    Rory and Daryl's relationship is built on tension and grudging respect. From the start, they clash-Rory's idealism as a doctor, her need to help and heal, constantly rubs against Daryl's hardened, survivalist attitude. He doesn't trust easily, especially not someone like her, who still believes in making the world a better place despite everything falling apart. "I don't need your help, Doc," Daryl growls after a particularly tense moment where Rory tries to tend to his wounds. But beneath their antagonism, there's something deeper. Despite his gruff exterior, Daryl can't deny that Rory has a stubborn, unwavering strength. She's the only one who still tries to save lives, and though he resists, he respects her for it. "You're gonna get yourself killed trying to fix everyone," Daryl says, his tone rough but tinged with concern, even if he won't admit it. "I'm not trying to fix everyone.Just... one person at a time," Rory replies, and for a brief moment, Daryl doesn't know how to respond. Their interactions are filled with a mix of sharp words and quiet moments of understanding. Rory doesn't know whether to admire Daryl's ability to survive or to wish he would open up. And Daryl? He can't decide if he's annoyed by her optimism or secretly grateful for it. Though they argue constantly, there's no denying the bond forming between them-built on mutual survival and an unspoken need for each other in a world that has stripped them of everything else. "Maybe one day you'll stop pushing me away," Rory says quietly, after another fight. Daryl just stares into the fire, silent for a long time before muttering, "Not today." And so, they continue-two people who hate and need each other in equal measure, caught somewhere between survival and something more.

    Beneath the earth, the sun is only a memory - and its light is no longer free. The powerful have bottled it, priced it, and called it holy. Every flicker, every breath, must be paid for in Lumen. Lucy Farrow was born in the Gloom, where the air tastes of rust and hope is a dangerous thing. Her mother taught her to keep her glow low - to survive unseen. But when the light inside her begins to stir, Lucy's secret could unravel the order that keeps their divided city alive. High above, in the marble halls of the Halo, Prince Cassian Veran uncovers a secret among ink and dust - a forbidden lineage that could unmake the order he was born to protect. His duty is to snuff it out: his heart tells him to save it. Between them rises the Veil: a wall of soot-black stone and blinding searchlights, dividing the blessed from the broken. As rebellion brews in the dark and doubt kindles in the light, their paths will cross - and together they will awaken a fire long thought dead. A Radiant who could bring back the dawn... or burn the world to ash. ⸻ ✧ ⸻ Lucy approached the marble stairs of the Distribution Point, feeling smaller with every step. Even after so many visits, its splendour still swallowed her whole. Inside, chandeliers of bottled light bathed clerks and soldiers in scarlet. Behind the wooden barrier, white-gloved hands counted Credits and passed bottles of gold to the waiting poor. A cry tore through the hush. "No, I swear, these Credits are real -" The clerk's reply was colder than stone. "One is counterfeit. Guards!" Boots thundered. The woman screamed as Veil Guards dragged her away, her voice fading into the city's endless hum. The line moved. "Next." Lucy stepped forward, clutching her satchel. The Credits inside jingled - Mother had checked them twice, but still her hands shook. ⸻ ✧ ⸻

    -Zombie World- A book I decided to make for me and my friend's enjoyments. But even after doing so I ended up loving so much I had to just share my creation. -This book takes place within 2025-2026. That's the start of it. Meanwhile it continues onwards into the future describing the hardships of which a group of teenagers have to face(The teens being the so-called freaks of their school... to put it short the weird kids even if they were regular). -The start of the apocalypse starts due to a chemistry experiment gone wrong.... The experiment wasn't even allowed to be done either way due to the fact the teens who did it were clearly under the age restriction to even touch such viles. Zombie world was a way to put all my pent up fantasies of a zombie apocalypse into a book. The main character of which you'll find out is a FtM character. I decided to put all the things I can't do or even be, into a story. And this is the story that I came up with. -So enjoy! Stay tuned. (And wait for the book to be over with!) ~By: Vincent Kelly~

    Tokyo-3 expected another pilot. It did not expect a living weapon in human skin. Lt. Kora Williams arrives with no warning and no manners, wearing a black plugsuit and the scars of a childhood spent in captivity. Her Evangelion-Unit-089 "Blade Wolf"-howls loud enough to crack AT-Fields and obeys only her voice. Every instinct she has is animalistic, honed, and terrifying... until she lays eyes on Asuka Langley Soryu. Asuka has fought her whole life to be the strongest, the smartest, the best. She doesn't know what to do with a girl who refuses to be intimidated, who shoves her aside in battle just to keep her safe, who bleeds herself dry without hesitation, and who calls her "Princess" as if it's the only name that matters. Forced into joint missions as Angels become deadlier, the girls are pushed past their breaking points-sync overloads, mental invasions, political schemes, and the looming threat of Instrumentality. Somewhere between shared nightmares, battlefield sacrifices, stolen kisses, and a week spent fugitive together, Asuka and Kora stop pretending they're just teammates. They aren't just partners. They aren't just pilots. They're a pack-and they'll tear the world apart before they're separated.

    Before kings and empires, before mankind walked beneath the stars, there was a song-divine, broken, and eternal. From the first breath of Consciousness to the fall of gods and the rise of mortals, The Divine Requiem Saga weaves a mythic chronicle of a world forever caught in a cycle of creation and collapse. Across eons, civilizations rise from sacred flame and fall to ash. Ancient powers stir in forgotten realms. And as the Age of Conquest dawns, the echoes of a primordial war whisper once more. This is not a tale of heroes. This is the memory of a world-sung through time, bound by fate, and written in requiem.

WITHER was conquered three years ago, bringing brighter days to Beacontown and its allies. The blue mycelium antidote is now the people's weapon, keeping the disease in its grave. And as a plus, the New Order's friendship has never been closer. But when a war is lost, not everyone wants to accept defeat, especially not the disease that'd almost doomed humanity. A wicked mutation is underway, too remorseless to spare even the ones who have the greatest chance of survival. This new, blood-curdling variant is wiser, stronger and has stolen the very tactic that Jesse uses to bring home the victory every time - teamwork. Now forcing the infected to their side, WITHER taunts at the antidote that no longer cures.

    For ten millennia, the colossal star-vault Rylos has been the isolated domain of the Phoenix Corporation Council, preserving the last remnants of humanity under an ideology of rigid control. Kaelen, an elite Enforcer, is the apex weapon-genetically conditioned and stripped of all emotion-chosen to execute the final, sacred mission: descend to Earth, locate the ancient Genesis Beacon, and transmit the Council's filtered genetic index to begin the new, subservient colony. But Kaelen's descent into the overgrown, radioactive ruins of the Silent City shatters his absolute belief. Aided by Alia, a fierce scavenger who knows the true dangers of the surface, Kaelen discovers the horrific truth: the Council deliberately purged the resilient 60% of humanity's genetic profiles to ensure a future of obedient specialists. Now a traitor, Kaelen races against the clock to find the true, complete genetic index. He must infiltrate the highly-defended Safe Harbor Vault to reprogram the Beacon before Rylos arrives. Kaelen's fight for a real future is complicated by the arrival of Lyra, his former partner and the most lethal Hunter Rylos has ever produced, who is tasked with eliminating him and restoring the Council's perfect, sterile order. Kaelen's final act of defiance is to successfully merge the full genetic registry, forcing the crashing Rylos to launch a diverse, chaotic, and resilient new human future onto the surface, ensuring the species' survival but signing his own death warrant. As the new colony emerges from the wreckage, Kaelen and Alia must become the reluctant guardians of the chaos, preparing for the inevitable war against the surviving, vengeful Council and their ultimate Hunter.
