When Gustavo, an angel who manages the solar system, arrives with news of a celestial staffing shortage, their tense reunion threatens to disturb more than just the coffee cups. Now he has three months to either find her replacement or convince her to stay - if he can first master the art of walking on solid ground without making the drinks vibrate.

The immortality paradox
Mara Vale has always believed that there's more to life than just surviving-and now she's about to prove it. After creating the groundbreaking Toro Gate, a device that opens portals across dimensions, she stumbles upon a shocking discovery: a way to achieve immortality by resonating in a zero-energy field. But there's a catch-this process strips away everything that makes you you and leaves you in a void of nothingness. As Mara races against time to solve the paradox of immortality, she must confront the consequences of her choices. Can she overcome the personal cost of eternal life, or will the temptation of limitless power spiral into a chaotic struggle for humanity itself? The deeper she digs, the more she realizes that immortality isn't just a gift-it's a curse that could unravel the very fabric of existence. In a world where nothing is what it seems, can Mara find a way to preserve both life and soul? Or will her journey become the key to her undoing?Complete
The Weight of Grief
It's almost funny. How grief sneaks up on you. One second, you're fine; you're coping well and then it hits you like a bullet, tearing right through your heart, almost killing you on the spot. Grief is a monster that lies dormant in the darkest quarters of your mind, growing stronger and stronger until you can't fight anymore. Until you can't breathe. Peter was fractured. The monster having grown too big, and without any support left to hold him up, the world of drugs dug its claws into him. And it was slowly killing him, like a sickly sweet poison that dulled the pain while quietly feeding on his soul. He was powerless to stop it. He was too tired to stop it. Tony was doing pretty good. Aside from having died, he was doing pretty good. Resurrected from the dead, check. Thanos dead, check. Wife and daughter thriving, check. He'd never expected to get his life back, that was for sure. He was thankful for the second chance. Unfortunately, Tony was quick to discover that the kid had all but lost his own life. It felt like a knife slowly twisting into his chest every time he saw the kid: in agony. Now Tony wasn't exactly the poster-child for a good emotional support figure, but he wasn't about to sit back and let this continue. No matter how hard the kid fought him, no matter how much resistance he was met with, Tony would help the kid. Still, he couldn't help the fear that laced his blood. Tony couldn't help but question whether he would be able to save Peter from the weight of grief. **NO Starker** Triggers Warnings: Substance Use/Abuse Depressive and/or Suicidal Thoughts/Mentions Rape Threats/Mentions Descriptive Blood/Minimal Gore Some Self-Harm Coarse Language Mental Illness (various) This is a heavier story, so please don't read if you're not comfortable with any of the above triggers.

Saving Bucky-Rewrite
⚠️18+ only. Under 18, DNI⚠️ Bucky POV: I escaped Hydra 1 year ago, and have been on the run from S.H.E.I.L.D. ever since. I've managed to fly under the radar this long, stayed to myself. It was easier this way. I have done so much damage, hurt too many people already. I couldn't risk it. I was ok being alone, at least I thought I was. Until I met her. Olivia POV: I hated this town. I've lived here 5 years now, and all I wanted to do was escape. I moved here for a man. First mistake. Will never do that again. I have been working full time in a small, dark dive bar. I had a few friends, but I work so much so I mainly socialize with my regulars that come into the bar. I was numb to my life basically. Then he walked in. I do not own any of the characters that I use from Marvel or and if the images. This story takes place around the time of Captain America Civil War, so it does not follow the actual story line.Complete
Enemies Dressed in White
When Damien dies in a car crash saving his daughter, he expects peace - or at least clarity. Instead, he wakes up in a moral ambiguity, corrupted afterlife where Heaven feels more like a broken corporation than a divine paradise. Assigned to a dorm, given a welcome coffee at Angelbucks, and guided by the enigmatic Phoenix, Damien quickly realizes something is wrong. Heaven is running on autopilot - a corrupted divine system that judges souls like files in a cosmic database. Those who don't fit the mold? Erased. Forgotten. As Damien uncovers the cracks in the so-called "perfect realm," he meets a cast of outcasted angels, demons, and forgotten entities. Together, they begin to question the very fabric of justice, and divinity. Now Damien must choose: follow the rules of a flawed system, or help rewrite the meaning of salvation - even if it means making enemies dressed in white.
The Things He Didn't Say
During the events of Civil War, you're just an intern - working under Stark Industries, sorting files, fetching coffee, completely invisible to most of the Avengers. But not to him. Not to Bucky. He shouldn't even look at you. You're soft. Kind. Whole. And he's a man being hunted, blamed, broken. But there's something about the way you offer him a quiet smile in the hallway, the way you bring extra sugar for his coffee without asking, the way you never flinch when his metal hand brushes too close. You don't see what the world sees when they look at him. And maybe that's why it hurts more. He wants you. Needy, aching, starving for something like comfort, but convinced he doesn't deserve it. Doesn't deserve you. And still, in quiet moments, the walls between you start to burn.Complete
