    Summary

    He may be a beautiful young man… or a black serpent lurking in the dark waters of the lake. One day, he appears before a local feudal lord to ask for the hand of his only daughter. But her father does not trust the stranger and proposes a game — a trial meant to reveal his true nature to the girl.

    An adult retelling of the Japanese folktale Kurohime and the Black Dragon...but I made it SasuSaku.

    Summary

    After the Battle of Hogwarts, the wizarding world craved nothing more than to move on from the horrors of war. However, the universe had darker plans: a plague was coming. A new strain of vampirism spread like wildfire, forcing society into a desperate lockdown.

    Three years after the first infection was recorded, Hermione tries to rebuild a sense of normalcy. But her life is upended when Draco Malfoy is caught attempting to flee the country while under house arrest. To avoid a return to Azkaban, he strikes a desperate bargain with the Ministry.
    Hermione Granger—now the wizarding world's leading Dark Artifact specialist—is dispatched to Malfoy Manor to catalog its dangerous contents. She expected to face cursed relics and a bitter rival; she did not expect her new housemate to be hiding a dark secret more dangerous than any object in the manor.

    Summary

    Makoto Niijima was top of her class and student council president at prestigious Shujin Academy. Her future was lined up perfectly. But in her senior year all of that came crashing down. A student tried to commit suicide, a teacher confessed to causing it, and the school was complicit in covering it up. Now the principal has tasked her with finding the truth about the group behind the teacher’s change of heart—the mysterious Phantom Thieves. Makoto wants to do the right thing, but she doesn't know what that is anymore. What she does suspect is that the newest transfer student at Shujin—a delinquent with a criminal record, trouble maker, a guy pretending to be a girl—seems to be at the center of it all. The more Makoto learns about them, the more fascinated she becomes. Their name?

    Ren Amamiya.

    Summary

    Freshly arrived in 1999, the Drifter is drawn into the world of the Hex; a group bound by shared trauma, survival, and a timeline gone wrong. Follow the uneasy alliances growing into friendship as missions, late nights, and shared scars turn the Hex into something like family.

    Chapters will release on Mondays and Fridays so I can have some consistency, and I'm mad that I have to state this but no AI was used in the writing of this work. I just have a lot of thoughts and busy hands lol.

    --

    I am actively going back and editing chapters now that my writing has improved :), chapters that have been rewritten will have a note at the bottom.

    Summary

    The ground opens.

    This is the only way to describe it: the earth parts and below is not darkness. It's something else, something that has its own light that is not sunlight nor firelight, something that exists by its own rules in its own atmosphere.

    The last thing Gihun sees before the ground closes above him is the sky.

    Autumn blue. The color of the reflection in the pond, the specific blue that exceeds its source.

    He thinks of Gayeong, at the water's edge, reading her book.

    She's going to be so angry.

    Summary

    Nobody would ever learn that eight travelers, brought together by fate, would find themselves on a journey that would change their lives forever.

    This story is a rewrite of the events of the first game, added with facts and some characters of Champions of the Continent/ Octopath 0 so also kind of spoiler for that one!

    Summary

    This started as something simple. A gift for my wonderful life partner. And then it became a full-blown project. A retelling of a wonderful story with twists and turns and parallels. Love and heartache, beauty and hatred. This is a retelling of the Clone Wars, a wonderful brainchild from the mind of Dave Filoni. I am in no way claiming a lot of this as my own, but I do add my own characters and thoughts. Read at your own risk! Enjoy at your own leisure!

    Summary

    "The rest of his trip to the hospital was fractured into half-remembered blurs. A woman told him to try to move his toes; either he didn’t catch her reaction or she didn’t give one. The sirens of the ambulance swooped over him in undulating waves of pain; too-bright lights and too-loud noises weren’t unfamiliar territory, but this was something amplified. He felt like an ant under a magnifying glass, frying. Every medic he passed through the hands of told him to keep his eyes open. He was so tired. He just wanted to rest.

    Eventually, finally, they let him. The world faded to black, blissful. He still couldn’t remember what he had been planning to ask Ilya."

    Or, the timeline where Marlow's check on Shane is a career ending injury, and both Shane and Ilya have to grapple with the effects.

    Summary

    Playtime Co. used to be the gold standard when it came to what a toy company should be. Every product was a hit, every side venture went somewhere, and it had a positive name in every home.

    Fast forward to 1995 and there’s seemingly a new lawsuit every week, their stock prices have plummeted, they’re getting beaten out by rival toy companies, and the media is theorizing about them.

    Open on a teenage boy who’s just working on the factory floor just to get through High School. Until one day he takes a sick day, and the next thing he knows there are army vehicles outside Playtime Co. the next day.

    Fast forward ten years and he gets a mysterious letter telling him to come back to the factory, but only one thing is on his mind when he gets said letter…”I never got my last paycheck!”

    (Loosely Based on “What if You Talked in Poppy Playtime?” by Press Start to Laugh)

    Summary

    After waking up in the Vault, the Sole Survivor discovers that he can finally see a Shadow.
    Can he keep them alive and whole?
    Can he keep himself sane in this new world?
    Can he find his son?

    Nora would've been able to handle this much better than he could...

    -

    Everything is so fucked. Holy shit. Jesus fucking christ!

    He stood, bracing himself with his hands on his knees as he looked out over Concord and the stretch of destruction beyond it. He couldn't stop the tears flowing down his face. He was so cold. Deep deep in his bones, like the ice he'd been sat on hadn't quite left his blood yet.

    Two hundred years. Oh, God, Nora, what do I do? Where do I go!?

    He was screaming in his head. He couldn't get his throat to work or his legs to move. Was he screaming out loud? He didn't know. He could only stare out at what used to be his home and hear the roar in his head. He'd lost his best friend, his son, his life. Everyone he'd ever known was dead.
    Nothing had ever prepared him for this. Nothing.

    Summary

    Pinocchio is not in *the LEAST* a PROPER prince- at least, according to most people in the kingdom of Linderwall including his king father Petruchio and queen mother Petronilla. And despite what they think, being forced to marry a pretty blonde-haired blue-eyed princess *will NOT* CURE him of any supposed 'defect in the blood' or 'kink in the soul'!! So, of course, three nights before the wedding, he LEAVES after taking some hopefully-sage advice from a talking cricket... and just so happens to run into a packflockpride of *DAEMONS* along the way, which ends up with him being a daemon's 'princess' same as Prince Anthony | Angel Dust and Princess Molly.

    And his new 'master'?? -Isn't all that bad. There's something- *sweet* and KIND about 'Husk(er)' despite his gruffness and inclination to (Alcoholic) Drink; and Anthony is DEFINITELY more engaging and funny and comely inside and out than Princess Twinkle...!

    Only problem is??? *Anthony's own Daemon master VALENTINO* and *WIZARDS* (well, *one* wizard; the other isn't really Awful)...

    Summary

    Laurent had come to Marlas a bright and innocent youth caught up in his brother's excitement, in the romance of battle and the righteousness of their cause. He left the battlefield alone, a stranger to himself, ready to be reshaped into a creature of someone else's design. Time and trauma cut him farther from himself, from the ability to do anything but play the losing game he found himself caught up in.
