Summary
"I think I'm in love with you."
Beta doesn't look over to him—not yet. Just keeps staring out at the flickering of the lights before them, embers dancing in the sky.
~
Beta hadn't really expected Aloy to be much help in the romance department, but her sister had given at least one good piece of advice.
If this is something that she really wants—then she's going to have to make the first move.

Summary
He can't even really say what was on his mind the first time he saw her.
A shock of red amidst blue and brown and green—a fire weaving through the world that could never really hold her in the first place.
Erend's seen a lot of Aloy since that first night in the midst of Mother's Heart, and he doesn't think he'll ever get sick of the sight of her.
-
Or, a series of moments in which Erend and Aloy are unsubtle idiots falling in love, and are bad at admitting how they feel.

Gnawing on the bars of my cage for this fic. Gonna be rereading it repeatedly. I need to go stare at a wall. I need to rewatch the Daredevil episodes with Claire in them. I'm heartbroken because I know this isnt how the rest of the show is gonna go. I need to reread this fic immediately

Summary
Superhero AU
No one knows where meta-humans come from, or how long they've been hiding in society. But almost three years after the Red Raids, dark forces appear, threatening to disturb the fragile peace between them and humans.
Aloy, a runaway meta-human from the Nora tribe, is desperate to keep her abilities a secret. But when her life becomes entwined with a group of capers—masked vigilantes—she suddenly finds herself at the center of a sinister plot and a romance she's not sure she's ready for. But to save the whole of mankind, she must learn to stop running and confront the truth of her past.
Plagued with debilitating headaches since she was a child, Beta ventures out of the Sacred Lands looking for answers after surviving a devastating attack on her tribe. The trail leads her to Meridian, and to the twin sister that had abandoned her. When she discovers that they share more than just their red hair, she must learn to forgive and to trust in herself—or risk placing her life in the hands of the enemy determined to destroy all human life.

Summary
AU where post-banishment Ahsoka gets zapped back to TPM, strapped with a fundamental distrust of the Jedi, an apocalyptic vision of the future, and a mandate to help Anakin Skywalker.
Yet, despite her belief that she rewrites the future, every move Tano makes was foretold with the first flickers of light in this universe. As she slides piece after piece across the cosmic board, it becomes increasingly obvious she works to a preordained script of someone else's design. But whose and why?

Summary
Sirens are ravenous creatures that are cursed with the hunger left behind by the Old Ones. They wander across the seas, drawing those on the coast lands to their deaths by using their magicks to appear in desirable forms.
Aloy doesn't learn of them until she goes West. At first she doesn't believe the tales.
Then she does.
