Summary
Miranda dies, and wakes up in the Afterlife, in her 33 year old body. Not satisfied with what she finds there, she tries to go back to the world, back to her life.
But there are rules: 1. She can’t go back to her old life completely, she has to hide from the world.
2. She’s only allowed to have the ‘chosen people’ for her in her life.
3. She has only one chance. When her time is up again, she’ll die the same age as she had died before.
Struggling to move on to Eternity; she returns to the earth. What she finds is a grieving ex-assistant; who once walked away from her in Paris, who left her feeling empty for years.
If this was eternity, she’d have to demand to speak to the manager.
If this is the afterlife she is promised, Miranda is absolutely going to try to Karen her way out of it. -
Those Who Seek Shall Find by BowNilver

Summary
“Beware Lady Rosabelle, little one, for she is cunning as a fox and observant as an owl, but just as cruel as a devil. She will read your tale like a novella and follow until the very end just to finish it like a short story.”
Many scholars had long searched for the secrets of immortality. Most had assumed what they were, but no sources were certain. Cato however, was determined to succeed where his peers had failed. Even if The Lady would smite him, he would pursue his search even through death... at least that's what he wanted to.

Summary
All clocks in the world spell out 00:00:00:00, and time is standing still.
Some are sure that the future is carved out, like the intricate plot of a novel whittled into the stone of rocks, mountains, and skyscrapers over thousands of years coming to a close with very little left to see or do.
Everything has a start and everything has an end, but in what form that end appears is unpredictable.
OR
Kim Dokja is dreaming and dying, he isn't sure which comes first. But he finds himself aboard a train full of souls on a journey to the afterlife and meets a familiar man with sad, sad eyes.

Summary
He leans back just enough to look at James’s eyes and blows a soft, cool breath across them. James’s eyelids flutter shut instinctively. When he opens them a second later, the world feels... sharper. Different. "Don't worry," Regulus says, his voice a dark velvet hum. "Your neck is still intact." His hand slides down, his palm coming to rest over James’s throat, his thumb brushing the pulse point.
"What... have you done to me?"
"I gave you a present." Regulus smiles, and for a second, he looks truly radiant. "Happy birthday, James. This year's present is going to be a very special one."
OR
At the Palais du Noir, dead spirits come to find the closure they were denied in their past life before heading off to the afterlife. After being given the ability to see ghosts, James Potter finds himself trapped as the human manager of a hotel that shouldn't exist.
Serving a bunch of ghosts is hard enough, but answering to Regulus Black, the hotel’s ethereal, biting, and impossibly elegant owner who's been there for centuries, is a challenge no business school could have prepared him for.

Critteriffic Days: A Smiling Critters "Reboot" by PVZBrony
Fandoms: Poppy Playtime (Video Game)
27 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
The year is 1996. It's been one year since the Hour of Joy. Playtime Co is struggling hard after the loss of their largest location. Hemorrhaging money, the company has one last shot to keep themselves afloat: relaunch one of their most beloved yet controversial toylines, the Smiling Critters, and a new cartoon created with the help of some fancy technology salvaged from the Michigan factory.
Very much copying Blue's Clues, the CRITTERIFFIC ADVENTURES series follows a live action host named Ben set in an animated world, as he plays, learns, and loves with the Smiling Critters. The world of the cartoon is alive, thanks to advanced artificial intelligence technology and neural imaging for two of the Critters. But it's not all sunshine and rainbows, as the dark forces in the original factory may very well be conspiring to take down Playtime Co for good...

Hazbin Hotel: Living in the Afterlife (Book 1) by CanaryStarFaire

27 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
Anastasia Winfield, a human girl, finds herself in Hell, full of chaos and demons. When she tries to find a way back home, she runs into the Hazbin Hotel and things sure do happen!
Author's Note: This fanfiction is like an alternate universe of my own, so not everything from characters to events (in order or not in order) in this fanfiction are canon to the OG show. I'm just having fun and writing how I wanna write the story lol. Plus, this fanfiction is still in development, and new chapters won't happen very often lol. In addition, some edits regarding the tags, rating, and archive warnings will happen once new chapters are added lol. Also, I'm kinda bad at writing lol (TwT).
Warning: The story may contain adult/mature themes (ex. language, violence, gore, nudity, sex, etc.) and/or the more "sensitive" themes (ex. abuse, drugs, phobias, etc.) as it goes along. Readers are allowed to continue reading, but with caution, and are given the choice to stop reading if they're not comfortable with such themes. I WILL put warnings on the beginning notes of chapters, even if unnecessary. Better to be safe than sorry.

Summary
For some, there is a chance for starting a new life after death, which can make for quite unexpected bedfellows. Or, the 13x1 fic no one really asked for but absolutely delights me to no end.
"Heero Yuy… How unexpected," Treize said. "I must confess, with the war on Earth ended, I had no expectation of seeing a familiar face. This is a world for the valiant dead, after all."
"You're overstating things. Only a small fraction of the population here are people who died somewhere else."
"True. But the path to reach this world from outside its borders seems quite definitive. Which makes me curious about what brought you here. Did Zechs' efforts fail in the end? Did peace collapse?"
There was a long pause. "Motorcycle accident," Heero finally said in a terse voice, and left it at that.
Written for Lemony Shenanigans 2026. Updates every odd-numbered day.

Summary
Similar to Built to Break-Alternate ending, this story will be the same up to a certain point, and then switch into an alternate version. Chapter 25 is where things will begin to shift from the original.
If you have read the original, I have gone back and added some author's notes at the end of the chapters with some thoughts and insights you might enjoy, instead of rereading the whole thing... though I find that rereading it sometimes hits different when you know the ending will change.
Spoiler alert: Ilya will die.
Double spoiler alert: There will be a happy ending and a reunion, because I am not a psychopath.Series

Summary
Before the Shadow Temple, there was only a place where the world did not release what it was given.
When the Sheikah first learned to guide the dead, something answered that should not have remained.
This is the origin of the temple, the lens, and the debt that was never meant to be carried.
