Summary
At last Jonathan was face to face with the man he had come for: Eduardo Dos Santos. Teddy. The first thing Jonathan noticed when he approached was the gold brims of his sunglasses, how the shade nicely complimented his skin. Then his styled black hair and the shadow of a beard on the lower half of his tanned, sculpted face. A poised mouth, smiling down at Jonathan, close-lipped.

Summary
It was strange, because despite the subtle scowl that remained plastered on the girl's face, she was admittedly very pretty, in a dark and twisted sort of way. Her high cheekbones and full lips with a defined cupid’s bow made her noticeably attractive, and with addition of her black, gimlet eyes, she was undeniably beautiful.

Summary
Nam-gyu resists the urge to tell him to hurry up. The cold is unrelenting, the type that makes him want to crawl out of his own skin. The lack of clothes certainly doesn’t help with that, and while Nam-gyu can still hear the way Thanos shuffles around, there’s a primal fear within him that he’ll be left behind, tied up and defenseless.

[The games end. The odd sense of partnership that’s unfolded between Thanos and Nam-gyu does not.]

Summary
"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope."
(From 'The Rainbow', D.H. Lawrence)This is a story about coming into one's own, a meditation on the twilight of girlhood and the violence of crash-landing into womanhood. Follow Hermione as she navigates through the quagmire: Saving the world, getting top grades, falling in love, lust, and a whole lot of trouble, and comes out of it hopefully (at least) partially sane.

Summary
Wednesday’s eye was beginning to twitch. She glared down at the letter on the desk in front of her, still vaguely accordioned from its postal transit. The dark haired woman didn’t even know where to start; her publishing house could, regrettably, make any manner of demands of her during the process, but to require that she engage with the vapid, brain-rotting void that was social media was a step too far. Much to Wednesday’s horror, it appeared she didn’t have much of a choice.
OR
Adult Wednesday is contractually obligated to participate in the marketing of her book, to her dismay. Luckily she is married to a werewolf with a communications degree and side-hustle in social media.
