want them to ask what’s really wrong.
So no one did.
Not then.
Not until the stars were mostly gone.

is my love your drug? by ColetteIsAPotato

Summary
Phainon believes they're destined to be together, his friends were just too blind to see that Professor Anaxa clearly reciprocated his feelings.
Silence fell. A bird chirped. Somewhere in the distance, a lawnmower droned—a metaphor, possibly, for Mydei’s will to live.
“Look,” Castorice said at last—voice kind, but laced with the bone-deep weariness of someone who’d been here far too many times—“I’m not trying to crush your quest for true love or whatever, but please. Either confess or let it go. You can’t keep spiraling over fractions of seconds.”
Phainon’s grin widened, radiant and unbothered. “But the fractions are getting longer. That means something.”
“So would medication,” Mydei muttered, barely audible over the sound of his own mental collapse.
But Phainon simply leaned back onto the grass, utterly unbothered, clutching his notebook to his chest like sacred scripture. He stared up at the sky with the sigh of a man caught in a tragic ballad, already rehearsing his next completely unnecessary excuse to show up during office hours.
“It’s fine,” he thought. “He’ll realize it soon. Love like this doesn’t go unnoticed forever.”

Summary
Life after the Snowfield Holy Grail War has somehow blessed Tiné in ways she never could've expected.
But how long will these blessings last? Great heroes like Gilgamesh and Enkidu will eventually move on and leave, right? Someone like her is far from important in their lives. Yet, why do they stick around when they have the freedom to do whatever they wish?

Summary
When Hua Cheng loses all his memories of Xie Lian, afflicted by a tricky curse, there’s only one way to get them back: Xie Lian has to get Hua Cheng to kiss him.
It shouldn’t be too difficult, right?
Xie Lian has a plan.
“Greetings, Chengzhu,” Xie Lian said. “Apologies for the intrusion. Actually, I’ve been gifted to you by the heavens as a…”
His voice caught.
“I mean, to—”
Xie Lian’s cheeks suddenly felt hot, and his palms grew damp under the rope binding his arms together. Beneath Hua Cheng’s piercing stare from above, he lost his cool.
“As your,” he stammered. “Um, as—well—if you want, I’ve been sent to you as—I’m here to be your—”- Language:
