“Just how large is it?” Jean gasps.
“He is the new uncrowned king of Mondstadt,” Kaeya says. “Almost every knight we have either is loyal or blackmailed by him. Several captains listen exclusively to him, and he even has Varka’s ear. You, Jean, are the only one he does not have blackmail on.”

In the aftermath of Diluc's departure, Kaeya is left to pick up the pieces. With the same skills that allowed him to enter into the Ragnvindr household, he must now fight for the freedom of Mondstadt. The only question is: will he be able to survive what it takes to catch a traitor?

Summary
Gabriel Angelo, of one of New York’s top crime families, is a sharply dressed, pompous man on his way to be the next family head. He’s careful in his steps and a stone-cold killer always looking for ways to take his disowned brother, Luc, and his lot down a peg. His constant obstacle in his way? Beelzebub Prince.
Prince is not that different than Gabriel, always trying to keep power under their thumb. And, much to Gabriel’s chagrin, a snazzy dresser that crosses boundaries that are usually seen as taboo for one once deemed a principessa mafiosa. They are as quick of wit as they are with their gun and care less about pretenses and niceties that are still expected of people of their station. But that seems to be the same of near all of Lucifer Mattina’s clan.
What could make these two work together?
A dark shadow that haunts all mafia families, preying on their most vulnerable. A shadow that haunts both Angelo’s and Prince’s past, more than it has most, leaving a different type of scarring on each.

Summary
Akechi's fingers tug on the hair tie around his ponytail, already falling out after two hours on stage. It falls loose and the strands brush against his cheeks from the wind, his lips around a cigarette and blowing smoke out of the rolled-down car window. They're going over the speed limit on an empty highway, blurs of psychedelic neons framing the distant city in the night.
(or: an endless highway, burnt out cigarettes, and riding shotgun next to kurusu akira.)

Summary
Jason Todd is tired. He’s trying his absolute hardest to take down a seemingly innocent, rich businessman who runs the largest casino in Gotham City. Little to the public’s knowledge, the Penguin retains his wealth by stealing, pillaging and running a ruthless taxing system in rundown, crime ridden areas. However, as per usual, nothing works out his way.
You are a newspaper editor, who’s just attempting to figure out what’s happened to your coworker, an inquisitive journalist, who disappeared three days prior. After the police prove to be no hope at all, you pick up the case yourself, using the last draft article she wrote as a starting point; a work on one Oswald Cobblepot, and how he isn’t what he seems to be.
Your paths cross, and the dynamic between the experienced and the inexperienced is opened in full force.
