HUNTING THE STARS #2. As the rebels recover from a shocking betrayal, conflict rages relentlessly on multiple planets. With Lukas begging to go to war, Yao is torn between keeping him safe and letting him fight. Lovino and Feliciano, threatened by a mercenary, must stay under the radar to survive. And the question of what to do with the bounty hunters and their friends remains...

Why was it so hard to explain? And then, even once he got through the explanation without people misinterpreting, why was it so hard for them to understand? He wasn't broken. They weren't unattractive. Alfred was just asexual. [EmbrAce Series]

The world was brighter than it had ever been before, but all Lovino could see were those red eyes. Or better: how a sailor and a merman fell in love.

Alice was in Paris, in France, with French people, who all spoke French, and she, from London, in England, an English person, who spoke English, did not speak French. [Nyotalia]

Margherita hated Eleonora because she was told she abandoned them. Yet, life finds a funny way of throwing you for a loop and Margherita learns that there is more to the story about this sister who left without a single word. {TW: Emotional abuse, parental abuse, manipulation, child abuse}

#romanoweek2019: A series of drabbles based on themes presented by this year's romanoweek on tumblr.

Rich, spoiled kid Lovino Vargas hates pirates. Pirate captain Antonio Carriedo hates rich, spoiled kids. None of them ever thought they could feel something different from hatred towards one another. However, Fate seems to have different plans for them, and twists their lives in unexpected ways. (WARNINGS INSIDE.)

"I'm Gilbert. Would you like to travel the universe with me?" - In which they do exactly that.

When I stared in the mirror, I didn't know who I was looking at. There was a stranger looking at me. Her face too round, her body too feminine. She was not me. She was someone I had been posing as and I couldn't stand the sight of her.

A short drabble collection for a few of my beloved APH ships!/Set in an Human AU/Mafia AU/Contains OCs / Ships: SpaMano,ScotFra,RoChu,AusHun,PruCan,TurGre,FrUK,AmeViet,GerIta,AusBel,RusViet (Platonic)

(Used to be "Bunny"; new title suggested by purenguyening on Tumblr.) Romano is a good friend and lover, so he keeps Spain's most embarrassing secret hidden for centuries. But Romano is also a little shit, so he mocks the hell out of him, too. Spamano. One-shot.

It was always terrifying to explain to someone, but Gilbert was in love. He was in love and afraid of ruining it, but it wasn't a conversation he could avoid forever. [EmbrAce Series]

Antonio and Lovi are getting married! Of course, this is Pleasantville, so things aren't going to go smoothly at all. What would be the fun in that? Gen!flip AU. Part of the Pleasantville Series.

Lovino has been unrighteously charged for crimes he did not commit and has been sent to teach at a remote northern Magical College. There, he meets Antonio, who makes the never-ending cold a little warmer.

Jaded by normal, high-school lives, once Alfred and Matthew discover angels and demons actually exist, they're like, 'Whoa' and it's totally awesome...right? They have to hide their secrets from their loving father while they deal with whatever angst teenagers typically deal with, AND whatever beef these guys have with each other.

He was sour and insecure, aggressive and juvenile. The man was lazy and weak like his brother but lacked any of the softness. Unless you were a pretty girl. Then he was all charm and sexuality. Lovino Vargas was a creature of great confusion to Ludwig.

Italia Romano is a dreamer, a fighter, a rural laborer-a nation with too much riding on his young shoulders, with eyes that have seen too much. (Romano character study)

Matthias and his team of bounty hunters are some of the best in the galaxy, able to catch anyone they set their minds to. But, after taking on the task of hunting down members of three scattered royal families who have been missing for years, the group finds themselves getting pulled into the war between the imperious Union and the volatile Resistance - with no way to get out of it

There is a first time for everything, and for Lovino it's breakfast at Matthew's.

Tired of being persecuted for simply existing, Gilbert decided to move to the most well-protected sanctuary in the world. Now, he and his brother simply have to settle in. [Intro Fic of the Spooky Town Verse]

Abel goes for a cup of coffee before dinner. (Themes of eating disorders/disordered behaviors)

"The color on Emil's face fades when he hears Lukas' voice exclaim something in a loud, unfriendly tone."

Just two husbands and their dog spending some quality time in the snow.

Romano's feelings for Spain are complicated.

