The shadowflux was changing him. Tam could tell that every day he practiced using the dark substance, he became... less himself. He just didn't realize how much until it was too late.

An alternate ending to Lodestar (Caution, may contain Lodestar/Nightfall spoilers!) (But you might have to read Nightfall to get it. You'll see.)

Keeper of the Lost Cities: The Second Moonlark (a KOTLC/MLB crossover)
The Black Swan had kept everyone in the dark for fourteen years. Sure, they had kept Sophie Foster from the Lost Cities for twelve years, but they had another large secret that had gone on for even longer. You see, the Black Swan had been prepared. Like with the two Forkles, the shadowy organization had a trick up its sleeve... And it was all discovered thanks to Keefe Sencen running away to the Forbidden Cities. He winds up in Paris, France, and soon finds himself meeting none other than Adrien Agreste. However, Adrien himself has been plagued with nightmares, being haunted by places and things he doesn't know about, but yet can feel a sense of familiarity and home with the images. What's even stranger than that? Other than Keefe, he's beginning to hear voices. Not just physical voices. Their mental voices. Because the Black Swan had made a second moonlark. Continuing right after "Unlocked," "The Second Moonlark" forces everyone to begin to question everything around them, including their own identities. (I'm trying to channel my inner Shannon Messenger here, so yeah. Shannon, you deserve the credit for the amazing Keeper of the Lost Cities series, and Zagatoon, you get the credit for MLB!) notable rankings: #1 in "keeperofthelostcities" (11/11/2022)Complete

My Moonlark
The Neverseen has fallen. The Lost Cities are rejoicing, finally being able to taste freedom. Sophie Foster was at a loss. It was hard to remember that victory was on their side when she had to witness the damage the Neverseen has caused. She was in desperate need of finding out how to let go of who she was before, and start to be who she wants to be. Keefe Sencen was struggling. He wasn't sure of what to make of his thoughts, and was scared of their implications. He kept wishing for a way to turn back time; to see if he could've done things a different way. But sometimes, all he needs may be a solid reminder that he wouldn't be where he was if it wasn't for his decision at every crossroads. When the only way to seek solace was from each other, how far would they go to regain all that is lost? A one-shot, split into parts, about Sophie and Keefe's first date. Hope you enjoy it:) Warning: If you haven't read Unlocked, stop everything you're doing and read it immediately because its AMAZING (And because SPOILER ALERT!)Complete

Nightfall (KotLC)
This is my version of what would happen after the end of Lodestar. I try to keep it true to the stories and how the characters would act. I'm so excited for the actual Nightfall book to come out! There are definitely spoilers from Lodestar, so don't read this if you haven't finished the series. *All characters, settings, and this cover belong to Shannon Messenger* *The quotes I put in each chapter belong to me (well the quotes are from kotlc but I made them like that so yeah)*Complete

Misfit |KotLC AU|
Sophie knew first hand what it felt like not being able to fit in. She lived with it for most of her life; since her parents died, and she skipped grades more than once, she was used to people looking at her weird. But it's the moment they don't when it gets to you. ********* Keeper of the Lost Cities AU in which Sophie's parents are dead, Fitz smiles too much, Dex is just...there, Keefe is an artist, Biana spends money everywhere, and somewhere in there is a story with a bad ending. Most chapters will be pretty short. Sorry 'bout that. ********* abandoned story, I'm sorry 🤡Complete
