Summary
"Cursed by the gods. Pursued by heroes. Forgotten by time."
Medusa, the legendary Gorgon, escapes the ashes of fallen Greece as Perseus' blade nearly cuts its destiny. Although she should have died thousands of years ago, she still lives – in the shadows, in the darkness, among people who no longer believe in monsters.
But the world has not completely forgotten about her.
A mysterious organization tracking down mythical beings finds her and decides to discover the secrets hidden under the stone skin. What they don't know is that they awaken more than just the legend – something that has survived eons, hungry for revenge and freedom.
Will death hesitate this time? -

Summary
Jason clamps down on the panic bubbling at the base of his sternum with a practiced hand and exhales all of his air, intending to settle into a meditative breathing pattern that should help him focus more on his other senses, except-
His breath comes out hot and humid, clouding the space around his mouth and nose and reflecting back on his cheeks, causing his skin to prickle uncomfortably. And when he inhales, it doesn’t quite fill his lungs, the air stale and wet.
It’s recycled air.
Jason involuntarily jerks in place, wobbling back a step.
He counts down five minutes in his head before he starts trying to break himself out – clings to the meager hope of rescue for those 300 agonizing, too-still seconds as he does his best to breathe shallowly and calmly to preserve his air supply. In the end, all it does is make him weaker, make the digging take longer.
Jason’s heart thunders in his chest. Dirt dribbles down onto his face.
OR: When an EMP goes off and Jason's powered-down helmet gets stuck on his head, he realizes a fatal flaw in his design - there's no way for him to breathe inside the helmet without power. Dick and Tim have to resort to desperate measures to save his life.

Summary
Daathrata, the Butcher, had offered Treviso and the Crows a deal. Control - absolute control - over a leader of the Crows in his hand. And no more burning hide-outs, no mass incarceration. The hostage would pay the price for Trevisian transgressions and in turn would be treated well if the peace was upheld.
Everyone had decided Lucanis was more useful being a whipping boy for the city and its Crows. Not a weapon. Some other kind of tool. One that was meant not to injure but to be injured and take it, like a chopping board, a razor strop.
This is me doing horrible things to Lucanis, using the Butcher, because people kept cheering me on. I regret nothing (yet).

Summary
Through all the pain and the anger and the shame, there is some tiny part of Astarion’s brain that is weirdly thrilled to see Cazador fail. Oh, Astarion would cast the amulet off in an instant if he could. It’s pointless. Stupid. Completely unhelpful. Tacky. Dangerous to his health and safety, certainly. All the same, Cazador ordered Astarion to take it off, and Astarion refused. Sure, it wasn’t exactly an intentional refusal, and he got himself brutally tortured for it, but this has been the first time in two hundred years that he has managed to disobey a direct order.
Any glee Astarion might have been feeling about that evaporates when Cazador orders him to crawl back into the tomb.
Astarion finds himself in possession of a cursed amulet that he cannot take off, even by his master’s command. It’s only after he’s sealed away in the tomb for his disobedience that he realizes the damned thing can talk.

Summary
Cere shakes her head again, lowering her hands to her lap and lacing her fingers together. “I’m… not sure. Could be nothing.”
“Cere, if you really think this is a trap –”
“It’s not that,” she says. “It’s – a feeling of foreboding. I’m not sure if it’s this job or something else. Like I said, it might be nothing.” She shoots Cal a ghost of a smile. “Might be Greez’s kath shank.”
“Hey, have I ever given any of you food poisoning?” Greez bustles past them on his way to the navicomputer. “I think not!”
(Middle-aged schoolteachers would probably make terrifying Inquisitors, so the Mantis crew attempts to break a Force-sensitive woman out of prison before the Empire finds out her secret. It ends poorly. They try to pick up the pieces, afterwards... which would be easier if they didn’t need to leave a piece behind.)

