There was nothing more fundamentally fascinating to Oliver than the gray area, and from what he'd heard of it, his new workplace, Shady Cove research facility, was the very pinnacle of moral ambiguity. Even its name implied questionable antics. 
While some had a moral compass, Oliver Blanc had a 'meddle needle.' He aimed wherever his 'meddle needle' pointed, and followed the direction it led him in until his curiosity was satisfied. As marvelously exciting as Harvard was, the moment Shady Cove had been mentioned, his meddle needle had found a new direction. There was no higher tier to reach than Shady Cove. 
No higher tier... and yet no lower one.

Rated mature primarily for language and mild sexual implications.

Righteous Indignation - RF! Welcome Home by EremitaErebus

I never saw myself writing an x reader, but here I am. I don't care about the whole Y/N complications. There will be no physical characteristics implied aside from Wally being taller than you. I want everyone to be able to immerse themselves in this story, including people who aren't women, people who have differing skin tones. A lot of x readers have very specific main characters. I'm not here for a self insert. I'm here for you. Although, I will take the creative liberty to tell you that your name is now Neighbor. (no, NOT Darling. Suck it up, simps, I'll feed you at some point. you'll get your fill.) Any and all honorifics are going to be gender-neutral. --SYNOPSIS-- You have been working at the Rainbow Factory for a few years now, and your routine is like clockwork. Too much like clockwork. Your wanderlust and enthusiasm for life has faded into a routinely emotionless shell, the only things coming out of your mouth a "Yes, sir," and a "I'm on it." Your boss, Wally Darling, has recently began to assign you more and more lab work. The most recent one was to carry out an experiment.

"For a place called Paradise City, this island sucks. I don't think a single day has gone by that I haven't thought about stabbing the shit out of myself," he said. "Especially since I'm forced to live with you every second of every day." "Sh. I'm trying to science," I said, not looking up from my binoculars. "See anything interesting?" "Not really. My vision's a little clouded from the fog and rain clouds you constantly emit." He laughed. "You never fail to amuse me, Rea." "But you just said-" "I just said you make me want to stab myself. Interpret that however you'd like." With a love for whales and all life (besides maybe humans), Reagan Winebrenner had never even seen an ocean until her senior year in high school. But the moment she saw her first humpback, she knew she had found her passion and future career. A few years later and an invitation to Paradise City in hand, Reagan has her entire summer laid out for her, working on the project of a lifetime. But with five other students completing their projects as well, will they discover something worthwhile, or will they end up a psychology lesson for future generations? A New Adult Watty Winner 2019

RF Wally Darling x Reader || "Inside the Factory" by L1TTL3_R0TT3N

! Wally AU credits: @Xscapee ! Go support their work ! "Why do you need me here, Dr. Darling? Tell me the truth." "Because I could never imagine my life without you in it." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You had everything you could've needed. Two loving fathers, a happy home, a job harvesting crops for your small village, everything was fine until you were taken into captivity as a test subject for the Rainbow Factory, a company that secretly used living and nonliving beings and drained the color out of them to create rainbows. All for the best, all hidden deep in a forest. After being in captivity for a few days, having seen enough, you decided to take a new route. You faced the head scientist himself, Dr. Walden Darling, and demanded life. "Join me, and you'll never have to worry about death again." You were given the chance to become the head scientist's assistant, and you immediately took the job if it meant saving your life. Working with Wally was no walk in the park, and just being in the factory drained you and killed you inside. So with hidden help, you decided to escape. And perhaps, one day, destroy the factory for good. ! TW: human test subjects, employee x boss relationship, moderate swearing, moderate intimacy, trauma, gore, violence, child death, suicide !

Rescued and Ruined by VTBonds

I thought being kidnapped by heartless scientists was the worst thing that could happen to me. I was wrong. Being rescued by a massive teal alien alpha covered in spikes was worse. So much worse. The scientists only wanted to experiment on me. He wants to ruin me. **This story is knot for the faint of heart.

From a young age, he was diagnosed as a psychopath, with a propensity for violence and manipulation that set him apart from his peers. While most children were learning to share and play nicely, Paris was already plotting his next move, studying the world around him with an intensity that bordered on madness. Sable, on the other hand, was the epitome of normalcy. She exuded kindness and compassion in everything she did, her innocence shining through even in the darkest of times. But she couldn't escape Paris's gaze; he watched her from afar for years, his obsession with her growing stronger each day. And yet she accepted him with little hesitation when he finally emerged from the shadows, embracing his twisted ways as if they were just another part of who he was. As they embarked on their tumultuous journey together, Sable struggled to reconcile Paris's dark side with her own emotions. She found herself torn between fear and fascination, repulsion and intrigue. But no matter how chaotic their lives became or how troubled his family proved to be, Sable stood by Paris's side unwaveringly - for she knew that beneath the mask of a psychopath lay a glimmer of humanity that only she could see.

Lab Rat(18+) by LovedAThousandLives

. Three years. It had been three years since he'd been taken, experimented on, had his DNA altered and became a freak of nature. He knew because he'd managed to peek at the computer when they dragged him into that dreaded room; the one they used to prod, poke and inject him with god-knows-what. He was considered their only success - meaning their illegal tests hadn't killed him or rendered him paralysed, or worse; brain dead. He was subject 254. And he was the only survivor. At least until she - subject 391 - moved into the cell next door. - - 18th June 2018 - Rank 1 #sciencefiction 17th May 2019 - Rank 4 #romance 22nd Feb 2019 - Rank 1 #superpowers -- ** NOW COMPLETED**

City of Masks: Vigilante origins by TipsyWizard

Abominations, freaks, monsters; society has forever ostracized those who stand out. And when the discovery of a new mineral leads to people developing supernatural abilities, these "Abnormals" are treated no differently. However in the wake of a catastrophic event that left everyone wondering whether it was the end, everything changed. Now Abnormals are appreciated more than ever as an era of Superheroes was born, inspired by the heroes who saved the World! But this story isn't about those heroes, instead we follow Elliot Campbell, seventeen years later, in the waning years of Superhero popularity. Elliot is your average bystander who struggles everyday to stay above rock bottom, except for one big problem; he is an absolute loser, incapable of making correct decisions. That is until he is offered the power to change the course of his life forever. He could become an Abnormal or even more hopeful he could become a Superhero! Except that the way he would get his powers isn't exactly above board & the people he would be joining are fighting crime outside of the law. Is this the chance he must take to turn his life around or just another BIG mistake in a long long list of them?
