    Summary

    Based on the amazing Corzev's tragic time-travel AU (link inside)

    Rescue arrives for Sephiroth while he is still a child.
    It arrives in the form of a blank-faced blonde-haired hero who cannot look at him;
    Who tends his wounds, and speaks kindly, but whose eyes are filled with hate and fear.

    If only Sephiroth knew the rules of this world outside the labs, maybe he could figure out how to stop making Cloud so angry...

    Summary

    30 Days of Alternate Universes
    Most recent chapter: Reincarnation

    But that first naptime, as he drifted off, something stirred inside him that left his dreams uneasy.

    Cloud unfolded from within the child, like a flower blossoming. He was not real. He was the boy. He was himself. He was angry.

    He looked down at the silver-haired child before him. Looked down at him as he crouched behind his own reincarnation.

    “Why,” He asked the sleeping child, looking so innocent, so soft, so small. “Won’t you just stay dead?”

    “I could ask you the same.” Said a voice that did not come from the child’s mouth. Cloud watched Sephiroth fade into being. Spectral and dangerous and inhuman as ever. Not sweet, or innocent, or small in the slightest.

    He loomed behind his reincarnation. A doom over the child. A curse. His wing arching over his back marked him as inhuman. Cloud lay a hand over his reincarnation’s head, as if he could guard him.

    Summary

    After years of waiting, Sephiroth finds his soulmate during a botched mission to Nibelheim. Cloud is not the supportive, obedient soulmate Sephiroth had been expecting, but he doesn't have time to worry about it as they run from Shinra and look for answers.

    Where Sephiroth is a bad at relationships, but is also traumatized after Jenova/Hojo/Shinra/soulmate expectations, Cloud is stressed out fluff trying to do his best fixing the past, and Zack keeps everyone alive.

    For Shinichi, asking questions had always come second nature; the tricky part was untangling the Kaitou KID's answers.

    Summary

    “Okie-dokes.” Kuroba shakes himself, and then turns to wave at the waiting group of suspects and witnesses with a reassuring smile. They stare blankly at him.

    “They’re traumatized, Kaito-san.”

    “I know. That’s why I’m being nice.”

    Shinichi grabs Kuroba’s jacket and starts yanking him toward the group, ignoring his annoyed muttering. In Kuroba’s defense, he’s very good at looking reassuring. It’s just a lot less effective when he’s standing next to the corpse.

    ——————

    When a magician seemingly murders an audience member in the middle of a show, no one but Conan can even begin to figure out all the tricks of this case. Naturally, Megure talks to Nakamori, who recommends the one and only magic expert that he knows: Kuroba Kaito.
