Summary
Fjord hears voices, sometimes.
(Sometimes, it’s more than voices. Sometimes it’s water stains at the bottom of his pants that only he notices, the sensation of soggy socks and the scent of sea-water following him around the city. Sometimes it’s dreaming about drowning and sometimes it’s things looking at him that shouldn’t have eyes -)
But. Yeah. He hears voices, sometimes.
Doesn’t everyone? College is stressful, he tells himself. There’s a lot of stress! He’s stressed. It’s fine.
Right?
(Modern AU, part of Any Storm Together verse but can be read standalone. Context of the AU in the author's notes)

Summary
Caleb, Beau, and Jester wandered off from the Mighty Nein's camp on Rumblecusp, and it's clear that the island's memory magic is to blame, unfortunately. Stuck with less-than-great options, Fjord, Yasha, Caduceus, and Veth call on Essek to give them a hand with recovering their friends.
Amnesia can be a bit of a funny thing. Funnier than some of them would've expected.

Summary
" “I’m not taking her,” Vax snapped, “I won’t be responsible for sending an innocent child back to an abusive home. I can’t.”
There was a pause, and Vax almost regretted his words. The Raven Queen did not take kindly to being disobeyed.
"She must live," The Raven Queen repeated. Vax opened his mouth to argue, but his mistress was not finished, "But perhaps you will find a kinder place for her to do so."
Oh. Vax blinked, looking back at the girl. She still looked scared, but mostly she just looked confused. A little awkward, perhaps. Unbidden, a faint smile formed on his lips. A kinder place to live? Vax knew exactly where to bring her. "
OR
Vax makes a split second decision to send a 12-year-old Beauregard somewhere safe instead of returning her to her parents. This decision could change everything.