While on vacation in Spain, Arthur gets very drunk and gets injured in a sadly common way. His doctor, an infuriatingly handsome and charming Spaniard, is more than tired of dealing with idiotic tourists. Throw in the mix a corny French nurse and an even more idiotic German, and watch as madness unfolds. (SpUK)

Matthew loves his boyfriends dearly and this is how they spend their weekends together.

Chance encounters with strangers in heavy rain are not specifically Ludwig's forte, but he makes due.

Seborga doesn't like the silence. Yet he'll never be willing to admit that to his brothers, no. (Oneshot!)

The Italies have a day of remembrance.

Sometimes, things go according to plan.

In a world where your soulmate is supposed to complete you, Madeline and Ingrid feel as if there is something is missing. The feeling continues to persist until they meet Chiara and find that sometimes the universe should really just shut up. [Nyotalia]

Isabel is married to the witch of her life and likes to make sure she knows. [Nyotalia]

As her brother stood at the altar with his bride, Ingrid found her attention caught by the maid of honour instead. [Nyotalia]

Their meetings are few and far between, but something blossoms between them anyway, even after the years chip away at them.

Toris and Feliks, two princes from neighboring nations, are betrothed from an early age and meet every summer to try and improve their relations. As expected, the two princes don't get along at all. But perhaps that's just the immaturity of youth and there's something hidden below the surface? Swan Princess/Human AU, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth setting. LietPol.

"As the prince grew, he learned how to give himself two legs instead of a tail and he would attempt to leave the hot springs to walk amongst the humans. But alas, his adventures started fires and famines from the scorching heat. He destroyed all dry land that he touched and brought misery in his attempts." {TW: Implied sexual abuse, abusive relationship, anxiety, and depression}

He was constantly looking at her, adoring her, finding the things about her he loved the most. Yet, she was always so far away, changing, never the same person he fell in love with the time before. What remained was that she was absolutely timeless. {birthday gift for @basement-prussia on Tumblr}

"Have you ever been torn apart from the inside? Have you ever found in yourself your worst enemy? I have, multiple times. And until very recently I thought I'd gotten used to it." Having barely survived a civil war, Spain faces with dread the possibility of being forced to join WWII; a feeling only worsened by a visit he'd rather not receive. One-shot.

There are many unknown things in the world. While anthropomorphic personifications of countries is one of them, they are still nothing compared to mochis.

A step-by-step guide for Yao to cheer up Kiku when he is upset. Cozy and warm little story, we hope you enjoy it.

The rule of soulmates was that you got up to four. Two platonic and two romantic. And you never knew who was who. Sometimes you got all four, sometimes three, sometimes two, sometimes one. Or even, the saddest one to many, none at all. Antonio had none until that fateful day he walked into that restaurant with the one rude waiter to change it all.

What's sexier than a naked man? A man in suit and fedora with a stray curl on the center—and really, America gets totally distracted because of it.

Spain never knew what they meant until now. (Rated T for safety because I'm a paranoid fanfic writer)

"Do you like Alfred?" "No." — "Are you in love with him?" "...Yes." / Alternatively: That time Lovino fell in love and hated every second of it. [AU]

England was there in France's darkest moments of self-loathing and despair. Now, he finally sees him shine. This is my work for the Hetalia Writers' Discord's OTP Event, inspired by the prompts "close" and "why are you crying?"

Austria has always been fascinated with his lovers' hair. – This fanfic consists of three "drabbles" written for the second creatorsofhetalia prompt "night" on tumblr/Discord, using the prompt "greedy". They're captioned, so you can decide to read just one (or two) of them if you only ship one (or two) of my three OTPs (SpAus, AusHun, PruAus).

Alfred, Kiku, and Ivan can't believe they've stumbled on the world's most interesting secret. Their funny, loveable Spanish teacher is dating their super strict Physics professor.

"He is a knight, just the prince's personal guard. It is his sworn duty to protect. Hope was never part of the job description." Lovino is a lovesick royal guard to the world's most beautiful royal. Tooth rotting fluff.

In which Romano needs an outlet and America is intoxicatedly inlove.

There were three things Spain had learned in today's meeting: First, America, like any other nations, could get tired and exhausted; Second, someone in particular had the role of taking care of him whenever the need arose; And third, a couple of other nations knew this settlement and were determined to protect it at any cost.

