Dorothy Monroe is a petite woman with a heart too big for her chest. She's pure, kind, she looked at the world and determined all the colours of nature were miracles and needed to be remembered. She's loved photography ever since her father brought a camera home and even had a gift with the newly designed lenses ever since she could wrap her small hands around the clunks of metal. Thomas Shelby: gangster; and war hero; he reads the devils script as if it were the morning newspaper - the list will go on. I don't need to say much more, you already know him. The Shelby family, as part of Tommy's expansion plan, bought a large area of the woods on the outskirts of Small Heath, far away from the Birmingham smog, there they built safe houses and kept heavy machinery; maybe even once they kept a large crate of stolen guns, supposedly belonging to the Government. Unbeknownst to Dorothy, who stumbled around the woods (a bulky camera in hand), she had explored the woods many times, taking photos of all the things that shined bright enough, but had never come across the peculiar buildings that held many dangers. That is, of course, until she knocks upon one of the doors, ready to give an earful to whoever had built over this precious patch of land, only to come face to face with one Thomas Shelby. -loosely follows the plot of season 1- *disclaimer* I do not own the Peaky Blinders or any of Steven Knights characters, only the story of Dorothy and her own plot line. This trope is cliche and overused, but idc, I like it.

WHAT IF BELLA SWAN WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO CAME BACK TO FORKS? Krystal Swan remembers dying. She remembers another life, another name, another world-and she remembers every chapter of Twilight. So when she wakes up seventeen years earlier in Forks, Washington, as Charlie Swan's adopted daughter and Bella's younger sister, she knows exactly what is waiting for them. The Cullens. The wolves. The Volturi. James. Victoria. And every disaster that is supposed to unfold. What Krystal doesn't know is that this timeline has already changed. Because Carlisle Cullen has found his Blood Singer. For two years, the centuries-old vampire has watched Charlie Swan's youngest daughter from the shadows, fighting an attraction unlike anything he has ever experienced. Krystal's blood calls to the predator in him-but it is her stubbornness, intelligence, reckless humor, and refusal to be treated like something fragile that truly captures him. And Krystal? She's trying very hard not to fall for the devastatingly handsome doctor who definitely was not part of her original plans. But knowing the future comes with one enormous problem: The future doesn't know her. Every choice Krystal makes begins pulling the story further away from canon. Edward can't read her mind. Alice keeps seeing her in impossible futures. The Quileute wolves are watching. Carlisle is falling harder than he ever intended. And when the Cullens eventually leave Forks, Krystal refuses to sit around waiting for someone who chose to walk away. She makes a different choice. Then another. And another. Until the girl who was supposed to be a side character becomes the one rewriting the entire supernatural world. She won't wait for fate. She won't beg anyone to stay. And if the story wants to take everything from her- she'll simply write herself a new ending. Because this time, Bella Swan isn't the only Swan changing the Twilight universe. And Krystal? She's done following the script.

"Who even are you?" That was a great question.

Separated by the war and what came after, two long lost lovers finally find each other again.

Gypsy wisdom teaches that fate is something that lurks in every decision, in every glance at the stars, in every sound that seems to resonate in the heart. They say that fate is not something permanent, but a dance between free will and inevitability. Have you ever wondered what it would be like if Thomas had met his first love before he went to fight in the war? Maybe history would have turned out differently... #1 in peakyblinders #1 in 1910s #1 in 1920s #1 in 1930s #1 in tommyshelby #1 in arthurshelby #1 in shelbyfamily #2 in Birmingham
