Summary
Peter’s been distant lately. Edgy. Angry. On his best days, he moves through his life in a vague daze, skipping meals and sleeping. On his worst, he’s hit with fits of anger that border on unthinking rage.
Monday afternoon, he breaks Flash Thompson’s hand.
Wednesday evening, he goes missing.
That night, the first headless corpse appears in Queens.

Summary
“Please, Arthur,” and it’s only as Arthur steps into Merlin’s personal space that he takes a step back. Merlin can see his reflection in the metal of the sword, metal he had polished just that morning, and his breathing quickens. “Please, I have not betrayed you.”
“But you have,” Arthur growls, and whether he realises it or not, he holds his sword up slightly.
And Merlin…
Merlin drops to his knees, in line with Arthur's sword, and leans forward.
“Then, kill me,” and it’s an order that Merlin speaks.
Arthur drags Merlin along on a hunt.
They discover that Merlin is more than willing to die, but only if it’s by Arthur's hand.

Summary
My growing, canon-compliant companion series to Suzanne Collin's masterwork. Depicts events Gregor didn’t witness, or key moments from other perspectives. Attention is given to background characters, showing the effect of major events on the common creatures of the Underland. Will climax in my "sequel," set 8 years later. There's some chronological overlap (especially with Epilogues), but here's the recommended reading order:
Son of the Sun
Bring Us Back Light
He Leaped
Evil Cloaked In Armor Bright*
Home Front*
Warrior In Training
Die Not the Baby
Forged By Loss*
Excursion*
Useless*
Ripred's Ward*
Summer Vacation*
The Queen's Pet*
Through Dark, Then Flame*
Not a Very Big Bat*
Made Her Grandmother Proud
Those That Remain
Patients and Caretakers*
Hold the Line
Remember Them
Regalia Bleeds
Rebels Without a Rager*
Now Cracks an Iron Heart*
This Waste of Precious Life*
Gregor's Letter
Farewells*
Worlds Apart*
Hazard the Halflander*
*planned story that has not yet been posted

Summary
Samirah snickered, “yeah, he’ll be fine.”
“So it’s not contagious or anything?” Alex inquired, letting Magnus grab at her hand and play with her fingers mindlessly.
“Not to you, at least,” Samirah scanned his room, turning towards the giant tree and mish-mashed garden in the center. She examined it for a few seconds. “It’s probably fine. It’s like demigod allergies, or something.”
“Pretty sure I’ve never had demigod allergies, or something,” Alex quipped back. Magnus was preoccupied with the ridges of her knuckles. They were quite fascinating, honestly, so delicate and nimble, and also dexterous.
“Your hand is so perfect,” he muttered with awe.
“Gee, thanks,” she smiled, then used her slender fingers to open his palm to deposit a pill. “Here is your Advil, good sir.”
