    Summary

    Once upon a time, a wind had both a secret and a lie.

    Secrets and lies are both delicious things, but can be like dynamite and matches if not handled correctly. Now, September, who practically wore her heart on her sleeve, knew how to deal with them. And this particular secret, hidden by layers and layers of nothing but fabric and lies, was to stay hidden at all costs. She'd do anything to keep it to herself, to keep it in even if it kills her.

    But of course, nobody knows that.

    So when one of the winds suddenly go MIA, Hawthornes entire world is turned upside down. Theories spread- kidnapping by fairies, a rip in the world's fabric, pirates- the like. Desperate to put an end to the madness, he and Tamburlaine set off (As well as what feels like the entirety of Fairyland, once a reward is offered) determined to bring their friend home, and keep the barely balanced peace thats been hanging before it breaks.

    Summary

    Original Title: I wish you were born a boy

    Hialeah Steadmen is a spinster at the age of twenty four, and she thinks she's going to stay that way her entire life. What does she even have going for her? No money, no job, she still lives with her father and all she does is cook and clean. With her mother gone, it feels like the grief's taken everything away from her, leaving nothing but a hollow shell. Hialeah isn't herself anymore, rather a ghost just in her presence.

    And then he arrives.

    She knows his secret, and Hialeah doesn't know what to do. This woman-man, this thing, makes her feel alive again. Even though their relationship is merely nothing more than a mutual promise, her affections grow until it hurts. But this is Hialeah's world, and the one thing she's learned is that nothing ever goes right for her.

    But will this?

    Summary

    Jack was sick of waiting. Day after day of just checking the news, hanging onto blind hope, watching Jupiter sink deeper and deeper into his work that now three people they love are missing. He knows that his parents are never coming back, at this point they've probably been dead for years. He accepted it when all the missions to find them were abruptly canceled by the league at the start of the war, when searches for missing people were at its peak, wanting to bring them back home before the Republics invading forces got ahold of them.

    It's too late for them. Maybe it always was.

    But its not too late for Morrigan
    Ever since he got the news that her plane had gone MIA in Prosper, the nagging thought that he should find her has been in his head, especially with his growing frustration with the league's and Wunsocs incompetence. After all, in their eyes, a dead wundersmith is a good wundersmith. Jack, however, disagrees. He wants her back, he wants his family back, he wants the normal that they had back.
    Even if it means running off to the republic underneath a new identity to find the most evil man alive and (hopefully) convince him to find Morrigan.

    After all that's what family does.

    Summary

    They were insufferable at the parties.

    All the time, without a doubt you'd see them, hand in hand looking into each others eyes like they were the only people who existed in the world. Honestly, it was disgustingly sweet to look at, but nobody mentioned it because in his stupor, Waysa would always pay for their drinks which benefited them all in the long run.

    Summary

    Push and pull, pull and push. Two souls with two opposing sides kept in a measly body, practically abandoned in the darkness of Biltmores basement.

    Ethel believes that the darkness is safety, away from the danger of being taken away from their father, sold to who knows what. She cannot speak, even if she could, she wouldn’t. She controls their body, steering them away from whatever she considers ‘danger’, and heavily opposes Serafinas questioning about the upstairs world, which they’ve only visited once or twice. When they witness a man in a black cloak chasing down a young girl in a yellow dress however, everything changes.

    Serafina is the opposite. She speaks, and uses that liberty freely, and has very weak control over their body. While Ethel can make it move and walk, she can only drag them to and fro. Curious about the upstairs world, especially more if there’s a potential cure to their suffering, she wont stop at anything to get them up there, even if it means luring down the son of the ‘light people’ down to them.

    Oh well, another indulgent conjoined twins au. Enjoy!! (This is only for fun, dont expect a reliable updating sceduale, I will update my other works soon!! <3)

    Summary

    Traumatized ever since the untimely death of her mother at the hands of the humans, Serafina finds herself spending more and more time out in the forest, with the animals, buried deep in nature. Is it a way of dissociating from the cruel nature of the world? Perhaps. It feels good to just leave her human half, but she knows of the consequences of staying in it too long. Her mother died because of that, and shes not ready to follow in her footsteps.
    But her death had a way with meddling with her mind, and Serafina slowly starts to emulate her, her wildness slinking through ever since the day her body was dropped into the ground, the anger of the forest and its inhabitants corrupting her, twisting her, until she’ll do whatever it takes to take her homeland back.

    Summary

    What is a match without a flame?
    And what is dynamite without a spark?
    If mixed together, it’ll just destroy, not create.
    Rowena knew that, Serafina knew that. Everyone knew that.

    Summary

    Before Biltmore, before carriages, horses, before boiler rooms and dresses made out of silk, before Uriah first laid his eyes on the Appalachia's, before Serafina stepped out of the basement to tell the tale of a girl wearing yellow dress, before the first Cherokee made their home in what is now North Carolina, before ships sailed in conquest to forgein lands, there was a different story.

    After being ejected from their clan, Serafina and Waysa have to basically rebuild their lives, patch up parts of their old ones, all while living in a world that seems to be the opposite of what they both need. But...they'll survive. At least as long as neolithic period homosapiens do.

    (basically one shots in chronological order)

    Summary

    For beatty_about_book's, my number one pookie <333 ilyyy/p

    Inspired by their work: Sugar, stockings, and stars

    Essie Walker was mad. She was alone now, her own lover leaving her in the dust for the grandeur of catamount nobility, the forest pulling her farther into its embrace. Its like she doesn't even exist anymore, just another coat hanger, another washer to throw clothing at.

    Essie is nothing to her anymore. Was she ever anything in the first place?

    Shes hurt.

    Really hurt.

    Maybe that's why she takes a page out of Serafina's book, and changes herself.

    Metamorphizes, into something more animalistic than before. Essie will not stop until she's burned down Serafinas life, until everyone she cares for is turned to her, until Serafina is left pathetic, crawling back to her. Its hard, Essie is a lamb pretending to be a wolf, but hidden in the pack that is the political state of catamount hierarchy, shes going to leap and prance to the top.

    Should be easy...right?
