Demetria Rose Barrett has spent her whole life in Woodsboro - and most of it caught between Billy Loomis and Stu Macher. The three of them grew up side by side: Billy, her quiet anchor; Stu, her reckless storm; Demi, the loyal secret keeper who never quite let anyone see what she needed. Now, as senior year unfolds, the bonds that once felt unbreakable are shifting. Sidney Prescott is suddenly at Billy's side, Tatum Riley is wrapped up in Stu's arms, and Demi finds herself on the outside looking in - torn between longing, jealousy, and a love she can't admit out loud. But in Woodsboro, secrets never stay buried for long. As whispers turn to screams and friendships fracture under the weight of blood and betrayal, Demetria must face a terrifying truth: sometimes the people you love most are the ones holding the knife. 💥 Themes: Love as Obsession/Obsession as Love "They loved her like a secret they couldn't tell - or maybe like a secret they couldn't bury." Love and Violence - and the Thin Line Between "Some loves cut deeper than knives - the difference is that knives don't whisper your name." Hidden Pain and Emotional Numbness "Her house wasn't haunted. It was just quiet enough to sound like one." Identity and Self-Deception "Everyone wore a mask. Hers just smiled better." Friendship and Betrayal "Trust was currency in Woodsboro - and everyone was broke." Survival vs. Surrender "She'd never killed anyone, but she knew what it felt like to want to." {Billy Loomis X fem! OC) {Mature Themes Hinted} {Adult Language} {Strong Violence} Word Count: 156,707 Started October 5, 2025 - Finished January 15, 2026

The year after her brother James graduates, Teddy Potter returns to Hogwarts for her final year. With the Marauders gone, it should be a quiet, peaceful year despite the mounting tensions in the world outside of school. The problem, naturally, lies with Regulus Black, the broody boy who just might be the most effortlessly aggravating person she's ever met in her whole life. And for someone who was raised with James Potter, that's saying a LOT. ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── "You know, it must be exhausting to be such a fucking prick all the time."

Dawn Rosier/ Tom Riddle No soul beyond the Dark Lord's inner circle has ever laid eyes upon his sons. They exist as specters, whispers in the shadows, their names nothing more than echoes of something unseen. Yet, as all empires seek longevity, so does their ruler. The Dark Lord has decreed it-his bloodline will not fade into obscurity. It will endure. It will multiply. It will be bound by legacy, sealed in blood. Mattheo Riddle, the youngest, is a creature of indulgence, a man who plays with fate as if it were nothing more than a game of cards. A gambler. A wasted heir. There is no use binding him to a wife. But Tom... Tom is different. The firstborn. The one forged not in vice, but in duty. A blade honed by silence, sharpened by obedience. He does not falter. He does not waver. And now, he must wed. Not for love. Not for want. But because his father commands it. Because he must be the start to an unending stream of bloodshed and violence. It all should start with him. But the task would soon evolve into something neither he nor Dawn Rosier thought it could be. Yearning, Despair, Wrath and Crumbling. A story of sense and sensation, Past and Present as eternal enemies of every day. This is the story of Dawn Rosier. Tropes: Forced marriage Slow burn Age gap Gothic I own Dawn Rosier's character.

It has been over a year since the murder of his wife, Lily, and James Potter wishes every day that it is simply a nightmare that he will wake up from. Unfortunately, it isn't and in the wake of her death, James finds himself as a single parent to their son, Harry. The Boy-Who-Lived is known all around the wizarding world as the one to defeat Lord Voldemort on the same night that Lily was killed as the proclaimed "Dark Lord" attempted to rid of the child as well, yet failed. However, James is just trying to do his best in raising Harry in the most normal fashion as he can possibly muster but it's not easy. With one of his former best friends in Azkaban for the betrayal to the Order and his two remaining best friends not on speaking terms, James finds himself drowning in stress. Yet, relief comes in the form of a young woman, named Renata, and their first encounter is nothing short of a chaotic mess. But at the same time, it's the first thing that's made James laugh in months.

Finn Lynch lives a quiet, tranquil life in a rural village in the mountains. Her life may lack spontaneity and excitement, but at least it's peaceful. And if it's a little lonely too, then she can't complain too much - she's still happy, after all. When her uncle asks her to house a defector from the magical war he's involved in, Finn agrees reluctantly despite her concerns that the presence of Regulus Black in her home will disrupt the careful peace she's been cultivating for years. Nothing could prepare her for what an insufferable prick he is. [marauders era] [regulus black x muggle oc] [enemies to lovers] ** updates on wednesdays **

"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that. He's my best friend, and h-he's in love with his perfect Lily-flower," Elsie sighed as tears began forming in her eyes. "But, Elsie... you don't see the way he looks at you, he-," his sentence was cut off by the girl with tears running down her face. "I don't see how he looks at me, but I see how he looks at her! And, t-that's enough to know that I will n-never be good enough to be with h-him," she snapped through stifled words. "But why don't you just tell him? Why don't you let yourself have a chance at happiness for once?" he asked stepping forwards, wiping her cheeks with his thumbs. "Because...loving him is a losing game. Either way, I'm the one getting hurt," Elsie whispered, falling into the arms of the boy in front of her.
