Meanwhile, Wolfgang's cousin, Elke von Witzland, a prodigy of the Hanseatic Navy Air Corps, climbs into the cockpit, seeing the coming firestorm not as a damnation, but as her divine right-a stage for the glory she believes is hers to claim. In a world where duty, honor, and hierarchy are paramount, love becomes the most dangerous battlefield of all. DISCLAIMER: This story is an EXTREME SLOW BURN. If you are looking for instant romance, quick confessions, or characters who act on their feelings within the first few chapters-this is not that story. If you are patient, you will be REWARDED. This is a long serial. The tension builds slowly. But it is EARNED. If that is your kind of story, WELCOME!

August 19th 1942 My Dearest Soldier, I feel as though I am floating on a cloud that I could slip through and free fall at any given moment. In all honesty I don't think i would mind all that much. It might make me actually feel something or make me come back to reality. I didn't think I was one to believe that in a time like this I would find love and yet I can feel it coursing through my veins as though it is what was supposed to be there all along, I feel as though it's keeping me alive. I wrote that when I was seventeen. I never thought that these words would come to life again as if nothing changed. Although something has changed, as it always does, I am no longer seventeen.

A collection of story ideas, and stories that are not to be realized... For now. (Note: You can ask me if you want to use these ideas, since I probably wont be going through with most of them anyways.) Totally 100% not inspired by @Paryew's story ideas.

Smiling as though she already knows him. The image stays with him long after the guns fall silent. / He writes to her to deliver the news gently, enclosing Tommy's unfinished letter. Nell's reply is quiet, graceful, threaded with a grief she carries without complaint. One letter becomes two. Then ten. Through mud and snow, through rationing and fear, they build a fragile connection out of words neither expected to need. She tells him about her garden and her schoolchildren. He tells her the truths he's never spoken aloud. They fall in love by inches, not declarations. When the war ends, Nell asks him, "Will you write to me from peace?" But James hesitates.

Then Nell receives a final letter with no return address, only a single line: I still carry the picture. I'd like to see the real thing. He boards the train.

David Moore, A US soldier who is known amongst the ranks as simply, "Moore". He's just a soldier who recently was sent to Vietnam, and he is scared, the things he sees are beyond him. He is just on his third mission when something terrible happens. He is stranded, and he finds himself in a strange situation. Aera Tehiro, a Filipino girl who lives in Vietnam, and happens to be under North Vietnamese control, she lives near the border between the North and the South making her life pretty much a living hell, but she's used to it. She lives her life nonchalantly until she meets someone. For the better? Maybe, probably. There probably will be a lot of violence and stuff, since it's the Vietnam War. Also, POV changes will be marked, chapters will be entirely in one characters POV. POV's will only change in-between chapters. (Totally not inspired by The Pacific Front, by me.)

"Killing an Excuse of Virelia and Adrian" begins with a bombing-and everything that survives it. When Solstice War College is attacked, Adrian is forced to transfer to Arcanum, a place known for its silence, structure, and students who don't ask questions. Virelia has always been one of them. Sharp-edged and unreadable, she has no interest in the boy from a broken campus. But the war doesn't care about comfort zones, and neither does the truth. Thrown together by circumstance, Adrian and Virelia slowly circle each other-connected by rumors, duty, and the things they refuse to say. It's not a romance. Not at first. It's the quiet study of two people unlearning what they've been taught to hate-and the excuse that kept them from looking deeper.

A love story about a young typewriter and a handsome young soldier that takes place in the 1940's and tragically ends in the mid autumn of 1964.
