    Summary

    In an empire strangled by war, Lady Wu’s beauty and bloodline are her father’s deadliest weapons. Promised in marriage to cement his power, she is expected to smile, obey, and disappear into another man’s shadow. But Wu has no intention of dying as a pawn. In the courts and in the shadows alike, she learns to bend allies, secrets, and blades to her will. The only question is whether she will master the game or become the next piece to be sacrificed

    Summary

    1998 — After moving back to her childhood neighborhood in Eltingville, Staten Island, Marzia Lindberg is reunited with four boys she used to call her best friends. She isn’t the same girl she was when she left—and neither are they.

    2008 — Marzia, now a preschool teacher scraping by paycheck to paycheck, posts a Craigslist ad for a roommate. She doesn’t expect a response from her ex. She definitely doesn’t expect to let him move in. But when Bill Dickey shows up on her doorstep with nothing but a duffle bag and a cocky smile, it’s like the past she buried claws its way back to the surface.

    Their history is bitter. Their chemistry is worse. And pretending they’re just roommates? That might be the biggest lie of all.

    [Bill x OC, First Person, Not Beta-Read, Hopelessly Self Indulgent]

    “Kaleidoscope,” I said.

    'Kalos - beautiful. Eidos - form. Skopeo - the eye that seeks.'

    'The eye that seeks the beautiful shape.'

    I looked straight at him.

    "That is you, Erik. The beautiful shape.”

    He understood.
    But he did not believe me.

    Summary

    En los pasillos de una secundaria de élite, Kim Hongjoong persigue en silencio a Park Seonghwa, el capitán intocable del equipo de vóley. Notas sin firma, fotos ocultas y miradas obsesivas: un onigokko sentimental donde el acosador anhela ser cazado y el oni empieza a disfrutar demasiado la persecución.

    "Por favor, cuidame hasta que oscurezca.
    Por favor, tócame hasta que este de humor."

    Inspirado en "SENTIMENTAL na onigokko" de the GazettE.

    Summary

    Not a conforting fic. Sansa is written with agency throughout.

    In this A Song of Ice and Fire AU, Petyr never sleeps with Lysa. He becomes a peripheral figure in the game of thrones. The Lannisters are successfully purged by Jon Arryn, and Renly enters a political marriage with Sansa. This is a story of bittersweet love, of light and shadow intertwined, of schemes and mysteries, and of memories one can never quite escape. In the end, all that they once claimed—everything fate had never meant for them—is finally returned.

    Most chapters are suitable for readers 13 and up. All explicit content appears in Chapter 19.

    This is an English translation of my Chinese fanfiction "The White Pawn" (白棋手), which is a completed long-fic (110k+ words). Since the original story is already fully completed in Chinese (32 chapters in total), I have plenty of stock! My plan is to update twice a week if I see there are readers following this journey. Your kudos and comments are the best fuel for my translation engine. Let me know if you want to read more!

    (English is not my first language; this translation is assisted by AI and edited by myself. Comments and kudos are my lifeblood in this lonely fandom!)

    Summary

    “Small-town Colorado. My parents. Probably a couple childhood friends who either want to punch me or pitch me on their weed grow-op that’s definitely legal if you squint. All while missing the High Holidays with your family. It'll be a time.”

    --

    An overworked big-city lawyer returns to his hometown for the holidays. Along for the ride is his equally burnt-out — and arguably more competent — wife. All they have to do is clean out his parents’ house, survive a barn dance, and not self-destruct spectacularly.

    A South Park prequel featuring Kyle’s parents in a not-quite Hallmark movie.

    Summary

    After getting separated from the gang in a eerily shifting cemetery, Velma finds herself alone and vulnerable. A horrifying Entity rises from a fresh grave—a bloated, intelligent corpse with a singular, monstrous desire. Using hypnotic, chemical fluids to cloud her mind and amplify sensation, it claims her in the cold, damp earth of its own excavation. What begins as terror melts into a drugged, forced compliance, leaving Velma to endure a visceral and degrading "courtship." As the chemical fog recedes, the full weight of her violation and the true horror of her new reality begin to dawn.

    Jimin thought he’d found his way out, an easy job, a beautiful house, a man with a warm smile and three children who needed care.

    He should’ve asked why the house was always so quiet.

    He should’ve known better than to mistake being wanted for being safe.

    Summary

    Everyone knows the story of Loona, the hellhound who was adopted by the imp Blitzo to work as a receptionist for his contract killing business within the Pride Ring of Hell, not to mention the imp’s vain attempts at fawning over her with his unwarranted affection in hopes of gaining respect as her new father.

    But what if one were to tell you that Blitzo was not the only one who had met Loona at the adoption center, from where she was found?

    What if, before him, there was another?

    A strange and unusual man who had once visited the young hellhound woman and had tried to cut her a deal for a chance at his own unique flavor of freedom.

    It has been an encounter that Loona has kept secret throughout her formative years, with a being of such infamous reputation and dangerous power that it has haunted her from the shadows ever since, only to make their presence known on occasion at such trying times in her life.

    This is the untold story of Loona, and her many escapades, with the mysterious ghost in the black and white suit.

    But whatever you do…

    Don't say his name three times.
