    Summary

    Snape and Harriet have a Switching Potion explode on them, causing them to slide into each other's bodies.

    They need to bury the hatchet and work together for once to turn back into their true selves. Of course, nothing is without trouble.

    Harriet is constantly plagued with erotic dreams and a body that misbehaves if not cared for enough while Severus has to deal with menstruation for the first time in his life.

    They need to masquerade as each other, resist the urge to snipe and somehow come up with a solution to their potion problem.

    Summary

    “Alright then. I also wanted to say that there's another competition coming up, and I want both of you to participate. As a pair.” Izuku chokes on his own spit and Bakugo nearly drops his cello. 

    “HUH?!?” They both scream simultaneously.  

    “You heard me. Both of you are good enough to qualify, and i think playing a duet will give you a higher chance of winning and getting first place or at least making it to the top three.” Aizawa replies, not even blinking at the response they both let out. “I have the music already; I've been looking for a pair like you guys for a while now.” Mr. Aizawa reaches into his music drawer and pulls out sheet music. “isn't there anyway I can play with another cellist? Or maybe a different instrument?” Izuku suggests, trying any possible way he can to avoid being paired with Bakugo. “I will take no excuses. You are playing with him and that's final.” Aizawa replies handing both of them the music before walking out, leaving the two of them alone with their hearts up their asses.

    Summary

    Every profound spirit needs a mask; even more, around every profound spirit a mask is continually growing.

    On Wall Street, everyone wears a mask. Ajax's is gilded—wealthy, brilliant and a little ruthless—the youngest Vice President of Snezhnaya Group and the envy of men twice his age. But beneath the polish lies Tartaglia: the murderous creature born in frozen Leningrad and buried beneath years of performance and starvation.

    Then he meets Zhongli, the untouchable chairman of a rival firm. He is irrevocably handsome, utterly composed, absolutely revered without even trying to be. Ajax’s fascination festers. He wants him. He wants to be him. He wants to crawl beneath his skin, wear his calm like a second face, and feel what it’s like to be adored without effort.

    To love Zhongli is to envy him.
    To envy him is to become him.

    And as the bodies around Zhongli begin to appear in the forms of his secretaries, partners, and friends, Ajax must confront the most terrifying possibility of all.

    Perhaps the mask has slipped. Perhaps Ajax is a killer.

    Summary

    In 1991, the wizarding world celebrates the start of a new school year at Hogwarts. Harry Potter—the Boy Who Lived—is about to begin his first year, and every eye is fixed on him.

    But an unexpected announcement shakes the entire magical world: the discovery of two long-hidden heirs—Rigel Black-Potter and Alaric Prince-Malfoy.

    With pasts wrapped in secrecy and futures heavy with mystery, Rigel and Alaric arrive at Hogwarts—skipping straight into their third year—stunning both students and professors alike. Yet what draws the most attention isn’t just their sudden appearance, but their bloodlines: Rigel, son of Regulus Black and James Potter; and Alaric, son of Severus Prince and Lucius Malfoy.
    They carry secrets powerful enough to change everything.

    How will Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy react when they find out they have half-brothers?
    What dark prophecy binds these four boys together?

    In a Hogwarts where loyalties will be tested and the ghosts of the past refuse to rest, two worlds are about to collide—and their shared destiny is only beginning to unfold.

    Summary

    Kim Hajin is a failure. There's no two ways to look at that objective truth. It's a truth that resonates through how others look at and ridicule him. It's a truth that echoes infinitely inside his head, compounding and doubling down on his inadequacies. It's a truth, despite the unconditional love of two parents that soothe but cannot dispel those haunting doubts.

    Kim Suho is simply perfection. The desperate vessel and ideal of Hajin's "ifs" and wishes. Because Kim Suho, the protagonist of Hajin's novel, is everything Hajin wants to be for his parents and more. But, that story falls apart at the seams the same way Hajin has lost faith in himself.

    Yet, as the common narrative dictates, everything begins anew with an innocuous email requesting to remake Hajin's novel.

    ***

    Alternatively, the extremes of Korean culture break Kim Hajin into someone who feels much more acutely, and everything shifts to the left.

    Summary

    A malfunctioning space bridge causes Whirl, and his definitely-totally-arch-nemesis Cyclonus, to land on a planet outside of the charted universe. A planet far away from the war, whose inhabitants seem to be dead set on forcing the two of them to learn how to (ugh) live normal, healthy lives, where they talk about their feeeeelings and make friends with weird, organic little slime blobs. Ugh.

    Whirl would rather die, thanks.


    Or, in which Tailgate is a Slime Rancher, and gets a couple of emotionally stunted, war-hardened idiots dropped on his lawn.

    Summary

    V's had enough of J. She stages a mutiny with N.

     

    "Oh, that's J. We kind of just keep her around?" N explained, noticing her line of sight.

    It was hard to tell past the yellow acid surrounding it and grayish spit coughed down its front, but Uzi was pretty sure that was a murder drone chained to the pod's wall. It was lying on the floor, steaming slightly from the puddle of its acid, but its visor was glitching so badly Uzi wasn't even sure it was aware.

    Summary

    You survived. Somehow. Everyone else is gone—swallowed up in the final battle against Sephiroth—and the only one left standing beside you is Cloud. Not because you chose each other, not because you want to. But because grief is cruel, and fate is crueler.

    You’re stuck together, bound not by affection but by loss. You fight, you hate, you tear each other open because it’s easier than facing what’s missing. And yet, somewhere in the ashes of what you both destroyed, something else begins to take shape. Not tenderness, not forgiveness—but something just as dangerous.

    “I love it when you threaten to kill me. Because every time you don’t just tells me how much you don’t want to.”

