Adonis, a mortal with a penchant for divine delights (and the occasional clumsy pursuit of mountain tea), finds himself utterly captivated by Nyphielle, a harpy of... unique charms.  His attempts at wooing her, however, are less than graceful. From awkward offers of help to disastrous attempts at romance, Adonis's every move seems to lead to hilarious misunderstandings and near-death experiences.  Will he manage to win Nyphielle's affections, or will his clumsy courtship send him plummeting off the cliffs of Mount Pindos?  This comedic romp through Greek mythology explores the trials and tribulations of love, the perils of misplaced enthusiasm, and the surprising difficulties of harpy courtship.

Nessie Out of Water by stackikus
7 parts Complete
Awkward situations seem to seek out Nessie, a post-college secretary at a portable toilet rental company, like stalkers of a boy-band sensation. She has dealt with unstable roommates and an ever-present toaster salesman, but this one takes the cake. Though her humdrum days of eating cereal alone at dinner have convinced Nessie that she has lost her purpose, the tides turn when she stumbles upon a mysterious sword. The sword transports Nessie to the parallel universe of Spoons, a land of castles and kingdoms, but more importantly: adventure. During this quest, Nessie must outwit a kidnapping matchmaker, face the quips of an incredibly sarcastic companion, befriend a pink-haired hippie, and deal with romantic stirrings brought on by her partner-in-crime, the toaster salesman. There will be daring escapes, secrets unturned, inspirational pondering, and pointed questions on the quality of her cooking as Nessie comes to understand that God's plan and purpose, though sometimes different than expected, are always best.

I started writing this story mostly because I wanted Sass to finally have a girlfriend for goodness sake. Rose Harth ends up dead on the property of Woodstone Mansion, not quite realizing it at first and especially not especially coming to terms with it. She now has to deal with all of these new fellow ghosts, who are all quite strange. One of them she especially has personal beef with, Sasappis. She would be quite happy to avoid him for the rest of her ghostly life, but he just has to like the same chair near the window for sitting in the sun, doesn't he? This story is mostly a comedy but there will also be some fluffy romance (no smut). As I'm writing, I'm realizing probably gonna be a bit of a slow burn and also enemies to lovers.
