Summary
As a sheltered young woman under the "protection" of your overbearing mother, the borders of your world have never stretched beyond the family songbird shop and the organ bench at church. But when your congregation joins other moral reformers in protesting against the Impera Lounge, a den of vice that flouts the law and mocks the city of Meliora’s faithful, you begin to see what you’ve been missing. Copia Emeritus, the Impera's notorious headliner, steps in to keep your name out of the papers, and what begins as gratitude soon blossoms into a forbidden affair... but when his mother dies, and yours shows her true colors, it seems like the two of you have no choice but to part. Now, on New Year’s Eve, 1927, you seek him out again... anxious for one last taste of freedom, for one more brush with sin, for a final chance to decide whether love represents salvation or damnation.
(1920s Copia x Reader AU, based on Reader #3 from my series All Else Are Castles Built in the Air.)

Summary
In a world where humans have no hope of competing on an even economic playing field with immortals, they've still got one resource they can leverage--their living blood. You're a sweet girl, just trying to get by, when a rather awkward vampire seeks shelter from the rain inside the human-geared pet store where you work. Maybe it's the way you smell, or maybe it's the way he courts you like he's terrified you're going to skip town--but a few days later, you find yourself the kept human pet of one Copia Emeritus, head of the Satanic Ministry. There's just one little problem... you're scared to be bitten.

Summary
Not all Satanists worship in the open or walk the world's busy urban streets. You're a sixth-generation Devil-worshipper from the heart of Nebraska, a woman who grew up just as sheltered as the neighboring fundamentalist Christian girls -- just for entirely different reasons. Attempting to honor one of your mother's final wishes, you take the veil as a Sister of Sin, and you're sorely tempted to give it up mere hours later -- until you cross paths with Frater Imperator. A man who's never set eyes on you in person, but who's already serenaded crowds with your name in his heart.

Summary
You’re a young professional trying to build a life for yourself after spending too long under your mother’s wing — and he’s a Satanist doing the exact same thing. An accident at the animal shelter where you work puts you in contact with Frater Imperator, a man who can hardly frighten you when you see so much of yourself in him. But how will your small town react when one of its most innocent inhabitants starts hanging around with the leader of the Satanic Ministry?

Summary
You've lived your entire life in the shadow of the Satanic Ministry's New England campus -- the cathedral in the woods where the damned gather to worship their Dark God. Still, you've never had a strong opinion about it one way or the other, until a scourge from your family's past threatens you and one of the Clergy members comes to your defense. Primo Emeritus has devoted his life to the worship of Lucifer, he wears more makeup than you do, and he's old enough to be your grandfather -- but the more you get to know him, the more you realize that this may be a match made in Hell.

Summary
“Baldwin?” Grimwood now sounded worried, and his yellow hound whined in sympathy. “What are you doing?”
“Explaining the benefits package to our lovely applicant.” Armacost’s eyes glinted with mischief, and Elyse wasn’t sure if she wanted to dive under the nearest sofa or into his lap. “In addition to your pay, you can have all the fish you want. A room all your own. We’re safe here, protected by the Governor’s edict. Monsters are expressly forbidden at Grixdale Hall. You can chase rabbits outside and laze in the sun and let your ears and tail wag free, and if anyone makes you the least bit uncomfortable, I will personally make their life a living hell.”
Elyse should have taken offense at this. The insinuation that she was little more than an animal, that her loyalty could be purchased with some fish and rabbits and the freedom to cavort in the sun. But as her eyes flicked between Armacost and Grimwood and a basket of fish so fresh that even she could barely smell it, she realized what these unconventional men were really offering her.
Freedom from fear.

Summary
'If Dinah didn’t catch her breath, she was going to suffocate. “Mr. Iibra, we’re not the same species. You can’t mean—”
“Species be damned,” he growled. “Has it never occurred to you that from where I’m standing, you are one half of an absolutely stunning il’venoma’i?”
Dinah felt her nose burning. “And you are one half of... of the handsomest, dearest man I have ever known.”
Her confession chased a soft noise of disbelief from his lips. “Then come to me.”'

Summary
In this universe, the Red Dinner never happened.
In this universe, cell phones can't be traced.
This is an irreverent, image-based, profanity-laced crackfic in text format. As in, phones. As in, everyone is TEXTING one another. It's about as weird as you'd think. And it all starts with an FBI trainee duct taped to a fridge...
