Shadow . . . . . the dark figure cast upon a surface by a body intercepting the rays from a source of light. . . . . an imperfect and faint representation . . . It follows us wherever we go. . . It is a copycat. Our reflected image in the dark. Well, this is the meaning of a shadow that is said and believed by people. . . But what about 'us'? Well. . .We believe in the different kind of meaning of the shadow. . . We have seen its origin and sole purpose. . . We consider them not as a shaded or dark portion of our figure. . . We consider them as our 'other-half'.

The Truth
It is as simple as the title reflects. Its the truth. Simple yet complicated in its own right. Because in a single truth of a person might not be an actual truth, but instead the ideals of the human. The truth according to the writer. But if you think of it that way, I believe truth is a myth. A word with no real meaning. So instead this is a testimate. A truth in my eyes. Just to show my ideals and thoughts.Complete
Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind - Treebros
There's an old proverb that says that when something is 'out of sight, out of mind', it means that you forget things that aren't there anymore. That's how I am. Invisible. Unseen, unheard. A face in the crowd. Alone in my own little lifeboat, floating in the sea. I try not to care, I really do. I try not to let it bother me how everyone's gaze slides off of me like water, as if I'm not even there. Except for his. tw: sexual assault, depression, mentions of school shootings, mentions of heterosexuality, coming to terms with ones sexuality, mentions of self harm, mentions of suicide, panic attacks, this is DEH you know what's going onComplete
My Name Is Adela Kirigan (A Shadow and Bone Season 1 Fanfiction)
We'd been waiting for the Sun Summoner our whole lives. We were told stories about that person that would destroy the swathe of blackness known as the Shadow Fold, the place called the Unsea, the place that divided all of Ravka. My twin brother, Aleksander Kirigan, known as General Kirigan to the Second Army of Grisha soldiers and the court of the Little Palace, as well as to all of Ravka, works tirelessly to maintain order in our corner of Ravka, lead the Second Grisha soldiers and find the Sun Summoner in order to destroy the Shadow Fold. Our father died when we were young, and our mother is well - cranky. Our mother, Baghra, lives in a little hut not too far from the Little Palace. She hates the door being left open to her hut because it steals the heat, and for some reason has a problem with my brother. She adores me, in her own special cranky way. I was born to be a princess, not a military leader like my brother. Marry well, do and say all the right things, I was told, and perhaps I could even rise to the throne of Ravka, perhaps alongside one of the King's sons as my husband. I had everything, but I didn't like my life. I wanted to be free, like my brother. The queen's attendant, Genya, called me a 'wild child.' She still does. I train regularly with the Grisha in the Second Army at the Little Palace, but I've rarely ever left the Little Palace. But when a girl named Alina Starkov arrived at the Little Palace, courtesy of my brother, everything began to change. Aleksander thought she was the Sun Summoner, the one to heal all of Ravka. And as time changed, a sinister plan began to take hold of the Little Palace, as well as all of the Grisha and the rest of the court. And Alina was getting caught in the middle of it. But so was I. I'm Adela Kirigan - but the legacy of my name, and what was taking hold, would soon become a great danger to all of Ravka.Complete
Moth
They say the world used to turn. They say that night would follow day in an endless dance. They say that dawn rose, dusk fell, and we worshiped both sun and stars. That was a long time ago. The dance has died. The world has fallen still. We float through the heavens, one half always in light, one half always in shadow. Like the moth of our forests, one wing white and the other black, we are torn. My people are the fortunate. We live in daylight, blessed in the warmth of the sun. Yet across the line, the others lurk in eternal night, afraid... and alone in the dark. I was born in the light. I was sent into darkness. This is my story.Complete
Dementor's TOUCH
There is a presence... lingering in your future. A force - no, a being - watching, waiting. Its intentions... obscured. Its purpose... unknown. __________________________________________ "Yes, but the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters," said Sirius with a wry smile. __________________________________________ MC: Y/N RosierComplete
Shadow Lines
One Simple Message: We are the people who are never seen, never heard, or never known. We are the people who watch and wait. Humans live in a world with people called Shadows. They are the people who carry souls into Judgment, to see if they will enter heaven or hell. No one alive has ever laid eyes on a Shadow. They are unseen, untouched. But when Eveyln Arousela sees one, the consequences could lead to transformation of not only the Shadow world, but Evelyn's own as well.Complete
Shadow Beings
Within our sparse knowledge of the universe, the spacetime continuum is our presently known model that tells us where and when things happen. But what of the other questions, other dimensions, and possibly the beings of these other dimensions? In the world of the Shadow Beings, the 'darkest' Shadows - the Demons - wake from their dormancy. Secrets begin to unveil and Audrey, a Shadow-Trapper, has to somehow bring everyone and everything together to stop madness from happening; a way to stop war. In the midst of all this, she will understand who she truly is. ?namuh os yeht era yhw ...sgnieB 'lautiripS' Warning: At times this book can be very vague/metaphorical, so I would not recommend it to people looking for a light read.Complete
.Daughter Of Both Sides.
In a world similar and yet very different from ours, that's where our story will lead us. Even in a world of supernatural and magic, there can still be out of the norm things..... That's just what Shadow is, only one of her kind, no one else is like her. Why? Well she's the daughter of both sides. (This is an old story, don't expect my current writing skills in them lol) -------------------------------------- I HAVE NO MONEY!!! Stop offering me to draw me comics of my stuff, I cannot pay you... Tell me if it is free fanart because you want to draw my stuff and be included, if not that and money mentioned, I WILL mute you bc I ain't paying.Complete
