Can Infinite Knowledge Help With Parenting? by Tha_goon

Summary
Because at the end of the day, Derek Hutchins wasn’t some paragon of virtue and generosity. Derek Hutchins was a human. An arrogant, greedy, selfish human. A human who wanted to survive and live a life he assigned meaning to. A part of him hoped that Avery was included in that.
“You and I can work together. To escape the inevitability of death, we recycle life and become born anew. Birth to negate death. Knowledge stemming from curiosity to give way to change.”
The knight closed his eyes once more, the piercing headache that demanded itself to be known slowly receding into his mind like a sea wave pulling back offshore, preparing to create a tsunami. A sea wave that swept his consciousness away, funneling it elsewhere to form a natural disaster that he wasn’t privy to.
On January 14th, Derek Hutchins awoke to the sun beaming on his face.
And a quiet coo of a baby swaddled in a yellow blanket, demanding his attention.

Summary
Coco was close, so close that the possibility of failing at this point clouded her judgment regarding her next moves.
She reached out as far as she could, applying more pressure with her torso and knees, which served as support.
Heat radiated from Riche’s skin, and the mere sensation emboldened Coco enough to reach for her quickly and pull her as if her life depended on it. Riche was pulled away, sliding to a safer spot than Coco’s current position by sheer momentum.
When she looked back, three pairs of stunned eyes watched her in silence. Their expressions hovered in a limbo between anxiety and fear, unsure of how to react to what they had just witnessed.
Still, Coco… She had done it! She had saved her friend from danger! She can finally do something! She—!
“COCO!”The ice finally gave way beneath her feet.
[Or, the girls go to practice magic and an accident happens. Qifrey isn't taking it very well, and neither is Olruggio.]

What Do We Do With A Drunken Sailor? [sonadow exchange 2026] by Anonymous for mouselands
Fandoms: Sonic the Hedgehog - All Media Types
20 Jun 2026

Summary
A shallow breeze passes by, at some point, and Sonic thinks he can smell a hint of lavender in the air, causing him to raise an eye ridge. He looks around.
How odd.
He hears some noise from below, in the water. This is to be expected, of course. Water moves. But, for a second, he thinks he sees something.
Carefully, he steps closer to the railing, peeking over the side.
Something splashes above water, briefly.
A fin? A tentacle?
He takes a few more steps forward; rests a paw against the rail.
Curiously, he leans forward more and more.
He sees… red eyes?
Are those eyes?
And then, suddenly…
…he’s leaned too far forward.

Summary
I’m making the list of oneshots and their main characters in the first chapter this time instead of the summary cause last time I ran out of characters like twice Qwq
So anyway… another monthly prompt challenge anyone?
I’m doing June of Doom this year, and I don’t know what I’ll cook up but I know last time I missed a few days, so I’m just gonna make my goal to minimize that, because a poorly strung up fic is better than none at all… well, sometimes at least.Series

Summary
Sonic's got enough problems already: a rival coffee shop, a crush on the annoyingly attractive barista who works there, and a mysterious sea monster that keeps washing him out of dangerous situations.
The monster keeps getting dragged into Sonic’s problems… Meanwhile, he keeps appearing at exactly the right moment for the monster. (Oh, and Shadow keeps flirting with him.)
Surely these are three completely separate things.
...Right?

Summary
Nothing about the small cell of rock and metal is comfortable, but Rumi rests her head against the wall and resists the urge to lay a hand on Jinu’s face. He’s quiet, but not dead. Gwi-Ma can’t kill his leverage, but Rumi doesn’t like the alternative any more.
It’s no surprise that the demon king has a deal for her: break the Honmoon she worked so hard to create, or Jinu suffers. There is no good choice, no winning here. Jinu however, insisted on which she should choose. To hold firm, no matter what he does to him. Said that Gwi-Ma would do so much worse if she gave him a path to the surface.
She knows he’s right. It doesn’t make it any easier.
Rumi doesn’t think she’ll ever get his screams out of her head.
(Or Gwi-Ma wants Rumi to use her power to break the Honmoon. If threat of torture won’t sway her resolve, maybe it will if it’s Jinu. However, no matter what happens, Jinu continuously tells her to be strong and hold out.
Rumi doesn’t know how much longer she can last.)
