The Queen of Dust and Glitter by grammanazi
Fandoms: DC Universe Online, Harley Quinn (Cartoon 2019)
10 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
Darkseid gave Harley Quinn her own planet. It went about as well as you’d expect — meaning the tiny inhabitants now have trauma, Harley has a crown made of delusion, and Poison Ivy is once again both the voice of reason and the temptation to keep burning everything down.
A cosmic breakup comedy about love, loneliness, and what happens when a clown with abandonment issues gets the power of a god. There’s laughter, mass existentialism, and possibly a moral lesson — but don’t count on it.

Summary
Depression works in mysterious ways. Sometimes it's crying, screaming, mourning, fighting, rotting—Sometimes it's acceptance that you're never going to get out of the hell hole you dug yourself into.
Kyoei Joy falls into the latter category.

what am I supposed to do, with this?! by Anonymous

Summary
It was the beeping that I remember noticing first.
The slow, rhythmic sound slowly became clearer as the steady tempo moved on; each sound slowly coaxing me out of a deep sleep.
With a deep breath I noticed the smell of antiseptics and clean linen
This, didn’t feel like my room
Shifting underneath stiff sheets I became more and more aware of how unfamiliar the world around me was. Where had I fallen asleep last night? The memory doesn’t immediately come.
I opened my eyes and was met with an unfamiliar ceiling; previous senses filling in the gaps to paint a concerning picture.
Or:
A fan of the series is thrust into a time before the main story, abruptly waking as Touya from 3 years comatose after his supposed death.

Summary
Annie believed in the rigidity of self: fixed, unchanging, tabula rasa be damned. But Mikasa was a theory Annie couldn’t disprove: selfless, idealistic, a moral certainty in a world that taught her not to believe in anything.
When Mikasa adopts a shelter dog, Annie wonders if the self can be undone—and finds herself undone by the very longing she dares not acknowledge.
The curse and bliss of forbidden yearning. The reprieve in contradiction.
A slow burn about moral collapse and buried grief for readers who like love that hurts.

Summary
"H-how's she doing?" Jax ignored the question, instead focusing on the bookshelf Infront of him as he pulled a few of his favorites down.
"Jax?"
Turning to look at the small crowd that had gathered behind him Jax rolled his eyes. "Who Pomni? She's fine, Never been better."
His sarcastic and cutting tone made Zooble roll her eyes while Gangle flinched slightly but it was Ragatha who spoke up first. "You don't need-"
He cut her off, not really in the mood to be chastised by her or any of them at the moment. "Seriously though guys, what; this isnt like the birds and bees talk. You can't just avoid talking about it for 20 years and then throw your hands up and go 'Oopse, I guess we missed our chance, sorry' when she finally does start asking questions."
A small smirk of satisfaction spread across his face as everyone shifted uncomfortably, looking slightly ashamed. Again it was Ragatha who spoke for the group. "We... we didn't know... how to... tell her."
That made the smirk fall from his face. "You tell her the truth, that her physical body in the real world is dying and that soon she'll be stuck here forever as a digital copy of her former self."

Summary
What does it mean to be both country and man?
To walk the world wearing a face that belongs to millions, a voice that echoes through centuries, and a heart that remembers every wound ever carved into its soil?
Sometimes the face changes. The eyes. The mouth. The bones beneath. He has worn so many of them that he no longer remembers which belonged to him first.
Sometimes France thinks he is more human than nation. And sometimes—God help him—he feels the opposite.

Summary
Corvin Thornfield, a young cadet training to join the Royal Army of Cammoth, is told by his commander that he, along with his best friend (an elf named Cambrian), will be escorting the three young royals of Cammoth to Eminyre, the kingdom of the elves, for diplomatic purposes. There are just a few small problems. The princess, Alanor, is murderous and impulsive; the first of the princes, Tomathus, is a raging kleptomaniac; and Prince Mercolais is allegedly possessed by a demon who is also his best friend. Worse, when he reaches the elven kingdom, he hears whispers of a sinister cult hidden within the forest of the neighbouring province of Kien. And weaving through the main story like a grating whisper is the perspective of a vengeful deity, planning her escape to destroy the world that abandoned her.

Summary
He’d spent long, wakeful nights agonizing over the reality that he would never have the opportunity to be close to the Warrior of Light again. Not in any meaningful way, anyway. He’d lost that chance when he’d sealed himself away in the tower, ego eclipsing what he now knows was panic as he fell for a woman on a trajectory to greatness he had no hope of achieving.
