Summary
Detective Arthur Pendragon doesn’t believe in ghosts – until one starts following him home. A routine investigation at a druid burial site leaves him accidentally engaged to Merlin, a very annoyed, very dead activist with unfinished business. Now, Arthur has two choices: ignore the bond and ensuing bad luck, or get very comfortable being haunted by his sarcastic, spectral fiancé.
(Murder investigations. Unwanted soul bonds. Questionable supernatural bureaucracy. Arthur’s having a terrible few weeks and Merlin is loving it.)

Summary
Inspired by a horror lore I heard by chance. The backgroud of this fic is early 17th century, post the Anglo-Spanish War.
During a time of peace. Oscar Piastri receives a Privy Council appointment as a Special Agent to investigate the Ayrshire missing persons case. He travels with his close friend Charles, a folklorist from Genoa. Unfortunately, his wallet was stolen at the beginning of the journey. But because of this, he gets to know Lando Norris, a rich, lively young master, by chance...
I'm trying to write something new, so this will be a detective story with a horror atmosphere. (Not sure if I can pull it off 😅)

灵感来源于一个苏格兰传说。
请注意这只是个侦探故事，所以在史实上会比较放飞。时代背景：
17世纪初——英王詹姆斯一世（在苏格兰称詹六）时期，伊丽莎白女王的时代刚结束，基本与莎翁同时代！英西战争也结束了，汉萨同盟正在走下坡路，英国全境和平，在苏格兰北方偏远地区还有些天主教残余，大体已归正会。
在此时代背景下，被枢密院委任为特别调查使的奥斯卡.皮亚斯特里受命前往地处苏格兰西南部的艾尔郡，就这里频繁发生的神秘失踪事件展开调查。与他同行的还有他的好友，正在不列颠各地到处采风的民俗学家夏尔.勒克莱尔。
行程之初，皮亚就遭遇扒手钱包-1。正是这个意外，使他机缘巧合之下得以结识同样来自伦敦的商会少东兰多.诺里斯。
在杳无人烟的苏格兰荒原上，在宁静祥和的偏远小城中，在鸡犬相闻的庄园里，看似悠闲而美好的表面之下正在发生一些不可名状的事……本文中，81是有些nerd的设定，33依然非法开船(喂)，16是看着傻白甜，4是真傻白甜。
如果你在文里嗅到了《乱世遗春》的味道不要觉得奇怪，设定上会有一些作为彩蛋的跨时代reference。
这篇不会更很快，因为存在一定的不确定因素。如果再出现一次像荷兰爆缸那种晴天霹雳，我可能又要萎很久。
但我会尽力填完。鞠躬~Series

Summary
" "Hey... Uh, you've been calling me every now and then. I'm pretty sure this is the wrong number, I just didn't want to bother you about it. I... I've been letting you send those voicemails because y'know... I felt like it would do you some good. But the voicemails are taking up space in my phone, and I know this is awkward because you're just some random guy, but just wanted to let you know. Have a good day!"
He called this number, this exact number, religiously. Although it never was planned, he just called when things got to be too much; he just called when he needed to pretend things were okay. He had called, begging the universe to let him hear his voice, and he never did. So why? Why, after three years, did someone suddenly answer? "
This is an aged-up, quirkless AU! It begins when our battle-hardened detective, Katsuki Bakugou, mourns by calling his partner's phone as a way to cope every now and then. But one day someone answers, it's not his deceased partner, but some bubbly idiot who has, apparently, been receiving these hundreds of messages. The last thing Katsuki wanted was someone listening to him pour his heart out, to a stranger no less. Now the guy has the gall to get attached to him.

Summary
Loid Forger hasn’t worked in the Department of Wardens of the Invisible, Supernatural, and Ethereal for long but he can’t complain. His job has given him access to potions and spells he’d never have found dupes for in his local pharmacy, his partner is a Magical Information Specialist Warlock who is more accurate than any search engine, and he’s fostering a little pink-haired pixie who smiles at him like he’s not just some grumpy human who stumbled upon all of this. Life is good on the other side of the rift.
The only problem is…
Well, he’s met someone.
Yor Briar is sweet, loving, honest, and he’s almost certain that she’s an angel in disguise.
And if the constant bruising on his cheek, whenever he tries to even hold her hand, is any indication, he’s losing her. The question is why?
The answer comes in the form of a cryptic text message that can only mean one thing: she knows he’s lying about his job.
And so, he puts in his resignation. Because he cannot lose her.
And no one is going to convince him otherwise. Not Franky, not Fiona, not Sylvia. No one. Just one more job tracking down and capturing a skulk of reckless succubi—and then he’s done for good.

Summary
我一直都知道自己不是什么正常人，但是没有人能够把我从人群里面扔出去。先生，您一定觉得这有点像满口希望得抑郁症的文艺青年，叫嚣着绝望是对于空虚最有灵感的良药，以为有着这种自怨自怜就可以写出绝美的文章，好像苦难是什么值得赞颂的事情。就算我在这种自以为是的年纪，也不曾认为独树一帜是什么有趣的东西，尤其是你并不特殊，又装作是独一无二。好吧，不得不承认世界上最不缺少的就是‘小众’。人类总是追求大家没有的，反而【普通】成为一个需要女士尖叫惊呼‘天哪，你居然还停留在这种老爷爷时代’的代名词。

Bookmark Notes:
1/?
I make it look effortless. Smile. Tilt my head. Run my hand slow down my chest, like I’m savoring the touch. I’ve practiced that gesture so many times it’s muscle memory now, the illusion of want.
They think I love this.
And maybe a part of me does. The rush. The heat. The control that comes from knowing the room moves to your rhythm. But the truth? It’s not love. It’s survival.
Because I owe everything I am to King, the man upstairs with the ice in his eyes and the smile that could break glass. The one who owns the club, the rooms, the boys. The one who says he saved us.
And maybe he did.
