Summary
In 1974, the Rubik's Cube was invented by Hungarian sculptor, Ernő Rubik. The process of the Rubik's Cube was to rotate panels of colored squares to match every side of the cube in a different color. Rubik's Cubes could be cheated by peeling the stickers off and reapplying them to trick people into thinking the puzzle had been solved.
But what happens when the stickers peel off? Does the puzzle truly stay solved?
And what happens when the Rubik's Cube is not a puzzle, but the brain of a man known as Venom Snake?
And what if the stickers are memories and falsehoods that have peeled off, revealing the original form below?You take measures to start putting those stickers back on. Permanently this time.

Summary
During the Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961, CIA field officers Alex Mason, Frank Woods, Russell Adler, and Joseph Bowman were tasked with assassinating Castro as part of a team codenamed Operation 40. Instead, they found a body double and intelligence reports speaking of a mysterious Soviet operative trying to split off from the KGB. During their escape, Mason would sacrifice himself to ensure the others could get away, falling into the hands of rogue operatives reporting to the enigmatic man that would come to be known as 'Perseus'.
Two years later, he manages escape from the Vorkuta prison camp and return to the States, only to be plagued with near constant migraines, seizures, hallucinations, blackouts, and numbers he can't stop hearing.
As tensions rise in Vietnam and his life falls apart back home, Mason is assigned to a MACV-SOG team to track down Soviet operatives and suspected collaborators of Perseus aiding the Viet Cong. He and the CIA are working to prevent the Cold War from heating up, the KGB is hunting down loose ends, and Perseus is laying the groundwork for his plans. Unbeknownst to Mason, he's become Perseus' greatest weapon against his own country. And the key to saving it.

Summary
The final whistle had sounded and the team had been herded back into the changing rooms. By this point, he was skilled at keeping his staring subtle, so no one else noticed. Brick arrived at the bar late, and some of them jeered at him, assuming he’d stayed behind to take the wife on his arm to bed. From the way she disappeared not long after that, Skipper could tell it was something else. Quite a few drinks later and it was harder to keep his eyes off the taller man and the hands gripping tighter than necessary to the cue stick.

Earth: A Rendezvous with Destiny by WeretheDespeateMeasuresODST105
Fandoms: Star Wars Legends: The Old Republic (Video Game)

Summary
Happening in an alternate time
And with a galaxy not so far away...
The 1960s as a decade was just as memorable:
The Thirty-Fifth President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, was never assassinated, Gus Grissom was the first man to land on the moon, and Uncle Sam as well as his allies were victorious in Vietnam.
But not all was well on Planet Earth: The United Nations and the Congolese alike had retreated from the breakaway State of Katanga. France also endured a significant loss of face and the New Frontier agenda had imploded in the wake of civil unrest.
Despite the lack of public confidence, President Kennedy was gradually redeeming himself by engaging with the Galactic Republic yet diplomacy in time brought attention, including those with malicious aims.
Now with the intent of conquest by the Sith Empire disclosed, the nations of the world were dragged into a war, one which was not sought, and circumstantially became co-belligerents of the Republic for the inevitable confrontation with the 'SPACE NAZIS', in a collision course that became a rendezvous with destiny.

————
▶ The tale is woven upon a love that should never have existed.

But those eyes once gleamed in candlelight, that mouth once uttered mispronounced German—that was the proof that he and she had existed.*This is a fictional narrative set against the historical backdrop of Nazi Germany (Berlin, October 1944 – May 1, 1945), inspired in part by Der Untergang (Downfall, 2004).
*Character profiles: A Junker SD interrogator × A French-German Orphan Translator. The man is a true Nazi; the woman is morally ambiguous, with a 14-year age gap.Please be advised that this work is a character-driven story focusing on intimacy, collapse, and the emotional aftermath of totalitarianism.

【文案】
故事写在一种永不该存在的恋情之上。
战争、权力、语言、惩罚、注视、呼吸……他们活着，也在彼此身上慢慢死去。

*容克贵族SD审讯官 × 法德混血孤女翻译。男方真纳粹，女方道德模糊，年龄差14岁。
*有史料参考更有魔改，婉拒写作指导。
*反道德写作，不推荐青少年阅读。Please be advised that this work is a character-driven story focusing on intimacy, collapse, and the emotional aftermath of totalitarianism.

Summary
Amelia Barnes woke up in 2011. She knew that, but her brain couldn't stop bouncing. Couldn't stop thinking. Sometimes, she was there, sometimes she was back. Back to when she was fighting alongside her husband and her best friend, back to when she was leading the Howling Commandos after their deaths, or back to her time as an assassin during the early days of the Cold War.
But she had to put her head on straight when aliens invaded. The real issue was: could she?
Literary Style based on: "Ceremony" by Leslie Marmon Silko. It's a really good book, read it if you like this narrative style. I love it.
