Demons (MCYT x Phasmophobia Fanfic) by JadedSundragon

Impulse is a demon. A demon with morals. Weird, huh? He's got one last chance before his soul is destroyed and scattered across the universe. All he has to do is make a deal with a mortal, take their soul, and return to Hades. It's simple, according to his manager, who even remarks that it hopes Impulse gets summoned by a moron. Turns out, that "moron" is the one and only Scar Goodtimes, who just wanted to see what a summoning circle actually did. Grian and Skizz find out, and Impulse gets roped into a deal he knows he can't keep for the sake of his morals and Scar's wellbeing. Everything goes to the Nether from there. === All chapter titles are lyrics from Demons by Imagine Dragons These stories are a collection of somewhat connected oneshots that originated in my Oneshot book. I told the peeps over there that, once I hit more than 3 chapters of any story, I would copy them over to their own book so they didn't clutter the oneshots book. That's what happened with this story: I have too many ideas, so I copied them into this one. Chapter summaries will appear at the beginning of each chapter, along with trigger warnings. Pay attention to those!!! Cross-posted to AO3 (user: JadedSundragon)

The Wings I Was Forced To Have. [DISCONTINUED] by echo_star__

A once free and happy minecraft player, who had finally overcome his disaster of a past, finds himself trapped in a place he'd never imagined he'd see again. Was he finally free from being consumed by their power? Or is this just some kind of sick prank that's being pulled on him? For now all he can do is put one foot in front of the other and hope for the best. Hope. Will this lost watcher ever find a place he is accepted in or will he continue to be pushed away by everyone in society? [Trigger Warnings (TW)] This story will contain: •Some mentions of violence •Some mentions of blood, slight gore such as cuts and other battle related injuries ~please let me know of there are any other warnings that I should add here~ [DISCLAIMER] [I do not intend on shipping any characters within this story and if I do ship anyone it will be my own oc's (original characters) not the irl people. I am not writing about the irl people, I am only writing about their character/personas and they will often be ooc (out of character). I do not own all characters that are included in this fanfiction and I do not intend on stealing them. If you do not wish to be included in this story please let me know and this story will be removed. I do, however, own the oc's included in this story and it would be preferred if you ask me before using them in your own work. The main character body and wings were found on google when I searched for 'character base with wings' and I cannot find the owner of the base to credit them, sorry. The background, cloak, mask and other details (such as colour and shading) were all made by me. ~thanks echo]

Not Another Hero Story (Seriously) by nosebleedz

Of heroes, villains, and doing the right thing (no matter what it costs). After losing his job as a Top Hero, Jack is left reeling with the knowledge that everything he thinks he knows about the world is wrong. Turning to the only person he knows he can trust to be honest with him comes naturally - after all, they had a shared history anyways. Being public enemies didn't really mean you couldn't know someone privately... But when he proposes dismantling the system as they know it, he doesn't really know what he's getting himself - or his new makeshift team - into. This is the introduction to something much larger than one angry man. This is a story about growth and change. A story about new beginnings and questioning everything you think you know. A 2024 ONC Novella

Evil Xisuma is released from The Void after being banished into the black abyss two years before. Now he's back in Hermitcraft, and the Hermits don't know what to think.

Um... So...yeah... I'm writing a Hermitcraft AU... Enjoy!!

Darkened Hearts by signedbyleah

It all started with a superhero, one who vowed to help save the world and use her powers for good....But how can one keep a promise if they don't remember making it? What happens when the lines to right and wrong blur? When promises have to be broken? When the one thing you thought you could never lose, your morality, comes into question. What happens when the only person in the world that understands you is the person you believed was evil. But a reputation can be fabricated, evidence can be tampered and memories can be manipulated. How does one decide who's good and who's bad? Who's the hero and who's a villain? Maybe the only real difference between the two is a change in perspective or perhaps keeping an open mind. Sometimes even a "Villain" has a good side and even a "Hero" has a bad one...so what would happen if they were to see eye to eye?....Who would be there to pull them from the deep end?...or maybe the high tide is exactly where they want to be.
