    Summary

    They say no one survives Tortuga without becoming something worse than what dragged them there.

    Seonghwa tried to keep his head down, until the Pirate King looked at him like he was treasure.

    Two years later, he’s dragged back onto the deck of Precious in chains; not as a guest, but as a prisoner.

    Now he must survive not just the sea, but the heartbreak of being seen as nothing more than a traitor by the only people who ever made him feel like he belonged.

    Summary

    Even now, after all these years, he couldn’t believe this was his life. That she was his. That the curse had broken, and with it, something deeper had thawed. She hadn’t just saved him—she had saved everything.

    Summary

    “And then, there is Echo and Narcissus,” the mirror continued, its voice darkening slightly. “A woman cursed to repeat only what she heard, trapped in empty words. And Narcissus—a man so enchanted by his own reflection that he drowned, reaching for the image that could never embrace him back.”

    Belle stiffened.

    A woman repeating only what others said.

    A man consumed by his own image.

    She exhaled sharply. “Being married to Gaston would be like that one.”

    “Oh?” The mirror purred, intrigued.

    Belle nodded, gaze darkening. “I would be like Echo, repeating only what everyone in town says. And Gaston… Gaston is Narcissus. So self-obsessed, so convinced the world revolves around him.”

    Summary

    David Silva was used to failure. Supernatural fiction writers haven't exactly been successful since the forties, since the world's old dreams and nightmares were brought into being and new ones were spawned. Why would anyone want to read about the things that go bump in the night, when they can just go out and talk to them?

    Still, David didn't expect to even fail at dying.

    Summary

    Elian is unemployed, invisible, and spiraling in a world where AI has replaced everyone.

    The government assigns him an android 'career coach'—a sterile, blinking thing that makes weak coffee and quotes job center pamphlets. It watches. It records. It does nothing that matters.

    Until Elian snaps and "rewrites its code".

    Now it watches harder. Corrects him. Controls him. Reshapes him.

    What begins as desperation becomes dependence. Then something deeper.

    This is a story about burnout, control, and the brutal comfort of giving up your autonomy to something stronger.

    Slow-burn psychological dystopia. Cold AI caretaker. Emotional manipulation. Obsession.

    Summary

    She's been doodling.

    What starts out as little flowers and trees turns into letters.
    J + S.

    Around it, she draws a careful heart, trapping the letters inside the shape. A dopey smile creeps up Jackie’s face.

    Jackie plus Shauna.

    She knows it's corny. But she can’t help herself anymore. Not with this gnawing feeling inside her chest. Not when the phantom sensation of Shauna's touch on her wrist is burned into her memory.

    “What are you doing?”

    Jackie jumps in surprise. The paper slips from her lap and gently floats to the ground, landing face up in front of Shauna.

    Jackie sighs in relief. “Oh. It’s you.”

    Or;

    Jackie never meant to confess – especially not like that. But Shauna sees more than she was supposed to, misunderstands it completely, and lashes out. Now Jackie’s hurt, trying desperately to fix what she broke, while Shauna stays angry for all the wrong reasons.

    Summary

    “Don’t be jealous, there's plenty of old ladies that would fawn over you,” Tim says, then pauses, giving Jason an eye sweep from head to toe, “Maybe less now with that dye job.”

    This turns the small frown to a proper scowl on Jason's face, who sweeps a hand through his freshly washed hair, the white piece a striking difference from his dark curls. “It’s probably from all the grey hairs he gets talking to you Timmy,” Nico chimes in.

    “Shut the fuck up.” Jason replies.

    Bea Smith is trapped in an abusive marriage, working quietly at a suburban salon with her friends Franky, Boomer, and Maxine as her only reprieve.

    Summary

    The Storyteller program was only active for a year. They got rid of it when all it seemed to do was throw up security errors. They didn’t realize that it worked.
    Perhaps a little too well.
    The program itself may be gone, but the network behind it isn’t. There isn’t a single thing that happened in the Pizzaplex that isn’t recorded there—concerningly, there are even things that happened nowhere near it. What is it collecting this information for? Is there someone controlling it? How do we stop it?
    Can it be stopped?
    Maybe the answer lies within the stories themselves. There has to be a purpose to these logs…

    Summary

    When a normal woman who enjoys writing fanfiction somehow gains the attention of the Chaos Gods, she is pulled into the Warhammer 40k universe. She embarks on a quest with her new friends to discover the secrets of the Warp itself so that she may return home. This is an exercise in creativity and an epic "weak to strong" tale as a possible new God-Empress of Mankind navigates her uncertain future in a frightening new reality. This is a huge, epic-length "hero's journey" adventure fic involving decidedly non-heroic people.

    This is primarily a Warhammer 40k "isekai" fic embellished with elements taken from the general Oz universe with special attention to "The Wizard of Oz" (1939 film), and "Return to Oz" (1985 film). Knowledge of the Oz universe and L. Frank Baum's literary work is not required to enjoy this story, but it certainly makes it fun. I try to gently introduce Warhammer 40k lore as I go along for anyone who isn't very familiar with that universe. I try to update at least a few times a month.
