    Summary

    Autumn, 1878

    When Alina Florence goes off to Ireland from England to see her cousin in hopes to travel the world with her family, a storm rushes in, taking her under the depths of the sea, completely unknown if she'll survive.

    Rescued by a creature of the North Atlantic, Dorian Ayres, he gives Alina a place to stay within an undersea manor that he calls home-- Cerulean Hall.

    Cerulean Hall is a ghastly sight to behold, rapidly decaying at every step Alina takes. There's a chill coming from the east wing of the manor, and tempting whispers from the west wing-- both locked with mystery as Dorian keeps the keys tightly within his claws. As one door opens for Alina, another closes with the intent on forcing Alina out.

    As more secrets unravel with each discovery in the undersea manor and the other inhabitants that reside there, Alina has to make a choice:

    Break the curse, or become a new part of it....

    Alina will go on a journey of love and survival as she tries to find the witch and break the binding contract and the curse set upon Dorian before his fate is permanently sealed.

    Summary

    In a quiet room, a simple chessboard becomes a continent, and L and Light lift their hands like emperors about to move the weather. Each piece is an army. Each rule is a law. Each look is a blade. By the time the kings finally touch hands across the board, even the gods are taking notes.

    Summary

    Harry Potter, investigative reporter for the Daily Prophet, leads a perfectly adequate life. When he’s not trawling back-alleys for a juicy story, he’s playing tea party with his favourite niece or eating curry with his former house-elf. Draco Malfoy, renowned chef in muggle Paris, was perfectly content living a life of obscurity. But when his mother’s health begins to fail, he must return to wizarding London and face his past. When Harry gets an odd assignment to interview the enigmatic chef of the new muggle-wizard restaurant Le Cerf, he’s reunited with his childhood bully - and is reminded just how much a person can change in ten years. Hijinks, mystery, and food-related dirty talk ensue when Harry receives an anonymous tip of a blackmarket dragon trade and enlists Draco to be his concierge into the shady underworld of the wizarding elite.

    A cool hand traces across his forehead, and it tugs him back to the sweat and the blood and the stench.
    Worried blue eyes, narrowed and suspicious, and he could laugh at the sight.
    Beej's eyes are the same color as the Cove.
    He wonders if the Pacific is the same shade of blue.

    hawk catches a case of walking pneumonia that finally catches up with him.

    Summary

    "You're so cute," says Jisung, smiling.
    Because it's one thing for his boyfriend to turn into a cat, but at least he’s a cute cat, not a snake. Or a herring. Or a stink bug.
    One has to be optimistic.

     

    or, Minho suddenly turns into a cat, and Jisung uses all his abilities to take care of him.

    Summary

    Momentos en un camino cruento, dónde deberá oscilar entre recuerdos borrosos de su noche.
    Oler el camino de regreso a su lugar especial,pero todos los caminos llevan a Roma, al que incluso con infulas de rey logró amar y no deja de conmoverlo.
    Aún cuándo no lo merece en absoluto.

    Recordar tiene un alto precio dónde solo los osados logran superar las rocas en el camino y no quebrarse en ese límite.
    Oh, el pasado puede doler pero debe mantenerlo latente aunque el pasado pisado jamás deberia ser olvidado.
    Mientras en el presente, el corazón invita a la seducción del lenguaje que el alma conoce, y seduce en trazos de su sangre.
    Anhelando un futuro mejor.

     

    Lule deberá pagar por sus pecados, en una habitación, y donde los pesará para recordar.
    Una unión de dos vidas paralelas que revelan un final anunciado hace lo que se siente eterno.
    La verdad está escondida en ese punto límite que no puede cruzar, y quizás ni siquiera sepa cómo enfrentar sin salir herido o desangrado pero aun queda un poquito de fé.
    Es así como se enfrenta a su peor miedo en un viaje entre lineas temporales, ¿podrá la verdad liberarlo, o por el contrario la mentira le aprisionará?.

    Summary

    Hermione was a prodigy who trusted logic over instinct. But grief hollowed her out, making her easy to lead—and easier to break.

