Summary
Nothing dramatic happens.
And for a while, that feels like a gift.
In the controlled chaos of a trauma hospital, lines exist for a reason — between professional and personal, attachment and obligation, control and desire. Clara and Damiano are very good at not crossing them.
Until one night proves how thin those lines really are.
A story about restraint, intimacy, and the quiet cost of surviving what almost breaks you.

Summary
At first, the storm didn't seem like much to be worried about, just some rain and turbulence. Then, suddenly, the plane was plummeting. Now stranded on a deserted island, a group of girls must find a way to survive and get rescued before the fear consumes them. But fear is a funny thing. It moves and whispers. It speaks of a beast from the sea and plants the seeds of dissent deep in people's hearts. Can these girls make it through this crashlanding alone, or will blood taint their memories forever?
This is a canon-accurate, genderbent adaptation of William Golding's debut novel, Lord of the Flies.

Summary
A quiet new student transfers into Hillwood carrying almost nothing with her except a suitcase, strange habits, and an unreadable expression.
Nal Robert an observant girl, doesn’t act like anyone the others have met before. She’s intelligent in unsettling ways to others, distant without meaning to be cruel, and oddly unfamiliar with ordinary things most people take for granted. Somehow, despite barely speaking, she slowly becomes tangled in the lives of people she never intended to stay close to.... especially Helga Pataki and Patty Smith. What begins as an awkward living arrangement gradually turns into something harder to define.

Summary
There was no grand explosion, no sudden shift. Instead, it was a steady, inevitable drift. Between the debriefs and the travel days, Lando and Oscar find themselves navigating a new kind of tension, one that doesn't belong on a track. It’s honest, it’s heavy, and it’s becoming impossible to ignore.

Summary
After a month apart, Hans Richter prepares a quiet, deliberate reunion for James Maurice - a world-famous French detective called from Germany to Canada for a case. He books a reservation at a French restaurant in Berlin, prepares a late-season Pinot Gris, and buys a small bouquet of Alstroemeria. After James's flight is delayed, Hans waits. When James finally arrives, flustered and apologetic, they fall into an easy rhythm of wine and conversation, of gifts exchanged, of feet grazing under the table and shoulders leaning in the taxi.
All the while, the city buzzes outside, reminiscent of their entire journey. But that was some other time. Tonight, they have this.

Summary
A modern AU Hamlet set in a contemporary police precinct, following Horatio as he becomes entangled in the aftermath of Lieutenant Hamlet’s death and his son’s unraveling grief. It starts with a break-in at the precinct, and our characters are forced to confront questions of loyalty, truth, and perception as events spiral into tragedy.
I have never done a modern retelling of anything and I'm very much enjoying it. It follows the play's events to a fault (?? as in, I read the play and I take advantage of the dramaturgical storytelling), with a lot of tweaks to fit modern day context better. Hopefully this fic reaches someone seeing as the Hamlet fanfic writing fandom is sooo small guys come on let's write more Hamlet fanfics😔 I am procrastinating absolutely everything by writing this.

Summary
Tywin Lannister toured the Westerlands, crushing the rebellion of the vassal House Moreland in passing. He spared the lord's daughter in a rare act of mercy, taking her back to Casterly Rock as his ward.
"My brother is not a man of sentiment," Kevan remarked privately at the time. "Though it is a pity; that girl has a head that belongs on a Lannister's neck."
But Casterly Rock never lacked for clever nobodies with nothing to their names. It was a passing comment, soon forgotten.Years later, when Tywin announced that his widowed ward would marry into House Lannister, the West envied her fortune. They saw her as a living testament to Lannister benevolence, a golden symbol of luck.
Only Kevan lay awake all night.
"I thought you admired her," his sister Genna marveled. "Now that she’s truly becoming one of us, why do you look as if doom is upon us?"
"You don't understand... it is already too late," Kevan said bleakly. "I should have killed her myself back then." -

Summary
Addie Abernathy never learned how to pretend.
In a society where every gesture is measured and every relationship carries weight, that makes her dangerous.Brought into the Brighton household as a companion, she moves through Lakewood society untouched by the rules that shape everyone else.

To some, she is a quiet relief. To others, a mirror they cannot look away from. To a few, something far more threatening, a refusal that cannot be controlled.
As bonds form and fracture, what everyone else will do when they can no longer pretend.
Some grow. Some break. Some try to reshape her into something safer.This is a character-focused story inspired by CandyCandy about love, identity, and the cost of becoming real in a world built on performance.
Slow burn • Psychological romance • Aristocratic drama • Author-driven narrative with AI-assisted language refinement.
(Some characters belong to Keiko Nagita/Kyoko Mizuki and Yumiko Igarashi. Plot, structure, themes, and direction are entirely author-driven; AI is used solely as a language refinement)
