Summary
John is a loser. A loner. A hopeless, broken young man trapped between a rock and a hard place—or perhaps, between trauma and dead-end jobs.
Yearning for relief from his crippling loneliness and broken heart, he comes across a sex doll with the face of an angel and the body of a warrior; a beautiful, steel-hard warmaiden who is as tall as she is gorgeous and as warm as she is strong.
In the muscular arms of this battle-forged beauty, John hopes to find comfort and love. In her bountiful curves, he seeks softness and care, and in her abundant muscles, he seeks the strength and protection he so sorely lacks.
She is the strongest, most beautiful, most impossible woman on the planet… but nothing is as it seems. As the nights roll by and his heart begins to heal, John wonders if there’s more to this astonishing woman than meets the eye, and a series of paranormal phenomena soon reveals a much more sinister nature at the core of this doll’s heart.
As reality around him begins to break and unfold, John will embark on a journey of love, self-discovery, and acceptance that will see him making his first friends, meeting his first love, and escaping the throes of an unquenchable demon dominatrix.

Summary
“I guess I always knew he’d be the one to ruin my teenage dream.”
He laughed, but it was so dry that Minho didn't know where it came from.
“I really thought that was it— I’d just pack my stuff, vanish, crawl back into whatever hole I came from. Or maybe you’d call the cops, and we’d drift off into separate lives. End up buried one day in different graves.” He swallowed, ran a thumb along his lower lip as if erasing some memory, then exhaled slowly. “But for a moment, you gave me hope, hyung. That was the cruelest thing you could have done to me.”
Just as the police prepare to declare a missing boy dead, Minho begins to feel the past creeping back in.

Summary
Reese didn’t come to Hawkins looking for monsters. Or... anything, really. But in a town like this—and a senior year like this—sometimes the strangest things aren't under your bed. They glance at you in the hallway. Or peer at you from behind the Dungeon Master screen.
A quiet story about a cleric and a bard. Moonlight and Shadow. A Church Mouse and a Rebel Knight. A girl and the boy she didn’t expect to understand her, but always hoped would.
Slow burn. Soft moments. Sacred ones. For anyone who’s ever believed in both unicorns and redemption.

Friendships, relationships and sexualities are all challenged and no one comes out unscathed. But in the end everyone leaves better than they started.

Summary
Horrified by her children’s escalating closeness, Joanna Lannister sends Jaime away to boarding school. But the separation only tangles the twins further. Or maybe they were never untangled in the first place. And then tragedy, meant to break them apart, only cements the mess.
From the shores of Lake Erie to British estates, luxury hotels, and a New York penthouse, this story asks the “what if” of the Lannisters living in the 1990s: a wealthy American finance dynasty, with Jaime and Cersei trying (and obviously failing) to be normal teenagers. This isn’t high school fluff. It’s a slow descent into chaos.
Music isn’t just a backdrop here. Every chapter has a song, every mistake its soundtrack: muddy kisses at Woodstock, Kurt & Courtney cosplay, and failed attempts to tame a left-handed Stratocaster. Trent Reznor wishes he could score this story.

Summary
“What’ll it be?” the man asked, his voice low, a touch rasping. And very clearly British.
Harry’s heart suddenly went galloping, his limbs going cold and tingly. That voice was familiar, but not quite right. He’d had moments since the war where he’d think he saw a flash of Sirius in a crowd and follow intently only to realize it was just any other man. He’d be at a cafe and hear someone laugh and jump to his feet, spinning wildly, looking for Remus’ scarred face and finding only a bewildered stranger. It was like that jerk from the brink of sleep, as your body thinks it's falling; completely involuntary. It always left him feeling angry at that endless, unkillable hope. He swallowed, trying to soothe and suppress it, searching the other man’s face for something familiar.
It was unremarkable in every way; narrow, with brown collar length hair tucked behind ears. The man had unfamiliar grey eyes, maybe 35 or 40. He wore a simple muggle t-shirt and jeans. His arms were wirey. He was maybe the right height to be Snape, but everything else was…. Off. Not dark enough in coloring. Nose completely average sized. Eyes nowhere close. That voice though.

Summary
Fourth year at Hogwarts was supposed to be about the Triwizard Tournament, but when Hermione finds herself pregnant after a traumatic accident, she and Harry carry a secret too dangerous to reveal—especially with Voldemort’s shadow looming over them. Ron, clumsy yet loyal, steps in to play a role he cannot truly bear, trying to shield them from a world too cruel to understand.
Set in 1994, in a world of sexism, silence, and missing sex education, three teenagers are forced to grow up far too quickly. What begins as concealment becomes a fourth trial: learning what it means to love, to protect, and to survive.
📌 This story spans from the Triwizard Tournament to the final battle. With each chapter, the plot grows darker, more complex, and more real.
⚠ Content Warning: Explores relationships, moral dilemmas, and the weight of choices. Heavy drama, angst, and lasting consequences. Canon-compliant in essence, but with unexpected twists that change everything.
Relationships: Relationship exploration throughout the story. For those wondering: No, this is not a harem fic. I promise Harry is stressed for entirely different reasons.
How far would you go to protect a secret?
