Summary
After a school field trip which can only be described as a shambles causes Principal Weems to lose her perfectly curated poise and elegance in public, Wednesday thinks of another way to annoy her 'insufferable' Principal.
It took 10 minutes to convince Enid to upgrade her school blog to an online school newspaper, "Enid, this is the perfect way to start your career in journalism." And, another three hours to establish the rules:
1. Enid cannot write in her 'true voice'. All articles will contain proper grammar and emojis are prohibited
2. Articles will only be published if eye witnesses are willing to go on record i.e., interviews and quotes. Even if some of them are not aware they are doing it.
3. Olivia Weems will feature on the front page of every publication.Series

Summary
In a society gilded with manners and marbled halls, two siblings crafted of essence and machinery must learn to play roles they were never made for.
Carlo is earnest and thoughtful, struggling to make sense of gentleman’s clubs, flirtation, and the weight of a legacy he never asked for. Angelina moves through ballrooms and teas with sharp eyes and a sharper wit but every curtsy hides a mechanical truth. Their creator, Geppetto, vowed to be a better father, but finds himself just as lost as his children in the maze of social expectations, eligible matches, and whispered judgments.
But beneath the silks and powdered masks, something stirs.
Puppets are beginning to move without strings. Whispers of machines acting on their own spread like smoke. A glint in the eyes of street marionettes. The snap of thread in the dead of night.
The world is changing and the Geppetto twins might be all that stands between order and chaos. But can they survive together as their own hearts ache for each other or will the world tear them apart?

Summary
”You know, I thought you’re just a simple man. A smug, arrogant, cocky man. Like all of the men are,” she pointed the gun directly on his chest. “But now, as I know your little secret, I decided to spit it out to the police, Kira.”
His eyes twitched. “Don’t you dare!”
”But why? I already have your money in a very secure place. I’ll report you, I’ll be rich, you’ll be in prison. Simple, very simple. Or,” she trailed the gun down on his chest, stopping on his crotch. “I can deprive you from your manhood forever.”

Her essence whispers to the dark, and the dark whispers back;

Summary
A sapphic regency romance of silk, scandal, and the slow undoing of everything proper.
When Delilah Everest is sent to spend the season with her terrifying aunt, she expects boredom, bad tea, and the slow suffocation of polite society. What she doesn't expect is to be ogled by the king, warned by the queen, and then completely undone by the wrong woman.
Duchess Agatha Fotherington-widowed, dangerously beautiful, and utterly above reproach-should be the picture of restraint.
Instead, she moves through the world like temptation in silk-every glance a touch, every word a promise. She looks at Delilah the way a starving woman looks at something she isn't meant to taste.What begins as a glance across a ballroom turns into stolen touches in candlelit corridors, whispered confessions in the dark, and a secret that could ruin them both.
In a world where women are meant to be quiet, Delilah learns what happens when desire refuses to behave.

Summary
Twelve girls from popular girl groups, including IVE Leeseo are invited to a masquerade party. Although they were all invited by Yeji, their host never shows up. It turns out she has been kidnapped by one of the party goers. Can you figure out who each girl is, each chapter is full of clues? And can you figure out who kidnapped Yeji?
IVE is the only tag I've included because having tags will spoil the story. Even after the story is complete, I won't add tags because the story will be spoiled for new readers. It will reduce the number of 'eyes' we get, but it is what it is.
Story officially started Oct 4, 2025.
While best to read the other stories leading up to this, particularly those with Gaeul and Wony - this one is as close as you will get to a 'stand alone' read in this series. Feel free to enjoy it on its own!

Summary
“What are you doing?” the woman asked, breath catching.
“Still being bold,” Vi said, her grin returning as her fingers closed around the woman’s hand. “And hoping you’ll remember tonight… in case it is just a passing moment and I don’t ever see you again.”
The woman opened her mouth, but no words came. Vi noticed the parts of her features not obstructed from the mask looked softer.
Vi leaned in slightly, close, but not yet touching. “Unless you don’t want to see each other again.”
The woman’s fingers flexed gently against Vi’s, holding her stare.
“I wouldn’t dream of that,” she said softly.
OR-
Vi and Cait meet at a masquerade, never learning each other's identities. But what happens when they meet again without the masks? Familiar details making them wonder, but them both convincing themselves it can’t be true.

Summary
Instant. The regret of accepting the contract had been instant.
But Crows don't back out of contracts, and Azzurra “Rook” de Riva was particularly stubborn for a Crow.
Now she stood in front of the pantry door, procrastinating the hell out of the inevitable conversation.
As luck would have it, the door opened right as she finally went to knock…leading to her fist gently smacking Lucanis in the face.When Rook accepts a particularly risqué contract, she did not think about the implications. She should have thought about the implications.
aka. the 'Lucanis and Rook fake dating at an enemy orgy' one-shot absolutely nobody asked for... but my brain cooked up anyway.
Just crows being crows, I guess. -

Summary
She glanced at herself in the hall mirror and adjusted her mask again. “This seems kinda dumb,” she said, “We’re all gonna know who everyone is. I mean, Jacinthe’s hair is so striking, it’s not gonna matter how much of her face she covers up, everyone will know it’s her.”
When Jacinthe throws a Masquerade ball, Harmony finds herself caught in a triangle she never expected. Somehow in all the chaos of Lumiose city, she had unknowingly gained the affections of two of her friends. A night that was supposed to just be spent trying not to trip over her own feet quickly turns into something straight out of a cheesy romance movie.
Set after the plot of Legends ZA. -
