Summary
In 1994, the guy from Furvana shot himself, and nine-year-old Nick Wilde (who was Very Grown Up, thanks) was no longer a fashion disaster, but proceeded to spend a lifetime cultivating the same smug misery that exponentially raised the price of flannel. 25 years later, he finally understands that the only difference between self-pity and self-aggrandizement is the spelling.
That's okay, though, because he's happy.

Summary
Ramattra meets a lady whose prejudice against omnics is palpable. A life-altering experience fixes that. (A very removed sequel from the first work “Enraptured”)
This is VERY slow burn. Like, the romantic stuff happens 10k words in. I’ve never written enemies to lovers before and wanted to do it justice (I.e., make the transition as believable as possible while sticking to the canon characterizations). Just like its predecessor, the love interest is “she;” a name is never specified. However, I based her off Junker Queen (rather than making her more neutral like in the first fic), so I’m sorry if that breaks the immersion. I just love that ship and want to write more!!

Summary
You welcomed them into your home in good faith, trusting the mutual need would serve you all well. The world had changed quickly—an outbreak, because of course it was, life-altering, era-defining catastrophe it had been. And you were just too good at ignoring the signs until it was slammed in your face.
To think you've had to hide from the monsters out there, just to be living with your own at home.

141 adapts to the hand they're given, shifting ethics
,and spliced DNA,reshaping their morals only as much as the size of their bite and length of their bones. And they might've grown quite a bit.

Nice story. :)
In this story, Jasper's discovery that a vampire can be a nice or kind person after meeting Eugene with Alice seems to reflect Jasper's journey to self-acceptance and healing. His journey for self-acceptance and healing reminds of a similar journey Carlisle underwent after his turning during the 1660s and 1700s (after some failed suicide attempts and his discovery about animal blood, Carlisle gave up his biases and pre-conceived notions and finally accepted himself for who and what he was and embraced the fact that non-humans don't have to be evil and that it's not only humans who can be good and do good, that not all vampires are evil, that some humans are evil, and that there are good and evil people in every species; humans, vampires, werevolves, etc, no species is better or worse than any other, people shouldn't be judged by their species but by the content of their character, he's using his enhanced senses to save lives as a doctor).
Paradigm shift: A paradigm shift is a change from one way of thinking to another, and can apply to anything on earth – your job, your married life, your relationships, your home, your surroundings, and more importantly, your health. The signs are all around us. And what is with you, around you, within you is the same most of the time. What, however, changes is your attitude to all these. Your positive or negative, and good or bad, attitudes define the way things appear to you. It's when you attitude to something or your perception of something changes.
