Summary
A post‑Pacifist slow‑burn Sans/Reader romance about healing, magic, prejudice and found family.
You work in a bookstore. He’s a skeleton with a soft heart, dangerous magic and a talent for making you laugh, even when the world feels heavy. Papyrus adopts you immediately (and with great enthusiasm).
As monsters struggle to integrate on the surface, you’re pulled into Snowdin’s orbit: political tension, magical injuries, protective brothers, ensemble chaos and a relationship that grows from banter and awkward sweetness into real vulnerability… and eventually, shameless smut.

Summary
In a world where alphas rule, betas are sold as slaves, and omega are merely property for the alphas to use and breed, true mates feels like little more than a cruel fairy tale.
Aziraphale and Azriel Fell are alpha brothers, born to Gabriel Fell, a cruel alpha like no other. Moved to the Americas at a young age where they lost their mother on the trail out West, both boys have suffered. Their father's fists and perchance for emotional and physical violence only adds to the scars until they are grown men of their own, still stuck under his iron fist.
Everything changes when Gabriel brings home a redheaded omega with a bit of a spark still in him. This omega sets off a chain of events that cannot be stopped until the whole Fell household is turned upside down.
Can the course of true mates set things right or will alpha and omega be doomed to fade, forever separated by evil and eternity?

Während Bellatrix alles daran setzt, Hermine zu brechen, kämpft diese nicht nur ums Überleben, sondern auch darum, sich selbst nicht zu verlieren.
Niemand ist vor Bellatrix sicher. Sie entscheidet willkürlich, wen sie bestraft, foltert oder zu ihrem nächsten Spiel macht. Sie foltert nicht aus Wut, sondern aus Vergnügen.

Summary
"I don't want to be different."
Pawbert Lynxley spent his whole life seeking his father's love. When that love never came, he made a choice. A terrible, premeditated choice that nearly killed Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. Now he sits in a holding cell, abandoned by the family he sacrificed everything to please, facing a kill order from his own father.
He deserves to rot. Everyone knows it. Except those assigned to protect him don't see a monster. They see a mammal who was taught that love has a price, and who paid it in full, only to be discarded.
We Can Fix Pawbert is a 104-episode, 5-season series exploring what happens after a villain's fall. It asks whether someone who did monstrous things for love can learn to be loved differently. Whether apology and forgiveness are separate journeys. Whether found family can replace what was never truly there.
Real consequences. Real deaths. Real love. You aren't too damaged to be loved. You never were.
Don't be intimidated by the word count! It's "only" 700k words for the base series of 104 chapters: Book 1 (175k, 24c), Book 2 (165k, 24c), Book 3 (60k, 8c), Book 4 (155k, 24c), Book 5 (145k, 24c). Post-series one-shots releasing Saturdays or Sundays.

Summary
“The whole world remembers Thomas and Martha. Gotham loved them, or almost all of them I suppose. But even then,” Bruce said, his voice going hot with anger, “it wasn’t enough to save them. Or to bring them justice. No one will ever know who killed them. If they couldn’t help me, who’s going to help Dick?”
“You will,” Clark blurted out, a pure instinct behind the knowledge.

Summary
What happens when a Muggle walks into Hogwarts and refuses to be intimidated by it?
Elara Vance is about to find out.
Severus Snape was never supposed to survive the Battle of Hogwarts. Yet, against all odds, he does.
After surviving Nagini's attack, Severus Snape returns to Hogwarts, carrying the scars of a life he has no intention of discussing and a reputation he has no intention of repairing. He expects the castle to be exactly as he left it.
He does not expect her.
A Muggle with an unsettling ability to see through people, Elara has her own reasons for keeping the past buried. She has no interest in Severus Snape's reputation, his bitterness, or the walls he has spent a lifetime building—and absolutely no intention of being intimidated by him.
And Severus has no interest in her.
At least, that is what they both tell themselves.
What begins as an uneasy acquaintance slowly becomes something neither of them knows how to name. But beneath the quiet routines of Hogwarts, old wounds have a way of resurfacing—and some secrets are far more dangerous than either of them expected.
Some people survive the war. That does not mean they escape it.

Summary
Murdoc was a devil but at least he was a devil that 2D knew. He's not sure what to make of another cocky green man stepping in where there was the absence of the first, other than to just do as he's told as per the usual.
"Man, you gotta show me the ropes. My bass is just hobby-play, I don't know famous band shit." Ace tells him, idly using his switchblade to pick his nails.
That makes 2D's assumptions falter, and suddenly he's the one leading something.

“I understand you so much better now!” Tim jeered maniacally, not seeming to notice Dick’s attempts to shepherd him back and away. “Oh my god, how do you even think straight?”
“Timmy, that’s enough, come on—“
Tim shoved a hand hard against Dick’s sternum, and Jason could see it then, a sharp shift in his mood, attempting to move around him before Dick’s arm caught him at the waist again. “Seriously, not that it’s a competition, I mean, I would win—but I suppose you did claw your way out of a grave whereas I didn’t even reach mine, so, tomayto tomahto—“

Summary
When Harry is forced to endure a summer under Snape’s care, he’s uncertain he has the will to bear through whatever his professor has in store for him.
With the ghost of Cedric over his shoulder, the echo of his relatives’ treatment ringing in his ears, and the absence of anyone he thought still cared about him weighing on his chest, he knows that with just a little more pressure he may totally crumble.
As Harry is plagued by the many consequences of Voldemort’s return, Severus attempts to suffer through the burden of arming the boy’s mind against his original master, all while continuing his subterfuge at the Dark Lord’s feet.
When a connection of consciousness is wound between them, and certain truths about Harry are revealed, they have no choice but to bend to the consequences, and hope they emerge on the other side better for it.
