    Born beneath the same tide, Tsireya was cherished by the sea, while her twin sister, Gianna, was feared by it. With her pale skin and white hair, Gianna was ignored and rejected by the Metkayina as a child, seen as an omen rather than a person. When she befriends Lo'ak Sully, the two form a bond based on mutual neglect and a quiet understanding. But love becomes forbidden, jealousy fractures families and superstition turns cruel. Exile, war and sacrifice follow. 52/80 edited version. Started: 01/17/2026 Ended:? Disclaimer I do not own Avatar, Avatar: The Way of Water, or any of the canon characters featured in this story.

    Felix was everything an omega like him should be-quiet, caring, and far too kind for a world that thrived on power. Hyunjin was everything an alpha should be-cold, feared, and completely in control. When fate binds them together, hatred is the only thing Hyunjin feels for the omega he never wanted. But hatred is a dangerous thing. Because the more he tries to break Felix, the more he finds himself unable to stay away. And somewhere between cruel words, forced closeness, and unspoken pain... Hyunjin realizes- the omega he hated... might be the one he can't live without.

    Recommended for 15+ (Make you're own call if you think you have the maturity of roughly a 15-year-old or older... you're good) Anyway... Six years have passed since Aaravos fell... Six years of planning, failing, hoping and waiting for what's to come, and just... trying to move on. But no one can predict the future. (Well, maybe Kosmo kind of can). Meanwhile, Rayla and Callum are navigating love, loss, and the unknown. Old enemies awaken, new dangers emerge, and every choice could destroy the world they've fought so hard to protect. Their home. Can they survive what's coming... together? ...Or will everything fall to pieces? The cover art, is edited and designed (Put together...) By me using photoshop, but the base image is created by Hanna Hofer, and the logo obviously belongs to the creators of the show!

    Before the mountain learned silence... A love bloomed beneath eternal snow. Centuries ago, high above the small villages nestled at the foot of the mountain, the goddess Ysoria lived in solitude, feared and worshipped by mortals who dared not cross into her domain. Her existence had long been defined by quiet halls, endless winters, and the distant prayers of people who knew her only through stories. Then Celsa came. A stubborn and curious mortal who climbed the mountain despite every warning, Celsa was unlike anyone Ysoria had encountered before. She did not kneel in fear or treat the goddess as some distant, untouchable deity. She spoke to her as though she were simply a woman, returning again and again until an unlikely companionship slowly grew into something far more tender. But mortals were never meant to share eternity with gods. As Celsa's time begins to run out, Ysoria is forced to face the one truth she has spent centuries avoiding: she may have the power to command storms, shape frost, and endure the passing of ages, but she cannot command mortality. --- © 2026 Bobloky | Please don't steal, copy, remake or repost my work. | This story is entirely fictional.

    I'm from the human race. I mean, of course I am what else would I be from and be able to know how to read and write? The only difference is that my race is extremely miniature. And if you haven't read your history books, kids, you'd know that when privileged people find different humans that aren't made in the exact image of themselves, they tend to take advantage completely. And in my case we were reduced to house pets. Supposedly because we were too small and insignificant to live around, they decided to hand us off to the average (or in their eyes "normal") human to take care of us in their own home. And that's where my story begins. When I am handed off to some teenage girl who has enough money to sleep on and with a terrifying father that I have no intentions on seeing the underside of his polished shoe before everything goes dark for me. So... yeah.

About choosing each other, even when the clock is running out. Because some people aren't meant to stay forever. Some people are meant to teach you what forever feels like. *172 days. One love. A lifetime of memories.* _Read if you love: Angst, Slow Burn, Found Family, Heartbreak, and ugly crying at 2AM_ ---

She's always believed she was traveling back to save him. She's about to find out who's actually been on the other end of the door the whole time - and it isn't who she thinks. A grief that won't stay in the past. A love she never let herself see coming. And the brother who's spent ten years showing up, one impossible coincidence at a time.

    She hides her fractures. He believes in repair. Claire has mastered the art of holding herself together-of surviving without asking to be seen. Theo understands broken things: how they split, how they ache, and how patience, not force, is what makes them beautiful again. When their lives intersect, love grows quietly in the spaces they never name. It is warm, careful, and frightening in its sincerity. But the past does not stay buried. Old wounds resurface, and healing begins to feel heavier than breaking. Là où l'on se brise, on apprend aussi à réparer. (Where we break, we also learn how to mend.)
