Valeria Jackson has survived more than most people do in a lifetime. Two wars. Countless losses. A childhood traded for survival. With the world finally safe, she leaves behind everything she's ever known-the battlefields, the heartbreak, the ghosts that refuse to stay buried. Seeking something she's never truly had, Valeria disappears into Gotham, a city as bruised and restless as she is. It's not kind, it's not safe, but it's far from the people and memories that haunt her steps. But some battles never really end... they just follow you home. In a city built on crime, masks, and broken heroes, Valeria must decide who she wants to be: the girl shaped by war, or the woman strong enough to outlive it. Eventual Jason Todd x OC Disclaimer: All rights to anything outside of Valeria go to DC and Rick Riordan Not Edited Yet I have so many ideas I'm trying to get them all written down before I forget! I will edit it once the story is completed

Everyone knows Damian Wayne left Gotham to "find himself." What no one knows is that he never intended to come back. For years, the Batfamily waited-patient, worried, hopeful. Damian's rare check-ins were brief and practical, just enough to prove he was alive. But as time stretched on and silence became the norm, even Bruce began to wonder what his son was running toward... or what he was running from. The truth was far softer than any of them imagined. Somewhere along his journey across the world, Damian met Marinette Dupain-Cheng-a brilliant young designer with a gentle smile and a warmth that disarmed him more effectively than any blade. Love was never part of Damian's training, never part of his destiny, yet with her it felt effortless. Natural. Inevitable. Paris wasn't the city he chose. She was. What began as quiet companionship grew into something bright enough to eclipse the shadows he carried. And for the first time in his life, Damian allowed himself to stay. To build something of his own. To choose happiness over legacy. He just... never told his family. Now Damian lives a life they know nothing about-a life filled with color, creation, and a girl who makes him forget the weight of his name. But secrets have a way of surfacing, and the Batfamily is about to discover that the son they lost didn't disappear. He simply found a reason not to come home.

"Everything has a purpose and a reason, I believe it so." Many have tried and failed to get under Iris' skin. Whether it be calling her gruesome names and spreading nasty rumors about her teenage pregnancy. Or maybe, it would be about her deadbeat ex-boyfriend who now presides in prison. They've even tried to go as low as gossiping about how her parents kicked her out when they found out they're precious daughter gave her virtue to a delinquent. All these things were, in fact, true; yet Iris remained full of love and nurturing to the living things around her. But what happens when she meets a family of the undead?

Kallistrate was never a darling of the altars. Raised in Sparta and rumored to be Hades' blood, she learned early that survival is a craft. Her gifts-hearing the dead, bending shadow, keeping her spine steady-make her a useful problem the gods can't ignore. When she's sent to Ithaca to marry Prince Telemachus, she finds a court rotting under a hundred hungry men and a queen who refuses to bend. Ares trains her at dawn. Athena tests her at dusk. The island's dead crowd her name with pleas, and every rite becomes a battlefield. But Kallistrate is no one's spectacle. With Penelope at her side and Telemachus at her shoulder, she turns custom into strategy: sacred lamps, feast-day oaths, the old challenges that remember who a king is. As omens sharpen and a beggar with storm-bright eyes kneels at a dais, Ithaca's halls brace for the reckoning. A lyrical retelling filled with political intrigue, found courage, and slow-burn devotion, The Shadowed Song of Ithaca asks what it costs to keep a home-and whether a girl made of shadows can write her own ending. For fans of Madeline Miller, Jennifer Saint, Jorge Rivera-Herrans and mythic romantasy with sharp edges. Content notes: violence; death/grief; gods' manipulation; trauma mentions; court/political tension, mentions of assault (NEVER graphic), men being intimidating.

I'm always at a crossroads. My family wants me dead and The Avengers don't trust me. I've never felt so alone. I need to stop my father. I need to find a way to control my powers. I need to find a way to stop the God of Mischief from getting into my book collection. -- "Look at it this way, you been given an opportunity to turn over a new leaf. You can either push it to the side or you'll take that leaf. Maya, I know how hard it is to come back from the dark but just remember that without the dark there is no light. There is no balence. No harmony. No harmony, no stability. It is up to you. Either you will stay in your cell and close yourself off from the world or you'll embrace yourself for who you are and do some good to make up for past mistakes. The decision doesn't lie with Fury or even me, it all lies with you. Whether you'll get up and fight or let the dark things consume you." "So how do I overcome the dark?" "Simple. Find some light to guide you." RECENTLY COMPLETED ✅

After a battle gone wrong, Percy Jackson is pulled into an ancient rift in time and space by a god's interference.

There, he is discovered by Telemachus, the son of Odysseus - a boy grappling with the weight of his absent father's legend and the ghosts of war. What begins as a rescue becomes a journey of discovery, as Percy's presence threatens to change the course of a story written in stone.
