Summary
Gledswith, daughter of Gálmód’s whole world was rear-ended over the span of two weeks. One minute, she’s content scraping a living with the other creatives on the streets on Edoras, while simultaneously trying to overthrow her tyrant of a brother, Gríma Wormtongue.
The next, she’s on the run from the law, injured and without a sword or horse in the wilds west of the Gap of Rohan.
Upon meeting the future steward of Gondor in less-than-desirable circumstances, she finds herself roped into a plot to save the world through the destruction of an evil piece of jewellery, with an Elf, a wizard, a dwarf, four hobbits, and the heirs of what appears to be the two most prestigious houses in all the kingdoms of men!
And if that’s not bad enough, she has FEELINGS?!A generic tenth walker fic, but a Boromir ship is always a plus

Now a series! There are so many stories about the world where Vamps and later others were revealed to exist, and I am a one-shot specialist, so I've decided to add on to the work formerly known as T-Shirts.
1: T-Shirts - Cadogan vamp sees some unofficial merch at the park
2: Vending Machines - Kansas City Community College just installed vending machines with Blood2Go. Can the class tell who's fanged and who isn't?
3: The Green Vigilante - a half-sorcerer on a date explains how he accidentally grew her favorite trees in the park, and charms her with a flower.

Summary
Lyrus had not expected much of his new placement. He hadn't been told who agreed to take him off the poor social worker's hands until his unruly magic would undoubtedly act up again and shatter the peace he tried to build time and time again.
But Elmwood Hall was a surprise. Specifically the fact that it was haunted.
As he digs deeper into the mysteries of the manor, guided by a spirit missing her name, he begins to uncover more of the truth he had avoided this whole second life.Knowing the future should be an advantage. But this was real, not just a fantasy and if Lyrus had learned anything by dying, it was to play your cards close to your chest and stay in relative safety. If it weren't for his bleeding heart and his own magic's reckless streak, he might actually believe that to be an excellent plan.

Summary
In the sacred temple of the Quiet One, the preacher preached and the devotees repeated:
For pain is in every path of this world, it is endless until death comes.
But, it also reminds that if you still feel the pain, you are still alive.
No pain is everlasting.
For even pain must die, and we all have to walk the path of impermanence.
And at the end, every road leads to death.
Death will come to me and it will come for me, so will it come to pain.
When my time has come, I will embrace it, the inevitable.
But now, here I am, remain.Series

Summary
"HERMIT HARBOUR'S MERMIN: A RESEARCHER'S STUDY INTO THE CURIOUS CASE OF MOON GLOWING SEA CREATURES.
Mermin, first of all, is extremely old, now obsolete terminology for creatures currently called merfolk (inclusive of mermaids and mermen).
It is specifically used for the half fish, half human looking creature that uses their singing as bait.On this coast, the term has survived the years.
It is, in fact, still used by the paranoid people of Hermit Harbour to refer to this specific myth of theirs.
Although they never as much utter a word about the beings, it is the most notable myth in town.
One of the many, sitting comfortably next to the ghostly spectres of The Choir, their walking trees and talking birds.On oneself's experience, here's my account of what this tale entails."
The papers are signed off by Gem Stones, Scientist at the Facility of Research and Crafting.

Summary
Michaela sells flowers for apologies and confessions.
Francesca doesn’t seem interested in either as she helps make people's decisions feel permanent.
When a tattoo parlor expansion brings them together, what starts as business quickly turns into something harder to define. Something that is measured in glances, half-finished conversations, and tension that refuses to stay subtle.
Somewhere in the middle of it all, Michaela realizes this isn’t just another order while Francesca realizes that this isn't just another sketch she can ink onto skin.
