    Summary

    Blackkite stands at a tipping point. Ideals that used to be clear cut are becoming increasingly uncertain and doubtful. The absence of Stormpaw is troubling, even more so when those in command are certainly hiding their knowledge from her. In her attempts to unravel what is being kept from her, she also must navigate and power through the social ladder. Blackkite must gain the tentative trust of all those who attempt to keep their distance, while Pikeleg urges her to keep working on the physical, rather than shallow relationships based upon words. Blackkite can’t afford to stop her progress towards either.

    Summary

    Hitoshi's hand finds his, leather gloves brushing against skin.

    "It'll grow back," He states simply, hidden meaning and obvious care laced behind the words. Allister doesn't deserve any of it.

    "...I know."

    "It'll grow back." He repeats, unconvinced, unflinching.

    "I..." Allister isn't convinced himself, either. "I'm sorry."

    Or

    Hair holds memories, and while some of it was lost, it will grow back. Allister learns this.

    “Um. Right.”
    He slowly breathed in… and out.
    They needed to know. They needed to know from him. Not from the news.
    “Something… Happened.”

    ***

    The aftermath of the fall. John and Mariana in the hiatus. And the return.

    Summary

    Sometimes, your next mission beckons to you as a gorgeous blonde in a red dress.
    Sometimes, it sneers at you, wearing the face of a friend turned enemy.
    Sometimes, it hits you in the face with a folding chair.

    One month past Calamity's Fall, the new normal still hasn't settled in properly for David and the Reckoners. With Obliteration still on the loose and many cities descending into chaos as their epic rulers come to their senses, they've retreated back to the safety of Newcago - until a lorist approaches David with both a warning of an epic coming for them, and a plea for help.
    As it turns out, the Reckoners are already much more deeply entangled in Willowwhisper's plans than they could have imagined. Now, they have no choice but to fight an epic with an insatiable thirst for vengeance, a two months' headstart on preparations, many allies, and even hostages.
    And if that wasn't enough, in order to stand any chance at all, they need to turn Erlking to their side - an epic that has them struggling against their own subconscious minds...

    Summary

    Isabelle ( Bells ) Hann thought she had her life perfectly mapped out: a prestigious role at tech consultancy Larssens Ltd, an engagement to the generationally wealthy Theodore Watson, and a future built on safety and respectability.

    But her carefully constructed world begins to unravel around one man: her predatory, dangerously handsome boss, Jude Larssen. Once dubbed "the British Steve Jobs in the making" by City AM, his razor-sharp mind and ruthless instincts have kept Bells orbiting him like a moth to a flame for three years.

    When Jude manipulates a high-stakes dinner with the CEO of Japanese conglomerate Yamamoto Industries, claiming he and Bells are engaged (using Theo's ring as a prop, naturally) in order to win the deal of a lifetime, three years of simmering professional tension ignite into something far more volatile.

    Drawn deeper into his web of corporate machinations, possible fraud and psychological games, Bells begins to discover that the line between manipulation and desire is thinner than she ever dared to admit.

    Two people who use sex as a weapon, love as leverage, and each other as collateral damage. A story about obsession, predation, manipulation and desire.

    Summary

    After longing for years to escape the chaos of the big city, Ukyo made one of the biggest decisions of his life by moving to a rural town in the Japanese countryside. And after picking up a job with the town's postal service, Ukyo grew to appreciate his new life and his new daily routines as a paperboy.

    But it would seem that he wasn't the only one who had the idea of moving to the small town of Kotohira, as a bakery that almost seemed out of place with its overly-fancy pastries sold under the name of "Chez François" opened up in the far corners of the town. Enticed by the scent of bread, Ukyo finds more than he could have ever anticipated there, in the shape of an eccentric employee with an all-too charming smile bringing an unexpected nuance to his life.

    A reticent genius and an obsessive maniac...

    Each, a mirror unto the other. Where one ends and the other begins, neither can tell.

    Summary

    Loon Song. Shane had heard of it, in an offside way. When he was with Rose, years ago, a place she’d mentioned because a friend had gone, and he didn’t get the hint because of course he didn’t. It looked overwhelming. Reservation only. Limited seating. Set tasting menu. Classic French with a Russian twist—Shane didn’t know anything about either cuisine, and didn’t know how to appreciate it. Most of his knowledge, and by most he meant all, went to hockey.
    But he liked food. In a way he couldn’t describe; he liked its purpose, what it provided to him, the way it existed as a communal endeavor.

    Shane has a complicated relationship with food. It needs to nourish him, keep him at the top of his game. But good food is a temptation any man would give into, and when it comes from the hands of Ilya Rozanov, Shane would be a fool to say no.

    Summary

    Amber Freeman, born to two cannibals, kills her parents and escapes the mountains. Found by hikers, she passes as an ordinary child and bounces through orphanages until age ten, when she’s adopted by film director Roman Bridger, who recognizes and helps her manage her cannibalistic urges.

    They move to Woodsboro, where Amber attends school, makes friends, and keeps her darker instincts largely in check. She later discovers Ghostface and becomes the Cannibal Ghostface, drawing attention from the Legacy Survivors.

    Then she meets Tara Carpenter—short, sweet, and irresistible—who awakens Amber’s instincts and her first experience of love. Amber now struggles to balance her hunger with her feelings for Tara, hoping she might not have to hide who she truly is.

    Summary

    One day, quite out of the blue, personifications of nations from all over the place find themselves on another planet in another universe, scattered to the four winds.

    Now here is the interesting part: Teyvat is based on the Earth.

    A crossover of epic proportions, charactered personalities meet completely fantastical ones, and when they gaze into their eyes, countries see reflections of themselves. While the experience may seem scary, what it really is… is a learning journey…

    If America would let himself be found for five minutes!
    ————

     
    Mostly just consists of Hetalia characters pal-ing around in the Genshin universe.
    ‼️ For Genshin fans, no knowledge of Hetalia beyond the basic premise is required (seriously nothing happens in that show)
    ‼️For Hetalia fans, you don’t need to know so much about Genshin— I will try my best to put in as much exposition and context clues to explain everything, but it just might get a liiiitle confusing if you don’t know anything about it

    [Taking requests!!!]

    Summary

    A collection of one-shots involving my main OC JD-13 and his 3 three other buddies. Will add to this as I write more. This is the world's first exposure to the utter plague that is my Murder Drones OCs. Expect... a lot of things, but if you have criticism, I would love to hear it. And, if you hate it, I don't blame you and completely understand. I will try to respond to all comments if I can. Expect an entirely inconsistent update schedule. Suggestions for one-shots and full stories welcome.
