    Summary

    Harry Potter’s entire life rests on a lie carefully spun by Albus Dumbledore.
    After Voldemort’s fall, Dumbledore controlled the story the world heard and secretly kept James and Lily Potter alive for his own purposes. He left Harry with abusive Muggle relatives to keep him small and compliant. All of it was done in the name of the so-called “greater good.”
    Now, Harry is back in the Wizarding World, and Dumbledore’s grip on him is weakening. The truth is beginning to surface, and it is coming straight for Albus Dumbledore.

    Summary

    Echo is quiet and awkward.
    -
    She also eats people.
    -
    After Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb drag the strange cannibal into the Hazbin Hotel, Echo slowly begins finding something she never had in life: friends.
    -
    Unfortunately, she also gains the attention of the Radio Demon.
    -
    Alastor finds her fascinating — the shadows that speak and move on their own, the bloodlust she barely tries to hide, the way she devours sinners with unsettling enthusiasm.
    -
    The more time she spends with Alastor, the clearer one thing becomes:
    -
    The Radio Demon isn’t just curious about her.
    -
    He’s starting to believe she belongs beside him.

    Summary

    Zugzwang (from German 'compulsion to move') is a situation found in chess and other turn-based games wherein one player is put at a disadvantage because of their obligation to make a move;

    ***

    A dangerous virus has gone missing, drawing several unlikely figures into a tense web of investigation and manipulation.
    ***

    The events of this story take place in a kind of parallel version of our world. It may resemble reality, but it is not meant to reflect it exactly. In this universe, certain situations are a little more stable, a little different, and shaped primarily by the imagination of the author. Please do not take everything written here too literally—or too seriously. Some of it was clearly written by an overexcited brain. At its heart, this story it is about something far simpler and far more dramatic: what a truly, hopelessly, completely in-love man might look like on a global scale. Not just someone who brings flowers and says “I love you,” but someone who carries that feeling through tension, longing, and the quiet gravity of yearning.

    So if the beginning feels slow or dense, stay with it. The author promises: sooner or later, the brainrot will arrive.

    Summary

    As a member of the high nobility, he was invited to a ball. Bored by the event, he merely observed. Though countless ladies wished to dance with him, he turned them all down. It wasn't as if they wanted anything from him; it was his title that appealed to them. And perhaps the charm with which he carried himself.
    However, most were disappointed as soon as they realized how he behaved - not at all like the nobleman of their dreams.
    So it wasn't so bad for him to be alone for an evening. That had been his original plan anyway. He was already waiting for the event to end.

    Until his gaze caught on long golden hair, and a golden gown that was subtle, and yet impossible to ignore.

    Summary

    “You’re crazy.” That’s the only thing Utahime could say, in all honesty. And it felt good, you know. Knowing that someone cares for your presence or is delighted to be in the essence of your presence. Add to that, if a different guy said that to her it would probably give her the creeps, but somehow, there’s some sort of comfort and safety when it’s Satoru Gojo. If it’s him, Utahime admits that it’s okay. Because he isn’t scary at all. Whenever she examines him through looking in his eyes, all she could see is the same crazy but genuine Gojo she had known ever since they were children.

    Or...

    It's when Utahime Iori finally opens up her heart and along the way, maybe realizing Gojo Satoru's heart isn't up his sleeve and reckless. Instead, it is well guarded but free, it's in his autumn pockets.

    Summary

    Lee Minho was born into a name that opened doors and a father who never saw a son.

    He learned early.
    Love is conditional. Loyalty is transactional. Weakness is punished.

    So he became quiet. Sharp. Untouchable.

    Bang Chan doesn’t break people. He studies them.
    A surgeon. A tactician. A monster carved from loss.

    He watches Minho the way other men watch storms — patient, waiting to see what survives.

    Chan doesn’t want obedient boys.
    He wants wolves.

    And Minho has spent his entire life starving.

    In Masquerade, criminals vanish. Governments comply. Wars shift quietly.

    But inside a seaside cabin, something far more dangerous begins.

    Not captivity.
    Not mercy.

    An offer.

    What happens when the discarded son of one empire
    is truly seen by the man who built another from blood?

    When survival becomes ambition?
    When hunger finds purpose?

    Welcome to the circus.

    Where monsters are made —
    and bastards learn to rule.

    Summary

    Mark died in a hospital bed at twenty-six. He woke up as Aelric Vasren, the sickly son of a minor noble chosen by the weakest goddess in the pantheon to be her first Saint in a thousand years.
    His power feeds on suffering. Every person he heals makes him weaker. His body breaks when he uses it, and the world he's been dropped into runs on slavery, cruelty, and the comfortable agreement among the powerful that mercy is a luxury the poor neither deserve or can afford.
    He's going to be merciful anyway.
    Armed with a class that turns his lifelong familiarity with pain into divine healing, a valet who could organize the apocalypse, a bodyguard whose pride was stolen and rebuilt, a former sex slave who refuses to be made less than what she is, and a blind prince whose emotional walls are crumbling faster than he can repair them, the five flee the only home they've ever known. With enemies surrounding them on all sides a broken family must find safety in an unsafe world and the man at the center of it all has to decide how much of himself he's willing to spend before there's nothing left.
    A story about revolutionary acts of kindness and the particular courage required to be merciful in a world that punishes mercy.
