Summary
Lights, camera, action.
Laughter, jokes, praise, and applause. This is what James Potter sees and hears every Saturday, from 7:30 to 9:00. People come from far and wide to hear his material, see his grin, and enjoy his show.
But what hides behind all the glitz and glamour of a great comedian's life?
What happens when a joke doesn't land, when the delivery is off?
What happens when the greatest comedian of the current decade can't seem to write new material, and stops laughing at his own jokes?
And worst of all, what happens when said comedian turns thirty?BY THE WAY: I DO NOT SUPPORT JKR IN ANY WAY OR MANNER!!11!!!! TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS!!!!!!!!!

Bittersweet Symphony by ChildlikeGoblinQueen (RiotGrrrlWitch) for Cim0rene
Fandoms: The Owl House (Cartoon)

Summary
Hunter Wittebane is a top student at NYU Stern Business school in the 90s — academically that is. Unfortunately, past trauma and social anxiety has kept him from succeeding in a way that his uncle — a mogul in the Christian Music Industry— finds acceptable.
Willow Park is also a senior undergrad (also at NYU) who manages the flower booth at her fathers’ four bodegas (Parks on the Park). As graduation approaches she has hoped to get accepted into a competitive Masters for Environmental Science -- during the day that is.
At night she’s the singer/bassist for the underground punk band The Emeralds.
When Hunter messes up the last of many disastrous interviews for a summer internship, he stumbles into The Owl House, a famous East Village rock club, rained on and desperate to find a payphone.
What he discovers is the key to his past, present and future.
And maybe even a chance at love.
Updates Weekly. (I hope)

Summary
"Mine dances as well," Damian replied. "Reluctant at first, but now he sometimes extends the invitation himself. Particularly after stressful days."
"He's learned the pleasure of taking control, then."
"Actually, quite the opposite." Pride colored Damian's voice. "He's discovered the pleasure of complete surrender. The beauty of letting go entirely, of simply... feeling."
Elena set down her glass with deliberate precision. "That represents the deepest trust. The most beautiful form of love."
"Yes. And the most beautiful form of submission."
[From Overture: "Fifty-Two"]

Summary
Marvin loved the life he had—quiet. He loved not having to worry about anything beyond himself and a few close friends. No drama, no surprises.
He’d always believed success was a matter of control:if he didn’t have it, everything could collapse. And if something collapsed, it was because he hadn’t done enough. Because he’d been weak. Because he’d failed.
Losing control wasn’t just a mistake—it was the beginning of the end.
And yet, everything had fallen apart.
All thanks to Whizzer Brown.my attempt at a gay romcom, please read it. 👋

Summary
The sequel to ‘To Catch a Tiger.’
Alas, second chances and happy endings do not come with guarantees. And the dissolution of Donna Maria’s happy ending, her second chance at the love she strove so earnestly for, has left her open to an untoward but not unfamiliar influence.
Taking on a new role, one with more power, more status than she ever previously dreamed of, her life becomes at once open sky and a cage. Faith evaporated in those people and things that had been her harbor, she must sink or swim in a tide of cynical, dangerous ambition and her own compromising secrets.
Behind it all, a lost evil that refuses to stay lost. Increased might notwithstanding, is Donna Maria no longer heroine enough to end as anything more than its pawn?
:: A canon-divergent tale of intrigue, power and lust, set in the year 1980, the Marvel Bronze Age, with some DC overtones as well.

When Ross stumbles into Monica’s apartment on a rainy July night in 2025, the sight of Monica and Rachel sharing a tender moment shatters his world. Caught between shock, jealousy, and guilt, Ross grapples with his place in their lives, haunted by memories of childhood forts with Monica and unrequited love for Rachel. As Monica wrestles with her perfectionist need to keep everyone close and Rachel faces the ghosts of her past with Ross, the trio navigates a delicate dance of hurt and healing. With Phoebe’s quirky wisdom, Chandler’s awkward quips, and Joey’s oblivious pizza obsession, the Friends gang rallies to rebuild their bond. From a memory jar filled with laughter to a trilobite exhibit under musty museum lights, they discover that love—romantic, familial, or friendly—can evolve without breaking. Packed with Friends-style banter, spilled sauce, and a “pivot” joke or two, this story explores how old friendships adapt to new truths, proving some bonds are as tough as a fossil that’s survived eons.
