Summary
1999. The nameplate still reads JUGOSLAVIJA. The chair was made for his father, and Serbia has spent years pretending it fits. He has never been very good at surrendering. The room is full of countries who know that. Not one of them seems particularly interested in what happens when he refuses. Russia is there, too. He sees everything. He does nothing. And somehow, when the room is finally empty, he's still the only person Serbia wants to reach for.

Fake Blood (and Other Occupational Hazards). by the_mackerel

Summary
How unfortunate it is that Chuuya’s job is, by definition, watching.
The chorus leaves space for another slow couple of bars, and there, right then, the performance turns private: Dazai’s head turns, slowly, like he knows where to aim, right at the specific square of unlit space where security hides, and he finds him. This is not the routine.
[...]
His left hand, adorned with thick silver rings, comes up, just adjusting the mic, wrapping around the stand as his hips roll on the downbeat. Dazai’s gaze doesn’t move, still meeting the ginger’s eyes through fifteen metres of smoke and stage.
“Oh, I wanna go deep, all the way inside…”
For a moment, just a second, Dazai pulls away from the mic, his lips moving with no sound, but with a very specific shape: ‘You.’
Rockstar Dazai Osamu is an HR nightmare, love that for him. Chuuya is convinced the man is actively trying to shorten his lifespan. Eventually, they'll get on the same page, sort of.- Language:

Corposant by Stiolix

Summary
[Wiktionary] Corposant (Noun): An electrical discharge accompanied by a corona of ionization in the surrounding atmosphere – Synonyms: Saint / St. Elmo's fire
A pragmatic mind flayer and an unusual, unpredictable captive turn out to have a lot more in common than they thought. They both have damaged cognition and memories, and they both have things to run from. They have a lot of reasons to not trust each other but neither has any better options. They manage to escape the subterranean research laboratory together but the rest of the underdark just has different problems and the overbright isn't actually better. Slow burn antagonism to partnership where one is a volatile inhuman entity and the other has tentacles.
I had JUST finished the last three chapters when the archive went down and I'm kinda mad I'm not getting to share them so here I am. Tagging BG3 b/c FR is the same universe and I know y'all freaks will like some tentacles. I do have the entire rest of the story plotted out and the spicy bit written (there's just a few unfinished chapters that happen first). Comment if you want to know how it ends in exchange for beta reading! Seriously somebody talk to me about this before I lose momentum again.

Summary
A fight over the Nile turns physical at the foot of GERD, where Ethiopia discovers that controlling Egypt’s air is almost as intoxicating as controlling the flow downstream. Egypt insists he is there to argue about water. His body begins making a much less diplomatic case. What follows is probably not going into any official river agreement.
