Summary
What was supposed to be a simple fanfiction has taken on a life of its own, and I've had to create a reference document to keep all the details straight. This book will contain that information in a (hopefully) reader-friendly format. For those who've enjoyed "A Dove's Tale" and "A Beast's Tale," I offer you this to peruse. Enjoy my insanity!
Also... spoiler alert. I will attempt to label the chapters that contain spoilers accordingly, but read at your own risk.

Summary
In a secluded villa nestled among silent hills, Celine lives a life of solitude, haunted by the echoes of her past. Her ethereal beauty and quiet strength mask a heart weighed by grief and unspoken fears. At her side is Sylus, her devoted butler, whose magnetic presence and caracal-like traits hide a deeper, unconfessed desire. Bound by duty and an invisible thread of mutual understanding, their relationship teeters between service and something more profound. As Celine trains to face monstrous Wanderers, each moment with Sylus stirs a growing tension—an attraction neither dares name. In the stillness of the ancient mansion, where memories linger like shadows, their bond evolves, promising both solace and torment. A slow-burn tale of devotion, vulnerability, and forbidden desire, Echoes of Desires, Shadows of Destinies explores the delicate dance between a mistress and her guardian, where every glance and touch carries the weight of destiny.

Summary
His relationship with words isn’t a usual one. For someone who lives mostly in his own head, words aren’t just sounds. They’re weights. They’re layers. Every variation, every tone, every memory it’s tied to spins around in his brain, refusing to let him go.

Summary
It’s the middle of the night, a red glow is filtering through the curtains, and Nancy once again finds herself naked in Steve Harrington’s bed, watching him leave.
He’s sat at the end of the mattress, leaning to pull on his discarded socks, his shirt still missing in the rubble of the evening’s activities. If he knows she’s awake, he doesn’t acknowledge it, which leaves Nancy to stare at the expanse of his back- at the freckles she can spot even in the dark, and the angry marks she’s left against his shoulder blades.
The sight isn’t unfamiliar.Steve never sticks around for long these days. And wishing he would stay is a solitary, selfish pastime of Nancy’s.
____Post volume 4; It’s the end of the world, Steve and Nancy are hooking up, and it’s definitely not going to get complicated.

Summary
So here Paul finds himself again, standing on the front step of the Curtis family home. He knocks three times just like he always does, then shoves his hands deep in his pockets to stop ‘em from shakin’. Paul is never this nervous about coming over. What’s different about this time? Maybe it’s the fear of being judged—he can already feel the glare of all the Greasers practically breathin’ down his neck—or the fact that Paul’s brain is so miswired he fears he’ll accidentally slip up and say something incriminating to Darry. Something he ain’t ever gonna be able to take back. Something that’s going to change his life one way or another. For better or for worse.

Summary
“Gods can still be lost, can't they?” Your eyes reopen, lids heavy. “Exiled. Disgraced. Forgotten.”
Slavery has seen you branded, cursed. Freedom has seen you rebirthed, blessed, and soon to be redeemed. With the ankh as your mark of self-reclamation—seared irreparably into your flesh—you will see that redemption made true. As a slave no longer, seeking to establish your worth, such will be proven through newfound devotion, through bringing justice upon those who deserve it, through learning how to protect yourself, and most of all, through realizing and finally understanding how to truly protect the innocents of Egypt. But through life and death, through the waking world and dark Duat, through holy Heliopolis, too, you will see your faith restored in a new god, will find your divine calling as a devotee, a herald, a protector…
…as simply being his, and something—someone—more.

Summary
Passing Deku across the hallway or exchanging tense glances was one thing. He could've gotten around that. Having him as his teacher was another.
He had lost the fat in his cheeks and his tan skin held a waxy tint. His eyes seemed hollow but sparked once in a while, as he animatedly discussed something he was clearly passionate about. Unknowingly, Katsuki has straightened up in his chair, wishing to take a better look at the teacher. It felt wrong to be in the same room after six years of wishing he would never have to see him again, and yet so right, as if having the other out of his sight had taken a piece of him away in passing.˗ˏˋ✩ˎˊ˗
After six years spent away from each other, Fate pulls on her strings and our two childhood friends come to reconnect, forced to face their buried feelings.

If They Had Met from the Start by lialux

Summary
This is a childhood-friends to lovers story based on the AU in volume 5 in which Adachi and Shimamura meet in preschool.
It will be a novel length story, I'm currently publishing it weekly.
Adachi & Shimamura is a story about two individuals whose peculiar personality traits that make it hard for them to make and maintain relationships. These traits hurt them in different ways as they grow up, until they meet and learn to love each other.
But, what if they had each other from the start?
This is a story that explores all the things that would change, but also all the things that would stay the same.
How would their personalities differ from the ones in the main story? Imagine an Adachi that was never forced to fully close herself to others, but also a Shimamura that was never left behind by everyone she knew.
It's a stand alone AU so you don't really need to read most of the novels to get it, but you really should. It should be fine if you are anime only thou.

Summary
“You’re what, thirteen?” Kakashi continues, and Itachi feels the question wedge itself somewhere behind his ribs. “You have a family, back at the Uchiha compound. It was just your father who got killed.”
Itachi stills.
Just.
That’s right. It was just his father. Just the clan elders. Just a few righteous Uchiha who tried to stop Shisui from killing them. Not more than forty of the hundred Uchiha.
Just under half of his clan.
Alternatively: The Uchiha Massacre happens by Shisui's hand two years earlier, while Itachi is none the wiser to his motivations. He's now eleven, turning twelve soon, and he has issues. Must be a side-effect from being in ANBU as a literal child. Or the fact your best friend killed half your clan. Who knows.
