Summary
25-year-old Grace Avery is a stunning woman working as a detective/investigator. Due to her looks, she often gets sexist remarks from her colleagues, seen only as an object of praise and beauty rather than a fellow detective. Annoyed and frustrated, she goes to an old friend for help and assistance, asking for a partner who doesn't care about her looks and has the brains to work with her, to which she learns that there is a person who could help her, the problem lays in the fact that, that person is the very same man who Grace knew and hated in high school, Basil M. House. Will Grace continue to hate his guts? Is Basil the same man whom Grace knew in High school? And will their relationship change?
This is a reimagining of Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Besides being a reimagining, it's also a composite of different mystery stories and movies that I loved, so don't be surprised if some of the cases or puzzles look familiar. Apologies for the grammar mistakes:( Really enjoyed writing this:)
Message to royal staff: I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com

I had endured that depression for as long as I could bear, and this evening, I had admittedly indulged more than a little in cocaine.”

Summary
Puha paplan súlyába burkolózva voltam, Sylus ismerős melege mellettem, és a kezében tartott könyv olyan volt, mintha harmadik jelenlét lenne a szobában. Abban az alacsony, egyenletes hangjában olvasott — abban a fajta hangban, amely kisimítja a sarkokat és lassítja a világot — és éreztem, ahogy minden oldallal egyre nehezebbé válik a szemhéjam. Nevetséges volt tulajdonképpen: Délután még ébren voltam, és mégis itt ültem, szemhéjaim estefelé függönyként hajladoztak, elcsitítva a szavai ritmusától.

Summary
I was wrapped in the soft weight of the duvet, the familiar heat of Sylus beside me, and the book in his hands was like a third presence in the room. He read in that low, steady voice of his — the sort that smooths edges and slows the world — and I could feel my eyelids growing heavier with every page. It was ridiculous, really: I’d spent the afternoon properly awake, and yet here I was, eyelids folding like curtains in the evening, lulled by the cadence of his words.

Summary
Ichigo didn't think anything stranger could happen in his life after discovering that the afterlife was real, that a bunch of katana-wielding lunatics were guiding souls to the afterlife, and that monsters apparently existed and literally wanted to eat your soul. And now he had to hunt them down with powers that weren't his, to begin with.
Then he had to backtrack when he was forced to invade the cursed other world to save his friend, and to top it all off, fight a megalomaniacal lunatic with delusions of grandeur, losing those powers in the process.
After that, he thought nothing else strange could happen.
He had to learn to keep his mouth shut because now he was in a room with friends and enemies alike, with another lunatic forcing them to read a book supposedly from another world in order to get out.
He just wanted to be able to finish high school in peace. Was that too much to ask?
