War is here, but happiness can still be found in the cottage Vivian now calls home…until, of course, someone from her past returns, tragedy strikes, and the world that she has built for herself comes crashing down. A new purpose rises from the ashes, and with it comes a new Vivian Blair, who must learn to live without the ones she has come to love. Sirius/OC

Roselyn Larson won her Games five years ago, and her life has since then become a never-ending trial. Forced into the dark underbelly of Capitol society, she doesn't have much to live for. Until, that is, she meets Cato Hadley, the newest Victor who is pleasantly naïve about the horrors of the Capitol. Cato/OC

If Svana thought she was through with Riften, she's wrong. Ulfric ships her off to the very city she hates more than any other. Her mission? To fix up Riften. Unfortunately, her only ally is the very same corrupt Thane who had once blackmailed her. Yet, despite their difficult beginnings, Svana soon discovers there's more to Mallus than she'd thought. Mallus Maccius/F!DB AU

Pretending to be a thief isn't exactly on Svana's to-do list, but Delphine's scheme to find Esbern involves doing just that. Brynjolf has no idea that the dirty street rat he welcomes into the Guild is actually the Dragonborn. Falling in love with him was also not a part of the plan, but alas, things tend to go sideways when thieves are involved. Brynjolf/FDB

As a specialist in Inca culture, Josie should have known better than to meddle with ancient curses. Now cursed herself, bad luck follows her everywhere and she can't seem to catch a break. If that isn't enough, the man she's been in love with for as long as she can remember is engaged to another woman. Being a curse-breaker clearly isn't all it's cracked up to be. Bill Weasley/OC

Vivian Blair is everything Sirius hates: an elitist Slytherin prefect. Pranking her is something he takes great pleasure in, but this time it will have unforeseen consequences. He should know better than to toy with fate, for the more love poems he writes, the less of a prank they become, and the more fate seems intent on getting some revenge of its own. Sirius Black/OC

The first time Gloss spends the night with Elara Winston, it's because he pities her. Acts of mercy have far-reaching consequences, but he isn't quite expecting that love will be one of them. Eight long years of secret meetings and hopeless pipedreams have a way of getting to you, but everything is about to come to a crashing end when the Mockingjay begins to rise. Gloss/OC

District 4 is an entirely new world, but with Finnick by her side, Sil is eager to make it her new home. A glimpse into Sil and Finnick's life as they begin to settle down. Sequel to The Sterling Nightingale. Finnick/OC

Finnick does love a good secret, but he doubts that Sil, the inane Victor from District 1, has any worth his time. But then they're forced into a fake relationship, and he discovers that it's all a mask. She is actually the Sterling Nightingale - the most elusive spy and rebel to grace Panem - and, well, that changes the game a bit. Scarlet Pimpernel inspired. Finnick/OC

Onmund is not an adventurer. He likes his research. He doesn't like traipsing through the wilderness or delving into dark ruins. He likes his magic and his studies. He doesn't enjoy campfire banter with the arrogant woman who is more legend than truth. At least, he doesn't think he does. Until, suddenly, he begins falling rather hard for one Dragonborn extraordinaire. Onmund/F!DB

Quintus likes his books. He does not like the idle gossip that his customers eagerly exchange. He likes his potions. He does not like bumbling warriors with no taste for subtleties. Yet somehow, he likes the wilderness in her eyes, the storm in her heart, the infuriating way she makes him stumble around his own confidence. It is a mystery, but then so is love. Quintus Navale/F!DB

A vignette series that features the Dragonborn's exploits in Solstheim, and how she happens to find love there. Rated M for later chapters. DB/Captain Veleth
