Bea Porter-Blanchet, after two years of mindless copywriting in the attic of the Hamlyn "O" Courant, is finally promoted to the downstairs City desk in late 1959 where she'll work alongside (the tall) Arthur Hastings, (the inquisitive) Gemma Olsen, (the irritating) Danny Defoe, (the dull) Clive Hamilton, and (the dour) Mary Anne Evans and Currer Bell. While she juggles her new workplace friendships (and not-so-friendships) she must distract from an increasingly pressing issue that'll require coming to terms with past regrets.
Marked Mature for swearing and drug use consistent with the WHF universe. But if you enjoy office drama trivialities and a seemingly pointless story that may eventually have a point, please read on. Also - just to assuage any worries, I fully believe that Arthur MUST end up with Sally. Who am I to interfere with that?
This is my first stab at anything like this, so if it's terrible or inaccurate or grammatically incorrect or an affront to the fandom, consider this fair warning. Crossposted to AO3 under asymptotally
I promise it's not in french lol it's just a bad joke

Don't run from me (Book 3)
I leaned back against the wall "It's been so long hasn't it?" "Yes, it has... I think the last time I saw you was high school graduation." "Exactly, and I waved at you and was making my way to you but you had disappeared." "Oh, I..." she looked around as if looking for an escape making me smile. She was so adorable. "Hey, it's okay" I chuckled "Don't worry about it. I just always wondered why you kept running from me throughout high school. It was hard keeping up with you, to be honest." Her smile faded and she just shrugged before leaning down to pick up her things "Well, it was nice seeing you again Mr. Walton." "Mr. Walton? Where did that come from?" "It seems we'll be working together now, it's only fair I call you Mr. Walton. It wouldn't be appropriate otherwise." I frowned standing up "Are you running from me again?" After a harsh breakup, Mason Walton's life changed upside down. Instead of being the considerate boyfriend he always was, he became the biggest playboy of all time. He wasn't particularly proud of it, it just was a way to keep his mind off of Celine who shattered his heart in pieces without a care in the world. Are all the one-night stands working? Is he forgetting about Celine? What happens when the playboy runs into his all-time high school crush Katrina Johnson just before a very important meeting? ******* AN: None of the places and characters are real Daily update🥰Complete
Camelot Is Typing...
DISCONTINUED - Thank you for all the wonderful support on this book! I truly appreciate all the comments and kudos <3 But I have decided to discontinue the book. I started writing this in 2018 when I was still a teenager, but I'm in my 20s now and don't feel comfortable continuing to write it. Part of the appeal of writing this book back then was the spiciness and drama. The only way I'd feel right continuing this book is if I left those parts out, but then it wouldn't be same. There's a chance I'd rewrite this book one day where the characters can be adults with all the spice and drama I want, but until then, this is it. Thank you again for your support <3 *Hot Knight has created a group chat* 𝗛𝗼𝘁 𝗞𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: Percival is sick. So if anyone's come into contact with him, you're quite possibly fucked. 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗹𝘀: god damn it.

You Must Remember This
Dedicated to my friend and fellow Sebastian Stan fan, Deborah AMBYS FAVORITE 2024 Bucky Barnes is targeted by a relentless assassin and must unravel his turbulent past with the woman he has only known hatred for to face his greatest nemesis. *** Following the fallout that caused the Avengers to disband, Steve Rogers entrusts his friend Bucky Barnes to the Crown Prince of Wakanda. But soon after, an assassin is captured in Wakanda. Her codename: Nemesis. Her mission: to eliminate the Winter Soldier. As Steve and Bucky seek answers, they uncover a surprising link to Evelyn Rogers, Steve's twin sister. They learn that she perished in a fire in the 1960s, with the only thing retrieved from the ashes being a strongbox containing several letters and a carefully wrapped package addressed to James Buchanan Barnes. Among Evelyn's belongings is her diary, an unexpected bequest given her and Bucky's mutual animosity. And how could she possibly have known he was still alive? Encouraged by Steve, Bucky reads Evelyn's final words, and page by page, his memories return. But as he nears the end of the diary, it becomes clear that some memories should have remained lost. *** [[This story is finished; average word count per chapter - 3.300]] IMPORTANT; please read the author's note for all trigger warnings.

KOTLC: the Gay Revolution
Author's note: Hi!!! I'm Bear! This is my first fanfic, so please give me feedback. Um, the perspectives are going to shift between adults and kids, so...yeah. And also, if you're homophobic, don't read this. It's pretty queer. Lastly, all characters belong to Shannon Messenger. #1 in Sophiana, 8/23/25 Description: Sophie Foster has a problem. Her relationship with her boyfriend, Keefe Sencen, doesn't seem to be...working. Her trauma from that final fight with the Neverseen has been hard to unpack, and amidst it all, Sophie finds herself dreaming of teal eyes...but she doesn't like Fitz anymore-right? And also... Fitz is depressed Tam is lonely Biana loves the one person she never thought she'd love Linh is traumatized Marella is scarred Dex feels-no, is-forgotten And Keefe...well, he loves someone else...someone other than Foster. It's not just the kids. There's also Councilor Alina-the gossip and rumors of the wedding incident* follow her around, but they're not exactly correct. Oralie is deep in guilt and regret...all she wants is love, but she seems to mess it up each time. Tiergan has been in love with his best friend since forever, but it's never been reciprocated. Elwin struggles with his queer identity, confiding in Livvy, then finding they're not as different as Elwin once thought...
Danger Zone
Jules works freelance for various publications after a burnout that literally brought her to her knees. She gets asked to "interview" for a role in Tom's team, especially the German speaking market (we just assume that kinda role exists). She is skeptical to work for him out of fear to be reeled in re: Scientology. Also, due to a VERY ugly breakup with a previous client which led to her compensating her anger with more and more work which eventually caused the burnout, she has one rule: "I don't date my clients!" But once she gets to work with him, and Tom gets to know her better, they start to understand each other. However - there's the anti psychiatry stance of Scientology which will be forever between them. But will it really? Can Tom win her heart and will Jules be able to untangle his Scientology web? ****** DISCLAIMER: this is purely a product of my imagination. Aside from the original characters - Jules, Nora and some others - I don't own any of the people in the story. I also don't own the songs that are being quoted at the end of each chapter. Also, the story was in the making and being written already before some more recent events happened. Therefore, the timeline in the story at the time of writing is different from actual, real life events (e.g. Oscar Nominees Luncheon). ****** PS: if you're looking for smut - go elsewhere ;)Complete
