Summary
→ it was never supposed to be like this.
It started with a lie, and somehow it never stopped. Now the quiet one keeps his feelings untold, while the other smiles like none of it bothers him. They have to commit to the part, but pretending gets harder with every shared glance, every almost-touch. And love, real love, was never part of the plan.

Summary
You’ve been working on the side, no not like that, but as Fang: New York’s current and only spider woman. Taking to doing your hero work in secret, you don’t usually have time to even slow down and breathe, let alone smell any roses. But now, you’ve been gaining quite the reputation, and after a run in during your ‘regular life’ exposes a little too much of your abilities to the general public, the attention you catch next is that of the Avengers, and two terribly attractive redheads with them.

Summary
She’d had mere moments, where Autolycus had had days. And he’d been there in the moment in the spirit realm when Xena kissed her, and time had stopped and the earth had fallen away. He’d felt that, from Xena’s side.
Why did you kiss me? The question had been burning loops in her mind ever since.
----
A slow-burn romantic semi-comedy about two useless friends sharing a kiss and then panicking about it for weeks.
Begins with a prologue set the morning after episode s2:e13, The Quest, just before the start of A Necessary Evil. The rest of the story then begins about a month later (but definitely before ADITL).
(I’m using the canonical ‘kiss’ in The Quest as a starting point, but messing with canon a wee bit, since Aphrodite gets involved and technically we hadn’t met her in the Xenaverse yet. But she wrote herself into my story, I was hardly going to say no.)

Summary
Harry Potter thought post-war life would be boring.
Instead, he ends up a single dad hiding out in Grimmauld Place, armed with nothing but a baby, some bad coping skills, and a truly cursed house.
When Teddy’s accidental magic flings them both back to 1979, Harry has questions. Like:How does one babysit a shapeshifting toddler in the 70s?
And importantly — is it illegal to kill a soon to be dead Death Eater before they canonically die?
(Asking for a friend.)Time is broken. Harry’s patience is broken. Teddy’s diapers are also probably broken.
This can only end well. -

Summary
Some connections start with sarcasm. Others come with a side of sugar and a dead fridge.
Crowley’s broke, bitter, and one oat milk meltdown away from a full existential spiral. Working as a barista in a too-bright café and living off instant noodles, he doesn’t expect much from life — certainly not romance. So when his friends drunkenly sign him up for a sugar dating app as a joke, he’s reminded of it when a message arrives. Thoughtful. Witty. Disarmingly kind.
And most likely not from his idiot friends?Enter angel_investor — mysterious, patient, infuriatingly sincere. What begins as a joke reply turns into a thread of conversation Crowley doesn’t want to cut. One that feels dangerously close to real.
As messages become moments and trust grows in between snark and sincerity, Crowley is faced with the most terrifying possibility of all:
That someone might actually see him — and stay.Updates Thursdays & Sundays.

Summary
Soft zombie apocalypse · slow-burn romance · found comfort in a ruined world
She survived alone long enough to stop hoping for more. Hidden deep in the woods, her safe house keeps the worst out—until a masked soldier named König stumbles in, wounded and wordless, with shadows in his eyes and nowhere else to go.
What starts as uneasy silence slowly becomes something else. Quiet days. Shared food. Repairs. Warmth. But the world beyond hasn’t changed..
This is a gentle story told through survival, healing, and the slow build of trust. König is steady hands and careful eyes. She is stubborn resilience and soft edges. Together, they find the fragile rhythm of what life could be—if they let themselves have it.
Because they’re both still alive. And maybe that means something.
A fluffy, self serving, zombie apocalypse story because it's all i can think about :)

Summary
Her archives are expansive. Well-tended to, well-labeled, well-trodden, but closed to the public. A reflection not of her wants—Samira does not deal in wants but in the things she has mastered. The wants she has extinguished through artful, skillful practice.
Desire deferred is desire destroyed.

Summary
Vance plays his guitar like it’s the only language he speaks—loud, reckless, and honest. Willem plays his violin like he’s afraid silence might eat him alive. In each other, they find an echo of something familiar.
As rehearsals give way to shared walks, quiet conversations, and lingering touches, they’re still not sure what this is—but it’s starting to feel like something worth holding onto.
A story about music, healing, and finding the right person even though you might not be ready.
