... Ever wondered how is life on the other side?
A man wakes up on a train without any recollection of his identity, no sense of purpose: where he comes from, or where he is going. Searching for answers in any shape, taste or form, he accidentally crosses paths with a mysterious Holly Golightly femme-fatale vowing to help him... if not destroy him in the process. 
So, the usual, right? Guy meets girl, girl means trouble, adventure joins uninvited. But then there's Sophie. And her cat. And whole bunch of unasked-for fellas. And from then on...  
...well, it all gets a little out of hand. 
You see, how do you find purpose in life... when life already left you?
Just another day in the Norwhere.

A dream-like rollercoaster about what it really means to be alive, and the ties that bind us to our humanity. About what we are to do with the most precious treasure in existence.
Time.

Wounded Heart βœ” by Ruhi_93
57 parts Complete
She loved him with devotion so fierce it scorched every heartbeat, every glance. He was her obsession, her reason to breathe, and her undoing. But while her world revolved around him, he remained distant-a presence, never hers. "How do you let go of someone who is the air in your lungs and the ache in your heart?" "He is my breath, and I will forget him when I forget to breathe." Memories burned bright and untouchable-hers alone. She clung to each haunted fragment, every echo of forbidden love. Until fate, honouring a promise to Aashi, forced her into the arms of the man whose heart was a graveyard. "I married you to fulfil her last wish. You will never belong here." His words cut deep-cold, calculated, meant to wound. Cruelty hid his storm. Her silence was her weapon, her pain a fortress. "You think you know pain?" she spat, her eyes blazing. "I live it every day." He turned away, fists clenched. "You don't belong. This will never be your home." Yet, in their grief and fury, sparks flew, igniting something dangerous. "Love and hate are two sides of the same burning coin." When apologies come too late, and regret drowns truth, love risks turning to ash. She walks away, her heart in ruins. He falls, shattered-vowing to bleed, to burn, to reignite the fire in her eyes. "Some hearts are forged in fire. Some burn to ashes." Even if it destroys him. πŸ“… Start Date: 28th October 2019 ⏳ End Date: 23rd October 2020 ✏️ Edited Date: 2026
ANOMALY - Afterlife series #1 by StephRose1201
28 parts Ongoing Mature
A woman wakes in a train station, but it's not your usual station--it's AFTERLIFE, where souls line up after their deaths and wait to be sorted, sent to their final fate. But *how* did she get there, and why is she apparently dead? *** Evalilly doesn't even know *why* she ended up here, and has no memory of why she *might* be dead; but she's here, in Afterlife, in an office, talking to a train station manager who assures her that she's not quite alive. She's in a coma, and normally, comatose don't venture to Afterlife. Meaning she's actually...an anomaly--a soul that doesn't obey rules. While exploring the station, she stumbles into Juniper, a "ticket collector" with a penchant for not following orders. She takes Evalilly on a wild ride through the realms that compose Afterlife, and also exposes to her all the true facets of this world of the dead. These true facets hit Evalilly hard, and she's starting to wonder if it might be better if she woke up and forgot about all this; but a strange tether to Juniper makes her want to stick around and fight the cause Juniper stands for: Anomalies against Afterlife Injustices. But she's also terrified; if she dies, and isn't *in* the main train station when her body fully releases her soul, she may become lost forever, and her soul will never be given the chance to recycle... Evalilly wants that chance, but what if her fate is for her soul to wander aimlessly around Afterlife until the end of time? She'll only know if she wakes up...or dies.

⊱ ━━━━.β‹… Ρïз β‹….━━━━ ⊰ "What's that?" she reached up for him, his face in her palm as she examined whatever was there. She pressed on it, and it kind of stung. "Did that hurt?" "Not really," he muttered. "Are you sure?" and he nodded. "It looks a bit swollen. It might've come from when you hit the ground or, something... I don't even know. It's just a small bruise, though, so I guess it's okay?" "Thanks, Doctor," he teased, and she pouted, the warmth of her skin leaving as she settled back into her seat. "How is it my fault you like to fight?" She crossed her arms in front of her chest, and he fully leaned in. His hand was no longer on the edge of the back cushions; rather, it had moved to her thigh. "How is it my fault you look good tonight?" he whispered in her ear. "Girls like you make me love to fight." β‹†π™šβ‚ŠΛšβŠΉβ™‘ After leaving his short-term relationship with his next-door neighbour, Grey scrambles to find the remaining pieces of the largest puzzle that he was born into: his life- only to trample over a tiny, tiny thing. It was a misstep, really... he'd never meant to stumble into her that day. Now he did, he could never let her go. After moving to a new place in her new town of Hazelwood Heights, July came to find new connections and new beginnings... She didn't intend to make the school's bad boy her friend, or her boyfriend, God forbid. But the tides were quickly changing in their newfound friendship, and through good or for worse, through thick and thin, they'd go through it together, right? ⊱ ━━━━.β‹… Ρïз β‹….━━━━ ⊰ BEST RANKS!
