|| Summer of 1985 || Anthony and Thomas Banks, brothers with scarce in common, must set aside their differences when a corpse is discovered in their new home; in order to not fall back into the clutches of their evil guardian.
+++
12-year-old Anthony Banks is everything his brother is not. Short. Plain. Timid. And not a single ounce of superpowers. However, he's elated when they move in to the home of his dreams this summer: no more bullies and fiery nuns. And no more evil Diselhock.
Well, until he finds a corpse embedded in the living room wall. Wrapped in dark, slimy ivy.
16-year-old Thomas Banks has not yet gotten over the arson that had killed his parents five years ago. Not when their guardian Keith Diselhock's been hanging it over his head like the sword of Damocles. But not anymore, at least. He's managed to secure a deal; all they have to do is not cause trouble.
Piece of cake, right?
With the ghastly corpse in their new home, reemerging friends & foes, and a sinister ice cream truck that keeps the neighbors out of sight, will Tony and Tom live peacefully in this "pristine" neighborhood?

Always light the candles
We are too drunk and he is too close and even though we are in a room full of people, we are too alone. -------------------------- Notes: This fan fiction is dedicated to people who have experienced loss, people who were bullied, who struggled with their sexuality and or their race. People who use humour as their coping mechanism. People who feel like outcasts and freaks. People who fell in love with their best friends. You are not alone. You are Albus. And this is our story. It is also dedicated to grief, for showing me the true price for love. And most importantly dedicated to my one and only best friend. This story would not have seen the light of day, had our paths not diverged and our friendship not quietly scattered to the winds. In the closing of chapters, I made sure that the echo of our promises that we once held were not just words, but something truly heard. I will never not think of you during storms. Make sure to leave your thoughts and enjoy ;) This story can be also found on Ao3.Complete

The Veil Of Infinity|avengers
He never let anyone close. Not because he didn't care - but because he feared what might happen if they saw too much, or if he trusted too deeply. All his life, he kept others safe. He was the shield, the silent guardian who made sure everyone else could smile, live, and breathe in peace. Yet no one ever asked if he was happy. No one noticed when the weight grew too heavy. Until one day, he was simply... gone. And when the world needed him most, he wasn't there. But they must find him. Because the greatest threat to the universe... is also its greatest protector. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Tony groaned. "Seriously, Cap, if I die from god-poison pancakes, you're paying for the funeral." "-Well, you do realize, Tin Can," Loki drawled, sliding a plate across the counter toward Tony, "if you're going to die, Rogers will die with you. Or maybe not. Since he's a super soldier. And Doctor Banner here..." his lips curved into a grin, "...I've heard he's immune to poison .So really, Stark, it will be just your funeral. Good." ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ "First thing-no one knows who he was. He is called the man of myths for a reason. Second, why would such a being concern himself with a band of mortals who can barely keep their own city from collapsing? Third, where he came from... no one knows." His grin widened, sharp and knowing. "There is only one thing all the realms agree upon: in every universe, in every whispered story, he is known as the Protector of the Universe." .............................................................................. #bxb #moc #avengers #maturethemes #loki #tony #captain America #maturel

Becoming Her Dark Side
They lied to me. My own family. My so-called friends. All of them hiding the truth, that we're tied to the criminal underworld, a forte where my family, the Storms, are the undisputed kings. Then everything falls apart. My dad gets framed. My cousin ends up dead. And the boy I've had a childhood crush on-Nathaniel-turns out to be the one who could destroy me. At least Luke, the one person I shouldn't want, fights to keep me from breaking... but even he has secrets. But it's gets even worse, because now an organization is rising from the shadows, an organization that opposes everything my family stands for. And in a family of warmongers and sociopaths, I stood out as a glaring weakness. The most normal, the most vulnerable, and the most efficient way to end a dynasty that has ruled for centuries. Because what is a throne without an heir, and a crown without its king. So here I am, stuck in a game of blood and betrayal where the only way to survive is to stop being the fragile girl they thought I was. If I have to burn bridges, spill blood, and embrace the monster inside me, then so be it. Because this time, I'm not running from my darkness. I'm becoming it.

In a quiet town wrapped in fog and secrets, something ancient stirs beneath the surface. When new blood enters a neighborhood already weighed down by silence, curiosity can become dangerous. Some doors are locked for a reason... and some truths are meant to stay buried. But for April, once she knocks-there's no turning back. ⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧ April had always been curious about the new boy named Gregory, who had moved into her neighborhood. He was quiet, always alone, with a stare that seemed too heavy for someone his age. Rumors began to spread-whispers of screams in the night and strange symbols drawn in red near the woods.

Her dreams became disturbed, filled with flickering shadows and haunting whispers that spoke his name. Unexplained disappearances and brutal attacks from a mysterious creature started happening. Victims were found torn apart-no trace of the attacker, only claw marks and eerie silence. And April happened to be stalked by something lurking through the shadows.