Feliciano Vargas hates his name but he can't escape it. Not when it's tied in so tightly to the Calabrian mafia. When their drug trade seems to be under attack by a mister Antonio Carriedo, Feliciano and Lovino find themselves in Naples with a certain German body guard. NOT A ROMANCE. Rating may go up. OOC; AU; HU; MP?; AV; PH

Francis is bullied on his way back from school. Rescue comes from an unexpected place. Human, high-school AU.

Antonio and Lovino are having a little talk. A drabble for NordicsAwesome

An alpha and an omega can be bound by pheromones-induced destiny, but an alpha and another alpha can be bound by deep-seated trust, overflowing affection and never-ending love. [Romerica Omegaverse Excerpts]

Life is not always about rainbows and sunshine; Life, especially when you're dealing with emotional difficulties, is even more prone to heavy rains, raging storms and maddening hurricanes. America introspects.

A casual discussion of a pasta dish has escalated rather quickly to a casual yet sincere proposal, and now, Italia Romano finds himself in front of all the nations he is so used to run away from as he stands fearless in the name of love.

'Amidst the darkness, light could still come out,' Arthur realized as he witnessed how Lovino and Alfred, two people who were consumed by their own madness, found solace in each other's presence. [AU]

1808. War rages all across Europe. In the midst of the chaos, a Spanish battalion sent to Denmark finds peace in a few villages, where two kindred souls will meet. Theirs is a story of a hidden love, broken English, the promise of return and a long overdue reunion. Written for the Tumblr event A Brief History of Time.

1634: Imperial and Bavarian troops are about to besiege the Protestant Imperial City of Nördlingen and its Swedish garrison. The siege gets delayed when Austria and the Imperial commander Ferdinand of Hungary learn about the arrival of the long awaited Spanish army with Spain and its commander, Don Fernando. Antonio inspires his war-weary husband with some much-needed reassurance.

Romano has his own expectation on how his first kiss with America will be, and apparently, so does America. However, neither is aware that expectations don't always meet reality. (That doesn't mean reality never exceeds expectations, though.)

England and Spain share a long and bloody history. By the time England decides to give the finishing blow in Cartagena de Indias, they have been at war plenty of times before—and once, just once, lovers. Written for the Tumblr event A Brief History of Time.

Collection of one-shots for Spamano Week 2018.

What happens when a military training exercise goes wrong? One-shot.

Alice is beautiful in bad weather, and it makes Isabel want to kiss her. Nyotalia fluff written for Rainbow it up in here from Caesar's Palace, and @bonny-and-blythe contest on Tumblr

Lance is a mer fascinated with humans. His favorite past times include; swimming too close to shore, collecting anything human he finds, and visiting the cove outside of town to watch his favorite human. Keith is a lighthouse operator. His hobbies include; having few friends, avoiding everyone else in town, and night walks at the cove to stargaze.

Alfred was perfect and always will be. Chiara wasn't and will never be. That's why she broke up with him. That's why she ignored that lost and broken stare Alfred gave her at that restaurant. He'll get over her. She was never good enough for him anyway. *Chiara's side from the drabble Time*

Like any other of their treasured kisses, a sense of coolness washed over Keith's entire being. It was a cold wave washing over his soul when they kissed, quenching the scorching fire that made up his personality. [edit: warning old and really crappy fic]

Chiara looked happy. And that was good. Mostly. Alfred's chest still hurt and he still thinks about them growing old and having kids. But that's okay. Its his fault he never saw it coming. She's always been out of his league.

Switzerland discovers that America has a job, in a bar of all places. Inspired by Billy Joel's 'Piano Man'.

There are things Lance knows about the Earth he didn't know he knew—and now that they're gone, the space they leave is all too noticeable. Langst and homesickness. Character study drabble/oneshot.

Lance wants to get closer to Keith but can't figure out how, until he's reminded of a scared, shy little kitten he once befriended. Just a little drabble based on my real life experience working with kittens. Laith/Klance.

Heartbroken and bitter over being left behind, Lovino resolutely works to finish his last year of high school, having previously flunked out. The problem is that while his aspirations remain positive, his reasons for doing so wrongly lie in proving a certain Spaniard wrong. (Spamano, Spain x Romano).

Calculus sucks. Fortunately for Lovino, so does Antonio. In more ways than one. Part of the Talk Dirty to Me collection.

