Earthbound: Right at Home [Complete] by DistantCrossing

"You two were always there for each other... even through your darkest moments..." You find yourself in an unfamiliar place, with no memory of your past, and with no idea of how you got to Onett in the first place. It wasn't a pretty arrival either, you were injured, covered in mud, and on top of that, it was raining. You really want to get home, but the journey back is a little... unsettling. However, even though every thing looked all new and strange, you couldn't help but feel close at home. A family was more than happy to help, you make new friends, and develop strong feelings for a strange boy with a red and blue cap along the way. A second person romance-fiction story. One of my first x-readers, but I hope you enjoy! Published: December 5th, 2016 Completed: October 23rd, 2017 -------------------- Credit goes to @Frisky_1 For making the cover! :3 Thank you so much, it looks great! XD I took it to picart and added more details, but credit goes to them for drawing most of the cover. That center picture of Ness was found on Pintrest and the artist is unknown. Credit goes to the orignal owner, I do not claim this art as mine.

The Chronicles of a Scalebound Sage: Reincarnated as a Hydra Familiar by ClarenceMoore3

Reincarnated As A Hydra (Book 1 Chapters [1] - [80]) The only thing the mage remembers is his death. He sees echoes of a war long lost and a fallen city vanished in the sands of time. He died but now he breathes again? He finds himself in a new form and given a new name and someone to protect. The mage turned hydra is bonded to the girl he now calls master. Bjorn lost his old life and when Freja's life is threatened he will do everything in his power to protect her and maybe find his memories along the way. "The Chronicles of a Scalebound Sage: Reincarnated as a Hydra" follows Bjorn as he protects Freja, his new master. She is scorned, beaten and disowned from her family for being a failure in the arcane arts. The two must lean on each other for strength to survive in a world of monsters and magic. This is a LitRPG adventure where every victory is a hard fought and death is quick to claim those that lack resolve. Wandmaker (Book 2) An ancient power stirs, sensing the impending return of the True Immortals. As the signs of untold destruction echo across the world, the urgent need for a new Wandmaker arises. They will be a beacon of hope in the turbulent time ahead. The veil between realms grows thin, and beings from beyond begin to awaken, their eyes fixed on the Lower Planes. Tanisha, Bjorn and Joha finally leave the Yuhia behind to travel to more peaceful lands. Their journey leads them to the floating human nation of the Force Isles. Along the way, they encounter fellow travelers and seize opportunities to trade their wares. However, the path to the Force Isles is fraught with peril. The once-safe passage has been corrupted by chaotic magic, transforming a routine voyage into a treacherous expedition.

KOTLC Oneshots by _Kurbee_

I have a lot of silly ideas for some of the characters and I wanna write some oneshots for those. This will include ships, platonic friendships, maybe the whole friend group too! Most of these will probably stay in the Lost Cities, but there may be some AUs, or some trips to the Forbidden Cities. Ships that'll probably be included will be Kam, Fedex, Marellinh, and Sophiana (these will probably be the main ones I write, especially Kam and Fedex). I can try to write other ships if anyone has any requests! Enjoy these silly oneshots! :D

Suggestive works will be either done of my own accord or are old works that I won't do anymore. - I may experiment if I'm in the mood. Some fics will be one-off things and not have a sequels. Some will have tropes that I won't replicate in any other work. - Some tropes/dynamics may recur across multiple fics. - Some old works are cringe and/or crack. Read at your own risk. Vast majority of this is meant to be lighthearted; if you find something offensive and/or problematic then please let me know so I can edit or delete it, thank you. - For all the parts that have an "aw bummer" cover pic, you're welcome to find a fitting pic for the ship or draw one yourself. --- ABBV.

As bonds develop, secrets churn, and words are exchanged, they get closer and closer to the mushrooms. All until the Kazcta becomes ill and too many lines have been crossed for Stealth to pretend it wouldn't hurt if he lost the big, surly, oaf. They make their way to the Kazcta's tribe and- Cue the fun. HEA chapter everyday.

A Drink Before Battle [MxM] ✅ by avaseofpeonies

General Sevei is of the firm opinion that Nobles are shady and Alchemists even shadier. Noble Alchemists are the absolute worst. He is not looking forward to partnering with one to guard the border. Upon their introduction, though, it would seem they have already met... under very intimate circumstances. Oh...,**** Set in the same world as Salvage, but we're going back in time for some Medieval sword and sorcery! This wholesome, happy-endings-all-around, smutty queer fantasy romance features an M/M main couple along with a host of supporting characters bringing some trans rep, some pan rep, some sex worker positivity, and even a straight ally who tries his darndest, bless his little puppy heart. Plenty of fluff, plenty of sexy times, a few funny bits, and our gang do all make it through the Horrors - but there is a war on, so there's also plenty of angst and a bit of bloody violence along the way. CW: Violence, violent death (no main characters), homophobic society, internalized homophobia and closeting, internalized transphobia (supporting character), war veteran ptsd, slavery (supporting character - no abuse of this character is depicted and sentiments are anti-slavery), strong language, detailed sexual content (all consensual), discussion of sex work.
