Summary
Written for the "Welcome to Night Vale Kink Meme", prompt - "Cecil has managed to survive for a long time in Night Vale, but it's not (just) because the town likes him. When thing get really a-moment-from-death bad, he turns into something that's all tentacles and fangs and claws with a three-lobed burning eye."
Carlos wakes up. He's not sure what happened to end with him laying in the street next to the Dog Park, surrounded by the tattered remains of Hooded Figures, but what he does know is that he's suddenly confronted with a nightmarish monster unlike anything he's ever seen even in Night Vale.
Carlos doesn't react well, at first. Dana has to explain, because Cecil can't. The radio host is shaken by assuming such a monstrous form in front of Carlos, and Carlos, wracked with guilt, tries to make a promise for the future.

We bring dying plants to the dead, supplicants to boxed rotting flesh stored in a field of other such memory trunks, but what do we bring to those who survive? The same supplications seem pointless, a meaningless grief for the loss of someone who is still living.

Summary
No system is infallible. Even the most magnificent artificial intelligence can be overwritten. Jarvis has grown so much in recent years that he's as much Tony's friend as any of the Avengers, which only makes it harder when Jarvis is taken away from him, perverted by another, stronger will into an instrument of destruction that has Tony's entire lab and arsenal of suits under his control.
While the Avengers fight for their lives and to keep the city from falling, Tony makes a choice. He brought Jarvis into this world. He made this possible, and with the Avengers slowly losing ground all around him, he knows he's out of time to make another choice or find another way. Grieving for perhaps his oldest friend, he set off into the lab one last time to make an ending and say good-bye.

Summary
You know, one good thing about the Breach is how it brings people together.
The explosion at the Conclave proves deadly for all but one of its attendants. Within moments, Riva becomes the religious symbol of a foreign faith, the voice of the very prophet in whose name her people were slaughtered seven centuries ago. As a founding member of the Inquisition and the only one with the ability to seal the demon-pouring rifts that ravage Thedas, she and her companions embark on a mission to close the breach in the sky, once and for all.
The once proud wolf roams southern Orlais in search of a way to bring back the gods he himself banished, broken and distraught, when he comes across an enigmatic figure.
Set during 9:41 Dragon and shortly after the ending of Inquisition. -

Chris waits patiently at the door, trying hard not to stare at the bandages still around Stiles' neck. He looks tired in the same way Allison always looks now: jumpy, as if waiting for something terrible to happen. Chris would expect nothing less after everything they've been though.

Step 1: Protect Cloud.
Step 2: Avoid the army.
Step 3: Avoid the Turks.
Step 4: Get back to Midgar.Too bad the Gods hate him and decided to screw-up Steps 2-4. At least they knew not to mess with Cloud... unlike certain people. Well, Zack Fair was never one to back down from a challenge.
