    Summary

    The war is over yet, the wreckage and the wrecked are still standing. Peter looks for the officer he hurt in the Scorpion fight, then for the one man in New York who understands what it means to break people you never meant to touch. Jean, as Jeannie Gray, sits across from the strangers she once turned into weapons and helps them find their way back. Atonement is not a costume you take off at night. Six chapters of the found family paying down a debt that can never quite be balanced, and learning that you do not have to pay it alone.

    Summary

    This story is a dark reimagining of my original novel, High School Life, adapted into the Tomorrow X Together universe. While the core narrative beats remain, the stakes have been sharpened for a colder, more treacherous environment.

    Daniella Eve has always been the "It Girl," the inseparable best friend to Bella Piper. In the pressure cooker of their elite high school, they believed they were untouchable—until discovering that even the deepest loyalties are susceptible to the right kind of poison.

    Six months after everything imploded, the wreckage remains. The catalyst? Steve Adam —the school’s calculating, ruthless Student Council President and Bella’s ex-boyfriend. A notorious heartbreaker with a penchant for hunting his exes' friends, Steve never intended to target Daniella. Yet, here they are: caught in a magnetic, illicit pull that shattered what little remained of her bond with Bella. 

    Trapped in a claustrophobic love triangle, the three of them are forced to navigate the chaos of their final year. As the line between ambition and betrayal blurs, Daniella must face a devastating truth: Is her connection with Steve worth the bridges they’ve burned, or was it always destined to fall apart?

    Summary

    Bobby Fischer was always certain he would become someone great, and he intended to achieve this through chess.
    But who is Bobby Fischer away from the board? He doesn't really know, and he feels even more confused about himself when he finds himself strongly drawn to two young men he saw in a magazine, Misha and Borya.

    Summary

    The World Chess Championship. Reykjavík, 1972.

    With the World Chess Championship entering its next phase, Shane Hollander should be focused on taking the title from Ilya Rozanov.

    Instead, the two men are carrying on a secret affair under the eyes of the press, their delegations, and a growing number of people who have started to notice just how much time they spend watching one another when there is no chessboard between them.

    For Shane, being caught with the Soviet champion could end his career and leave him branded a traitor. For Ilya, the consequences are less certain and far more frightening. As suspicion grows and the match begins to run out of games, they are forced to decide how much they are willing to risk for something neither of them expected to find in Reykjavík.

    There are many ways to lose a match. In Reykjavík, there are far more ways to lose each other.

    Summary

    Spencer and Aaron are brothers, but for a change, William Reid is actually a decent person. Aaron has just joined the BAU and his brother is super proud of him! Spencer is still a genius, but also a literal menace because he is actually loved.
    The working title for this was: 'Hotch and Spencer are brothers and William isn't evil' so I feel like while the title I went for wasn't great, it absolutely could have been worse!

    Summary

    You think you know it; do you also know ledge?

    Hosts of an imaginary city of scholars, students, artists, and architects where time stops, the board of trustees invited a twenty-something chess grandmaster to head the new institute of political history. He is human.

    Son of rockstar Professor Zoran Miroslav, Igor was tasked with the impossible task of compiling a public history of Civitas. Recently retired from professional chess, Igor passionately fell in love with a lesbian historian who was nice enough to say he is a flaming idiot.

    Norman was an act pretty, do nothing at the coffeeshop kind of boy, a literature student in Civitas, when he is short of money he sells himself. Short of florins, he thinks of the brilliant idea of suing the two Gabriels for fraud, he read some journal articles from both, and distinguished the slight mismatch of styles.

    Can baby doll make some money and make a name for himself suing both members of the board of the city? The city has its own agencies and agendas.

    A lost and drunk young man social climbing in a late capitalist steampunk city, and a deliberate pretty boy navigating art and art works.

    Summary

    Audio Length: 01:34:00

    Jean has spent the last seven years of his life in the Nest as Riko's plaything. He’s come to terms with it in a way he wishes his younger self had understood before all the pain and scars. He is owned property. His parents had the right to sell him. The master had the right to beat him. Riko had the right to…everything.

