    Summary

    Alastor, a naiad rather fond of venturing into the woods, is caught slaying a deer favoured by Artemis. His father is sent to consult an oracle, to determine appropriate punishment. On his return, he exiles Alastor to the mountains – where his real punishment, his monstrous, fated spouse-to-be, will come find him at nightfall.

    Alastor goes as bidden, and rapidly discovers that whatever monstrous traits his promised one may have, he may not lay his eyes upon. His fiance treats him well, all things considered, appearing in the evening to keep Alastor company at night, and vanishing at dawn. He only asks for one thing in return: that Alastor never seek to see him.

    An Eros (Greek: Love) and Psyche (Ancient Greek: Soul) retelling.

    Summary

    Universo sobrenatural alternativo sem individualidades.

    Todos conhecemos aquela velha lenda do cupido: um anjo fofinho que faz casais se apaixonarem com tiros de suas flechas encantadas, mas a verdade é que a história pode ser um pouquinho diferente...

    O cupido? Um demônio sexual explosivo que odeia sua função, há muito deixou de acreditar no amor e ainda perdeu as esperanças nos humanos; o problema? Carrega uma maldição que só pode ser impedida por sua alma gêmea: um humano gentil e carinhoso, protótipo de anjo na Terra que poderá mudar a visão pessimista desse íncubo ardiloso.

    O que será do futuro dessa entidade semi imortal e da alma humana a quem está acorrentado por ironia do destino?

    Summary

    “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune is dangerous only once he learns how to weaponize it.”

    When the naive, awkward daughter of a barber-surgeon strikes an unlikely friendship with the notoriously disagreeable Lord Beckett during her time aboard the HMS Endeavour, her tale darkens as she’s suddenly drawn deeper into his world of ambition and betrayal.

    **

    Starts off pre TCBP, and ends AWE.
    Follows the events from The Price of Freedom with an eventual, adult-oriented twist.
    Partial Cutler Beckett backstory, partial coming-of-age trope for an 18th century woman.
    A healthy dose of Pride & Prejudice references.

    Summary

    “Who’s your favorite god?”

    Mira swallows, savoring the broth on her lips. She doesn’t miss the way Zoey’s eyes flit down, and she has to bite her lip to keep from smirking. Zoey’s ears go red.

    “Honestly? I’m not that familiar with them,” she digs back in, “Who’s yours?”

    Zoey places the plastic cup on the ground, chopsticks set across the lid.

    “It’s a little cheesy, but uh,” she huffs, “Rumi…”

    “She’s the, uh,” Mira taps the lid of her own cup with her chopsticks, “The angel one, right? With the gak-gung?”

    Zoey nods eagerly, looking a little surprised.

    “She’s the goddess of love, but also a hunter and protector deity.” It comes out matter-of-factly.

    Mira slurps and swallows.

    “Hm. Greedy. I thought gods only embodied one thing.”

    “Well, when people talk about her they usually only focus on the whole love factor - same with the other gods, to be honest - but she’s also a guardian who hunts down demons and keeps the city safe.”

    “Whole lotta good she’s done,” Mira swallows the last of her noodles, setting her cup down next to Zoey’s, “How’s your eye, by the way?” She snarks.

    Summary

    Supernatural no quirks AU.

    We all know that same old legend of the cupid: a cute little angel that makes couples fall in love with enchanted arrow shots through their hearts, but the truth is that the story could be a little bit different…

    The cupid? An explosive sex demon who hates his duty, has long stopped believing in love and even lost hope in humans; the problem? He carries a curse that can only be retained by his soulmate: a kind and caring human, prototype of angel on Earth who can change the pessimistic vision of this cunning incubus. What does the future hold for this semi-immortal entity and the human soul to which he’s chained to by the irony of fate?

    Summary

    "You wake up from a ten–year coma in a post–war world, with no memory of who you truly are or what happened to you. To make matters worse, you are not just anyone, your body carries at least eight different souls. A phenomenon unheard of in a world where a person’s life force depends on the power their soul holds. Unfortunately, this makes you a prime target for Soul Hunters, monsters created and engineered to steal souls, granting longer, more prosperous lives to those who designed them. Rescued by three people determined to destroy every plan involving the annihilation of souls, you join their cause, driven as much by the fight as by the hope of uncovering your past. The team of four soon grows into twelve. What you never expected was that the new members would be people from your forgotten life. Are you ready to face the consequences? Can you survive in this new world?"

    [...]

    A sacrifice must be made…
