MATILDA
------
eldest daughter - the first-born female child of parents, who often carries a disproportionate amount of responsibility due to a heightened sense of accountability within the family
Matilda Shelby was a part of a world she didn't understand. The death and the loss that followed Shelbys haunted her too, and so she found escapes, but even she couldn't escape the curse of being a Shelby. Especially as the daughter of Tommy Shelby.
Family is power.
Family is pain.
The binds holding them together were becoming far too fragile.

Nights Become Days (Completed)
Maddox's work keeps her busy, too busy for an actual relationship. This has never bothered her since no one has managed to hold her interest... at least not until now. A Rafael Barba/original female character story. I originally posted it on AO3 under a different title (one I've never really liked) and am rewriting it as I post it here. It started from an idea I was kind of playing with and has an unconventional start, but as I kept writing I really started to like the development of the relationship, so much so, that it become the first story I actually finished. There's smut... lots of smut, fluffy bits too. I've fudged Barba's age a bit because I wanted Maddox to be in her mid twenties and a fifteen year age gap was as large as I was willing to go. It has thirty five chapters and I will work on rewriting them in between new chapters for my other stories. They need a lot of work. The first four were posted at once because that's the point I decided I liked the story enough to originally post it.Complete

The person who holds the group together when missions go wrong and emotions run high. She understands Jace in ways few people do, and somewhere between childhood training sessions and dangerous demon hunts, their friendship grew into something more. But everything changes the night a mundane girl stumbles into the Shadow World.

The team she left behind isn't sure whether to trust her, fear her, or pretend she was never gone at all. And she's not sure she deserves the second chance. As new cases blur the line between right and wrong, the secrets that put her behind bars begin to surface-threatening her freedom, her future, and the fragile trust she's trying to rebuild.

But her excitement is short-lived-because her new captain is Bobby Nash, the father who hasn't recognized her since a fire took half their family seven years ago. Bobby's memory of Danielle was erased by trauma, and in his grief, he rebuilt his life-with a new wife, new stepkids, and no space for the daughter he forgot. Now, forced to work beside him, Danielle struggles to balance professionalism with heartbreak, hiding her true identity and the scars of her past. Enter Evan "Buck" Buckley-Bobby's golden boy and fiercely loyal protégé. Buck instantly feels threatened by Danielle's presence, and the two clash with intense chemistry and simmering resentment. Watching from the sidelines is Eddie Diaz, Buck's best friend and a devoted single dad. Eddie sees through Danielle's walls, and their connection builds slowly-until one kiss changes everything. As emotions spiral and lines blur, Danielle finds herself torn between two men-and two futures. What starts as rivalry, resentment, and unresolved grief slowly evolves into something unexpected: love, healing, and the possibility of a family made from the ashes. In the end, maybe love isn't a choice. Maybe it's a collision. And maybe the only way forward is together. Book cover and synopsis are generated by ChatGPT.

Just a couple of little Yellowstone fanfics that I've come up with whilst I've been watching the show recently. Rules: - I am not taking requests. Please do not put any in the comments. - No spoilers. I've not finished the show yet, and I've not seen any of the spinoffs yet, either, so let's not start spoiling things for me, please. - Be nice. Not everything you read is going to be to your taste. That doesn't give you the right to leave horrible comments.
