Summary
Sometimes it still scares you what you can get used to, in this world. By now, you welcome the sting of familiar fear — it keeps you sharp. And it means there's still enough of you left to feel afraid of what you're becoming.
or:
An anxious burnout wakes up as a nameless moray mer, one of many spawned and doomed to die. They quickly learn the price of compassion and of company in the Coral Sea, and exactly what they’re willing to pay for both. The cost of their burgeoning inhumanity is harder to come to terms with... but at least they aren’t alone for it.
or:
The self-proclaimed eldest Leech just wants to live quietly, please!! Life, family, and his own ‘interesting value’ conspire against him. Can’t someone humbly pursue a magic thesis and internally weep over their degrading morality in peace?? Ah, at least they have their very cute and kinda scary genius trio to dote on… Yes, hurry up and graduate to take responsibility for this shady ‘family business’, won’t you!? Enabling— um, cheering you on mightily! ( ु⁎ᴗ.ᴗ⁎)ु.｡oO

Summary
A slow-burn, emotionally layered dark fantasy set in a bioluminescent mire, haunted by the choices of a fallen empire. A land so tangled by rumors, its very name spoken like fable: Kymera.
Spiders crawl through the in-between, slipping through the cracks of reality. Grass hums your name before pulling you beneath the mud, muffled screams to never be heard. And somewhere between it all, the specter of a pale-beastman haunting the woods, wielding nature as blades. The land made mythical, horrific in its beauty.
Cael runs from his past, pursued by hands that would see him caged and sold. Straight into Kymera, and into the domain of a reclusive fox mage who clearly didn’t ask for this, nor the trouble that followed.
There’s no grand prophecy. No chosen one. Just a mage, his apprentice, and a world that would consume them both without blinking.

Summary
Sometimes love burns brighter than it should. Bakugou and Todoroki were once unstoppable together—fierce, fiery, and too close to the stars. But distance, pride, and unspoken feelings pull them apart, leaving aching hearts in their wake. As they navigate separation, regret, and the mirror of each other’s flaws, they must confront whether what they had was a fleeting spark… or something worth fighting for.

Summary
It’s bad in every way a restaurant can possibly be bad, but mostly because the kitchen cannot cook decent food. Any meal at this hermetic, self-regarding restaurant brings a protracted march of bland, tepid dishes.
This restaurant is soulless, overpriced, and (curiously!) still manages to be packed. Perhaps its diners are masochists. Or perhaps London has finally embraced nihilism, culinary or otherwise.
Percy Weasley is London’s most feared food critic. One poor review from him can make or break a young chef's career. He’s known for his razor-sharp palate, brutal honesty, and the fact that he’s never once in eight years given a single five-star review. People say he hates food. He doesn't. He just hates bad food.
All Oliver Wood wanted to do was play professional football. But after a career-ending injury, he pours his energy into cooking. His soft-opening for his passion project restaurant The Pitch is off to a quiet start. That is, until a striking redhead walks in and agrees to be the first customer to try his food.

Summary
It is 1998, two years before Rouge makes her journey up north and meets Wolverine
Thomas, a 15 year old boy scarred by years of neglect and loss, is discovered by mutants with extraordinary abilities. Taken to Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters, he must navigate a world of minds far stronger than his own, a mansion filled with secrets, and a mentor who sees more in him than Thomas can see in himself. As he grapples with his newfound gifts, his brilliance draws attention—and curiosity—from every corner, leaving one question: how much of the boy is simply human, and how much is something extraordinary?
Starring; Timothée Chalamet as Thomas, Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier, James Marsden as Cyclops and Famke Jessen as Jean Grey. Anyone else is cast as the same Charachter they were in the movie.

Summary
Everyone and their mother knows that suppressants aren’t foolproof. They’re not a one size fits all like the pharmaceutical companies tout them to be. Some meds are better for omegas than others, but price and availability limits their usage. It’s a whole thing that Robert has learned to live with.
So, when one of the members of Z-Team is going into a rut because of a mysterious drug, the suppressants aren't as effective as they should be. Robert decides to hole up for a day in hopes he’s only going into pre-heat and not a full blown heat.
What he gets is help from an alpha that he never expected.

Summary

Until his assistant dragged the fearless blonde to his private room during a protocore auction. She didn't flinch, didn't fawn over him, didn't try to seduce him for status or protection. Instead, she matched him in his own game. And he became addicted to the rush.
What will happen if two predators circle each other? Will they tear each other apart? Or fall for each other?

Summary
“I am not here to give you flattery or gentle words; I am here to address the near-irreparable harm that has been enacted in the name of ignorance and fear. Together, we are here to unveil the Embassy which will, I earnestly hope, be the first step in repairing that harm. This path may be difficult and its steps treacherous,” Daniel paused, “but we will walk it together. For the good of the We-Who-Are-Infinite as much as for you, One-Among-Many.”
“Now,” and here his smile turned wide and wry, his hands rising in front of him as if to cup the air, “I give to you our Embassy.”
His cupped hands fell open in a gesture like a blooming lotus.
The camera flickered and then - there was, in truth, the Embassy.
***
or,Nothing is as simple as a single rescue, and nothing is without consequence. Red Robin learns as much when he is roped into an ambassadorship for the Living. If he's lucky, he'll navigate the politics, raids, and even social media - and land himself a diplomatically fraught boyfriend while he's at it.
