    Summary

    Zymnia's life has been . . . strange, to say the least. Born to a wonderful family, which was ripped away from her far too soon. Then she's sentenced to undue torture.
    After escaping, she wanders the world for centuries, which is becoming more and more difficult as humans and their technology evolve. It's because her presence now leaves traces of her existence.
    What happens when she's forced to return to Romania?
    Especially when she catches the interest of its resident clan of 'vampires' as she serves them.
    Though, the interest of the tallest one in particular, will be the most dangerous.
    Will Zym manage to survive right under their noses?
    Or will her truth be discovered, and her life take a turn for the worse once more?

    Summary

    Thomas the Tank Engine is a calm world… until you wake up reborn as (Iron) Phoenix, a brand new engine with little or no clue, too much steam, and a knack for surviving teasing engines, impossible schedules, and very judgmental coaches. Somehow, you have to learn the ropes of Sodor's very own North Western Railway itself, keep your firebox from exploding, and figure out if anyone has ever taught engines about basic self preservation, and all while wondering how much trouble one rookie engine can actually cause.

    And also, how do you make sure you don't die (again, maybe? Did you even die?) too soon as (Iron) Phoenix?

    {Just as a disclaimer, this is based on both canons with all their retcons that came with them!}

    Summary

    Ravenshire Estate, Albury, 1842

    Kim Taehyung, The Earl of Surrey, is trapped in a marriage that has already ended. Only a child keeps it from breaking entirely. When his wife commissions a painting of the two of them, he assumes it is nothing more than a formality. Perhaps even a farewell.

    Then Rosalind D’Angelo arrives.

    An Italian artist. Arrogant. Frustrating. Intriguing. Attractive. Beautiful. Melancholic. Deadly.

    She is full of colour in ways he has never known.

    He does not understand what she sees in him. But for the first time, he begins to wonder what it might mean to feel.

    This is the story of a colourblind man falling in love with an artist.

    Every tale from the history of mankind is being told there from every possible side. In this museum, everyone from tyrannical dictators to the royalty who actually cared about their subjects, and everyone in between, is equal. They all have a story to tell, both in good and bad.
    But when the night falls after the latest exhibition is opened, something strange happens.
    The museum residents, the statues and paintings, come to life and they have a mission. To stop history from repeating itself all over again.

    Summary

    The sea spoke in pressure and pulse before it even learned the language of men.
    Languid whistles, short clicks and snaps used to share memories, thoughts, feelings. Carried through the open waters through vibrations alone. A language older than the first vessel.
    _______

    The air was stiff and rank. North blowing winds brought the stench from further down south of the Thames towards you. Biting your nose in a way that was all too familiar and yet never got any more pleasant. Even after five years of traveling the nearby waters on command of the navy. It never got any easier on the senses. If anything, it got worse with time.
    ________________
    In which Sukuna is a pirate and sea folk are real and as plentiful in kind as the creatures of the sea. You are one of them.
    Though to survive you had to blend in with the Navy, who themselves hunt your kind.
    But not for long.

    Summary

    In 1743, in Paris, she was a ghost in a red dress, moving through Versailles unnoticed. In 2026, in Seoul, she is just another college student, or at least that is what everyone thinks. Katarina spent seven centuries perfecting the art of disappearing. Seven hundred years as a vampire, a Pure Bloodline Noble, or at least that is what the High Court records say.

    The problem is that some people are starting to notice.

    A human who treated her with indifference, at a time when everyone bowed to her, ended up breaking through every wall she had built. Yu Jimin was used to having everything handed to her. Kim Minjeong became her ruin.

    Summary

    Geir Dagrsson knows three things: cattle die, kinsmen die, but the one thing that doesn’t is a man’s deeds. He just didn’t expect his greatest one to be marrying the brat prince of East Anglia, and worst of all, the son of one of his father’s killers: a Saxon.

    Ӕlfstan, son of Cadwallon, loathes the heathens plaguing their lands. When he is sold off in marriage to one, he will do whatever it takes to free himself from the man, his father’s wishes be damned. The Viking he is promised to also proves to be just as irritating as he expected.

    Little do they both know, sinister forces are looking to sow more discord between the denizens of East Anglia, with Geir and Ӕlfstan at the centre of it all.

    Summary

    Vincent Whittman has been demoted. One of the best Crime Correspondents America has ever seen has been burdened with the amateur task of trekking down to Southern Louisiana in the vibrant, multi-ethnic city of New Orleans to personally investigate the harrowing murders that have been seeping fear and plaguing the local tight-knit community. So instead of dishing out executive orders in his gaudy office in Uptown Manhattan, he is forced to march down viscous, algae-filled and alligator-infested swamp waters with sticky pomade running down the back of his neck. The hot, humid and oppressive climate slowly eating away at his carefully curated persona of perfection, as a charming local Radio Host around him acts clueless.

    Summary

    In Aziraphale’s shop, there sat a book he had never read. Among Crowley’s memories, there were moments he had never joked about. In all the world, there was one story the two of them had never discussed. A story they could only hold in silence.

    —“Don’t be cross, angel,” said War. “Actually, I wanted to thank you both. I was a long way from this damp island when I heard that someone had already done my work for me. Tell me, angel, are you aware of the destructive power of the force you have brought into being?”

    Crowley, Aziraphale and the Wars of the Roses.

    Summary

    Claire and Jamie meet on deployment in France, in the thick of WWII.

    This is not a retelling of Outlander in Claire's time, but it does have echoes of the show and book cannon sprinkled throughout. Really just a tribute to the women who served in WW2 and an excuse to write another Jamie and Claire story with a different twist than my other pieces.
