After training at the Cardiff Academy, Niall Grant gets the chance to prove himself at a fire station in the countryside. Even though he would have preferred to go to Pontypandy, he soon realizes that it won't be boring in this small town either.
After not having the best start, he soon discovers that there is a secret surrounding his new station officer and the prevailing "rivalry" with the fire station in the neighboring town that is more than confusing, but also makes him curious as to what might be behind it .
Will Niall manage to prove himself there and gain a foothold or will his curiosity lead him into unexpected difficulties?

I have no rights to images, the series or its characters. I write solely for the joy of it. Any resemblance of names or character traits to real-life people regarding my own characters is not desired.

Updates are to be expected rather irregularly, as I don't quite know where this story is going from time to time.

Through A Different Lens {Marina/Maya & Carina} by didsome1saymarina
35 parts Complete Mature
With her newborn nephew being brought into the picture, and her parental skills being tested. Will Maya be able to supply a homey feel for the infant, or will she get caught up in her self doubt. Will threads realign, or will they sizzle beyond the flame? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ~Picture Me In A Polaroid~ #Book 1- Nonentity Probie #Book 2- Through A Different Lens ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 〖TS〗 "What about a fire pole? You like the fire pole right" Maya exhaustingly let out as she held a temperamental, crying Finn on her hip, facing the shiny gold fire pole. The baby's face red from the loud wails and high pitch cries, his hand gripped around the fabric of Maya's top. "You're not hungry, you don't need changing and you're not tired, what could you possibly need-" As the list of non possibilities spilled out of Maya's mouth, Finn took it upon himself to tell Maya what was wrong by spilling his own substance out of his mouth. Her mouth opened wide in shock as the warmth of the spit-up soaked into the fabric of her shoulder. She stood frozen as the baby's face reoriented itself, his tongue pushing against his inner cheek as he faced Maya with the most oblivious face. His wails and reddened cheeks cooling down as he sat upon Maya's hip, watching as her face shadowed from shock to annoyed acceptance. "Now I know why Dean put a towel on his shoulder" She muffled out between her teeth. Honestly she was just glad he stopped crying. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✰pr*✰ ✰Story Completed✰ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ☞Key Terms: Station 19, New Family, Infant, Greys Anatomy, Marina, Fanfiction, Angst, Drama, Ups&Downs, Firefighting, Doctor, LGBTQIA+
A Song of Faithless Shadows by yourlocalsag
93 parts Complete Mature
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.

Formerly called 'Withered' Highest Ranking as of 5/18/2018: #5 in Matureaudience; 12/7/2018: #3 in ied I gulped as his hand cupped my jaw, "Tell me River. Are you scared of me?" He asked and I looked up at his eyes. I didn't have to ponder over the matter long. "I don't know." I said softly. Daimen frowned and studied me for a while, "Just wondering, because you seem to love pissing me off. And most people don't. So I guess you need some figuring out to do." ********* Daimen and River were both seniors at the same high school, they took some of the same classes, walked the same halls, live in fair distance from each other, but they couldn't have been more different. When high school was over River and Daimen became ghosts to each other but then years later fate decides to bring them back together. River Sparrow hates confrontation. She's jumpy, but tries to see the bright side of situations. She's quiet, soft spoken, the "teacher's pet," and keeps to herself a lot. She's a volunteer at the local animal shelter and loves one dog in particular the most. Daimen Princeston would fight in a heartbeat. He's strong, intimidating, and pretty much has people running for the hills at the very aspect of him getting angry. His devil-may-care attitude swirls around him and no one wants to get on his bad side. Of course River is afraid of him, and she has a good right to be. But when River starts to learn more of the young man everyone fears she starts to see him in a new way. After some time feelings grow stronger and she hopes she's not fallen for a murderer. And if she has, who is she to deny him the love he so desperately needs?