    Summary

    Tyler spends his days behind the counter of the local bargain store, surrounded by cast-off items that find their home. At dusk, he drowns his sorrows in bottles and card games, where he catches up on the latest gossip going around town.

    He wants more: a deputy’s badge, a life worth living, the will to make it count. Yet the mistakes he makes, and the burdens he can’t shake, keep dragging him back onto the same old path.

    That fall, the change he’d been waiting for finds him—at a cost he never imagined.

    Summary

    Stories that were in draft. Some short, some long. Trying to improve for oneself. The number of total chapters is subject to change. Previous chapter may be rewritten.

    ---

    The sun always finds its moon, even when the sky forgets why. Iuno and Augusta move through their days like celestial bodies caught in an orbit neither can explain—drawn together by instinct rather than memory, by warmth rather than history. These are the moments between prophecy and fate: shared laughter over nothing important, hands that reach without thinking, and the quiet discovery that some things don't need remembering to feel like coming home. A collection of days when falling in love again feels less like repetition and more like grace.

    Summary

    | WATTPAD CREATORS PROGRAM · REWRITE OF THE VERY FIRST STORY I WROTE IN 4TH GRADE!|

    A chance encounter with Top Ranger Kellyn whisks Ash and his friends away on a new adventure to the Almia Region, where they must uncover the mystery of the Rainbow Birds and protect them from nefarious outside forces.

    ***

    Sixteen-year-old Kellyn, still a new Top Pokémon Ranger, has been stationed in the Sinnoh Region for a while, clearing mission after mission. However, when he's unexpectedly called back to Almia with concerns about the Rainbow Bird Pokémon, Parity and Blue-Bird, he never expects to run into Ash, Brock, and Dawn again, who ask to go with him.

    Although reluctant, Kellyn agrees they can come, as long as they keep their distance and let him complete his mission himself, but that proves difficult with Ash's clumsiness, curiosity, and love for Pokémon--and when the mission turns out to be more dangerous than Kellyn thought.

    When nefarious forces rise, the Pokémon team must work together before it's too late for not only them, but also all of Almia and Sinnoh.

    Nonetheless, Kellyn is not too eager to ask for help.

    Summary

    Jimin is the golden boy of the school — class monitor, straight-A student, the one who never breaks a rule. Jungkook is everything he’s not: late to class, leather-clad, always in detention. Their worlds never collided — until now. Forced to work together after school, they clash, argue, and challenge each other in ways neither expected. But maybe the line between hate and something more is thinner than they think. And maybe, just maybe, rules are meant to be broken.

    Summary

    Hi peeps! So I added a LOT to this story... enriched chapters throughout, added a big new chunk in the middle, and actually finished it. But I'm gonna be reposting it all under a new work because it'd be too confusing to edit/add here. So if you enjoyed it and would like to experience the re-release, haha, feel free to go subscribe here: https://archiveofourown.info/works/73750351/chapters/192310371

    Howzer stole our hearts when he appeared in TBB S1 E12, and I wanted to write a bit of a backstory for him. It begins with his newbie days during The Clone Wars and stretches to where we last see him in The Bad Batch. Enjoy his character arc and some heartwarming romance, yearning, angst, and growth.

    PG-13 action + adventure + romance

    Summary

    He’s built for battle and driven by conviction. She's too ordinary to matter, or so she thinks. Drawn together by the spark of a kindred spirit, Howzer and Aurelia start to see in each other what they can’t find in themselves. A tumultuous galaxy keeps driving them apart, but somehow they keep finding their way back. This is a slow-burn story of friendship becoming love, of purpose discovered in the midst of chaos, and of two people finding their home in each other. Through battles and banter, longing and loss, their story weaves humor, yearning, adventure, and delight in a warm and fuzzy adventure.

    Summary

    You once lived a life defined by elegance, rules, and the heavy weight of judgment. Each step measured, each breath accounted for. You never planned to flee that world, never intended to wash up in a foreign land where the sea speaks in riddles and freedom tastes almost unruly… yet here you are.

    Starting over should have been simple.

    But fate has a habit of finding you and sometimes it comes in the shape of a Lightkeeper whose presence you can never quite outrun.

    He protects without asking, appears when you least expect, vanishes when you begin to hope and somehow, your heart still reaches for him in the dark.

    Perhaps, he is the one you’ve been searching for all along.

    Summary

    Starscream's life could be described as a long series of mistakes and failures, if one were to ask him, not for his own fault. After millennia of war, a last failure seems to bring an end to the Seeker, a last fight ending with him caught in a space bridge explosion. Once he realizes what has truly happened, Starscream would almost prefer it to what was actually the case. Living his life once had been pits, and back in his first frame, Starscream is set to change his life and the fate of the universe…for better or for worse. An endeavour only complicated by an invisible guest.

    Summary

    The gods are busy. Loki is bored, and she, named by Him Astrid—the wolf-girl dragged from the forest—has no idea she's about to become his favorite pet.
    Raised by wolves in 10th-century Norway, Astrid understands pack law, the honesty of fangs, and the language of the hunt. But when Viking hunters capture her, she's thrust into a world of lies, fire-tamed and full of strange rituals. She cannot speak their tongue. She cannot bear their touch. And she certainly cannot understand why the old völva looks at her with knowing eyes and calls her "child of destiny."
    But Loki—trickster, schemer, the god who plays with mortal lives like chess pieces—sees potential. In this feral girl who bites the hand that feeds her, he sees chaos. And chaos, properly guided, can reshape the world.
    A literary historical fantasy where wolves, Vikings, and Norse gods collide—and a girl who was never meant to be human learns that civilization's greatest lie is that wildness can be tamed.
