Summary
“Quill!” You call him again, voice sharply spiked with worry. Your son stops an inch away from his prize in a whole-body flinch, shocked by the loud register of his name, and turns to look at you with wide eyes. As he pivots the ground beneath his foot squelches under the pressure and he slips. His foot comes out from underneath him, flying forward in a kick, and he flails backward. He falls with a gasp and a splash, ripping a cry of alarm from your throat.
This story follows you and your child as you explore the Underground and try to make a comfortable life down there, while also struggling with the fear and anxiety of being discovered as a human. You struggle with learning a culture while pretending to be part of it, learning to trust, and slowly come to terms with losing your surface life.

Summary
when the monsters finally were freed from the underground, the humans were outraged, though that was to be expected, humans tend to be afraid and disgusted by things the don't understand, and they didn't know the whole story, And the monsters were wary and cold towards humans due to this.
therefore, the tension between humans and monster remained at a constant high.
Y/N was a human who wanted to understand. At first they were wary of monsters, they didn't hate them, they knew that at a lot of the things humans say about them are probably wrong, but they never really knew or not, so they were overly anxious around them, especially with a SOUL defect already making them anxious. until an event with a monster makes it clear to them that human bias is true sin, and that it was time to be open their mind and change.

Summary
You’ve been dating Vander for two months, and everything is perfect—at least, it should be. He has perfect manners, a perfect friend group, even the perfect dog. Your friends promise you that the strange feeling that something is “off” is leftover trauma from your past relationships, and once you get used to getting treated right, it will fade away.
Then you meet his brother.
Silco is everything Vander is not. He’s particular, moody, and at times even petulant, and his troubled past gave him a taste for self-destructive habits he can’t quite seem to shake. You know getting closer is a bad idea, but you can’t help yourself, and soon you find yourself towing the same strange line as everyone else in Vander’s life: holding your breath, pretending that everything is perfectly fine, knowing that this wonderful lie you have created together could come crashing down at any moment.

Summary
There is nothing certain in life but death and taxes.
As such, you live in a reality where the Norse gods are real and live among men on Earth, and you are a depression and anxiety survivor at the very end of her rope. You summon Loki, the God of Death himself, and parlay with him to reap your soul, as you feel you have no reason to live anymore and would rather serve at his side in the afterlife. Loki meets you and is both intrigued and horrified by your request. Instead of agreeing to kill you, he makes a wager with you: if he can convince you through debate that life is worth living by sunrise, then he will not kill you and you will never commit suicide on your own for the rest of your life. But if he can't convince you by sunrise, then he will fulfill your request and end your life for good. Loki/Reader AU.

Gotham isn't made for the faint hearted, and certainly isnt for the unwilling so having three+ villains at your doorstep isn't easy to brush off. One too many coincidences may not add up.

Summary
Your roommate suggested it. Saw a sign asking for help. You needed a job, they needed techs. Problem settled, right?
Well, yes. New problem: You didn't sign up to be the daycare's personal technician, which, mind you, was filled with children. You can't really do kids.
It doesn't seem like the Daycare Attendant likes you either- which happens to be a liiiitle bit of a problem, because you'd like it if your robot coworkers liked you. Particularly the ones that you're in charge of. Preferably not in the most passive aggressive manner he can get away with. Preferably. -

Summary
With no memories and nowhere to go, you’ve been shuffled from universe to universe as the secret healer of the guardian of positivity for a decade. But years without a place to truly call home would leave anyone a little stir-crazy. So when you find a knife-wielding skeleton in the woods on your morning jog, you go against your better judgement and heal him. At least he’s nice enough to pay you back with outings that are starting to feel a whole lot like dates.
Too bad that skeleton is actually one of the enemies you’re supposed to be fighting against, and your existence is about to become not-so-secret to his boss.

Summary
You drown in rushing water, and show up in Teyvat. You are present, the “traveler” is not. You wonder if this means you must take their place, but an average human from Earth can not match up to whatever the traveler is. Not in strength, not in kindness, not in geniality. It takes crawling out of a hole of self-hatred and shaking hands to come to the conclusion that you were never meant to take on the destiny of a hero.
(A mouse can’t ever put a bell on a cat’s collar; Sometimes the most favorable task isn’t achievable, no matter how much you beg to be different.)
The fic is set to take place during the entire first main quest in Mondstadt, and eventually straight to Fontaine, if I can write it up to that point. it might be long enough for that section to be an entirely different fic.

Summary
I hate that you can't separate the whole work's summary from the first chapter's summary (unless you can and I'm just dumb), so here are them both:
Main summary: A young girl who is offered an easy out from the life she despises, soon comes to regret her decision. All that glitters is not gold, it seems, and not everyone can be trusted.
Chapter one summary:
(In which the author is bad at coming up with summaries, so she jumps on the bandwagon of using dictionary entries about the chapter titles instead).noun
a strong feeling that something is about to happen, especially something unpleasant.Rated T for harsh language (But not curse words. Like saying pissed off, crappy, hell and the like), blood and violence (but no gore), and dark themes (abuse, PTSD, anxiety, depression, bullying). I do my best to keep it mostly clean for the kids.
