Leighton wakes with no memory in the Darklands, a strange world filled with things that make no sense, a world where the only way out is to face the past. He only remembers one thing: A girl with coral eyes, with a sword in her hands. How he is connected to her, he doesn't know, but he does know she is his only chance of remembering anything. And therefore, his only chance of returning to- well, wherever he came from.
But with the memory comes a feeling, a feeling that he does not understand, a feeling of deep betrayal and brokeness, and it is then he comes to a startling conclusion: If he remembers everything, it will either save him or break him.
"Have you ever felt like no matter where you go, you can't possibly escape yourself? That you are the problem. Well, that's me. Only I don't remember why I'm broken, so there's no way to fix me."
Free remembers nothing but two words: Find Leighton. That and the guilt that eats away at her heart, guilt that manifests itself in actual physical pain. Who is she, and what has she done? Her past remains clouded. The Darklands have burned away any memories she had of it.
But when she meets Leighton, she recognizes him instantly- and with that recognition, the pain only worsens.
Their pasts are tangled.
Their fates are tied.
If he can't forgive what she has done,
She cannot save his life.

A Song of Faithless Shadows
Gwyneth had always felt connected to her faith, a higher power presiding over her. That faith had shaken that devastating day those years ago, the day that went on to haunt her every nightmare for years to come. She's still trying to come back from it, to not only restore her faith in life and love, but her faith in herself. The sanctity of her spirit- she prayed for resolve. Every punch was a prayer. Every mile was a hymn. Until her knuckles bled and her knees gave. Azriel had been surrounded by darkness his whole life, a poison on his world, on his being. He exercised restraint in his every waking moment, banishing that darkness within himself. Some guessed of the strain it put on him, but no one knew the extent of it, how deep his scars ran. It was better this way, he was sure. He had always thought that if there were a higher power- which he wholly doubted- such deities must loathe him to have burdened him such darkness. He hadn't much faith in the gods anyway, much less faith that he could sway their opinion on him. But Gwyneth and Azriel did have one thing in common: the quiet fight within themselves. They only knew one way: to go about it alone, couldn't fathom letting another in. But there's a magic in finding someone who is your equal but opposite, something transforming. And frankly, Gwyneth and Azriel could both use a little magic. All characters owned by SJM in the ACOTAR series. Story takes place after the events of ACOSF. Aligns with the events in my other fic: A Storm of Flames and Deceit. I haven't finished Crescent City, so this story takes place outside of the events of those books as well.

Mischief in Starling [Stackson]
Stiles is done. He can't take being in Beacon Hills anymore. At every turn, new chaos awaits. On every street corner he is reminded of all the pain, all the loss he had to go through. He feels guilty whenever he sees the hurt on Scott's face and he knows, he's thinking of Allison. They say none of it was his fault, but Stiles can see the truth in their eyes. They blame him almost as much as he blames himself. It's tearing him apart and every minute longer in that godforsaken town weighs heavier on his heart. Come the next pack meeting and he knows, he is done. Deciding that Jackson had the right idea in going as far away as possible, he packs his things and moves to a cute little apartment in Starling City. It's not a carefree town by any meens, but here, an entirely different group of people is there to protect the town. For once, it's not Stiles' job to save anyone and at last he can breathe again. That is until a mysterious force starts to bubble up inside him and he finds himself confronted with a whole new understanding of himself. One attack on his life later and he finds himself face to face with blue eyes that he never thought he'd see again. Of course he would never admit that even covered by a mask, only the eyes visible, Stiles would know that face anywhere. Hello, pups. This story won't actually have a big bad. It's mostly fluff and relationships. The focus is solely on Stackson and their evolution. Of course there will be some fighting, considering we're following a group of vigilantes. Other than that we mostly have some emotional conflict. I hope you enjoy :) G'night, pups.Complete

Umbraphile || Azriel x oc
"You think I give a shit about everyone else in Prythian if it's your life on the line?" Azriel snapped. Eclipse's eyes watered and she looked away in frustration. Azriel reached forward and grabbed her chin forcing her to look at him. Eclipse's breath caught in her throat at the intensity of his stare. "If it's you or Prythian, I will light the fucking fires myself and burn it all to the ground." "Az-" she breathed softly staring into his hazel eyes. "No. I waited 500 years for this, for you, and if you think that I will ever be okay with spending one Cauldron damned second of this life without you from this point forward, then you are sorely mistaken." He stared deeply into her eyes. "If you.. Mother.... If you die Eclipse there's no fucking point to anything. Mate or not you are the light of my life. Nothing makes sense without you, it's all just blood and shadow without you and I can't, I won't go back to that. So if you go, then I'm following right behind." What if, hear me out, but what if Rhysand's sister hadn't been the youngest of his blood relations. What if, before her death she had been married off to the heir to the Day Court? What if they had a daughter? Born somewhere in between the day and night, a bridge between the courts. Powers from both. An affinity to control the light and dark, an intuition so keen she had never been wrong a day in her life, an affinity for magic and spells so strong she could rival her father, known by many names. The Warrior Princess, the Candle in the Dark, Daydreamer, Eclipse; Spell Weaver.
✔️What Arrow? (fandom book)
She woke up in an abandoned building, no memories at all. Not her name, not if she had any family, not where she came from or where she was. She had major injuries though, something was making her bleed out. Her shirt was soaked in blood. She knew one thing, a man's voice saying, "what are you, Jackal?" She found a bow and arrows beside her. She grabbed them and ran, only to find herself in an even worse situation. She was in an ally, a man with a gun to her head, asking her for everything she had on her. Soon after, she found she knew how to fight. The man on the ground, barely alive asking one last question. "Who are you?" She turned to him and smiled. "Name's Jackal." Then jumped up to the roof of a building, continuing her search for someone who could help her.
