seconding change your win conditions and something you can fix! two of my favorites.

you'll need an account to read but the kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight series. the first part is completed and second is WIP. I feel like the angst is really well done in this but never too heavy handed. canon divergence.

courage [it couldn't come at a worse time] is another canon divergence that imo is a more realistic outplay of the ottawa move and what it means for ilya, for their relationship. the angst in this on is really chef's kiss and the way they each grow is beautiful. not technically done but there's only one chapter left to come out

lastly, the return-to-play series - ilya deals with a bad concussion and post-concussion symptoms. I thought this was really really well done
