ON HIATUS || PLAGIUM'S SEQUEL
Afternoon tea, walks about the garden...and a ride on a mechanically powered steam-carriage? Enter the regency steampunk world of Plagium!
We rejoin Tracey Higgenbottom as she explores the steampunk countryside of Dnalgne.
When Tracey takes a steam-carriage to visit her childhood friend, she expects to spend the week relaxing by the ocean cliffside. Instead, she once again finds herself swept into a mystery: a crime is brewing in the village...and she's been tasked to stop it!
With the help of familiar-and new-faces, Tracey embarks on a quest to stop the culprit and reveal their identity. But things are more than meets the eye-she must be careful of whom she trusts, and the threat of failure looms large...
A steampunk mystery for all to enjoy!

First Steps Again
How does someone learn to be a baby again? To walk again, to play again? And how does a princess learn to be a mother-and to be imperfect? Alex, a 21-year-old engineering student, is suddenly pulled from his world into the land of Equestria. But now, he finds himself in the body of an almost-newborn, forced to relearn everything-while his adult mind struggles to make sense of a world that doesn't follow the same rules of physics as Earth. It's not easy when your body insists on acting like an infant. Princess Celestia, a ruler who has quietly longed to hear the word "Mom," offers to help him find a way home-if such a thing is even possible. Until then, she'll take care of him. Determined not to burden her further, Alex plays the part of a normal foal, hiding his lingering awareness. Can he maintain the charade, or will his struggle reveal the truth? And as Celestia tends to him, will she discover that motherhood isn't about perfection? I wrote this fanfic based on a simple question: Why are there so many stories that approach age change with something like, "Oh, I'm a kid again... good to know" and skipping almost the entire childhood and learning process? If you're interested, follow me on a journey of learning equine biology until midnight, making sense of the magic system, reading articles about motherhood, and improving my grammar skills (English is not my native language-Spanish is-so there might be some odd phrasing. If you find any, please let me know). Cover by vanilla-chan Thank you so much, I love the cover. Thanks to Noobblue for helping me with the idea of the story.

Tales of the Aether: A Steampunk Adventure

He believes the city's meticulous Regulators are heroes, safeguarding everyone from chaos with their powerful time-altering technology. Below, in the rust-choked, steam-filled depths, **Irene Oxide**, a fierce and resourceful mechanic, battles the insidious "Flicker-Sickness" that twists time for her people. She despises the Regulators, convinced their "fixes" are poisoning her world, and she's just found a mysterious "Broken Anchor" that might expose their deceptions. When a desperate temporal experiment throws them together, Flint and Irene find themselves unwillingly bound by a dangerous secret. He represents the ordered lie; she, the chaotic truth. As the Great Gear threatens to unravel Aethel's very existence, these two bitter rivals must navigate a treacherous landscape of shifting timelines and deadly paradoxes. Can a Desynched mechanic and a Chronometry Apprentice find common ground-or something more-before their city's manipulated past consumes its future? **Discover a world where every tick of the clock is a choice, and the greatest danger isn't just time running out, but the truth finally breaking free.**

Medium Latte for Ell-yot Hayul
[Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...

Merry Sister Mary and the One and Only Killer
🏆Wattys 2019 Winner for Mystery & Thriller🏆 Sister Mary has lost her way, or so people think. Kicked out of her convent and sent away to be reformed, this jolly nun discovers her gift of glee is perfect for solving murders and the occasional naughty peek. ________________________________________ Merry Sister Mary is the world's most happy-go-lucky nun, and where the nuns are concerned, possibly the worst. She has none of the qualities reserved for a traditional lady of the cloth: a fear of water, an odd relationship with an umbrella, and no talent in teaching or nursing, yet Sister Mary believes she has a special God given power, laughter. Such a belief has led her to be kicked out of her convent in Chicago for accidentally flashing a group of churchgoers and deemed in desperate need of reform. She is sent on a bus to a stricter convent in New Orleans, Louisiana, but in a drama fueled twist, God has different plans for the joyous nun. She is to solve a murder. After missing the bus Sister Mary is forced to seek refuge with a Catholic family in the small town of St. Francisville. A horrific murder occurs sending the town into a frenzy of bittersweet joy. The person killed has long been despised and so named the Stanton Witch for the mystery surrounding her husband's death and the decades of misfortune since her arrival. In an effort to expose the truth, Sister Mary finds herself in the middle of one family's terrible and insidious secret. As the bodies pile up she uses her gift of glee to uncover the clues missed by the police and hopefully stop the killer from claiming another innocent victim. Her goal-- prove to the world once and for all that one does not need to be traditional to make a difference.

Before the Storm
"Go." She said, not quite yelling but suddenly intense as she herded Harry back, away from the pillar and towards the tracks. "Go now, boy, or you'll miss your train!" He looked behind his shoulder, there was a train....he hadn't heard it approach. The doors were open and waiting, and for no good reason at all, he stepped inside. The strange little woman didn't follow him on, she simply stood there watching him. that same incomprehensible smile on her face. "Which path will you choose?" She asked again, just before the doors closed, replacing his view of her with his own, pale reflection. !Disclaimer!
