    Summary

    His grandmother was the one who taught Gen about their connection.

    Someone else might have called it magic, or a power, or a gift. But she never used any of those words. “It’s simply what we are,” she told him. “A conversation between us and the land.”

    The spirits of the place - root, leaf, cloud, river, stone - spoke to them. And they could speak back, even command to a gentle extent. Gen’s grandmother could coax stubborn plants into flourishing, call a storm’s attention until it gathered overhead, or listen to the wind mutter news from distant hills. She said every human had a connection to the earth’s spirit, but most were deaf to it. Gen and his grandmother, though - theirs ran deep. Deeper than reason, deeper than blood.

    --

    Gen is magic. This changes everything.

    Summary

    When Kasumi Hirota was a small child, her father worked as Endeavor's support head. She became friends with the Todoroki children, particularly Shoto, with whom she was close in age. However, when a piece of support gear backfired on Endeavor, her father took the blame and was blacklisted from joining any support company. Kasumi was separated from her friends and has not seen them since. However, almost seven years later, Kasumi was admitted to UA's support course and her path would cross Shoto's yet again, as well as other hero course students. Unfortunately, things will not be as easy as anyone thought as her first year at UA goes along. Her father's reputation precedes her, resulting in making friends extremely difficult, emergencies seem to follow the UA hero course wherever they go, and someone even seems to have a vendetta against Kasumi herself.

    Summary

    “Oh-kay!” The man leaned forward, still smiling, hands intertwined. “It is very nice to meet you, Roadrunner! Now I’m sure you’re wondering why you’re here-“

    “Yeah actually, where is here-“

    “Ah-bup-bup!” The man cut him off. “Well get to that, don’t you worry, but first you’ve gotta hear me out here, alright?”

    Grian’s eyes narrowed. “Okay?”

    “Great, wonderful, amazing- okay! So you’re probably wondering why you are here-“

    “I am-“

    “See, I knew you would! And the answer to that question is a very simple one,” the man continued, “you see, I need help with a case.”

    He paused, still smiling at Grian, almost waiting for him.

    Grian cleared his throat. “A case?”

    ───── ⋆⋅ ⋅⋆ ─────

    The Bad Boys are an enigmatic vigilante group, tending to steal from the wealthy before turning around to defend the average civilian; Grian (known to the public as Roadrunner) has grown used to this status quo, but between an irrefusable offer and damning new developments in Hero society, will things ever be able to go back to normal?

    And how is Detective Scar Goodtimes involved with this?

    Summary

    “Okay, Sherlock. What’s your guess?” Leon crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair.
    Sherry smiled, something soft in her expression.
    “It’s Grace, isn’t it?”
    His ears turned red immediately.
    Fuck… am I that predictable?
    “It is! I knew it! Well, I’m happy for you. I hope you both—”
    “Too soon, oracle. She has no idea.”
    “I’m pretty sure she does, Leon.”
    He sighed, covering his face with his hands—not out of shame, but pure exhaustion, caught between discomfort and the urge to finally admit it.
    “Well… good for her. Like I said, I’m old. Old enough to be her father. She deserves someone better than me. Someone more… available.”
    Sherry pulled a chair and sat beside him.
    “Let me tell you something, Kennedy.”
    “Mm.”
    “Twenty-eight years living in this mess. My dear friend… it’s time. We could both use a fresh start. Don’t you think?”
    He stared at his hands in silence.
    “I don’t know, Sherry… I’m a fucked-up mess.”

    Or:
    Leon and Grace start as friends and get closer, while they investigate some serious Elpis stuff at DSO.

    Summary

    Robin doesn't belong to humanity anymore. Now, she has to find her place in a vampire world she desperately wants to keep small, but which seems to keep growing instead. Is it too much to ask to be left alone with a lump of clay and some good music? Alice seems to think so.

    Between an extravagant adoption party, too much blood, a missing friend, and the mystery of her origins, Robin has to learn what it means to be a Cullen. Most days, the benefits outweigh the costs a hundredfold. Other days, she just feels like a wrench in the well-oiled machine of their family life, especially when her emerging talent drags her into hostile situations—and into the gaze of eyes so compelling she can almost forget they are red.

