Summary
By the time he’d hit his 17th birthday, he’d sorted his life out.
It came down to this:
His name was Stiles Stilinski. He was the son of the Sheriff and his wife, deceased, and his best friend was Scott McCall, an ex-asthmatic werewolf with a nurse mother and an absent father. He was the cleverest in his class, after the strawberry blonde he had a crush on, and he had been diagnosed with ADHD at the age of seven. On full moons, he ran around and cooked for the local pack of werewolves. And he was a demon changeling.Stiles has managed to avoid Hell and its natives for near 16 years. He's almost managed to fool himself he's human. And best friend who smells of wet dog or not, he thinks he'd got a pretty good deal with this second chance at a life, and is planning to stick with it. But, unknown to Stiles, the new king of Hell has other ideas...

Summary
"It was a cool night, dark but not empty, slight noises and distant smells creating the atmosphere. They had not yet reached smog levels, but the air was certainly thicker than Serkanos, even this close to the shoreline. Salty bile tingled on his tongue as he headed closer to the sea, crossing the royal gardens and climbing across a vent along the lock-side, gaining a better vantage point. Beneath him water lapped at the walls with finite consistency. Corvo drew the heart, aiming nowhere in particular, and listening intently.
'For the first time in centuries, he walks the shores once more.'
Corvo, restless in the time of peace following Emily's crowning, finds The Outsider washed up on Dunwall's shore, weakened from unknown causes and disturbingly human. Working together with what was once a god wasn't what Corvo had expected, and they must hide The Ousider's identity while keeping him in the tower, as well as 'borrowing' Sokolov's research into the void to send the deity back. Maybe it was the humanity that does it, in the end.

Summary

He came to understand more about himself and find his place in the world, but what he finds instead is a strong, unbreakable friendship group and a hot neighbour. In which Greed is the weird abrasive neighbour, Ed and Winry are the ultimate wingmen, Al is his usual sweetheart self and Ling is a tired politics student who just likes coffee and needs sleep.
Oh, and the promised day might be closer than you think. No big deal.Inspired by a Tumblr AU post by Transstark
