    Summary

    Years after the war, Pansy Parkinson has clawed her way back into wizarding society—not forgiven, but tolerated enough to run the most successful potions business in Diagon Alley, where she hides her fire beneath sharp suits and sharper sarcasm. Haunted by her family name, past alliances, and the pressures of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, she lives a life of control, distance, and solitude… until a letter offers her a chance at redemption she didn’t know she craved.

    Hermione Granger is burnt out, politically disgraced by a scandal, and stuck in a dead marriage to Ron Weasley. While retreating from the public eye, she uncovers the rise of a new extremist group targeting pure-blood families and is summoned to Hogwarts under the pretence that her presence might dissuade violence. There, she crosses paths with her childhood enemy: a cold, cunning Slytherin she despised.

    What begins as mutual disdain fractures into something darker and far more dangerous. Pansy may be on a hit list. Hermione may be running from more than just scandal. And both of them, who never should’ve shared a thread of trust in each other… may be the lifeline no one saw coming.

    Summary

    Mark Jeffries spent twenty-six years breaking. Osteogenesis Imperfecta saw to that, a lifetime of fractures, hospital stays, and smiling through pain so his family wouldn't worry. When a pulmonary embolism takes him out two days after his latest broken hip, he figures that's the end of it.
    Instead, a goddess in bunny slippers offers him a deal: a new life in a dying world called Astranova. No chosen one prophecy, no grand destiny. Just a simple request...be kind.
    Now he's Aelric Vasren, the frail youngest son of a minor noble house nobody cares about, armed with a class that would be funny if it weren't so cruel. The Crucible Saint grows stronger from the suffering of those around him. The sicker, more frightened, and more desperate the people near him are, the more powerful he becomes.
    The catch? Every person he heals, every fear he soothes, every life he saves drains the very power that let him do it.
    A story about a man who knows pain intimately, armed with a shitty superpower, trying to make a hard world a little softer one small mercy at a time.

    Summary

    Welcome User!

    Congratulations! Due to surprising the Reaper with unprompted self-sacrifice, and unscripted death time.

    The Reaper has bestowed 'Sacrifices Second Chance' onto you. You have been granted a Second Chance.

    Due to positive and negative points accrued throughout your previous life, you have been designated the model [Fixer-Upper], which most closely matches your name, gender, and soul departure time.

    Fixer-Upper (Thadwick Mercer) has been assigned to User (Thadius “Thad” Shepherd).

    Make sure to adjust this model's projected fate. You won’t surprise the Reaper twice.

    Racial adjustment has been assigned and prompted. Model (Thadwick Mercer) has been re-imaged from Human Interface to Outworlder Interface. Outworlder Racial Gifts have been assigned. To view Racial Gift access Help Desk.

    Help Desk is currently unavailable.

    “Thadwick Mercer?!?” He said out loud. “That A**, from the web-novel? WHAT THE ABSOLUTE F**K!”

    Okay, so he’s not dead, but being Thadwick Mercer isn’t much better. And thus begins one man's journey to escape a fate worse than death.

    Summary

    James is a normal man living a completely average life. Then a plane crash leads him to his death. He wakes up in the body of Alfonso Weiss, a character from a series of fantasy romance novels. It may not seem so bad at first glance. Alfonso is rich, handsome, and a powerful wizard.

    Well, there was just one problem: Alfonso wasn’t the hero of The Wizard’s Heart. He’s the main rival of the lead character and was destined to die at the hands of his own brother partway through the series.

    James must now scramble to rewrite his fate and survive in this fictional world where the odds are against him. To make things even worse, the main characters of the story seem uncomfortably interested in him… romantically interested.

    Wait, what?
