    Summary

    He felt someone roughly grab his hair, pulling it up as consciousness slowly left him. It was the captain, with his cruel but beautiful grin. Grian could now see the scars that covered the man's body. He had brown tousled hair and stricking green eyes. "My, my, what a pretty little prize caught here."

    Or, Grian is a siren who got caught by a crew of pirates.

    Summary

    Grian Xelqua was an avian in a city full of Hybrids.
    He was also a villain with a long-standing rivalry.
    Of course, everything Grian’s worked for is turned on its head when he got shot down by one hero in particular.
    There was no way he can show the ‘heroes’ who the real villain is now… right?
    No. No way at all. They’d never believe it- and even if they did, it was Grian’s word against his.

    Summary

    “You forget who you’re fighting with,” Portal drawls, her voice dangerously low and crackling, distorted and fuzzy and impossible to place. “You forget with a blink of an eye, I can be next to you, without a single thought. You can’t run from me, Myriad.”

    Scott forces a smile onto his lips, despite knowing it’ll hardly be visible beneath the shine of light that comes from the crystals circulating around his head like a halo, the stones dipping lower to ward off the shadows that threaten to reveal his features. “Why, Portal, I think you’ve forgotten who you’re fighting. You’ve forgotten the true strength of The Speakers.”

    “The Speakers are not more powerful than us, Myriad. You are cowards, who are far too afraid to inflict real damage.”

    OR - a Life Series hero/villain AU heavy with lore (mainly Watcher and Speaker) with found family because I love found family :D

    Summary

    Thirty years ago, Xornoth was possessed by Exor. After killing their parents and rising to the throne, they imprisoned their brother, unable to kill him without killing themself.

    But now, they've figured out a way to dispose of him. Send him to an arranged marriage with their oldest enemy, the Ocean Empire, and let them deal with him however they see fit. With thousands of years of tension between the two kingdoms, it won't be long before they decide they don't want him around anymore.

    Jimmy just wants peace for his people. And if marrying some recluse prince is the key to finally ending the feud between their empires, he'll do it. But his new fiance is far from what he was expecting, and slowly he begins to wonder if there is something more sinister going on within the walls of the isolated elven kingdom.
