Summary
Yukari Mideen, the youngest daughter of the CEO of a successful Junon-based mining company, finds herself set to marry the cold, calculating son of the President. Her father have finally decided this is how she can be of use to the family. Dutiful despite her own uncertain heart, Yukari never expected to find something she truly wanted for herself beneath Midgar's smoggy skies. Someone worth defying the life she'd always known, the expectations that kept her caged. Because the Turk assigned to keep her safe did more than that - he made her feel seen. And maybe that was worth risking everything for.

Her silence is as deafening as a ghost, a lost ghost surrounded by dangerous akatsuki. Yulia is a twenty two year old literature major that wakes up in the midst of a fictional world, one she used to love.
This quiet girl keeps ruminating on what could have been, and what could be
Mint ice cream in winter can only replicate a certain feeling so much.
(Yulia's design and artworks can be seen on my Tumblr "gloomymelody" and Insta "parasiticlaventa".)

Summary
Akatsuki Studios is one broken radiator away from bankruptcy. Their clients are scarce, their budget is nonexistent, and their collective sanity is… debatable. So when ten-time Oscar winner Itachi Uchiha announces that this barely-functioning indie studio will produce his next “masterpiece,” one thing becomes clear: they’re going to need a pallet-sized shipment of coffee to avoid filing a Chapter 11.

Summary
“We need allies,” Sasori says suddenly, always one to get directly to the point. Deidara's face morphs from a pout to one of surprise. There has never been talks of allies before. The child has always just assumed it would be the two of them alone in this crusade. And Sasori had thought that too; until a few hours ago.
“Danna how would we even get allies? We're not exactly people others would trust easily.” The child doesn't even ask why, simply taking Sasori’s directive as enough on their own.
“No we are not. Hence why we will have to play the long game. We will have to manufacture trust. Manipulate whoever we need to, tell them whatever it is they need or want to hear. Make them blindly and fiercely dependent, devoted to us and only us.”
Aka: Itachi learns to be a bit selfish, Deidara learns to wield soft power and Sasori learns to be a bit more human.
Or: Sasori thinks he's manipulating Deidara. Deidara thinks he's manipulating Itachi. Itachi thinks he's above getting manipulated. And somehow the only ones they've managed to manipulate is themselves into becoming the good guys (and somewhat decent people). -

Summary
Deidara has very practical and normal reasons for going to the library.
Konan works there, his roommate Hidan is unbearable, and it’s the only place he can almost focus.
But then there’s the other reason he won’t admit: the boy with red hair who sits at the same table every afternoon.
