    Summary

    Katara has spent four years learning to read Zuko: the real smile versus the diplomatic one, what his silences mean, the exact weight of the things he doesn't say. She is very good at it. Katara is, somehow, completely unable to read what that says about her. Neither can Zuko. It takes a Fire Nation noble, a Water Tribe ambassador, and Toph's complete lack of patience to finally make them look.

    Summary

    When Matthew Crawley, a partner at Swire, Weatherby & Crawley, posted an ad for an articled clerk at The Times, he did not expect to end up facing the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen the very next morning.

    “Mr Crawley, let me first state several facts to save time. First of all, I am not here to seek a position as a secretary; I want to be your articled clerk to become a solicitor, which the Sex Disqualification Act does allow me to attempt if I find a qualified solicitor willing to be my supervisor. Yes, my title is real and my father is an earl, but it has no bearing on the fact that I want to become a solicitor. No, I won’t leave your firm halfway through my apprenticeship to get married since I already am. No, I won’t be missing work all the time to take care of my children, since I don’t have any. No, I won’t quit halfway through the apprenticeship to have a baby, since it’s highly unlikely I’m going to get pregnant any time soon. Yes, I am very sure of that. No, I am not just here to waste your time, assuming your ad in the jobs section of The Times is genuine and you’re really looking for an apprentice. If it’s not, you’re wasting my time.”

    Summary

    The trouble started with Marian’s phone buzzing.
    Push alerts from the New York Times, Page Six, People, and, God help her, TMZ.

    “Billionaire Heir in Newport Love Nest with TV Star Susan Blaine”
    “Lawrence Russell, 29, Linked to Married TV Anchor 30 Years His Senior”
    “Scandal at RussellCorp: Family in Damage Control After Affair Revealed”
    Marian’s eyes widened as she tapped one. The article unfurled in garish detail. With equally garish photographs.

    Her stomach twisted with something that was half disbelief and half… something else she couldn’t name.

    Buzz. Another notification. This one wasn’t from a news app but a text.

    Larry: Come over.
    ___________________________________

    He’s a billionaire’s son with a scandal, she’s his best friend and sick of getting set up on blind dates with every self-absorbed hedgefund manager in New York. When Larry’s dating disaster goes viral globally, he turns to Marian, his most reliable partner in crime, for a little help. Pretending to be the perfect couple sounds simple enough… until late-night texts, accidental kisses and social media fans start making them question if “fake” might just be the most real thing they’ve ever felt.

    Summary

    “Wait, wait, wait, wait,” Griffin turned to place his hand on Tyler’s flannel-clad shoulder. “So you’re telling me that this girl took you to a chapel filled with all her friends and family, walked down the aisle to get to you, and tried to bind you two together for eternity?” He pulled back smug, arms crossed in his seat. “Sounds kinda like a shotgun wedding to me.”

     

    Tyler gets teased about his obvious crush on Wednesday and their failed "shotgun wedding".

    Matters don't improve when she suddenly shows up.

    Summary

    What if Wednesday Addams and Tyler Galpin grew up knowing each other?

    "And then, another vision — softer, stranger, more alien than the rest. The Addams and the Nights shared the same long dining table, candles flickering low as children’s laughter rang out where hatred once festered. Tyler and Wednesday were there too — not meeting across a coffee shop counter heavy with flirtation, not mingling with the rise of betrayal and suspicion, not circling one another like predators raised on false grudges, but seated cross-legged beneath the banquet table as children. Isaac’s nephew, Ophelia’s niece. He — a shy boy, wide-eyed and hesitant, with ink-smudged fingers and a crooked grin. She — a pale, solemn girl, already sharp and strange, daring him to climb higher, jump farther, tempt danger closer.

    Before they were anything else, they were friends."

    Spinoff idea stemming from the last chapter of Bleached Bones, but can be read as a standalone fic.

    Summary

    “Don’t, Tyler.” Her voice came out breathier than she’d like, but this was the first time they’ve been this close since before everything, and it was doing things to her she’d always sworn would never sway her. An unpleasant warmth unfurled within her from his mere presence with no bars, no guards, nothing in between them but a cloak and the suffocating night air. Swallowing harshly, she kept her words to a raspy whisper, “We both know I’m who you really want.”

    “Oh, is that something we both know, Cockroach?” His head craned sideways, their eyes connecting as a sardonic smirk passed over his mouth. “I thought we both knew tonight was going to end with an eviscerated werewolf and one particularly pesky raven dead as a doornail, but maybe I missed your memo.”

    or

    Wednesday decides that before she becomes his master, she and Tyler need to have a conversation without any Nightshades or overprotective roommates able to interfere.

    Summary

    After a fire leaves her with nothing but ashes and a forgotten betrothal, Rey is sent from India to the cold, echoing halls of Wrenwick Manor. The engagement is nearly a year overdue, and her intended—Lord Solo—is a man carved by war, more specter than savior. The marriage should have been voided, but he never withdrew the offer.

    Yorkshire is bleak. The manor, bleaker still. And yet beneath its withering silence, something begins to stir. A memory. A hunger. A seed of something half-dead pushing through frostbitten soil.

    He is running from a past soaked in blood. She is clinging to a version of this place that may never have existed.

    Somewhere between locked doors and shadowed halls, they begin to bloom—darkly, desperately, beautifully.

    A gothic romance about what survives the burn. About the ache to be known, and the terror of being seen. About roots that tangle… and rot.

    Summary

    Nevermore instates the Hyde rehabilitation program. Tyler Galpin returns under court-order; half patient, half prisoner, his every move monitored.

    When a string of murders begins, suspicion falls easily back on him. To prove the truth, Wednesday Addams is forced to keep him close, closer than is comfortable, closer than is safe and closer than her boyfriend, Xavier Thorpe, would like.

    What begins as strategy twists into something heavier; glances held too long, silence stretched too thin, and proximity that feels like a blade pressed into skin.

    Some scars refuse to fade. Some lies cut deeper than confessions.

    And the weight of almost may be the heaviest burden of all.

    Summary

    “Don’t court this monster,” her mother had said, as if the courting wasn’t already completed months ago, her fate signed, sealed, and delivered to a cell in Willowhill.

    As if her traitorous heart hadn’t shattered when Tyler had stared her down in the police station, throwing his betrayal in her face without a care in the world. As if the intervening months hadn’t been the most delicious agony as she deliberated over the paperwork to visit him time and time again, unwilling to take the first step yet, but knowing that she eventually would. As if she hadn’t fantasized over the first words she would say to her monster, how to needle and poke and prod and slice to cause even a taste of the pain that he’s caused her.

    or

    An Addams falls in love recklessly, passionately, obsessively. A Frump falls in love only once. Wednesday is, in the end, very much a product of both bloodlines.
