Felicity Elizabeth Briggs isn't normal. Not that being the daughter of two renowned FBI agents was ever "normal" but ever since that frightful day in the lab six years ago when her Aunt Scarlett Hawkins was brutally murdered right in front of her, Felicity has been extra abnormal. She doesn't know why she can see the things that she does, but she isn't alone. After a string of serial murders that occur in her very own boarding school, the FBI arrive on the scene and Felicity is once again reunited with her parents who she hasn't seen in years. Not only that, but since the last time she saw them, they've met and looked over kids her age who are just as abnormal as she is. When a new case involving a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas requires her parents and the other Naturals' help, Felicity agrees to join them and along the way uncovers old secrets from her Aunt's unsolved murder from all those years ago. *updates roughly once a month

Insanity is one word to describe the state Michael Townsend feels himself in has he is persisting he isn't grieving, he can't grieve someone he hasn't lost. But can his mind be taken off his problems? the darkness that wanted to take him as he lay in his cold bed. The answers is somewhere between waking up and going to sleep, the only moments Michael can see her dark brown eyes again.

Used to staying up all night, caught up with the past Lenore shared with her twin brother, she never expected anyone to be up with her. The dim light of the moon shone on his face as she couldn't help but question him. "Why me? Why now?" She pleaded for answers but all she got was a simple shrug. Lenore wished everything was as simple as that shrug. The creaks behind her growing louder as the patterns around her grew stronger, a stranger in the shadows. Was Lenore watching or being watched?

LIA Zhang is not soft. She is not broken in public. And she is done being rewritten. In the original series, Lia's story was never fully told-reduced to sharp lines, half-hints, and silence. This fic exists to change that. To explore the trauma beneath her composure, the strength behind her humor, and the cost of surviving something no one ever truly sees. Description After the final case, the Naturals are supposed to be done running. Instead, they're sent back-to Lia Zhang's past. When Agent Briggs is reassigned, the team relocates to the city Lia once escaped, the place she never planned to see again. Soon after their arrival, a series of disturbing incidents begins: surveillance with no clear threat, messages with no sender, and DVDs labeled like lessons-each one exposing fragments of a life Lia buried long ago. The case isn't about bodies. Not at first. It's about belief. Control. And the quiet violence of being told who you are. Told primarily through Lia's POV, with Michael's alongside hers, this story follows a case that doesn't just test the Naturals' skills-but forces them to confront what survival really means.

𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 (adj). impossible to erase or forget third and FINAL book in the "ineffable" series, following the plot of bad blood by jennifer lynn barnes. when vada hartley joined the fbi's naturals program, she wasn't chasing glory-she was chasing grief. her father's murder. her best friend's disappearance. a childhood haunted by memories that weren't just hers-they were felt. seen. carved into her. but now, everything vada thought she knew about that night has been shattered. everything she thought she knew about her life was cracking. the cult that took everything from her is still alive. and they've been watching her far longer than she ever realized. as the naturals dig into a secret group known only as the nine, vada starts piecing together a terrifying truth: this isn't just about her father's killer. it's about her mother, her family. it's about a legacy written into her blood-one she was never supposed to survive. the deeper they go, the closer the danger gets. bodies are showing up. lines are being crossed. and vada is starting to wonder if she's the one being hunted. this isn't just another case. this is personal. and some things don't fade. some things leave indelible marks.

ameliorate (v.) to make a bad situation, better. book TWO in the "ineffable" series. (based on the book series, the naturals by jennifer lynn barnes) IN WHICH vada hartley is still learning how to live with everything she feels- the memories that don't belong to her, the boys who might, trying to make sense of what's hers and what's not- the memories she feels, the grief she carries, the love she might be allowed to want. the team is called to vegas for a high-profile case wrapped in secrets and patterns. the case asking too much of her mind, and even more of her heart. michael is warm, constant, and kind in a way that feels safe. dean is distant but impossible not to notice-especially when he looks at her like he's trying not to. and vada doesn't know what it means to choose, only that someone might end up hurt. as the stakes rise and the clues start to come together, vada is left trying to make sense of everything-what she knows, what she wants, and who she is without someone else's memory pressing into her skin.

ineffable, (a.) too great or extreme to be expressed or described in words. IN WHICH vada hartley doesn't just remember-she feels. every wound, every whisper, every trace of the past buried in the things people leave behind. it's a gift. or a curse. depending on the day. sent to join the FBI's off-the-books naturals program, vada finds herself surrounded by other teens trained to see what others can't. but while the others analyze from a distance, vada sinks into the emotional weight of every case. and it's getting harder to come back up. michael townsend understands that kind of heaviness-the need to take on hurt before it has the chance to break anyone else. he recognizes something in vada that he doesn't have words for. he's not sure he wants to. dean redding sees it too. her softness. her strength. the way her pain mirrors his own in all the worst ways. the three of them are caught in something raw and unspoken, but there's no time to untangle it-not when the past is clawing its way back into the present. and vada can feel it coming. vada has an emotive memory: the instinctive ability to absorb, retain, and relive the emotional states of others tied to specific memories or environments. im simpler terms: vada doesn't just remember events-she remembers how it felt for everyone involved. she experiences emotional energy attached to people, places, and moments. sometimes it's a gift. sometimes it's too much. *lowercase intended* *BOOK 1*
