Summary
You may have once believed in morality. You may have once been a person who wanted to be faultless and for everyone to admire your resilience. But what would you do if you had to sacrifice your dignity for someone who promised you love? What would you do if you had to kill someone for the sake of it? Would you then care for your image?
Agatha Sutton, one of the wealthiest women in New Orleans, always cared for her image. Being a strong, independent woman, Agatha never considered her luxury as one of her achievements, but only how faithfully she relied on her virtue. Until she crossed paths with Alastor, the famous Radio Man. Soon, Agatha will fall into the depths of his charm, and to win his heart, she will do anything. Even if that means stealing someone else's life.

Summary
Pete shakes his head, attempting to and for the most part succeeding at clearing his head of anything related to his lunchtime freakout. It'd been mostly internal, but that didn't make it any less of a freakout, the kind where he'd realized that these people he thinks of as his close friends don't think the same of him.
Peter B is like his uncle, or maybe a father figure, or something— Pete has yet to really find a role that fits— and Peni has always been like a little sister to him, Gwen too, more or less, but instead of them being one big family, well…
They are one big family.
Pete is the black and white ornate knocker they've installed on the family home's front door, some sort of parlor trick to show to new friends. He's a collectible, a vintage album, a trinket they carry around not out of love or reverence but out of a sense of amusement.
or, the one where Pete runs from his feeling of not meaning anything to his friends and ends up making a new friend along the way.

Summary
Beneath the surface of a bustling Metropolis, the slums of a 1930s New York is not for the faint of heart. Crime syndicates run rampant throughout the streets with the Valenti family controlling East Harlem.
In the center of it all is a friendship built upon blood, sweat, and tears between a blue collar worker named Hazel, and Toni, a Contractee in charge of disposing enemies of the family. Toni knows his sanctuary is the laundromat Hazel works at, and his greatest mission is to keep Hazel out of harms way, especially from his sadistic and predatory boss, Vince.
But the one time he lets his guard down, the fragile veil Toni's made between his two lives is shattered. When the monster he serves sets his gaze on the one person Toni wants to protect, the desperate fight to survive begins. For Hazel, that means her only option is to run away, little rabbit.

Summary
For every trial, for every task,
there is a corresponding mask.
A frown, a smirk, a pout, a grin,
They shield the soul contained therein.
But masks and faces, and manners too,
disguise the single face that’s true.
The face that’s under the facade,
the one the foolish, charmed and awed,
profess to see, to claim to know,
although they’ve never seen it show.
And so they pry through charm and guile,
in hopes to see what’s ‘neath that smile.
However, they are unaware,
that mask and face are not a pair.
For those that pry soon come to find
they don’t like what’s hiding behind,
because the face once locked within,
might not be that charming grin.
And thus the wise are dread to ask
to see what’s there beneath the mask.
