In the Hands of her Flame by simpletea23
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
21 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
Darkness swallowed her as icy water choked the world above. The Cauldron’s presence coiled around her, whispering hunger, its claws raking through her skin and mind, searching, changing her.
Its talons found three golden threads tethering her to something vital—one by one, it severed them. Agony consumed her, hollowing her out. But even as it unraveled her, she fought back.
She would not surrender.
—
Torn from her mortal life and forced into an immortal body she never wanted, Nesta must navigate the terrifying new world of the Fae. Haunted by what was taken from her, and what she has become, she battles the weight of grief, rage, and a past that refuses to release its hold. But even as she fights against the power now thrumming in her veins, the world demands more from her: to find her place, to forge new bonds, and perhaps, to open her guarded heart to a love she never expected.
A reimagining of A Court of Thorns and Roses from Nesta’s perspective, with many many liberties taken.

Summary
Isabel is your average teenager with deep-rooted anxiety, a bad habit of overthinking every single social interaction and, most importantly, still looking for a place to belong. So, when she somehow ends up in the world of her favorite show, what comes next seems quite obvious: she's going to join Fairy Tail, finally settle down in a place to call home, and ultimately establish the bonds she's always yearned for.
Or at least, that's the goal - she somehow doubts it'll be as easy as it sounds.
“Then I guess we’re not so different after all.”
“What?”
“You want a legacy of might, while I want a legacy of love.” A wry smile graced her lips. “In the end, we both just want people to remember us once we’re gone.”
OR
Angsty teenager with a bad overthinking habit and mild social anxiety seeks out the one Guild reputed for its warmth and family-like bonds - and yeah, it goes about as well as you can expect.

My Tears Are Salty, But Your Blood Is Sweet by Imi_Smoked
Fandoms: The Black Phone (2022)
21 Oct 2025

Summary
When he reached the box, his hands were claw-like, harsh in the way they grabbed the phone and yanked the receiver towards him. He pushed it into the shell of his ear, ignoring the blooming pain from his harsh movements.
At first he was silent. Wary.
Then, he spoke in a hushed breath, his voice gruff and disused.
“Hello?” — he tapped a finger against the receiver, “is anyone there?”
There was a static, long and taut, and dread filled Finn like candle wax burning and dripping onto the dish that held it. A chill ran down his spine, but his entire world stopped when the voice spoke.
“Get to the basement,”
A moment passed. Another, and then Finn’s mind could not keep up with his lurching body.
He was tumbling, spinning mindlessly until he fell to the floor, and the phone plummeted from his hand, hanging itself up, but a singular, distinct thought gripped his mind, unable to let go:
Robin.
Or, Finney and Robin are blasted to another universe where no one had been kidnapped yet. However, Robin can’t seem to remember anything, and The Grabber is close on their trail.

Summary
Sigrid the Stormwing is the last remaining Ancient Dragon.
After saying farewell to the last living soul he had known, Sigrid had been alone for far too long. In a fleeting attempt to soothe his loneliness, he chose to take human form. He found a small boat and let the waves carry him wherever they willed, until eventually they brought him to the shore of a distant island—Berk.
At the time, Sigrid had only planned to stay there for a short while. He didn’t yet know that those plans would never come to pass.
This story begins 30 years before the HTTYD 1! I enjoy stories with a middle-aged man as the main character :)

Summary
DISCLAIMER: I support the characters and the community that was built around them, NOT JKR and her vile and disgusting views.
This is my first Marauders fic, and as of right now, I have no clue how long it is going to be.
I just hope that you enjoy the ride.
This story follows the story of the Marauders and of Dorothy Lambeth, my original character.I'm hoping to keep the angst flowing and hearts beating as you get to know all the characters and follow them on their journey through their time at Hogwarts.
Hopefully, there will be something for everyone in this.(tags and relationships will be added as the story progresses, but I intend to have WolfStar at the heart of it)

Soda and the Soc by Cetigapolo
Fandoms: The Outsiders - S. E. Hinton, The Outsiders (1983), The Outsiders: The Musical - Jamestown Revival & Levine/Rapp
21 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
Titled for Soda because story was not preplanned, but entire (surviving) gang is featured at different points in the story. Focus is on friendships, trauma healing, (found) family, and (for some of them at least) romance. Canon-complaint. Adult themes are present including abuse, assault, mental health/suicide, references to sexuality.
Prompts welcome and the following chapters can be read in isolation if you're looking for one-shots that are hurt/comfort with the brothers: 11, 17, 59, 107, 124, 145. Several other chapters not listed could also be read as stand-alones but do contain OCs.
FYI that I post rough drafts and then rewrite as story progresses.
