Summary
The city of Titan is a sprawling megacity whose residents live in the shadow of Lyra, the utopia hovering far above. On Lyra, the ultra rich live conveniently removed from the squalor of the surface world. Goods bound for Lyra from the surface are loaded on transport vessels which are tethered to the docks high above the city; goods that the more powerful citizens of Titan will pay handsomely to possess. Runners are the only ones who can retrieve those goods, at great risk.
Among the hundreds of millions who call Titan home, eight men struggle just as the vast majority do. Running is the only thing that can save them from ruin, and the promise of riches is too tantalizing to ignore. Can they capitalize on the greed of those better off than them, or are they doomed to fall from the tightrope as so many before them have? -

The Architect.
For two years, life in the Glade had been predictable in some ways- every night, the Maze doors closed. Every month, the Box came up. And any time a boy found himself within the Maze after sunset, it meant certain death. These were the certainties of life as they knew it. So imagine their surprise when this month, the box came up right on time with fresh supplies and a fresh Greenie--only, this Greenie was a girl.

No smut. I do not own The Maze Runner or any of its characters. OC and all plot lines attached to her are mine. ❤️

Summary
The saying "opposites attract" applied to Taehyung and Jungkook. Taehyung, gymnast, outgoing, sunny. Jungkook, cross country runner, studious, shy, introverted. Taehyung was sure Jungkook would stay by his side as he chased Olympic gold. Instead, Jungkook disappeared, just before graduation day. Ten years later, Jungkook is a children's book author and father to a charming little girl. When she begs to be allowed to take gymnastics at the local gym (al her friends are going!), he agrees, because it's not gymnastics that he put behind him, but one special gymnast.
Or did he?
Jungkook is thrown off balance when he learns his child's coach is none other than Taehyung. Taehyung with the same sunny disposition and brilliant smile.
Who are his eyes looking at? Jungkook is sure Taehyung isn't look at him.
Is he? -

Summary
"The prototype is gone," he says, breathless. "Someone took it."
Yoongi and Taehyung exchange a look, the weight of Hoseok's announcement pulling them into a different state of mind. The transformation is immediate, the shift from home to mission seamless and practiced. Yoongi stands, the chair scraping against the floor, while Taehyung's playful demeanor falls away, his eyes zeroing in on Hoseok like a hawk.
Or, a dystopian cyberpunk AU where Jungkook steals something and accidentally helps himself and 6 other very dangerous men find what they thought they lost.

Summary
"High school was chaotic enough... until the world ended."
Penelope didn't ask to be the main character in the apocalypse- but when the world turned upside down, she didn't exactly sit back and let it happen, either. With a sharp tongue, a sarcastic streak, and an unshakable loyalty to her chaotic group of classmates, she's doing everything she can to keep them alive, even if it means dragging them kicking and screaming through the end of the world.
What started as just another weird day in class quickly became a deadly fight for survival- secrets, betrayal, hatred, and all. But even in the blood-soaked halls and with danger around every corner, there's still time for inside jokes, friendships, and the occasional side eye.
Because if the world's gonna burn, they might as well go out laughing
