    Summary

    He never asked for this life – to be thrown from one nightmare into another, to wander from place to place, always looking over his shoulder, never belonging anywhere. When Camp Half-Blood takes him in, it feels like just another cage. But among the demigods, monsters, and gods who meddle from afar, he begins to find something he thought he'd lost forever: light.

    This is the story of healing that doesn't happen overnight. It's about finding family in unexpected places, building trust one scar at a time, and learning to fight not just for survival – but for something worth protecting.

    Summary

    When he moved to Seattle years ago, Lillium wanted to start over. A new city, a new apartment, a new job in a fancy restaurant—a tidy life that had nothing to do with the one he had left behind. Until one night he meets Iris, a part-time worker at the local museum with unsettling dark eyes and glittery stars on his cheeks.

    None of them had expected their life to change tonight. And yet, one single encounter is enough for their long-built order to start crumbling into dust.

    In the end, they’re like every fragment of matter—inherently drawn to chaos.

    Summary

    Hinata was laughing at something Bokuto had said.
    His right hand was slightly covering his mouth.
    His nose was crinkled, his left hand was clutched on his stomach as he laughed. His radiance lighting up their dimly lit kitchen and not even Omi’s scowl at the joke could dim it.

    He was absolutely stunning

    Atsumu wanted to do nothing but jump off the couch he was currently sitting on, run over there, and kiss Shoyo senseless. Feel nothing but the warmth of the sun in his hands and the flames on his lips.

    To be able to cradle the fire that is Hinata Shoyo, to be able to fly close to him and still reach for him even if he falls from the contact.

    “ Tsum Tsum!” Bokuto yelled from kitchen, snapping Atsumu out from his fantasy.

    “ Hm?” Atsumu hummed as he looked at the three

    “ Have you ever been to Miyagi?”

    Summary

    Reality is what it is, until it is not.

    Most see the world as fixed—solid, certain, unchanging. But a rare few perceive beyond the veil, into a hidden dimension where objects pass through walls, and reality itself can be bent by will alone.

    For these gifted individuals, power is both a blessing and a curse. It offers unimaginable freedom — but also unseen dangers, invisible weapons, and the constant risk of corruption.

    Feathers is a quiet unraveling — a collection of short chapters told from both sides of a breaking point.

    Summary

    On the brink of the bustling new city of Rosholt lies a forgotten palisade of abandoned homes, shops and streets that sit mummified after a chemical outbreak in the 70s, leaving the city uninhabitable.

    Over the years however, the place has become a hotspot for urban explorers and crime junkies alike. Whispers of reanimated bodies stalking the dead streets and brutal murders worm their way into your friend's ears and, having nothing to do on your Winter break, you reluctantly agree to go exploring the abandoned city with them.

    What could go wrong, right?

    Summary

    “You and I, we share the same vision of greatness. Yet while you, one day, will bathe and bask in the fruits of our labor, I will merely watch you from far above the horizon’s limits.

    You will ensure our inventions will bend and break and cross the line of what the world thought to be unachievable, I will cheer you on from the heavens; Oh how I wished you could join me in flight."
