    Summary

    Greg hits a stranger with his van late into the night. Said stranger is perfectly content to disappear and not make a big deal of the whole situation, but Greg presses the matter and gets the guy to "rest up" to recover from the accident.
    Things get weird from there.

    Summary

    A psychopathic killer blends in to society by wearing a mask of normalcy. He has nothing but the joy of killing and he feels nothing for other animals outside of a lust for blood. However, when confronted with the question of whether or not he was lonely, he takes it upon himself to do an experiment. Could he do what his mother couldn’t? Could he have a normal family?

    Aka the one where Melon kidnaps baby Legosi and raises him as his own out of nothing but curiosity and the desire for control.

    Summary

    “You have these lines you won’t cross. But then you cross them. And suddenly you possess the very dangerous information that you can break the rule and the world won’t immediately come to an end. You’ve taken a big, black, bold line and you’ve made it a little bit gray. And now every time you cross it again, it just gets grayer and grayer until one day you look around and you think, There was a line here once.” — Taylor Jenkins Reid, Daisy Jones and The Six

    Or…

    “My father died for the people he loved,” Neji says, voice heavy with past and present grief yet still steady and sure, fully aware of the implications he’s implying when he asks, “You think I won’t?”

    The silence is so deafening that when Shikamaru tries to swallow past the lump in his throat, Hiashi notices, fixes him with a split-second look that has his life flashing before his eyes. There is no time to strategize on how to escape this mess, and no words to explain how they had found themselves in it to start with. Every muscle in his body feels painfully taut, instinctual self-preservation urging him away from the barrel Neji is staring down. This is not a battle. This is a war.