ARCHIVIST (STATEMENT)
I nod. “I’ll be super brave, and I’ll look after my friends just like my gege looks after me!” I’m smiling now. It hurts, but I’m smiling.
My gege doesn’t answer right away. He swallows, and if I could see his eyes, I think they’d be far, far away from here. He tells me, “Of course you will. My little radish is gonna fly so high, no one will be able to bring him down.”
I think, as he pulls me up out of the dirt, that I’d much rather stay in the ground with my friends, and the human bones he always tries to sweep away before I can see.-
Statement of Lan Sizhui, regarding the process of growth.

Summary
Charlie and Alastor awaken—if you can call it that—in a warped reflection of 1920s New Orleans. The streets echo with jazz and silence, riddled with shadows that move on their own. Nothing feels real, and that’s because it isn’t. They're caught in a twisted game orchestrated by none other than Vox—his idea of fun laced with cruelty, psychological torment, and godlike manipulation.
Alastor is blind. Charlie is now a voice in his head, sharing his mind and his sight. A demonic echo. A lifeline. A torment. Together, they navigate a realm steeped in religious dread, violent grotesquery, and the suffocating presence of something older and darker than Hell itself.
Inspired by the podcast Malevolent, this is a dark story—expect violence, gore, shattered faith, demonic horror, and deeply cruel intentions. Charlie will come to understand the brutal heart of humanity. Alastor will be forced to reckon with his own monstrosity—and maybe, what it means to change.
Will there be romance? Maybe. But right now, it’s a slow burn through blood, survival, and identity. They just need to keep up with the body count—and stay in human form long enough to escape whatever this twisted version of reality has in store.

Summary
Jason grew up in Crime Alley. Of course he was aware of the meta trafficking rings and what happened to the kids who displayed powers but it was just another shitty thing about Gotham. He hated it, sure but he tended to not think about it too much. However when he woke up that morning it was the only thing he could think of.
He had grown wings. He didn’t want to have wings. There was no way for him to keep the wings hidden. There was only one thing he could do.
Feathers fell to the floor stained red by his blood.
Jason couldn't help but wonder if he really made the right choice.
It was too late anyway. He couldn't go back.Or : What if Jason was a winged meta? How would he react to it? How differently would the Lazarus Pits work for him? How much would this change the way people interact with him? Let’s find out!

Summary
During a walk around town, eight-year-old Rin stumbles upon an injured boy about his age hiding in an alley. Despite Rin’s insistence on taking him home, the boy refuses. Not wanting to leave him alone, Rin instead decides to help the only way he knows how—by mimicking what he’s seen others do to treat injuries. He carefully patches the boy up as best as he can, proud of his work even if he’s just guessing half the time.
Moments later, a group of strange people dressed entirely in black appear. They speak in a foreign language—one Rin doesn’t recognize—but the injured boy understands and responds fluently. The strangers stare at Rin with unreadable expressions. Yet, oddly enough, Rin doesn’t feel afraid. There’s something oddly familiar about them… or maybe about the boy.

Summary
It was pitch black. He was laying on a hard flat surface. It was warm, almost muggy. He couldn’t bend his knees without hitting the roof. His head hurt, a deep throbbing ache separate from the sharp new pain in his nose.
Slowly he reached to his sides. He had a few more inches here than above him, but he hadn’t even fully straightened his elbows before both hands reached more wood. Hesitantly, he pushed himself downwards and the results were the same. Two to three inches above and below his original position he hit another wall of wood.
He was in a box.

Summary
Harvey dropped to his knees and pushed dirt out of the way, reaching for the churning places until he found an arm. He pulled, and a hand punched out of the grave. A second followed. He grabbed both, braced himself against the uneven slope of the hole and pulled.
Lightning lit the scene like a photograph. The face before him was more dirt than skin and wet with rain and blood. The figure was still buried from the waist down. The sky was dark again. By the time Harvey hauled them out of the grave, the thunder boomed. Storm was getting close.
The boy – And Harvey had the horrifying realization it was a boy – coughed and dirt fell from his lips. He sucked in ragged breaths.
“’S’alright, kid. You’re out. You’re safe. We’re gonna getcha some help. Ok? Alright?”
Or, Jason wakes up in his grave, but someone is there to pull him out.
