    Summary

    There is a saying that " What happens in Suran, stays in Suran."

    It should have been a night of celebration, one that leave you precious memories that lasts a lifetime, but instead, everything turned to chaos.

    From drinking heavily to drowning himself in a drugging haze, the night of Vedreth's birthday at the House of Earthly Delights left him heavy consequences that last a lifetime.

    Summary

    John was a human thrall infected with an illithid tadpole. Due to a rare case of partialism, John and the tadpole are now Lubuzol, a young mind flayer who doesn't fit in amongst the other illithids of the colony. It turns out it's hard to be a mind flayer when you have a human code of ethics. Who would've thought?

    (Lubuzol recounts their life from ceremorphosis, to befriending their first and only thrall, to the banishment that led to meeting Vers the eladrin at a tavern in Vaelan, Durpar.)

    Summary

    Monsters aren’t born, they are made.
    Taken from a life of abuse and pain, Oliver was promised something better — a place where he would belong, where suffering would end, where he could finally be whole. But what began as trust became betrayal. What was meant to be salvation became confinement. Stripped of his name, his body and his humanity, Oliver was reduced to an experiment. A number. A test run. A Prototype…

    But we begin when Nicolas is 16. Is he The Devil’s Child?

    The story is/will be partly inspired by reading in Anne Rice's draft of the Vampire Lestat at Tulane University that she once had considered Nicolas attending the Louis-Le-Grand school as a boy...

    Summary

    “He’d always thought he’d wait. Until he’d earned it. Until it felt like he’d lived up to his mother’s expectations. He’d failed. And now the entire city was depending on him. He couldn’t fail them too.”

    “She wasn’t a hero. Not even close. She was a walking disaster, a thief, a murderer…She didn’t deserve it, not at all, And even then, part of her, a tiny part that had been long pushed into the very depths of her soul, wanted nothing more than to make them proud.”

    Summary

    What does it mean to be cool? Is it the way you dress? The way you walk? The way you act? That’s something one uma is still desperately trying to figure out. But if there’s one thing Vodka knows for certain, it’s that this brand-new trainer is definitely not cool.

    And then there’s her, Daiwa Scarlet. The one girl Vodka can never seem to get along with, no matter how hard she tries. Rival? A best friend? Something else entirely? Even Vodka can’t name whatever’s growing between them. Or maybe she doesn't want to.

    Her team doesn’t make things any easier.
    Tamamo Cross, the cocky, stubborn ball of lightning who's dealt with judgement her whole life.
    And Haru Urara, the softest ray of sunshine imaginable, trying so hard to help everyone that she forgets herself.

    In the middle of all this, Vodka is forced to confront her biggest question:
    If being cool is all about being yourself…
    then who exactly is Vodka supposed to be?

    If you need to escape the mountain of Vodsca angst and sadness out there, this is the fanfic for you!

    Real life, Anime, and Game inspired. More shenanigans. Less weird stuff. It’ll be a grand ole time.

    Summary

    Peter Parker was never bitten by a radioactive spider as a teenager. Instead, he lost a few important people, grew up, and got a doctorate in molecular biology.
    At twenty-eight, he took a job at Engels Biomedical, an institute specializing in experimental cancer treatment. Three months in, he learns the samples he's been working on don't come from a corpse.
    They belong to a deeply scarred terminal patient, known as Subject 061, who is still somehow alive, existing in a limbo of incomplete regeneration.
    ---
    In which Peter Parker is already somewhat fucked up when he meets the mildly deranged Wade Wilson dying from cancer, and things proceed to get worse from there. This is an alternate on the Weapon X shit.
    ---
    "Hey, am reading this shit wrong, or is today a special occasion? 'Cause you didn't bring food? You broke the routine–"
    "Well, I thought it might be romantic if we just starved together for once, Pool, obviously."
    Once the words were out and left hanging in the air, they took on the shape of a twisted setup to... a slightly unconventional romcom? Well, except no one would probably laugh at this one.

    Summary

    Before you set out on this journey, I need you to let go of everything you think you know. Everything you think to be real or fixed in reality. I need you to believe anything, and I mean ANYTHING is possible. Because this is a story of a boy who gains superpowers anyone might expect, but how he uses them and the path he walks is quite unexpected...
