    Summary

    Thomas Thorne absolutely had his life together. Had his longterm girlfriend left him for his cousin? Yes.
    Was he all but tucking tail and moving far, far away from both Isabel and Francis and their horrid deeds? Maybe, but that's all besides the point.
    Thomas had his life together because he was determined not to let this get the better of him. So he packed his bags, submitted an application to a rather desperate sounding job post for a middle school English teacher, and forced himself to not look back.

    Summary

    Thomas turned to him, excitement written all over his face. “We can prove them wrong! I need to show Isabelle that I’m capable of serious relationships, and you need to show Anthony that you’re emotionally available and comfortable with your sexuality. So we fake date! Each other, I mean. You know, we go to events together and things, make them really jealous. Then, when we’ve got them where we want them, we stage a break-up! We’ll have them eating out of our hands in no time!”

    James thought about it. Amazingly, Thomas was right. The beauty of the plan was that it was so simple. It would work in both of their favours. It would make both Isabelle and Anthony realise that they were incorrect. What could possibly go wrong?

    -----

    When Thomas and James, mortal enemies and reluctant co-workers at Pat's bookshop, call a temporary truce, their friends are thrilled. Until, of course, the pair reveal that they are faking a relationship to make Isabelle and Anthony jealous. But as the boundaries between real and fake become increasingly blurry, all anyone can do is watch as Thomas and James figure out the real reason behind five years of animosity.

    Summary

    “He’s in love!” Alison said, lying flat on Bella’s bed, staring at the ceiling.
    “100%” Bella agreed with her best friend. “There is no way he’s not!”
    “But with who…”
    The pair pondered, Alison stroking Beans and Bella pursing her lips as she spun round and round in her spinny chair.

    Summary

    Robin's been living in this castle for some time now, he's surprised when the bitter old woman who owns it brings in a sickly man. He's even more surprised when the sickly man turns out to be King Arthur, Ruler of Great Britain and the only one who can wield Excalibur.

    or :
    In Kaamelott, Volais 6, episode 9, Cydra heard when Karadoc gave the power back to Arthur, and because of that she reconsiders letting Lancelot inside. That causes a chain-event where Arthur ends up succumbing to his injuries in Tintagel, one year and a half after they admitted him. As punishment for his unheoric death, the Gods sentence him to becoming a ghost.
    Coincidentally, the land where the castle of Tintagel used to reside will over time be replaced by a mansion called 'Button House'.

    Summary

    The Captain was finally at peace with his life, his own war was now complete and he could at last move on with everything.

    He now had a family who, despite all their resistance, did genuinely want to spend time with him. The Captain now felt loved, not only by his boyfriend but by everyone that surrounded them, encapsulating his life into one existence.

    But now he had a new dilemma, what now? The afterlife was different to the "real world", he didn't need a job to pay bills, because everything was free. He no longer needed his uniform because there was no war, but without his uniform he didn't know who he was.

    He was slowly morphing into James and he didn't know what to do.

     

    OR the one where The Captain doesn't know who he is because the afterlife in inconceivably different to the over-world and he struggles to cope (a little).

    Summary

    “Favour? What are you talking about?” Thomas scoffed dismissively “I don’t owe you anything, Robin!”

    “Do too! Remember? 1825?”

    Thomas did remember. He remembered every day, in fact, because part of him wondered if Robin would keep his word or had even remembered himself. His disgusted facade was made of stone, though, for the Poet’s self-respect would never let him admit the suspense for the last two-hundred years had been exhaustingly titillating.

    Or: Robin never forgets what he’s owed, not even bets from long ago.

    Summary

    The same info had been asked from them all: name, date of birth, date of death, cause of death, and then-

    “Do you have any questions?”

    The Captain watched from behind as Thomas' stance straightened in eagerness. “Do you know where I could find Isabelle?”

    He kicked himself. It was obvious now. Of course, everyone he'd ever known in life was going to be here. Everyone, including Major Anthony Havers.

    ---

    Set following the show's finale: the ghosts are sucked off, the Captain and Havers reunite in the afterlife. They address everything - including what happened on VE Day - and how they feel about each other. Can they overcome their baggage and get their happy ending?

    Canon-compliant BBC Ghosts epilogue.

    Summary

    Some say Keramzin House is haunted by the ghosts of those who've died over the decades - a half-wolf, half-man who roams the grounds, the smell of burning toast, and a roiling mass of darkness lurking in the shadows. No one knows the full extant of it until the house is inherited by a distant relative of the Duke of Keramzin, and the ghosts fight back.

    A Grishaverse Ghosts AU where the crows are ghosts, which means pretty much everyone dies. Please check the tags! The fic cycles through the deaths (seven in total) and finishes with Alina & Mal inheriting the house. If you need additional information about triggers, check the end notes. There are spoilers for the Grishaverse trilogy and for the UK version of Ghosts throughout.

    Summary

    His poems are always about love, and when he reflects back on this, he’s reminded yet again of his overly kind, borderline obsessive (somewhat, he doesn’t think they’re necessarily obsessive, per se, no, just dramatic shows of his fancies, infatuations, maybe) personality. Reminded of how he gets hung up on the small things and focuses on the minuscule, needn’t of worry things. The colour of someone’s shirt, or how his mother said she wanted to take up embroidery, the small things that really shouldn’t impact his life. But, they do, that’s what a poet does, isn’t it? They’re the, supposedly, most open form of a person. Expressing themselves in lyrics and sonnets that make no sense to anyone but them. And in turn, they fixate on the most minute problems, trying to transform it into something incomprehensible to the self-absorbed, egotistical aristocracy surrounding them. Attempting to make the mundane into something telling, a benevolent little secret between the words on the page and themselves.

    in other words: a character study. because that's the only thing i can write, apparently

    Summary

    Thomas looked aghast. “Are you having a laugh? A long weekend spent in a small space with you lot?”

    Pat's suggestion of a break away on a hire canal boat hadn't had the enthusiastic reception he'd hoped for.

    “Quite, it'll be terribly cramped.” Fanny turned away from the conversation in disapproval. “Will we even fit?!”

    Julian cackled and moved to make a remark of a predictable nature. Pat cut him off.

    -

    A canal boat, a narrowboat, a barge - whatever you call it, the Ghost Group are hiring one for a long weekend. Some are going to love it, some are going to hate it; but one thing is consistent: they all have very different aspirations for their countryside holiday on the waterways.

    Will there be mutiny? Will someone end up walking the plank? What could possibly go wrong...?

    Summary

    Based on an idea i had after seeing a misspelling for CBS ghosts, so instead of CBS it was Cbeebies Ghosts, which then evolved into the ghosts but they are dolls in a dollshouse that live in a old attic

    Summary

    “Affirmation meant so much more from someone you care about. When someone you love assures you, that must be one of the most plainly beautiful feelings we can experience? Someone we would give anything to, someone we would do anything for. Thomas cared about her more than anything. She had his heart and anything she wanted of him.”

    Thomas is a regency era poet. Ironic much, a poet unable to describe what love feels like, when he feels it so much purer than many others. When his final breaths are drawn for the love of his life?

    Summary

    Sam Król held many secrets in his life, but even more in his afterlife. What happens when he dies alone and keeps his whole existence anonymous to the inhabitants of the once thriving Button House? After spending a certain time in the woods, hidden away to the point he can't keep track of time, he decides enough is enough when a new Lady and Lord of the house arrive.

     

    many of sam's traits are similar to mine, this is because i am miserable and a maladaptive daydreamer.
    i hope no one is surprised that thomas is the love interest.

    p.s. i probably won't update this after the school holidays so pls don't get ur hopes up !!
