    Summary

    22 days have passed since embarking on the journey of a lifetime to defeat Dio Brando and save the life of Holly Kujo, mother to your long-time friend. Through tribulations and feelings alike you travel alongside each other, anticipating the final battle for the lives of each other and those you love. Confidence does not guarentee success, however, as life seldom goes as planned.

    Whisked away in a instant from a misty town shrouded in mystery, you are brought to Cairo against your will where you meet evil incarnate himself. Believing you to be the reincarnation of his lover long past, you must engage in a game of his design if you wish you make it out with your life and sanity intact.

    Summary

    In a world where strategy wins wars and miracles demand impossible prices, Erin Solstice finds herself in Baleros teaching chess in the Academy. Fraerling-sized, battle-worn, and carrying secrets no one believes, she becomes both a puzzle and a wonder—forcing [Strategists], students, and even the great Niers Astoragon to confront truths beyond their understanding.

    Spoilers up to 10.38 E. I deliberately omitted some characters and changed some of the original plot.

    Summary

    A psychological thriller about two people who use sex as a weapon, love as leverage, and each other as collateral damage. A story about predation, manipulation, and whether damaged people can learn tenderness - or if some things are too broken to fix.
    Contains: sexual violence, emotional abuse, dubious consent, and two morally grey characters.
    Eye the tags.
    ---

    Isabelle (Bells) Hann thought she had her life perfectly mapped out: a prestigious job at tech consultancy Larssens Ltd, an engagement to wealthy Theodore Watson, and a future built on safety and respectability. But her carefully constructed world begins to unravel around her predatory boss, Jude Larssen - a man whose brilliant mind and dangerous instincts have kept her orbiting him like a moth to flame for three years.

    When Jude manipulates a high-stakes dinner with Japanese conglomerate Yamamoto Industries by claiming he and Bells are engaged, their simmering professional tension explodes into something far more volatile. As Bells becomes entangled in Jude's web of corporate machinations, late-night phone calls, and psychological games, she discovers that the line between manipulation and desire is thinner than she ever imagined.

    Summary

    When her thirteen-year-old son announces he wants to learn how to play chess, successful graphic designer Agatha Harkness expects little more than after-school lessons and a new hobby to keep him busy. What she doesn’t expect is to cross paths with Rio Vidal, self-taught prodigy and future grandmaster, whose brilliance is matched only by her arrogance.
    Drawn into Rio’s orbit, stubborn and haughty Agatha finds herself clashing with the other woman’s sharp wit and unshakable confidence. But as their worlds intertwine, spurred by the quiet intensity of the game, the lines between opposition and attraction begin to blur, both of them waiting for the inevitable checkmate.

    Summary

    Dean smiled, and hesitated at the door. He opened his mouth, but nothing came out, just like last week. Castiel watched him expectantly, but without judgement, ever patient.
    “I… thanks, Cas,” Dean managed, hoping to convey how he felt. Because somehow, he felt that something happened this time, something clicked.
    Castiel smiled, actually smiled with his eyes and mouth and Dean almost swooned like a Victorian lady.
    Fuck he’s so handsome.
    “Any time, Dean. My door is always open.”
    Dean nodded and hurried away. He hoped he didn't seem rude by it. His heart thudded in his chest and he didn't even stop by to say goodbye to Alice.
    What the hell is happening to me?

     

    This is about Dean going to therapy and Cas teaching him chess, because what Dean really needs is a friend he can rely on (and maybe thats what Cas needs too). But Dean feels different around Cas, maybe it was because of the way he listened and looked like he cared, maybe it was the coffee Cas always seemed to get right. Either way, Castiel was one of Deans best… was Deans favorite… Dean… well he really liked his therapist, ok? It’s normal to like your therapist!!
