"Wow, aren't you a warm ray of sunshine? Look, I know you like bets, so let's make one. If anything goes wrong i'll take full responsibility and pay you the 20% without even a hiss, but if my suspicion ends up being correct, you will have to admit I am an excellent detective, and my deduction abilities are flawless."
God, she loved safe bets. And thanks to this asshole's ego, she would get her money without having to do anything for it.
"Okay, you are on, pirate."
"Actually, I'm a privateer, not a pirate. Just a formality really, but still, not a pirate"
"For fucks sake, you are unbelievable."
Veronica Hayes was pissed, she had always felt way too much, and saying she didn't like it was an euphemism. She knew it was a sign of weakness, especially when she was grisha in a world that didn't hold much empathy to those with her gifts. She didn't like the feeling, so her alternative was to either freeze or run, little did she know that a certain privateer, just wouldn't let her do it this time.

Away Isn't Far Enough
This Bones fanfiction is set after the third season. Sweet's explained, “That’s a little exercise, if you will, that I like to call The Truth is Out There.” Booth chuckled. “That explains a lot about you, Sweets!” He turned to his partner. “He's a X-Files shipper.” “You ship sex files?” she asked, lost. “What’s that mean?” Booth laughed even louder. Mind in the gutter, much? “Not sex files. The X-Files. The TV show. Mulder and Scully.” Those names sounded familiar to her. “Do I have to watch this show? I think you’ve mentioned those names before.” “Ask Hodgins. He probably have the dvds somewhere.” “Why? What’s it about?” Brennan asked. Booth said, “Aliens. Conspiracies...” But Sweets said, “FBI guy, female doctor, partners fighting crime and falling in love.” The silence that set in, even Brennan would have qualified it as ‘heavy’. Even though you can’t weight silence. “Remember the questionnaire you took when you first started therapy?” Sweets finally said. Oh. My. God. “I’m giving them back to you. I want you to...” “Destroy them?” Booth mumbled. “No.” “Frame them?” he suggested. “Are they graded?” Brennan said to make Booth laugh. "Good one!" he said, high fiving her. She loved making him laugh. “I want you, as a last assignment, to share your answers with the other.” Booth hugged the file tightly on his chest. “You can’t make us to that,” he refused. “That’s personal.” “And that’s exactly why you should share.” “You know,” Booth said, “he would never know if we shared or not. We don’t have to...” Curiosity probably was a sin. But she wasn’t catholic. “Does agent Booth have a body in his dresser?” Booth frowned, repeated the words to himself, then his clear laugh filled the elevator. She smiled.Complete
Memoriam ➳ The Darkling
[GrishaVerse au, prequel to Shadow&Bone] {The problem with wanting is that it makes us weak.} What could possibly go wrong if another Shadow Summoner discovered her powers... in Fjerda? As the Drüsje runs for her life, the destiny's path leads her to the Little Palace in Os Alta. And to the Darkling. {You shall master your powers and once you are ready, Valkyrja Nørgaard, perhaps we might even change the world.} *** "[...] Plus, black is your colour. Even I know that. Everyone knows that." "Yes, you're right, black is my colour." the Darkling spoke while he sent me one of his dazzling looks. "But it doesn't have to be mine alone." *** A soft, scolding chuckle left Baghra's lips. "You're scared aren't you?" she asked me. "Becoming just like him scares you? Power corrupts people, girl. Tell me, don't you keep wanting for more when he amplifies you?" *** {The Darkling x OC} 21/06/2021 & 03/09/2025 - 🥇 in #ShadowandBone (03.05.2021 - ??)
Take You Back
"To bastards!" I said, gesturing to Vincent and Mason. "And to the girls that endure all the pain." I clicked Tina's glass while she watched me take another glass, "And to the absolute horror of getting a divorce a week before your birthday because you were stupid enough to like the bastard." I bowed while everyone stared at me. The anger radiated off Vincent while I took another glass. "This one is for you, my loving husband." I chuckled slurring as I got up, "I mean ex-husband, and you, if you may, please get the fuck out." I pointed between Mason and Vincent, a hiccup escaping my lips. "Both of you. Faith was the only thing that brought them back together, but will it be on their side again? Vincent and Laura had known each other since they were children. He searched for twelve years just to get her back, and when he did, his past began to emerge from the shadows, ready to claw back at him for all of his mistakes. Vincent Johnson, dubbed the "King of Business," was not to be underestimated. He made an impression on the world that no one could forget. He was domineering, and he drew a great deal of attention from many across the world. No one could ever match his power because he was godlike. But there was one who didn't care about his criteria and didn't consider him to be a god. Laura Smith, the girl who stole his heart. [[Word Count: 91,000- 100,000]] Cover was done by me.

