    Always the perfect princess expected of a daughter of the Todoroki family, despite everything going on at home, Fuyumi always made friends easily, and she expects something similar when, on a bold move, she decides to enter the Pro Hero course at U.A. High. Only, there's another in her class, who is polite to everyone, and her friends who also ended up at U.A. find him charming, only -- only he takes one look at her and becomes cold as ice and distant, but given how easily she makes friends, Fuyumi feels something is up, something she can't quite place, and she plans on figuring it out no matter how antagonistic he may be. Disclaimer - I don't own My Hero Academy. This is written for ONC 2026, prompt number fifty-seven, "Everyone loves the polite, charming student on campus. Except, when you walk into the room. For some reason you're the only one they treat with icy distance. You're determined to find out why."

    For ONC 2025 | Prompt 14 A middle-aged witch. One successful murder, one less successful murder. Add a dash of yearning, and it's the perfect recipe for disaster...or romance. Lee Morose, pronounced Mo-ro-say, is an appeals witch, which means she works her hardest to get innocent magical beings out of their punishments. After almost being drowned by a lake monster, Lee gets approached by Reef Marine, pronounced Mare-in, a mermaid who's been cursed with Living Death, the ultimate punishment given to those convicted of the most heinous magical crimes. But Reef claims he's innocent, and Lee has an inkling maybe the sopping-wet man before her is telling the truth. So Lee agrees to take on his case, and together they set out to discover the the real murderer. But there's someone or something, that wants the truth to stay buried. There's also the little matter of Lee's growing interest in Reef that goes beyond attorney/client privilege. A witch's life is never easy, and Lee's just got a whole lot more complicated.

    Can Regulus' words speak louder than his brother's actions? There are many times Regulus doubts his ability to get through to his older brother who is unwilling to listen to anyone with the last name of Black, but a part of him wants to believe in Slughorn's pet project of forming a band and making music to bring house unity just as much as he wants to believe the songs he writers as Stubby Boardman might get through to Sirius. Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024. I'm using prompt one for this story, "Sometimes words speak louder than actions."

Author's note: The story, the characters and the city mentioned are completely frictional. None of the events that are going to happen are real and this entire book is out of my imagination.

    No more Reach, mission successful.... right? Realization slapped Bart in the face, his perfect facade of a chipper-speedster-tourist tearing at its seams. He hadn't allowed himself to think that far ahead. He hadn't allowed false hope to motivate him, but now they had won, yet at what cost? He was stranded in the past with the trauma of a future no-one would ever come to understand. And despite the rule he set of no emotional attachments the consequences of his indirect involvement with Wally's death -something that wasn't meant to happen yet- hit him harder then he would ever admit. Nevertheless, he stood still; soaking it all in as he donned the signature red and yellow suit. He would became the replacement nobody wanted and he would do so wearing the smile he had rehearsed. (AU of Young Justice season 3. None of the characters or setting belong to me, they belong to their respected owners).

    "When all else fails, throw a little magic at it" is the motto for most people on the technologically-advanced planet of Kalanun. But for Sebastian Auclaire, that couldn't be further from the truth. In a world where magic is determined by the button the government plugs into your brain, Sebastian's button simply reads "random". Unable to determine what it will do at any given point, Sebastian determines to use the button only as necessary. But when he's thrown into a fight against a corrupt government and a shadowy organization behind them, the button suddenly becomes necessary a lot more often. Forced to rely on his wits and an unreliable source of magic, Sebastian navigates a world where tolerance and cultural relevance are the holy grails of society--unless you happen to be someone who doesn't fit into the well-oiled machine just right. Faced with the challenges of a world that can't accept him and a government that wants him dead, Sebastian must decide: give in or fight.

    When he was sixteen, Lu Ten thought the Fire Nation would change the world. At age thirty, he realized it wasn't the world that needed changing, right at the same time some of his not so clever life choices started catching up to him. It was time to become wise, like someone he greatly admired, even if he couldn't do anything with said wisdom. Disclaimer - I don't own Avatar: The Last Airbender. This is both a giftfic for a good friend of mine, KelseyAlicia who encouraged me to go the route of Lu Ten/Ursa in my To Lose or to Gain series, but also an ONC project. While parts of this story arc are AU to where I intend on taking the To Lose or to Gain series others are not. The prompt I am using is number thirty, "'Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.' - Rumi."

    My Heir, April 10th, 1808 If you are receiving this note then it means two things. One: your world is about to hit rock bottom. Two: you are my heir, and therefore need to understand that I say these next words with a vengeance in my heart. You must find your way to your estate in Norway. I have evidence that will help you destroy your greatest enemy once and for all, giving you the power that I know you deserve. At this point, you must be skeptical, but I must ask you to trust me. For who else would know that Leif Aldridge was my betrothed and that I ran to your ancestor Benjamin Sullivan to help escape the treacherous Aldridge household. Regards, Katheryn Ellingboe

    A dragon, a dwarf and an elf walk into a bar... But only because that bar is on their way to tracking down the lost heir in a last-ditch quest to save the kingdom from a very long list of very bad things. And also, quite possibly, because the more of the kingdom they see, the more they find themselves in need of a drink. So, grab your halberd and your mead and buckle up - it's time for a road trip, fantasy-style.
