Lance can't decide whether he wants to live to his dad's expectations by joining the Air Force or live his own dream by joining the basketball league.

(18+) (Sex and Language) Vampires are primarily women. Evolved from humans, they are the apex predator: A male human cannot resist them. In the Vampire matriarchy, protecting each other and the Secret is everything. Male Vampires are a genetic 'mistake'. They are less powerful than females but are still far stronger than humans. A freshly turned Man is normally the living definition of a 'Bad Boy'. More powerful than a human and unable to control their newfound carnal needs. Males are often killed rather than take a chance that they will reveal 'The Secret' by running around seducing human women against their will. Adrian is troublingly different. The Vampire Council assigns his Vampire lover (and accidental creator) Jessica, and her bisexual lover Helen to watch over him and decide: Kill him or keep him? The two short stories 'Becky' and 'Nova' delve deeper into the Crew, and the Vampire/human relationship. Love. Sex. Influence. The lengths Vampires will go in maintaining the Secret.

Finnley doesn't think that their life could get any worse. She believes that she is unwanted and unvalued, forgotten by the people that were supposed to love and care for her her entire life. She was told that their parents dropped her off on the steps of a shabby run-down orphanage and never looked back. However, soon Finnley will learn that this is actually far from the truth. Their life finally seems to be starting to take a turn for the better when they get a personal internship with none other than Tony Stark himself along with the resident nerd, Peter Parker. Even though Finnley is still fighting many of their personal demons, she starts to open up to those around her, but of course not too much. Finnley likes to think that they finally have a little control over their life, at least that is until some very strange happenings occur when an odd war criminal that claims to be a god shows up and suddenly everything Finnley thought they knew is thrown out the window. She believes that there is much more to the raven-haired greasy god than he lets on, and she is right. However, there is also a lot more that neither of them knows about the other that they will soon have to discover together. Will this new information, information that brings to light something that Loki thought was forever lost, push the two troublemakers apart, or will it pull them together and create an unbreakable bond that threatens the sanity of everyone around them? ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── for the most part, this is just a crack fic with a little angst sprinkled in and so much fluff it will make you barf <333 ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── proudly featuring Jef the line-break ( Jef's official account can be found at @JefTheLineBreak )