Promise? I Promise: Rewritten
This will be my last ever Rancher fic. I tried to give them a second chance, but this is the final story I will write with them being cute. ~ "Some of you may be looking at the title and think wait...didn't we already do this? And you'd be correct. Honestly, I was really worried to redo this story, but Seth assured me that we'd be okay. And I also made sure to read through her scripts before I signed up for something dark again. Don't fear though, it's not as bad as it was. Especially because- " "I'm here!" Tango burst out from behind the scenes and Jimmy couldn't stop his laughter from escaping his mouth. "Hey guys! I'm here now since that cotton candy haired unicorn lover was busy." Tango said, shrugging. "So I hope you enjoy this newer, better version of Promise? I Promise." Jimmy said, reciting his lines. "We, heh, promise it's just as good." Tango elbowed Jimmy, who laughed. "Oh my cod, that's so cringe!" Jimmy giggled and Tango grinned. ~ (Cover art is not mine) This work belongs to me, @Seth189. I reserve the rights to this work and please do not repost it. It takes me a long time to come up with this stuff and it would be better to write your own work!! I do not post on Ao3 or any other site, if you see my work on there please let me know so I can handle it, thank you.Complete
A Coin Has Two Sides (Season Two) || Kaz Brekker x OC
Every coin has two sides. The same can be said for people. Her name is Wysteria Kirigan. A rare type of Grisha. A shadow summoner. After the events of her trip to Ravka, chaos is taking over her life as she is trying to balance the conflicting sides of herself. The Ravkan side and the side of her that belongs to Ketterdam. Her light side and her dark side. The side of her that might love a certain Bastard of the Barrel and the side that is telling her not too. The question remains. Which side will she land on? [Kaz Brekker x fem!OC] Season Two SPOILER WARNING WARNING : This story involves some strong language, reference to sexual themes, and reference to physical and verbal abuse. NOTE : Hi everyone! Welcome to the third part of this series. This part follows the plot line of the second season of Shadow and Bone on Netflix. I would recommend going to read the first two parts to get some sense of the relationships between this OC and the other characters but I tried my best not to make it a necessity. As always, I can only take credit for the OC's in this fanfic. All other rights go to Netflix and the incredible Leigh Bardugo. GO AND STREAM SHADOW AND BONE We need our renewal and spin-off ... I hope you all enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it xxComplete
The privateer and his tracker
So um... after watching Shadow and Bone season 2 (which I could talk about for hours), I got slightly obsessed with the whole Nikolai x Mal shipping (especially since the actors gave us quite some content). I'm not really an experienced writer but I wrote a series of these "training scenes" and such to give myself more Nikomal fluff and figured it'd be fun to share it. English is not my first language so don't expect too much, but here are some simple Nikolai x Mal ficlets I wrote <3. Also: it gets better with every chapter. '"I'm flattered that you care about how I feel in your company," he threw back with a chuckle and a roll of his eyes, stopping for a second. "I have to impress the king of Ravka somehow," came a reply in a suggestive voice and oh, how Nikolai wished, even yearned to hear that tone, preferably with Mal's head between... okay, no. Nikolai had to chill out a bit. But of course, he doesn't know how to do that so he quickly bit back. "Oh, you impress me plenty, tracker," and just because he felt daring added a wink.'Complete
Much Ado About Vulcan (A Spock Love Story) - COMPLETE
"Maybe it's time we stopped trying to stay away from each other," I said, surprising myself with my confidence. A tiny smirk of a smile skittered across his top lip, and before he could say anything in response, I stood on my tiptoes and crushed my lips to his. ****************************** Spock is a Vulcan, he abhors all emotional responses. Alex is completely different, and everything Spock doesn't want. She's crude, messy, unorganised and has a laugh like a drunken hyena. Spock dislikes her from the offset, but as they get closer together, can the two of them prove that opposites really do attract? Rated for swearing (SERIOUSLY I SWEAR A LOT IN MY WRITING BE W A R N Ed) and a few sexual situations (one of the chapters nearer the end is for 18+ only, you'll know when you get to it) ************************* A Slow-Burn Spock OC romance with oodles of sass and tension, read the first chapter and see what you think... Reveiws (from ff.net) 'This is so adorable, I genuinely had to stop reading a few times to fangirl. Please continue soon, this was amazing to read and I aspire to be as good a writer as you. Also everyone should read this, it's cracking.' 'I don't usually review but I feel this fanfic deserves it as it captures the characters amazingly, the writing is witty and spectacular, the story is awesome and I am always left wanting more, thank you for providing this fanfic, it's amazing. Also I look forward to more sass between Spock and Birchwood.'Complete
