But now Abe's visions show something dark coming, and it wants Abe dead. ***** When Abe Barrett's family died, he started seeing ghosts. Soon he was living with three of them, and it turns out ghosts are just as eccentric as people.

His dreams, however, have been getting darker as people in town start to disappear. Soon Abe realizes there is something hunting him, and that same threat was involved with his family's deaths. A legacy of darkness is chasing Abe Barrett, and his supernatural roommates may not be enough to save him. [[word count: 60,000-70,000 words]]

**THIS STORY HAS BEEN MOVED TO RADISH** Magnus is the youngest Leader the London Mafia has ever had. At just 27 years old, Magnus has all the riches and total power. He sees himself as a King, and is treated as such. But a King cannot rule without his Queen, and after a spiral of events that leads to him being without one, Magnus begins a search. Having control over the whole city, and access to everything (and everyone) that comes with it, Magnus gathers all the eligible women his men can find, determined to find who can take the spot as his Queen. ---------- Esther is a beautiful young woman, an orphaned foreigner in the city of London. She belongs to a tribe that is shunned by the Capital. For people do not like what they do not understand. Despite her best efforts not to get caught up in Magnus' drama, she finds herself right in the middle of it, getting chosen to be Magnus' next Queen. Esther knows she must keep her identity a secret from Magnus, or she will face dire consequences. Does Esther manage to break open Magnus' arrogant and self-absorbed heart? Or does she risk exposing herself as a woman from the tribe of Yahweh? A retelling of an Ancient tale, unlike anything before.

The year started out weird, but things really took a turn for the bizarre when we discovered the Buzzfeed quizzes were coming true. ***** Leela Pendurthi is dog-paddling toward adulthood. Armed with a useless BS in astrophysics and a pretty decent data plan, the recent college graduate's life might be in shambles, but at least she has plenty of time to browse dank memes. Her half-assed attempts to slay the chaos dragon (and catch the attention of a local, possibly-autistic podiatrist) have been going relatively smoothly (relatively is a key word, here), until her best friend Abby points out that every Buzzfeed quiz they've taken seems to actually do what its claim to do. Guess their names? Check. Tell them their favorite 1D songs? Yup. When it becomes apparent that they have a chance to glimpse into their futures, one asinine quiz at a time, Leela and Abby embark on a quest to do the impossible: find date-able boys in their Appalachian hometown. While Leela has her cap set on 'emotional stability' and a '401k' and 'dental', Buzzfeed appears to have an entirely different type of guy lined up for her next boyfriend, AND a one-month deadline to meet her soulmate. But Buzzfeed won't be able to answer Leela's most pressing question: can she date and get dumped by a stoner in time to meet her soulmate in 3 weeks? There's no way her soulmate is going to be a pothead, right? Right? *kinda for grown-ups. there's curse words and weed*
