When Gilbert Beilschmidt finds himself threatened with expulsion for his less-than-satisfactory grades and inability to control his temper, he reluctantly accepts the offer of being tutored and joining the cursed Oyster Club- a club ridden with the school's motley crew of delinquents and run by happy-go-lucky art teacher Ms. Braginski. Needless to say, Gilbert isn't terribly enthusiastic about his future experience, but his outlook changes when he crosses paths with childhood friend Elizaveta Héderváry.

Gil 'I don't like this' Ludwig 'I'm only doing this to make him proud...' Or at least that's how it was in the beginning. Gilbert didn't mind the war...until he watched. Ludwig was only in it to make his brother proud... but something changed. One of them became a monster.

Ludwig was the younger brother and he didnt mind. He loved and adored his elder brother. He was happy to be the lesser. The overlooked. He was proud of his brothers intimidating army and impressive empire. He was content with being in his big brothers shadow. Then, after WWI, he learned something. Small is weak and the weak are bullied. He would never again be small or weak. He would be great. He would be the empire everyone remembered. He would be feared and respected. The world would fall to its knees, and he would look down upon them. No one would stop him. No one would be better than him. No one was safe. Not even his dear brother.

December 7, 1941 Japan would never forget his defeat. Nor would he forget the girl that stood steadfast by his side, even when he pushed her away and made all the wrong decisions.

If you think you've wandered into a Fruits Basket-type story with sugary sweetness and romance, you are wrong. Dead wrong. This is a story where you probably won't survive the night. Welcome to a world where you have to be wary of going out of your home. Lock your doors behind you. Carry a weapon of the highest caliber possible. Don't stay out after sunset, even if you have a flashlight and camping gear. Beware the Zodiac. They are everywhere, and they are so thirsty... Thirsty for your annihilation. The cover photo and many of the side photos are by Yuhon on deviantart, so I in no way claim ownership of any kind of them. This is a Hetalia AU of my own creation, something completely new to the world. Please be kind and don't be too critical, though there shall be some gore and violence, possibly death (especially in flashbacks) so read at your own discretion. Again, this is something I myself came up with (with some inspiration from Yuhon's pictures) so have fun!

Hi, I'm Melina Andrews. Or at least, that's who I thought I was until recent events. I was living with my "dad" until I ran away because he was an abusive drunkard and a bastard, but I'd never gotten the courage to actually leave until I was around 15, almost 16. But after disguising myself as a boy so it would be harder to be recognized by my dad, I enrolled in a private school called Gakuen for a few different reasons. It seemed like the right idea at the time, and while I love it there, I'm taking a lot of risks. I swear, if my new friend Matthew wasn't helping me, I'd have been kicked out a LOOOONG time ago. Things in me have been changing recently (no, I don't mean puberty) and I'm not sure why. And what's this possibility of my being a... country? Cover is by Mew_Mew_Keki, the winner of the 2015 fan art contest! Congratulations, and thank you SO MUCH for drawing such a wonderful cover for me! All my WUVS to you!

Book Two, part two of the "Home" series. Alice Carlea Williams, our brave young state, has lost her memory again! To make matters worse, she's been shipped off to another dimension and wakes up in a hospital, where she's told she has amnesia. As if that wasn't bad enough, her counterpart is taking her place in her dimension, and Alice is slated to be wed to... Prussia? Holy god, what is going on. And Kadi... Poor Kadi. She's got quite a few magnificent skeletons in her closet. They're about to be thrown out into the open for everyone to see. Recurring sentences, the all-too-likely future, strange souls, and ancient history are about to become more connected than they've ever been. Are you strong-willed enough to make the journey? Because if you aren't, you just might not make it out alive... "You're needed elsewhere." "Yin and yang. Two halves of a whole. Both are connected. Both are balanced, until now, aru." Rated PG-13 for magic, swearing, one or two suggestive themes, bloodshed, multiple intense scenes, harsh reality, and fantasy. Your feels very well may not end up totally intact, fair warning. But you'll enjoy it all, every second. Read at your own risk, but please don't give up on this story. Like, a gazillion Hetalia AUs in this. And other things, many other things. A character death will be involved, and it's NOT Alice, believe it or not. I do not own Hetalia nor anything else I use or reference. What I own is meager: the plot, the OCs, and the work it takes to create this story. Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you like what you read!