Lance knew that was no way to speak to a teacher. Especially when said teacher had the say in who got to be in the exhibition the university hosted each semester, which was the way most students caught the attention of a good publisher. But this guy had the gall to call him, tell him there was a scheduling misunderstanding, and now they could only have one student in the gallery.

Lance and Shiro are escaped laborers-turned-bounty hunters trying to earn safe passage back home. Things take an interesting turn when they acquire a particularly lucrative bounty: the Galra crown prince. Written for Potential Zine. Cover art by co-creator @PitchGold (Tumblr)

When the Earthlings mention a tradition called a secret santa, Coran helps the Paladins organize one in the castleship. The event helps with the holiday cheer but also has an unintended consequence when Keith and Lance draw each other's names. Written for the klance holiday exchange 2017. Crossposted from AO3.

3 times Lance didn't notice Keith flirting with him, and 1 time he finally did. klance coffeeshop au, barista!keith. Keith POV.

Keith is having a crummy day, when suddenly he feels a warmth from the soulmark on his shoulder. Things are about to get very interesting. Written for Potential Zine. Featuring original art by @starryrings (tumblr).

Antonio's bike gets a flat tire in the middle of nowhere. Good thing a charming stranger drives by and offers him a ride. Loosely based on the Smiths' song 'This Charming Man.'

When a joint mission brings Keith and Lance closer together, they decide to keep things under wraps, at least until they figure things out for themselves. Inspired by "universe won't wait for you" by agrestenoir (ao3). Written for the VLD Fanfic Remix 2017.

Or how to confess to your lifelong crush. (Boy do I suck at summaries...) One-shot.

Jealousy was an emotion that Lovino rather preferred he not be associated with, even if it was something he often felt the tendrils of creeping up his body and wrapping their way around his heart.

FRUK One shot. Hurt/Comfort. Was Arthur really crying over something like that? Francis sees a side of Arthur he never knew existed, and it is both surprising and humbling.

After ten years of living as the youngest of four children, Arthur Kirkland is firmly convinced that older brothers are useless at best, a nuisance at worst. The introduction of six-year-old Alfred into his life is the first of many changes that force Arthur to reconsider his position. (Human AU)

Ambitious and power-hungry writer, Antonio Fernandez-Carriedo has built himself an empire that touches the stars and has nearly reached the top. The only factor keeping him from doing so is Lorenzo Vargas, a stubborn critic who happens to abhor his writing with the promise of never giving him a good review. {for Tonio}

By the time he was twelve years of age, Roderich clearly knew that his passion lay in music, and when his thirteenth birthday slipped around the corner, he was well versed in composing his own, though self-doubt began to tail him once he reached fourteen. Coincidentally, the same time that he met Basch and Lili Zwingli in the park and when something else begins to plague him.

Ludwig might have a bit of a crush on one of his best friends, but he's fine with pining from a distance. Absolutely fine. Luckily for him, the pining is quite mutual. [HS Shenanigans Verse]

Lovino didn't expect to make a new friend on his very first day at a new school. One-shot.

Alfred and Arthur are a pair of china dolls that have always been together, but a deal made with a wooden man on another shelf places the life they have always know in jeopardy. USUKUS.

*FrUk/UkFr* FACE Victorian Human AU. Francis loved too easily, and had always wanted a family with Arthur. But being a man of fashion had made that nearly impossible, until he came across two urchins living on the streets. Later PruCan. (Rated M for language, strong violence in parts and sexual themes).

"De pronto me miras, te miro y suspiras, yo cierro los ojos, tú apartas la vista; apenas respiro, me hago pequeñito y me pongo a temblar." One-shot; song-fic.

Factor in the fact that the man was quite literally immortal and would spring back from death as easily as a gymnast from a hard fall- it was perfect. The personification of Northern Italy could be his personal spy.

"Do you think God cursed us?" Those were the words that slipped past pale lips, gently brushing to the ears of the man next to him, a slight quiver breaking the blissfulness of the moment. Hazel eyes stared up blankly at the night sky for a moment and thought deep among the twinkling stars. "No, I think he blessed us." {prumano oneshot}

(Don't be scared by the title — it's in English.) It may not be perfect, but the system Spain and France established many years ago seems to work just fine. Though he misses her terribly when she's not with him, Spain couldn't be happier when it's his turn to have her over. And, one more year, the time has come. One-shot.

