    Summary

    In 84 AD, the Roman army defeated the Celtic Caledonian people in a bloody battle; the survivors, torn apart by trauma, were forcibly taken to Rome as slaves. Among them was Rey, a young Caledonian woman who, filled with anger and resentment, was sold as a gladiator for the games in the arena. Meanwhile, in Rome, Emperor Snoke has adopted the young Ben Solo, now Kylo Ren, as his heir. Seduced by the evil usurper, Kylo Ren has turned his back on his family and his past. But when the Caledonian gladiator, the petite rebel seeking revenge, steps onto the sand of the arena, the balance of the Empire seems destined to be upset forever.

    REYLO AU! Gladiator, roman history AU.

    Summary

    This is a oneshot compilation consisting of Genshin Impact characters being introduced to the wonderful world of Greek mythology! Courtesy of the Hellenes (my OCs)

    This work's content is requests only, meaning I will not be posting a chapter unless a scenario featuring Genshin Impact characters is specifically requested.

    Rules for acceptance:

    At least two Genshin Impact characters are involved
    No smut
    And finally, no angst

    This is a non-canon work, compared to the rest of the works in this series, as it is thought up scenarios unrelated to the main story.

    Summary

    Two repressed men hash out the dramas of a provincial people on the edge of a dying empire.

    Excerpt:
    There he was, at age eleven, shining with a misplaced belief that his true life was about to begin; at age fifteen, on a mad quest to grasp all the world’s knowledge and recklessly running experiments in unused classrooms; at age seventeen, again mistaken; at age twenty-two, suicidal and unequipped to lead a wounded and heaving Slytherin House; at age twenty-seven, catatonic; at age thirty-one, shocked into consciousness by the presence of Lily’s son and finding himself refereeing Quidditch matches. The life he envisioned as he laid eyes upon Hogwarts for the first time never arrived, and so long as he was contained by the castle, it never could. As quietly as his mother before him, Severus Snape ceased to allow himself to dream.

    Summary

    The outcast young priestess Cassandra has a long road ahead of her in the aftermath of the Trojan War, and she must choose between her prophesised death or forsaking her own hubris and reconciling with her family: Calliope, the muse of epic poetry who is tragically committed to misunderstanding her only daughter, or her father, Morpheus, King of Dreams, who himself is so closed off with his own grief that the youngest of the Endless family is beneath his notice. Will she be able to trust anyone enough to ask for help and reclaim her birth name? Or is she as tragically written as her family tree might suggest?

    Summary

    She decides to follow their gaze, for lack of anything else to do. She’s not entirely sure why Nico brought her here first—if she’s not mistaken, this is not where the Door of Orpheus is. Or—no, she does know. She likes to think she knows Nico di Angelo decently well, as enigmatic as they may be. They want to make sure she’s sure about this.

     

    Well, she already was. Has been. Rocks without bloodstains have been engraved into the back of her eyelids in shining Imperial Gold.

    Summary

    When Swerve opens the bar the following night, it's with steel in his struts and a glint in his visor.
    Every mecha immediately understands that Swerve won't be taking Rodimus' slag any longer.

    ----------

    Being in a relationship is a lot more complex than Swerve thought. Keeping said relationship under-wraps, running a bar, going to therapy; his servos are full from juggling his priorities.

    Thankfully he has two loving warframes willing to help him through thick and thin.

    (He still doesn't quite understand how he bagged Megatron and Optimus Prime, though.)

    Summary

    (Πένθος Θεών / Pénthos Theṓn), also known as Grief of The Gods.

    Is a poem I made in celebration of Epic The Musical's rise to fame, leading to the reignited passions towards the Illiad, Odyssey, and even The Aeneid.

    This follows the aftermath of The End of The Age of Heroes. As the curtains fall, what fate will be in store for our favorite characters like Telemachus, Circe, Odysseus, Penelope...?

    Summary

    This is my continuation of The Aeneid by Virgil. I’m a huge nerd when it comes to Greek and Roman myths and classics. This year in school, we read the Aeneid. I didn’t love how the book ends, so here we are. Also this is written in the style and format of The Aeneid. I spent a lot of time studying Virgil’s word structure.

    This is the story of Aeneas’ son Ascanius and his trials during the hero’s journey in order to prove to his father, his country, and the gods of his strength and power. How will he balance his duty with his desires? Or his divine calling from the gods and prophecies?

    Summary

    It started out as a simple augment, a very stupid one (something about ‘proper’ sword handling or something like that), and somehow it ended in confusion.

    For Odysseus, Son of Laertes, Warrior of the Mind and current king of Ithaca at age 14....

    Just called Pallas Athena...mom.

    Now watch as the goddess of wisdom spirals into a confusing odyssey of self-realization as she learns how to BE a mom from eight goddesses and hopefully gains the knowledge to understand this insane premise before her seven year tutelage ends in a messy fallout.

    All the while slowly going insane from emotional confusion, stress and possible maternal anxiety.

    Oh and did we forget to mention that she also has to face her own past demons as well?

    Summary

    Lucius fears that Arishat may be stuck wandering aimlessly in the Underworld for eternity after a series of concerning dreams and decides he will not fail his wife in death as he did in life.

    Together with his step-sister, demigod Valentina Acacia, the two warriors venture across the Underworld to set things right while running into ghosts of their pasts and receiving warnings about the future of Rome.
    ...

    In the meantime, Empress Lucilla seriously considers castrating all the men in Rome - it would be easier than dealing with suitors.

    Summary

    Arthur thinks the new lecturer in modern Romance languages is disrespectful, infuriating, and gorgeous.

    Merlin thinks the department head is a posh, arrogant Classicist, who has no right being so stunning.

    But workplace relationships never last, and they don't have a single thing in common, including what languages they speak.

    Then again, some things don't get lost in translation.

    Summary

    If he would look up, Nikolai knew he would see, truly see. He wouldn’t reach to nothing nor pretend. His heart throbbed and still he didn’t dare look up.

    I know you, I know you, I know you, the winds whispered.

    A presence was looming over him, casting a shadow in the ever white. Whether it would be his salvation or damnation of that Nikolai was unsure.

    ‘’Are you lost in a reality or a dream?’’ The voice spoke in a low tone.

     

    (Nikolai finds himself lost in a subreal world with an endless horizon and eternal snow. What happens when he meets a stranger that could be his freedom?)
