    Summary

    Lieutenant Grace thought that this would be an easy job, hauling cargo from one sector to another with the ship on autopilot and the rest of the crew in hibernation. Enough time for self care and HRT, enough money to retire early. But not everyone was on hibernation, and that would change her life dramatically.

    Summary

    Ivan is a simple farmer boy with little to his name, and then the Tsar's men take away everything he has to live for—except revenge. This summer, read the story of how one lowly peasant with nothing left to lose takes on the corrupt national pastime of hot sauerkraut wrestling, and takes down the entire Russian empire in the process.

    A story in five I mean six I mean some number of parts because I'm bad at estimating how much plot I have.

    Summary

    When John answers the cries for help in a forest, he finds a strange bird left beaten and bleeding, all alone. That bird turns out to be a boy like him- like, literally, turns out to be, John only has his back on him for one second, and suddenly there's a winged, bleeding boy on his couch calling himself Dave.
    He has no home and no memories he will admit to that might explain why he was left the way he was, or where his glossy red wings have come from. So of course, the Egberts take him in.
    It's all going to work out. Ok, so John didn't count on falling in love. And Dave didn't count on becoming the target of multiple stalkings and harassment that smack of government conspiracies. And neither one of them could have predicted the forces that have been set in motion simply by Dave being there.
    But it's all going to work out.

    Summary

    "I don't believe I've had the pleasure, sir," you say, extending your hand.

    He smiles, his teeth like an anglerfish's. He takes your hand in one of his (if only he weren't gloved; you're so curious about the texture of his skin) and presses the other to his chest, where his heart ought to be. "Rrh'dan," he says, and then something you assume is a question, from the upward crook of the scale-ridge above his eye.

    Summary

    Presenting a story based loosely around the human fairy tale "The Little Mermaid", featuring a yellow-blooded councilor of the Democratic Council of Lowbloods and the princess of the mythological seadwelling aristocracy and illustrated by the author.

    Includes four scenes showing activities of a flushed nature, two flushed kisses, a profusion of explicit pale interaction which may be inappropriate for younger audiences, misuse of psychic abilities, one instance bordering on black flirtation, a conflicted relationship involving one-sided red feelings and one-sided pale feelings, five explosions, three heroic sacrifices, the death of a major character, a scene of spiritual possession, a red-blooded mutant showing extreme sass in the face of his genetic betters, a violent execution in flashback, and an epilogue.

    Summary

    The creature straightens up and settles in the sunlight, wrapping its long, glittering tail around itself in thick coils. The scales run up to its waist, where you can see hints of human skin against the smooth hide. It has a thin, cunning face, softened by a strangely mild smile that stretches its too-wide mouth, and its hair is in a wiry braid over its shoulder.

    “Nnn,” you say, and point with a hand that shakes so badly you’re barely pointing at the creature at all. “—nuh. Nah. *Naga*—”