Short Spamano fanfiction. I would say its more hurt/comfort and possibly a small bit of angst. Rated T just to be safe. Pairing is Spamano [Spain X Romano].

As a race engineer, Roderich Edelstein is the right hand of Formula 1 driver Antonio Fernández Carriedo. Roderich works hard to ensure Antonio is able to make the most of his car at all times. With rivals who never rest and up-to-date technical gadgets that aren't always reliable, theirs is a demanding job. Being hopelessly in love with each other doesn't make things easier.

Death is a strange concept for those cursed with immortality. (Deleted and reposted due to formatting errors. Sorry about that.)

Trying to escape from an unrequited crush, Lovino finds himself living with personifications of the Seven Deadly Sins. These demons, however, end up becoming his greatest allies. Two-shot.

At Tenerife, the captain of Arthur's ship wants him to stay on the island for a while in order to teach his language to Antonio, a merchant's son. Arthur is smitten by the beautiful Spaniard, but will he dare to show his feelings to him?

Two worlds collide when Francis Bonnefoy, journalist for the weekly news magazine Lens and proud coffee snob, is assigned to share an office with Arthur Kirkland. Arthur habitually drinks yesterday's cold coffee in the mornings and seems unwilling to acquire a taste for high quality coffee beans. Then again, there's more to life (and office mornings) than coffee drinking habits.

When Adrien is kidnapped, Marinette becomes Ladybug to rescue him. But where is Cat Noir? REWITTEN

Alfred had always been afraid of ghosts. Well, only the one ghost that had been following him for his whole life and happened to look just like him. After a chance encounter with this ghost, the two begin to build a strange friendship, and Alfred's life starts to fall apart-and maybe make a little sense, too.

SPAMANO- Antonio was a recovering alcoholic. Lovina wanted nothing to do with him. Lots of Spamano and angst; whatever floats your shipping boat. fem! (poor) Romano x (rich) Spain.

Lovino didn't want to wake him up. Antonio wonders why he didn't. One-shot; song-fic.

1741. England, dead set on destroying the Spanish Empire, sends the biggest fleet to the date with the sole purpose of taking the city of Cartagena, the key to all the Spanish colonies. Widely outnumbered, Spain can only trust the wit of a one-armed, one-eyed, one-legged admiral: Blas de Lezo.

Arthur only cooked on the fourth of July, even when his boys didn't visit on that day. He liked the feeling of familiarity it procured him, warming his heart with happy memories of sunny summer morning filled with cheerful laughter and jovial conversations.

After an encounter with Pirate!Arthur Antonio makes a wish to the Britannia Angel; AU; Conquistador!Spain, Pirate!Arthur;

They called him South for he knew nobody, and nobody knew him. His coffee was nothing special, but those eyes - they seemed to stare into the vastness of the universe. {spamano one-shot}

SPAMANO- Lovino forgets his book in class one day. He doesn't think anything of it when he initially retrieves it, until he notices his bookmark's been replaced! What the hell sort of note is this supposed to be? And what kind of idiot leaves a note in a random library book anyway? Obviously not one who would remember to sign their name. (Fic exchange with CodeVassie :) )

Our dear and beloved reader waltzes into the scene too many times and manages to cause more chaos than a war and more love rivals than a harem anime. Come on, let's try to be realistic here...

A Cinderella story, retold through the eyes of our favourite Spaniard and Italian. Lovino doesn't have a fairy godmother nor the kindness nor the luck. just a string of coincidences to a happily ever after? A proper feel good story with some angst. Spamano, fairytale AU, Cinderella retold my way, not the Disney way. Rated for mild swearing

Lovino's neighbors are strange.

Based on thesearchingastronaut's sad altean!lance au from tumblr: "Lance is Allura's brother and is still the blue Paladin. He was the former Red Paladin's fiancé.

Merlin always thought Arthur would come back to him, one way or another.

All Romano wanted was for Spain to think that he's 'irresistibly' cute. Now add drunk England to the mix. The result?: a spell gone horribly wrong, a justifiably grumpy cat, and a still woefully oblivious Spaniard. Multi-Chapter/ Nekotalia. Neko! Romano.

It's Christmas Day and Lovino is stuck working at his shitty job. A weird guy comes along and keeps him company. They talk. A lot. They talk about books, authors, ethics, and morals, because that's how you celebrate Christmas, right? Also, the weird guy is seriously cute. Now available in Russian! Check my bio for link.
