    Summary

    After losing her soulmate in a DoorDash gone wrong, Emilia Cartwright is barely holding it together, when she's suddenly yanked through realms and dropped on Hell's doorstep.
    Thanks to a political initiative that definitely violates the Geneva Conventions, she's forced to attend demon school, complete with murderous classmates, conniving angels, and one immortal Sorcerer with a tragic and frighteningly relevant backstory.
    While battling monsters, learning that magic is thrilling, lethal and both all at once, uncovering the secrets of seven demon brothers, revolting against multi-millennia enemies, and discovering her own roots aren't as human as she thought...she somehow has time for romance.
    Whether it’s the safe path with someone who reflects her first love, or the hard, morally grey route that will drive her insane, who knows?
    Subtlety? Never heard of her.

    Summary

    Sequal to In the End, We Burn Together.

    Sophia, the Nephilim, has taken Cazador's spawn with her back to Sanctuary.
    Wanting to create stability for the planet, she has to not only build her faction and gather like minded organisations to her cause, she must also face intrigue, political maneuvering, power grabs, alliances and betrayals, all while trying to find Diablo and stop him before he turns all of Sanctuary into his corrupted mind flayers.

    Summary

    Kitty survives Hell by making a deal she doesn’t fully understand.

    Under Alastor’s “protection,” her days are shaped by silence tests, art, and the slow erosion of autonomy disguised as care. But when Alastor begins to slip—when injuries linger and names surface that shouldn’t—Kitty realizes the Radio Demon may not be as untouchable as he wants her to believe.

    And knowing that might be the most dangerous thing of all.

    Summary

    Blazing fire and smoldering ash, two sides of the same coin. Fire can both destroy and sustain life.
    Steadfast earth, unyielding and eternal, holds the power to guide the flames. Soothing water, a balm
    for the wounded soul, maintains a delicate balance between destruction and creation.

    However, one cannot simply create whatever they desire through alchemy. The laws of equal exchange
    must be followed. Alchemy is not mere magic, but a sacred and disciplined art of transmutation.
     
    A fragile truce may be present now, but it was not easily achieved. The shadows of our enemies linger,
    ominous and menacing, ready to engulf us once more if we falter. Can we break the chains of our past
    and forge a daunting yet promising future?

    Or will the flames of war consume us all?

    Summary

    “I think you’re mistaken, I feel like you want a surgeon,” you said, eyeing him strangely. “I’m a coroner.”
    “Are they that different,” the man questioned.
    “Uh, yes?”

    Or: you try to be a good samaritan by saving the life of a boy that was brought into your office to be autopsied. somehow this turns into you becoming the private doctor for a crime lord despite the fact you are much more qualified to take people apart than you are to put them together. you don’t know what you did, but surely you did not survive medical school, divorce, and everything else life has thrown your way just to have to survive him too.

    Summary

    Two decades after the Inferi first crawled from the rivers, Regulus learned what the universe had already made clear: it doesn’t owe the living anything.

    And while he accepted that fact, he chooses to fight against it all the same. Defying fate and discovering the consequences.

    Told from Regulus’s POV, the story follows five survivors: Regulus, James, Sirius, Remus, and Lily. They navigate the ruins of the Scottish Lowlands in order to survive the Inferi, the elements, and other cruelties in what remains of humanity.

    Summary

    An immortal serial killer and her husband find themselves facing off against a Doomsday Cult. Blood pours, bones break, things get weirder and they start realizing they can't shoot and stab their way out.

    ********

    Has a lot of horror elements but I'm going for more a brutal slasher with dark humor vibes than an actual horror story

    Does have smut, especially in the first chapter, but not rape smut, it has rape tags because the antagonist is a rape cult but not because there's actually gonna be full rape scenes

    Summary

    — Lunatic. — Arkha growls, he doesn’t seem that worried about it, not even close to angry even though there’s a wrinkle between his brows.
    — Call me whatever you want, you’re the one who wanted to be by my side, bonded. — He is forced to make a brief dramatic pause, to move closer to the man’s ear and whisper a soft — Forever.
    Or
    Tamsy and his boss go on a date.
    And it's a complicated relationship, like in Seesaw, my other work.

    Summary

    A field report. A confession. A cry for help disguised as deadpan observation.
    Five people (more or less) follow a Commissar through the rotting spine of the Imperium.
    One of them is an ork. One of them is named Steve. One of them might’ve danced with a daemonette once.
    No one is laughing. Except the ork.

    This is the old kind of Warhammer story: baroque, heretical, half-funny in a way that makes you feel worse afterward. There are no Space Marines hugging it out. There are no spiritual journeys. Everyone is tired, and the prayer books are damp.

    Summary

    There’s a game in this world not many people know about — but enough do. They say you can become younger if you play. Maybe if you’re blind, there’s a chance you’ll be able to see again. Or if you have any other kind of disability.

    They’ve got you hook, line, and sinker.

    He likes playing dangerous games. If you think about it — that’s more your element. You know, the hand magic, misdirection, and a whole lot of practice, starting from childhood. The coin trick was never the beginner stage and even back then seemed stupid and meaningless to you. What’s the point of pulling things from behind the ear of a surprised girl you like? To get her attention, impress her with cheap tricks? But where’s the profit in that? The disappearance of coins interested you much more — at least when there were four of them. You were always traded — bartered, slipped out from under a parent’s hand, stolen and wild. And if you think about it, that one word echoes through your whole life.
