    Summary

    Princess Zinnia wishes to save her kingdom. But how far is she willing to go, when all she has to offer is herself?

    ---

    In the traditional "Beauty and the Beast" archetype, mimicked and adapted through a thousand different works, there is a pivotal moment when the damsel makes a deliberate choice to become the monster's prisoner, not knowing what that would mean. This story evolved from an attempt to explore that particular moment, to peel back the layers and reveal the fears and desires underneath.

    Summary

    Xiao'Beiye did *not* sign up for this.

    No.

    Absolutely not.

    Death was bad enough, but having to endure a second life on top of it?

    Rejected. Blocked. She'd like a refund now please.

    Worst yet...she was in some version of a historically inaccurate and anachronistic Ancient Fantasy China in the middle of what might-have-been an assassination attempt. One that was probably going to end with her either dead or married off far too young. The only light in her particular tunnel?

    Running away to Cang Qiong Mountain Sect, where they didn't care about your social status or wealth, only your potential as a cultivator. The only problem was, she *knew* that name. She knew what it implied about the future of the world around her.

    And she was *not* going to stand for it.

    No matter what she had to do - or who she had to piss off - to save the decent kid she met at the disciple selections, and his slave-brother, from a fate that could turn out far worse than death.

    Summary

    Clarke Griffin and her crew are the first to find land west, across the Big Sea.

    What she doesn't expect to find is another civilization, with a religion so different to her own and a society that makes her skin shiver.

    In that society, Lexa is a monster. When her skin tears open, she bleeds black, and what else could that be but sinful?

    Not everything is always truthful, though. Sometimes monsters are just humans other humans are afraid of.

    And sometimes, monsters set everything aflame. Sometimes, when you cage them in too much, they tear everything apart.

    How much damage could a group of delinquents and a few social outcasts possibly do?

    (The world will burn in their wake until they will forge a new one. And their hearts will too, but perhaps that's a sweeter kind of damage.)

    or the one in which Clarke and Lexa accidentally start a revolution

    Summary

    As a gay Mormon, Kurt Hummel has decided to go the rest of his life without falling in love. But toward the end of his two years as a missionary in Germany, Elder Anderson moves into his apartment—and Kurt's best-laid plans fall apart.

    (75 chapters is an estimate. It's not necessary to have read the previous works in this series to follow this one, or to read the works in order. I try to make most things understandable from context. You can start this and, if you like it, hop back to the earlier stories as you wait for new chapters to post.)

    Summary

    Gyutaro and Daki have always trusted each other, despite no human memories, despite bickering. The siblings' effortless supremacy is challenged suddenly. Then Gyutaro glimpses something that could be all his own--the fresh independence makes it hard to pick Daki's priorities or his own.
    Abe Kazuko exists in a drunken stasis; being a courtesan was a gift and second chance she never asked for. Everything changes when Tsubakihime Oiran seems to see something in her others do not.
    Hashimoto Tetsuya, tsuguko of the Mist Hashira Ishikawa Nobutoshi, still has to learn the secret talents that support the Demon Corps; he's sent to the front lines to support an unconventional siege tactic on one of Muzan's powerful officers, supervised by the infamously sadistic Yasumoto Hinata, whose experience is wasted on self-interest and an insatiable hunger for demonology. Tetsuya senses there's more to the pariah than an addiction. Destructive and devoted, Hinata must decide between their fraternal bonds and their fatal agenda.
    As a secret war wages, loyalties are tested, vulnerabilities are shed, and love is unconditional.

    Summary

    Dystopian tale inspired by The Handmaid's Tale and Star Wars. With a fertility crisis around the globe and political leaders doing nothing to stop it, a political fringe group mounts a coup and seizes control of the US by force. Single, fertile women are rounded up to serve as either wives or surrogates.

     

    Fear gripped Rey as she rushed to her window and looked out onto the downtown Seattle city streets already filled with people heading to the march. Suddenly, a crimson fire ball erupted along the parade route by the Seattle City Hall and Municipal Court buildings. Rey felt the blast slam into her window, rattling the glass, as she stepped back in shock. The fire ball mushroomed in size and morphed into a huge black cloud rising several stories high and more than a city block wide. Craning her neck, she observed glass from less protected windows littering near-by streets.

    As she watched the black cloud engulf several streets as it rolled downhill to the Seattle waterfront, activity several docks away from the black cloud caught her eye. Multiple black military looking HUMVEE-like vehicles left the docks and headed up Madison, Marion, and Columbia into the downtown core.

    Summary

    A young couple on vacation attracts the attention of a Nazi doctor, who wants to exploit them for his latest project. Imprisoned in a hostile world of control and deception, they must find a way to stay alive, or at least to keep their hopes alive. Can any goodness be found in such an unholy place?

    Gently unwrapping the fabric package revealed a smooth obsidian stone. It was larger than his fist and had light markings that encircled it. A gift from the Führer, it had been in his custody for forty years at least.

    Now, as he stared at its smooth reflective surface, he felt that it had been fated to come into his care. A man such as himself who made vampiric monsters, discovered ways to cheat death, and worked alongside the likes of magical sharpshooters, witches, and ancient werewolves could hardly have much more of a mark to leave on the world. But Dok knew that for all the days behind him, the future was still infinite with possibility.

    Setting the stone down carefully onto the wooden floor, he grabbed the sample cup and stood to his full height.

    Holding the water out at arm’s length, he slowly tipped the cup.

    Summary

    This is the story we were not supposed to hear. Medusa was a young woman who led Poseidon into Athena's temple, she was punished. She doesn't get a happy ending, right?

    Maybe Medusa was the story created to protect the victim of a crime. Maybe there is only so much you can do against a male god, so hiding the true victim, telling the story of her pain with a new name, will protect her. Jimin was a young acolyte in Athena's temple and she said no. But he didn't hear. When faced with punishment she calls out for Athena, who decides to help protect the young girl from a world built against her. She spins the tale of Medusa to scare off mortals and sends Jimin to a safe place.

    OR

    Jimin is Medusa, but not really, Medusa is a made up story so no-one comes after her. She lives in a cave in the forest where she meets Namjoon, Yoongi, Seokjin, Taehyung, Hoseok, and Jungkook. She has to learn how to live for herself, and become more than the monster they tell stories of. Athena and Artemis are like supportive aunts, they feel oppressed by male gods and secretly do what they can for hurt women in Greece.
