Part 1 of The Universe of False Pretenses

The solicitor was convinced that the only way to salvage the Malfoy family name was marriage to a certain muggle-born witch.

"Granger is one of the people who has witnessed every single negative aspect of my personality. The moment she sees me act decent, her defenses will shoot up. She'll know from her gut that something is wrong." Draco paused, twirling the glass of firewhiskey in his hand.

"So... you're going to offer it to her? Like a deal?" Blaise was positively sure that the Malfoy heir had gone mental. What could he possibly present to his longtime mortal enemy to get her to agree?

*A story that uses the most common tropes in Dramione fanfiction... Then changes how it's done.

Young Sherlock | School of Deduction (Book One) by LuceCanon

- COMPLETED - (To be edited.) Sherlock Holmes is far from your ordinary human being, and now he's moved to London he's realised that either he is exceptionally intelligent or that everybody else is exceptionally stupid. Maybe even both. But when he starts college, he meets Sophie Marie Thompson - someone like him. The unusual pair quickly become good friends - but someone doesn't seem too happy with the arrangement. As people start disappearing all around them, it's up to them to solve the case because if they don't - they're next. #442 in Mystery/Thriller, 6th Feb 2016! Note: My story comes under more than one Wattpad category but I think that Mystery/Thriller is a better way to summarise the plot rather than just placing this work under the broad arm of Fanfiction. This is why I would like this work classed as a Mystery/ Thriller. Sorry if you think this is in the wrong category.

A Permanent Lineage [ Thranduil X OC ] by InTheMaddeningCrowd

SEQUEL to "A Lasting Legacy" "... A taste can be worse than never having any..." It's been almost a decade since Lady Arden took her rightful place as ruler of Ardor and things have never been better. In record time, she turned a vast jungle into a prosperous and bustling kingdom. No longer do the other races look down upon her and her kin as homeless and unwanted nomads, instead they see a powerful and rich culture rooted in the land. While the new Queen has made many allies, the secret of Ardors' wealth has been well kept, making her worry over who would protest her reign should it come to light. However an even bigger issue than the truth of Ardors' wealth presents itself, as the orcs that once threatened her and Thranduil have become an even bigger problem. They have grown bolder and carried out more attacks against both the woodland elves and the jungle elves, necessitating that the 2 rulers come together once more and finally slay the filth. But Arden will need to overcome her animosity with Thranduil by finally answering the correspondences he has sent in vain for years. Once she does will Thranduil be able to admit his true feelings for her? Will she accept them? And will both kingdoms finally be able to move forwards together, creating a permanent Lineage for its people? *should not be read as a stand-alone* September 10th, 2019

Goodbye Astarion [Astarion X NB Tav] by ItsFinnleyMan

Astarion ascended just like he wanted. Tav helped just like he asked. People change just like they were warned. Fair warning: Ascended Astarion is the villain, Tav frequently disassociates and justifies Astarion's behavior to themselves and the other companions. Domestic violence is implied but not depicted out-right. Verbal abuse is kept to a minimum. Two major characters will die eventually. An alternative epilogue at Withers' party. Still in progress but I feel inspired and it's a short one. I will probably update frequently I haven't written fanfiction in 11 years. Go easy on me lol Finally, this work has been cross-posted here and on AO3. These are the only places I have published it, if you're reading this somewhere else it's been stolen.
