    Summary

    In front of him is an alleyway, one he's walked thousands of times, hundreds of thousands of times. Each life he takes, each cohabitation, the song and dance of firing neurons and synapses, the blinking, chemical lights of love, disgust, hunger, fear; he knows all of these like instinct, ingrained over centuries of lived lives. Then, one day, in the dumpster of a warehouse, the dissected corpse of a boy and the dying body of an unbelievable devil puts him in a situation that changes what it means to be alive.

    To exist is to want, and to want is to change...and he suddenly has a craving for toast and jam.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger has never belonged. She never had friends, never had anyone to connect to, and even her parents, well, there is much to be said about that. She had hoped that going to Hogwarts and meeting fellow people like her would change that fate she had lived, but alas, she is as much an outcast in Gryffindor as she was in the Muggle world. That changed on October 31st when Harry Black, the pureblooded heir to the House of Black, single-handedly saved her from a troll. It was the start of a wonderful friendship that even now, two months later, was still going strong.

    Even as Hermione goes deeper and deeper into the Old Ways, learning the truth of the world and magic as Harry and those around him see it, there is something constantly looming behind her, something she desperately tries to ignore. But that cannot last forever. The clock is ticking down towards the moment where that specter can no longer be ignored, cannot be outrun, where the moment of her destruction is at hand.

    May the Ancestors Who Are Just help her and guard her.

    Summary

    4:33 A.M.

    He looked away from the time, guilt growing as he wished he could sleep. Seriously, I know I embody anxiety, but this is just annoying. He sighed.

    Thumbing the off button, he sat up in his bed. His room was a mess of spooky, kooky, and all around ooky. The Halloween decorations were still up from last year, paired with random dark and purple clothes around any and every spare surface. Fake cobwebs and spiders riddled the corners of his room.

    Summary

    "Everyone hates me. They all think I'm some sort of monster. Please, god, I don't want to be what they say I am."

    River Reid Moriko is tired of living. Sure, living with her adoptive goddess mother is a step-up from what it was like two years ago, but the feeling of not belonging has never softened, not in her twenty years of living. She'd just like to sleep her days away, but the ties of fate have a way of mucking everything up for her as forces of darkness wreak havoc anew on the world. Can she rise up to the challenge--and find her way home?

    This is my life project, and something I have been working on for years now--a coming of age fantasy story.

    Summary

    Nursed on faerie-tales and love stories, Taryn has believed all her life that if she gets the ring, she secures a happy life. Marry the man, kiss the frog, and you will be happy.

    In which the author writes Taryn's point of view to save her from the fandom- Taryn, as an heartbroken teenage girl, with trauma

    Summary

    “I-I brought you something,” the guy carries on shyly, one hand rooting around in his pocket. “It should be like this, because you gave me my coat back.”

    “Oh,” Charles frowns, taken aback. “It was only polite, you don’t need- holy fuck, is that a ring?”

     

    How much do you really know about belonging and magical creatures? More than Charles, hopefully.
