"You look like a stalker, you act like a stalker, you smell like a stalker, so you must be a stalker."
"But to be a 'stalker,' I'd have to be human."

Suzette Williams was always so fascinated by outer space beyond the human eye can see. The way the stars twinkled in the midnight sky, just like how her eyes twinkled with amazement from the unknown black depths that were claimed unreachable. She knew there was life out there, there just had to be. Did they look like humans? Did they have huge green heads and black almond shaped eyes? Out of the whole entire universe, Earth can't be the only rocky planet with life.
And she was right.
It was sometime around midnight when she was doing her nightly stargazing, that was when it happened.
That was the moment she realized. She realized that there really was life outside of her world, beyond her solar system.
Funny thing is, though, that she wasn't exactly sure what they would look like.
Until now.

Breaking the Chains of Destiny
A Modern Royal Love Story Serena was supposed to be the villainess. In the world of Crowned by Love, she was fated to be Prince Kale Olliric's unwanted fiancée-arrogant, bitter, and doomed to be exiled when he fell for the novel's heroine. But Serena has a secret. She's not the same Serena. She woke up at the age of three with memories of her past life-a life where she had read this story before and knew exactly how it ended. Refusing to be a pawn in a tragic tale, she carves her own path, away from nobility and the royal court. Instead of chasing after a prince, she becomes a world-class athlete, an Olympic figure skater and a tennis champion. She builds her own fortune, invests wisely, and even opens her own teahouse-an escape from the chains of nobility. She is finally free. Or so she thought. When Prince Kale unexpectedly walks into her café, drawn to the woman who should have been his fiancée but has become something entirely different, Serena knows her carefully built walls are beginning to crack. He shouldn't care about her-she's done everything in her power to make sure of that. Yet, for the first time, the cold and untouchable prince seems intrigued. Now, Serena faces a choice: run further from fate or stand her ground against the prince who should have never noticed her. After all, she already defied the story once. What's stopping her from rewriting it completely? This is my original work, it is based on modern day royaltyComplete

But for Zuan." ***An Ekko x Self Insert Fanfiction*** -Story begins a few days before season 1 episode 4- In the depths of Zaun, where the air is thick with smoke and desperation, Y/N moves like a shadow-hood drawn low, carrying secrets heavier than the smog that chokes the streets.

The boy who escaped the cycle of ruin, now a man leading the Firelights with hope burning in his chest.

Their paths tangle in the chaos of rebellion, their shared goal forcing them together, even as the weight of their differences threatens to pull them apart. Y/N is torn between two worlds-one built on control and destruction, the other on fragile dreams. As she battles her own demons and the ghosts of the Undercity, she begins to question if salvation is even possible in a place that only knows tragedy.