    In the polished corridors of her first real job, her new boss, Tom, watches her too closely, his kindness edged with something she can’t name.

    As the walls close in, Hermione begins to understand: fear isn’t weakness. It’s the warning she should have listened to all along.

    The Gift of Fear is the last thing she has left.

    Summary

    The dead greet the living.
    We are those who wait at the end of all existence. We are those whose outstretched palm grasps infinity. We are the unchanging conclusion. We are your reflection and your foil.
    You are the infant, new from the cradle. You are they who sit upon our palm. You are the delicate assembly of experience and change. You are the unfolding entropy.
    We greet you on the knife’s-edge of the Balance that you have broken. We seek that which you have taken and sundered. We reach, now, from within that palm, to correct your blind fumbling.
    Summon your counsel. Await our arrival.

    The comms were silent. The snowing sensation had resolved within Tim’s mind but it was still there, a banked presence that he could reach for, and when he did, he heard the message again. His breathing came faster and harder.
    Jason was the first to react.
    “What the fuck?”

    ***

    Or,

    The Justice League has missed something catastrophic and tragic in equal measure.

    Good thing this is just the sort of mystery Red Robin likes to sink his claws into.

    Summary

    “I want to know what you look like when you come undone,” Albedo says.

    Kaeya shudders.

    “Is that so?” he rasps.

    “Yes,” Albedo says. “I want to see what happens when you stop pretending to be invincible.”

    Kaeya laughs. It’s breathless. Unsteady. “Darling, I’ve never been invincible. I’ve just been very, very good at misdirection.”

    “Then don’t misdirect,” Albedo says, fingers drifting again—closer now. Still not touching where Kaeya wants, but God, it’s unbearable. “Be honest.”

    Kaeya tilts his head back. “Honesty is terrifying.”

    “So is desire,” Albedo murmurs. “But you’ve let me have both, haven’t you?”

    His fingers curl. Just slightly. Paint smears over the edge of Kaeya’s hipbone.

    Or, Kaeya agrees to pose for Albedo, but becomes the one painted in gold, in reverence, in oil and longing.

    Summary

    Going broke was never something Hob Gadling had intended to do. In fact, with barely enough money in his account to pay for a hotel and a storage unit, he goes to have a pint with Johanna Constantine, who offers to put him up in the remote and mysterious Dream House, with a long and bloody history. And has been in the Constantine family for centuries, meaning that Johanna has the keys. Hob does not take much convincing. What could go wrong, really?

    ~

    What started out as a Haunting of Hill House AU has now spiraled into so much more, as Hob navigates love, loneliness and his own psyche as he realizes he might not be able to trust his reality.

    Summary

    In a world where strategy wins wars and miracles demand impossible prices, Erin Solstice finds herself in Baleros teaching chess in the Academy. Fraerling-sized, battle-worn, and carrying secrets no one believes, she becomes both a puzzle and a wonder—forcing [Strategists], students, and even the great Niers Astoragon to confront truths beyond their understanding.

    Spoilers up to 10.38 E. I deliberately omitted some characters and changed some of the original plot.

    Summary

    ✨Ambientado antes del Arco de las Olas.✨

    ✨❄️✨

    Zabuza al principio pensó que Haku, sería solo su arma, algo que solo necesita entrenar, sin embargo, no puede evitar una culpabilidad que no quiere nombrar, e intenta
    compensar al muchacho con un gesto que ni sabe si puede lograr; algo que apenas se puede llamar "recompensa".

    Aunque eso signifique tener el estómago revuelto.

    Summary

    Was it being enshrouded by the arms,
    just as broken as his own,
    that had only known to kill –
    but now held him as a holy thing
    to be protected and adored.

    Mayhap the two of them could fill
    each crack in ruptured flesh
    until the strain became a memory
    and blissful embers took its place.

    For weren’t pain and pleasure children
    of the same and sacred womb?

    or: A shin soukoku poem a day to keep the sorrow-inflicting bsd manga spirits away <3
    [preview is from Ch.7 because it's one of my personal favourites, but this whole thing is a mix of prose and verse poetry, in every possible emotion I can think of]
