Summary
He heard her sigh and expected her to walk away. Instead, he suddenly had a Red Room assassin on his back, arms and legs wrapped around him in a full-body grip. He grunted and pitched forward, grabbing onto the edge of the kitchen island for stability. "What are the hell are you doing?" he demanded, turning his head and staring at her in disbelief.
"Hugging you," said Yelena. "Like we do when Bob says that he always makes things worse."
"I'm not gonna turn into the Void," John huffed, struggling to shrug her off.
"No, but you are talking shit about yourself and I don't like that." Yelena clung to him even more stubbornly. "None of us should be doing that anymore."
John leaned both elbows on the counter and sighed. "So... what, you're just gonna jump on me if I start talking about what a fuckup I am?"
"Yes." Yelena did not smile, but her eyes glittered with mirth. "And I will tell everyone else to do that, too. It's a new house rule."
~*~
Five times that John receieved a hug, and one time that he received a little something more.

Summary
Helaena Targaryen loves her brother Aemond, but she needs him to get out of her house. Aemond reluctantly agrees to go with her to see their nephew's band, even though the last time they saw each other Aemond's dog killed Luke's dog, and Luke ended up with two broken legs. The time before that, Luke stabbed Aemond in the face.
Perhaps this meeting will go better?
(It will. Helaena knows exactly what she's doing.)

Summary
“So, Aemond,” Aegon starts, hands clammy with sweat, “can I call you Aemond?”
Fucking nail it.
Aemond looks at him like a rare lowly insect he wants to vivisect, which is fair. “No,” his little brother says, voice filled with sarcasm.
Or, Aegon confronts Aemond on his crush.

Summary
Three years after the war, Draco Malfoy has exiled himself to a remote Scottish island, alone except for his house elf and an illegal library of books he uses to understand what he became. When the Ministry sends Harry Potter to investigate reports of magical disturbances, Harry finds Draco gaunt, isolated, and losing control - his unconscious magic now commands the weather itself, responding to emotions he's spent two years trying not to feel.
Trapped together by a storm of Draco's own making, four days of forced proximity crack open everything they've both been avoiding. But intensity born in isolation doesn't always survive the real world, and Harry must decide what to put in his report - and whether what's growing between them can outlast the breaking of the storm.
A post-war Tempest AU about redemption, unconscious magic, and learning that surrender isn't the same as defeat.
