Summary
She had always hated her family, and she still did. She always played exactly into what they wanted her to be and Rhea Thorn wanted nothing to do with that legacy. She already played into the Slytherin stereotype, and being part of a long line of prodigies isn’t helping her get past the 'Death Eater' allegations.
She keeps asking herself how far she is willing to go to save herself, or the world, but she never seems able to answer.
She keeps balancing on a line she’s not sure applies anymore.

Summary
The Abernants had three daughters, Aelwyn, Aderei and Adaine, before being exiled to Solace. In time the parents had turned bitter, although, perhaps they had always been so.
It didn't matter to Aderei, who tried her best to disappoint her parents enough for them to give up on her. They never did, despite her deliberate failures.
She couldn't help but follow along on her sister's adventures, hoping it would be enough for them to leave her alone.
When trouble arises and an old friend recruits her, she gets more involved than she thought she would, losing her sense along the way.

Summary
After being caught kissing a woman at a party, Gwendolyn Bouchard is cast out of the comfortable and lavish life she has always known. Terrified and disoriented, she's soon found by Alice Dyer, who makes her an offer: a roof over her head, food to eat, and a livable wage as a performer in the mysterious Cirque De Effroi. Gwen reluctantly accepts, but the circus, as any circus does, has its secrets - and what starts as a reach for a scrap of her former status turns into an unravelling of these secrets, strand by terror-woven strand. Between trapeze lessons, learning to embrace the part of herself that cost her a life of luxury, and, though she'd loathe to admit it, falling in love, Gwen suddenly finds herself with far more on her plate than she ever bargained for.
The circus is in town, traveller. Why don't you stop by?

Summary
In 1797, Captain Elias Bouchard set sail from London in command of three ships, promising to return with incalculable riches for crown and country. A year later, the ships have vanished. The islands of the Magnus Archipelago have swallowed all traces of survivors and riches alike.
Gwendolyn Bouchard is the last person who should be sent on the rescue mission to find her uncle's lost ships. Unfortunately for everyone, she has a medical degree and a family keen to put an ocean between her and them. Gwen gets assigned to Lena Kelley's ship as they set out on Captain Bouchard's trail, and Gwen finds herself almost as unprepared to live alongside common sailors as she is to deal with the supernatural dangers that await them.
The islands are awake. The islands are hungry. And they're not very sensitive to the fact that Gwen is kind of falling in love with her most irritating shipmate.

Summary
Gwen's assignment is simple enough: track down Grace "Ink5oul" Wilde and convince them to join the Office of Incident Assessment and Response as an External. She plans to do only that, to show Lena that she's ready for the job and for more. Instead, when she finds Ink5oul in a dirty warehouse tattooing a corpse, she listens. And the more Ink5oul talks and the more Gwen learns about what their tattoos can do to - or for - people, the less she wants to share them with the OIAR.
Or, a story about Gwen actually doing whatever it takes to grab the power she craves.

Summary
WARNING FOR EMETOPHOBIA AND FOR SPOILERS FOR TMAGP S1&2
“No, no, the-” police can't help, she almost says, but she can sense that Alice will take that to mean she needs convincing. She sucks in another shaky breath. “It isn't a police matter.”
“Riiight.” Alice nods, disbelieving, but doesn't push her luck. Gwen actually misses the comforting warmth of her palm when she pulls it away to watch as she sniffles and sobs and dabs at her sick-stained black blouse. Alice says nothing for a moment, then clicks her tongue. “Here, you're only making that worse.”
As Gwen looks up to snap something about not sitting in sick all night, she's met with the sight of Alice pulling her navy blue jumper off, discarding it in her lap while she pulls off the black spaghetti strap vest she has underneath, leaving a star patterned bra and Gwen speechless.
The aftermath of Bonzo if Alice had been there to comfort Gwen and not off in a soggy, manky hole in Manchester.
