A Melody Written in the Stars ~ Ruikasa (Royal x Fantasy AU)
"Come on, Mizuki! Pleeeeaase~?" Rui frowned when Mizuki declined his request using Lingua Aquatilis, the ancient language of the merfolk. Rui had always longed to see what life was like on Terra Firma. He wanted to explore the above-water continent and learn about the culture of the sorcerers and the Lupus people. But, above all, he yearned to find out how the technology and the magic from up above worked! However, Rui was the son of the King of the merfolk; neither he nor his sister, Nene, were permitted to even graze the surface of the water with a single scale. This was because of the Old Debacle, as the merfolk called it. It was a war between the sorcerers and the merpeople. Once the merfolk were on the brink of losing, the young prince of Terra Firma at the time, named Solis, snuck out to the ocean one night and struck a deal with the opponent. If they promised that they would not hurt his people any longer, then he would tell the kingdom that he had eliminated the entirety of them in the darkness of the night with his magic. Sadly, Solis was a victim in a terrible outbreak, and he was killed by the circulating virus. Tsukasa was a descendant of the kind prince. Some called him the reincarnation of Solis himself due to his incredible power, but little did the townsfolk know that he had another thing in common with his deceased, famed ancestor... ...and neither did they know that he would find himself falling in love with a merman.
Letters to God (Compact Version)
I feel I should offer a disclaimer; this will not be a book of pretty words and flowing writing. It might even have an odd format with short stories, prayers, poems, journal entries, and autobiographical tendencies. There will be raw, unfiltered emotion because I have always been a very emotionally driven person, prone to oversharing. This isn't a tutorial or a teaching manual, or a guide to Christianity. It is my personal journey in discovering The Way. My ongoing path from religion to having a personal relationship with the Living God. The idea for Letters to God has been with me for years. At first, as a blog post, but that didn't appeal to me as much, for my heart has always leaned toward writing books. Then I tried sharing parts of it as short stories, but that didn't sit well with me either. Subconsciously, I've been working on this for years. Of late, the Holy Spirit keeps putting the title in my head, and I've finally gotten the message. (Extended version and book 2 available on Ink*tt.)Complete
A Full Moon Is Poison to Some, to Others, Magic (One Shot)
"What do you believe in, Midoriya?" He asked simply. "What?" The man sighed, "Call me superstitious, but I believe in things that most men don't. Those beliefs are ingrained in me, they dictate my actions and they've saved my life. My gut tells me man should never have entered this place, so I listen." He looked serious and yet unbothered all at once as he turned his face towards the sky, taking his cigarette to tap the ash off into the sea. "If you believe in anything at all, I'd get back on this damn boat kid." Izuku was many things; Reckless? Certainly. A Coward? Never. **WARNINGS: Referenced sexual and physical assault, torture, blood, gore, violence. PLEASE read with these in mind.** P.s. This is about 20k words so strap in. -------------------------------------------------------------- This was first written for the MerMay 2023 challenge on AO3. The title for this work is paraphrased from Harriet Prescott Spofford's 'The Amber Gods, and Other Stories'. First published to Wattpad, 01/11/2024 from my AO3 account.

Malibongwe
This is a journal I wrote while I was on a week long mission trip in South Africa. You'll read stories about my adventure to South Africa, interactions with the locals, the amazing food, and most importantly how God used that week to transform me, those on the mission team, and those who we interacted with. Before each day I have a reference verse as a thought or concentration for the day. Hope it is encouraging to you! I will hopefully be able to update this story weekly!Complete
Shotgun to the Heart
"Goddess," he begged. "Please help me protect my people." "God," Another one prayed in the front seat of his truck. "Please help me keep my kids safe." "They're all I have left." They both spoke in unison, reaching the ears of their respective deities. They were both some of the strongest men of faith, going through so much hardship. While one tries to protect their home, another seeks to find a safe one for his family. "I believe it's time," She spoke to the woman next to her. High in the sky they floated, their dresses dancing in the moonlight. While her dress was one with the beams of soft white light, the other woman had a dress of gold, showing the sunlight that she mainly stayed in. Her wings were pure white, her hair a vibrant red. She had much color, while she kept with the soft colors of the moon, her own hair white and long, soft as silk. "I can't promise that it will be perfect in the beginning," the angel spoke, looking down at the man in the truck. "But he is of a kind heart, even if it is untrusting at first." "I'm sure Declan can handle that," the Goddess of the Moon smiled at her. "Out of all the challenges he has faced, I'm positive that this won't be difficult for him to achieve." "Out of all the challenges that my soldier has faced," the angel grew a worried look. "I'm worried that this might be the most difficult." *** Wolf Peak has many tales of good and bad, but never has it struggled as much as it was right then. At this point, they're willing to take any chances they can to save their residents from evil in the forests. Even if that means trusting a new family coming into town. With clashing religions and trigger fingers, both men are in for a bumpy ride.Complete