    If only her sister could see her now!

    Summary

    Nancy Wheeler is the girl everyone believes in. The girl everyone wants to be. Perfect grades. Perfect posture. Perfect boyfriend. Perfect future. She’s the cheer captain, captain of the debate team, honor roll every year, student of the month more times than anyone can count. Teachers trust her. Parents admire her. Friends rely on her. She built her life on being dependable, admirable, and untouchable. And for a long time, she believed in that version of herself too. Everything begins to shift when Robin Buckley enters her life. Not as a rumor. Not as an idea. As a person. Robin is awkward, honest, guarded. She doesn’t pretend. She doesn’t try to impress anyone. And somehow, Nancy finds herself drawn to her in ways she doesn’t understand.

    Robin Buckley hates Nancy Wheeler. Or that’s what she tells herself. She hates how easy everything seems for her. How everyone looks at her like she matters. How perfect her life appears. But the closer Robin gets, the harder it becomes to hate her. Because what happens if Robin Buckley, the girl who never lets anyone in, lets Nancy Wheeler see her? What happens if Nancy Wheeler, the girl everyone believes in, chooses Robin? What if the girl she hated is the one she needs?

    Summary

    Winter, 1871.

    After her husband’s death, Mulan lives alone on a remote homestead built on stolen frontier land, surviving harsh winters, hostile settlers, and the quiet guilt of a country expanding over graves.

    One storm-filled night, she finds a wounded stranger hiding in her barn.

    The man is Shan Yu — an Indigenous war leader hunted by soldiers, feared by settlers, and whispered about like a ghost story along the frontier.
    Mulan should turn him in.
    Instead, she lets him stay.
    As the mountains close around them and violence creeps ever nearer, Mulan is forced to question everything she has survived for — and whether mercy toward a dangerous man will destroy her… or save what remains of her soul.

    Summary

    This is the slow burn romantic tale of Magnus Rasmodius, the Wizard of Stardew Valley and Lilly, the woman that moves into the abandoned farm nearby. The storyline is influenced heavily by SVE and the Romanceable Rasmodius Redux Revamped mod by JelloNip, which is hands down my favorite mod for Stardew. Any changes to storyline, dialogue, or geography are my own.
    New chapters as of May 12, 2026. Sorry for the delay, my real job has been taking up all my time, but thanks for reading! HJF

    Summary

    Frat boy Jean/Fem!Reader

    ────────────────────

    A philocalist:
    someone who finds beauty in everything.

    Y/N notices the small things most people ignore, sunlight through library windows, quiet spring mornings on campus, people’s laughter, the way life keeps moving even when everything feels uncertain.

    People, though?

    People are complicated.

    And keeping them at a distance has always been easier.

    Then there’s Jean.

    A business major who secretly wanted to study art, a guy who treats every conversation like a competition and every argument like a sport.

    Somehow, between rivalry, late-night parties, and a few very bad decisions, the line between enemies and something else starts to blur.

    And the worst part?

    He might be the only thing in her life she can’t keep at arm’s length.

    Summary

    “Some marriages begin with love.
    Theirs began with a signature.

    When beloved actress Orm Kornnaphat becomes trapped in a family scandal, the solution is simple:

    marry Ling Vachirawit.

    Cold. Untouchable. Ruthless CEO of the Vachirawit empire.

    The contract comes with rules:

    no love,
    no attachment,
    and absolutely no falling for each other.

    But Orm doesn’t know Ling has already spent years loving her silently —
    through magazine covers, charity events, stolen glances, and memories carefully hidden inside a locked box no one was ever meant to find.

    What starts as a fake marriage slowly becomes something far more dangerous:

    late-night waiting, jealous touches, quiet domestic intimacy, and a love so deep it terrifies them both.

    Because Ling loves Orm carefully.

    Like someone preparing for heartbreak before happiness even begins.

    🤍 Contract wives by law.
    🖤 Soulmates by accident.
    ✨ And hopelessly in love before either of them realized it.

    ☆ U.A 💜
