Summary
Los Angeles, 1946. Acclaimed Hollywood actor Emmrich Volkarin has faced decades worth of hardships and scandals. He finds unexpected love when paired with Rook Ingellvar, a rising star, in his next feature film. Time will only tell how this budding romance will play out in Tinsletown…
-
There was a hidden chemistry between the pair that unlocked the instant the cameras rolled, as they exchanged lines so naturally they might as well have been doing it together from the outset. It was no wonder Varric was a staunch supporter. Rook matched his fervour, easily slotting herself into character, giving him something to work with, to play with. And their rapport didn’t vanish into the ether when Iron Bull yelled cut—the air was still charged, his hair standing tall while they dallied around each other, stealing glances that spoke of their brief moment shared in secrecy.

Summary
They were two sides of the same coin: the last Peverell and the last Heir of Slytherin. Two powerful orphans, alone against the world, with only each other to trust.
For fourteen years, Harry Peverell's life has been defined by one person: His best friend, Ivy Riddle.
But Harry is more than he seems. He is haunted by the ghost of another man's life - dark instincts, a hero's grief, and nightmares of a monster who wears his best friends face.
For Ivy, their bond is the one thing that keeps her from the abyss. For Harry, it may be the thing that pushes him into it. A story of Nature verses Nuture, where love forged in shared loneliness is pitted against Destiny.
Harry Potter/Female Tom Riddle
This fic will be fairly slow burn. It will get dark. And we'll get pretty weird with it, I have some cool ideas (I think) on time, reality, the nature of magic and the forces behind it, and on just whether a soul can avoid it's destiny.
Marked Mature, for now anyway.

Summary
The house on the cliffs above Dover remembers everything. A mother's song in the garden, a father's pride, a brother's quiet, crushing sorrow. Now, two ghosts haunt its dusty halls.
One is Marcus, the German pilot shot from the sky, a wounded phantom seeking refuge within its walls. He finds more than just shelter; he finds a name etched on a desk that connects his fate to hers in the most unforgivable way.
The other is Lina, the daughter of the house, sent home on leave to mourn a family shattered by combat and self-destruction. She seeks solace in the familiar rooms of her past, but the war has followed her home.
When the woman who made you a ghost and the man who haunts your home are trapped under the same roof, who is the prisoner, and who holds the key? In Hell's Fire Corner, the deadliest battle is the one fought in the silence between two enemies who have nothing left to lose.

Summary
When your eighteenth birthday marks you as property, survival means knowing your place.
In a world divided between Vampire and Werewolf rule, humans exist as cattle—their worth determined by a brand seared into their flesh. Jagdia bears the mark of Golden Blood, rare enough to be coveted, common enough to be consumed.
But Poland, 1939, changes everything.
As Hitler's forces sweep across the border—vampires who move in daylight, who call themselves the SS—anyone with the wrong blood type faces extermination. Churches become slaughterhouses. Neighbours become informants. And resistance becomes necessary.
Now Jagdia stalks the shadows of occupied Warsaw with holy water and homemade bombs, gambling her life against creatures who have forgotten how to die. Until a failed mission brings her face-to-face with a blue-eyed officer who tastes her blood and knows her scent.
Some hunts end before they begin.
Some predators never let their prey escape.

Summary
The cause of his abrupt memory loss was a strikingly featured youth sitting in the front row. This boy could not be more than twenty, and yet he met Charles’s gaze with a jarring audacity, breaking into a grin that displayed far more little teeth than any civilized grin ought to. His legs were very long, his pants were impertinently tight across his thighs, and a small notepad lay across his lap, dark with copious notes he had been jotting down while Charles had been reading aloud from Journey to a War.
[Now with a second chapter added!]

My first work ever! A collection of one-shots based off Resident Evil Inktober prompts I saw! I will update stuff as this goes on. I may not do a chapter every day, or finish this on time, but I sure as hell am not gonna abandon this. Lastly, I’m skipping some of the days since I didn’t have any ideas. I might make some up myself, no promises though!
