Summary
'Three plus one' doesn’t always equal Four.
Three Mantle natives, and an Atlesian elite. Three independent Huntresses-in-training, and one future Military Specialist. Three romantic partners, and the odd-one-out. Three girls, and a guy. From the outside, that’s just how it looks – an insurmountable divide – but not everyone’s happy to leave the equation unsolved. When years of mounting pressure finally come to a head one dark, dreary night at Atlas Academy, an unexpected discovery kickstarts a team’s efforts to welcome their fourth member into the fold… From acceptance, to support, to maybe, just maybe, falling a little bit in love.
(Very Happy Huntresses-in-progress, Academy-Era.)

Summary
She’d first spied it leering at her from the rack of lower-than-low-brow tabloids in a convenience store down in Little Mistral. What was intended as a quick jaunt into Vale Proper for a lunch break before sequestering herself in her home office has become a concentrated stressor. One that’s left her hunched on the living room couch, having a grueling staring contest with a magazine cover, like she can scour the thing from existence with rough enough of a glare.
["HAS THE BIG CAT BEEN DECLAWED? Strange alt-fashion choice, or a collar for kitty? Our sources catch a glimpse of the White Fang’s own High Leader Blake Belladonna looking a little bit more like a Housecat than a Wildcat for her human fiancee in this candid snapshot, taken outside one of Vale’s most exclusive nightclubs."]
Godsdammit.

Summary
Blake Belladonna’s long-conditioned trauma response is to run. But what if, in one particular pivotal instance, it wasn’t? What if, on that terrible night that changed Team RWBY's world forever, her instincts pushed her to choose a long, desperate fight, instead of taking flight?
On a chilly evening in the early spring following the Fall of Beacon, the Rose-Xiao Long household receives an unexpected visitor - a freezing feline faunus soaked to the bone, battered and bruised from a climactic battle, and beyond all else, dead-set on returning straight to her partner's side.
"H-he can't hurt us anymore."

Summary
"I think of all I’ve - All we’ve built together, you and I, the Black Eagles, all who’ve sacrificed for these lofty aspirations… The stability of the Empire, of the United Fódlan, our image of strength under my leadership – it can’t be right of me to risk that for my own selfish whims, and yet I find myself… I find myself wanting it, nonetheless. To be free to cease hiding, to finally be wed, to wear your collar without fear.”
All her life, she's suppressed her true nature from all but a trusted few. The mantle of her position and gravity of her goals have demanded it, while the remnants of past trauma - physical and otherwise - made a different path unthinkable. Yet now, in the wake of a war, in the light of an age of peace, could Edelgard von Hresvelg be able to finally, fully embrace her dynamic as a submissive? ...She will if her beloved Byleth's got anything to say about it, at least.
(tl;dr -- A sapphic Edeleth spinoff of the 3H D/s-verse AU)

Summary
"It wasn't supposed to go down like this. Not yet. She had no idea when it would have, or even if she ever safely could have. But then someone discovered something they weren't supposed to, shared something they never had the right to, and at the most catastrophic time they could have chosen to. And didn’t *that* just spark off the whole damn dust mine.
Tonight, a perfect storm is set to ravage the Marigold Mansion, and one Marigold in particular does NOT want to be here when it does."
(tl;dr May's last night in Atlas.)

Summary
There have been many lies in Asami Sato's life. Some she lived, and others fed to her. But, since you can't stop progress anymore than you can stop the world from spinning, unraveling the truth, about herself and everything around her, always takes a back seat to the current crisis. Of course, the strongest and most debilitating lie of all is the one she forces upon herself.
Since, to focus on herself would be unforgivable. Selfish. Arrogant. If so many are suffering, how can she allow herself to grieve? To put her own well-being first? To be happy? She can't. Not yet. But maybe, once all of this is over...
Maybe.
And yet, no matter how hard she fights, or how clever she is, she can never turn that "maybe" into "now".
This is the story of how Asami Sato went beyond the impossible, time and time again.
From her lowest point to her greatest triumph. Drowning in denial and grief to shattering the laws of reality to find happiness.
How she turned "maybe" into "forever".
Loosely inspired by the American folk tale of "John Henry the Steel Driving Man"

Summary
After Horde Prime is defeated, there's still much left to be resolved. What to do with all his abandoned clones? What punishment does Hordak deserve for his role in Etheria's suffering? How to restore the Fright Zone to Scorpia's family and what to do with all the indoctrinated soldiers still living there? What to do about the possibility of more magic-based worlds that were converted to weapons by the First Ones - or the possibility that Horde Prime was smart enough to make a backup of his consciousness? And the most important question of all - will Catra and Adora ever be allowed some alone time to explore their newly admitted love for one another?
COMPLETE as of 2020-09-10: Written as a sort of "Season Six", this story covers the post-war fallout, a long space adventure to find and destroy Prime's backup consciousness, a slow-burn exploration of what a Hordak redemption arc might look like, and lots and lots of Catra/Adora character study, hurt/comfort, fluff, and occasionally smut. There are some violent action scenes, but no character death.

Summary
They belonged to each other, a tapestry woven from two different fabrics. It was instinctual, the connection they had.
Catra goes into her first heat after the end of the war, her body finally feeling safe.
Adora knows her better than she knows herself, sometimes.

Summary
Or, Catra fucks around and finds out.The best part about this is that, as much fun as Adora must be having right now, Catra knows her wife needs more than this to come, needs firmer pressure, the rough texture of her tongue or the press of fingers inside her. The soft, feathery touches of Catra's (now slightly wet) tailtip can only ever be an infuriating hint at the real thing.
It's still more than enough to make Adora whimper, just loudly enough to draw a sharp glance from Glimmer, whose look of concern turns to exasperation when she sees Catra's tail pushed up under the hem of Adora's dress.
"You're going to pay for this," Adora hisses through clenched teeth, and the promise in that threat sends a wave of anticipatory warmth down Catra's spine.
"Oh, princess," she whispers, pressing a quick kiss to her wife's cheek, "I'm counting on it."