    But Riko is dead. Publicly, it was a car accident, but Jean knows Riko had been on thin ice with his family for months, devolving into more and more public and chaotic violence. Still, neither he nor Jean had thought Ichirou would pull the trigger until he did exactly that. Newly without an owner, Jean is being shunted off as a gift to yet another man so far above his station that Jean feels the impression of hands on him already.

    He’s only heard of the Wesninski family in passing as an increasingly important tool in the Moriyama’s repertoire, but he hadn’t thought much about the fact that Nathan had an heir just a few months older than Jean, and he certainly hadn’t known that heir was skyrocketing into Ichirou’s favor. Regardless, he’s sure he’ll get to know Nathaniel very well after being handed over to him, gift-wrapped in all but the most literal sense.

    Summary

    1957. Lawrence, Kansas.

    Castiel Novak is the new transfer student with a telescope, a chessboard mind, and a habit of never staying long enough to get attached.

    Dean Winchester is the popular garage boy with a fast car, a leather jacket, and more secrets than his smile lets on.

    They should have stayed in each other’s orbit from a safe distance.

    Then, against every rule they know, they fall in love.

    A Grease-inspired 1950s Destiel high-school AU about first love, secret romance, fast cars, astronomy, chessboards, radios, stars, long-distance promises, and growing up enough to choose each other.

    Content note: This fic follows Dean and Castiel from their teen years into adulthood. Their high-school relationship includes kissing, closeted romance, and period-typical social pressure, but explicit sexual content only appears after the time skip, when both characters are adults.

    Summary

    As his eyes wandered out the second-floor window that looked out onto the green, they caught on a group of boys roughhousing and laughing under the largest sycamore tree. They were being loud enough that Shane could nearly make out what they were squawking about, but mostly he picked up on a voice with a different cadence than the rest. He couldn’t quite place the accent, but his eyes searched for the boy it belonged to. He wasn’t hard to spot, one of the tallest in their crew with his sun-kissed sinewy limbs and golden curls that caught the sunlight. Shane watched as the fabric of his t-shirt bunched and strained against his broad shoulders, how he jumped quickly away from his pinned opponent and threw his head back in laughter, and Shane imagined he could see his Adam’s apple bobbing and he wondered what it would feel like under his fingers…

    Summary

    AU where the RTTE characters (with a few exceptions eg. Stoick and others who are a generation apart, like Gobber, Gothi and other adult Berkians) are at the same secondary school. Set in a modern world; after Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third’s long-ago reign over the Wilderwest, dragons are in hiding and are generally believed to be extinct or mythical. When a wealthy businessman starts threatening the school, the teens must find out what it is that he wants...

    ...before he ends the world.

    Set in the Archipelago of the books, but all environmental details including ecology, where not direct references to either the books or film franchise, are inspired by nonspecific parts of the UK. The school system is like that of the UK overall, so for the benefit of non-UK readers, Year 12 (or lower sixth form) is when you're 16-17 and Year 13 (upper sixth form) is when you're 17-18. These are the two "years" of education after compulsory education finishes but before university starts; the alternatives to sixth form include college (different to university) or doing an apprenticeship, since while none are compulsory, it is mandatory to be in education or employment until you're 18.

    25 chapters and counting!

    Summary

    For (y/n) (l/n), England was supposed to be a vacation from hunting monsters. Yes, it was supposed to be a business trip to take care of her family distillery, but with the lack of monsters, it was less stressful. Sadly, the universe apparently had different plans for her. While in England for business, she gets dragged into investigating the Love family's bizarre "family curse," in which their children keep disappearing through their bedroom windows and returning with stories about Neverland since their ancestor, Wendy Darling, was a young girl. Naturally, Y/N calls Sam and Dean because why deal with magical nonsense alone?

    Meanwhile, they aren't the only ones looking for answers for (y/n) finds Captain James Hook. He's charming, educated, dangerous, completely out of time, and—most importantly—not trustworthy.
    Hook claims to know what is happening to the Love children and insists that Peter Pan is responsible. Y/N isn't convinced and unsure of how Hook got there- he only gives half answers. Their conversations become a constant battle of questions, sarcasm, half-truths, and carefully hidden motives. Unfortunately, they seem to enjoy the game far more than either of them would like to admit.
