The world is rotting from the inside out. Wars rage at the borders, children starve in the streets, and the rich hide behind high walls, doing nothing but watching everyone suffer.
Dr. Ivory Vance thought she had the answer: The Tether Spindle. A machine that could rewrite human nature, erase greed, cruelty and pain forever, turning the world into something safe and good.
But the council called her mad. They rejected her work, banned her research, and hid a dark secret: they don't want to save the world. They want to own it. Their plan? Let others build the machine with their own time and money... then steal it once it's finished, and use it to control everyone like puppets.
What they didn't expect was Ysa Thorne. A girl with nothing but a brilliant mind and a burning desire to fix what's broken. Together with her best friend Liam, and the others who will join their cause, they will build it in secret, fight against the most powerful people in the world, and risk everything to change fate.
But can they finish their dream before the council takes everything away? Or will everything they love burn into ashes?

Everything Is Just Fine
The only things I want to focus on this year are making new friends, starting fresh, and doing my school work. That means no dating and no complications... But there's Abel Ryan, the drummer for Poisonous Winter, and Tobias Washington, my charming and goofy roommate. Neither of them are a part of my plan, and I'm confused about my feelings for both of them. On top of all that, apparently, I'm adopted, and no one bothered to tell me. What the hell am I supposed to do with this information? Things are about to get very complicated.

I know you better
Sometimes people are a lot different then you think. The first minute Lance steps into his new school he's warned about Keith Kogane. They say he's like the devil, the meanest guy you will ever meet. You better stay away from him otherwise you could get on his bad side, and then your life is over. Lance isn't the guy to judge people just because people talk about that person. But they seem to be right, as a moment later Keith throws a freshman on the ground for speaking to him. That is a sign for Lance to never even look at this guy. But that isn't that easy as it sounds, cause even if he is a bully he is kind of good looking. Wait good looking? he's a guy! Mami always warned him to never hang out with bad people. Otherwise she will probably beat the light out of his eyes, so no way he's going to approach a guy like that. Till he sees this Keith in a whole different light. A way almost nobody sees him. _________ My first real klance fanfic There is going to be a little bit Spanish in here, but I can't speak Spanish. So It's probably going to be crappy Spanish. I'm sorry for that I will try to make it as accurate as I possibly can! :3 uploading this to a03 as well! As well as my other volron fanfic.Complete

The Whistlewill
[BL, it's BL guys, they are so gay] Wyatt Anderson is a detective. Or, at least, he wants to be. At the moment it feels like all he does is write reports while waiting for his first big case to break. When young children start going missing from his small town, Wyatt thinks he's finally found the golden opportunity he's been waiting for. But the case may not be as straightforward as he believes. As Wyatt's investigation leads him to a strange and eerie forest, a chance encounter with a woodland spirit will thrust Wyatt into a mystery far greater and more mystical than he could have ever dreamed. Now working against the clock, Wyatt must depend on his newfound friends, a handsome gatekeeper, and his own intuition to save not just a missing child, but also himself from a terrible fate. ************************************************************************************** "What... are you?" Wyatt asked, scrambling backwards on his hands and feet like some sort of ungainly crab. "I am the Whistlewill." "The Whist-what?" "The Whistlewill," the tiny man repeated, slowly and loudly. "Are you trying to say Whippoorwill?" Wyatt asked, completely baffled. "Like the bird?" "I am not." "Well, what kind of name is Whistlewill?" "That's not my name," the tiny man said. "You haven't asked for my name, which was a tad rude to be perfectly honest. You asked what I was, and I've told you. I am the Whistlewill." "What the fu-okay, fine," Wyatt said, aggravation mounting. "What's your name, then?" "My name is Twee," the creature that was apparently a Whistlewill said, sweeping his acorn hat off his head with a flourish and bowing deeply. "At your service. And you are-?" "Wyatt." "A pleasure to meet you, Wyatt," the Whistlewill said with a devilish grin that didn't quite match his gentle tone or mellow personality. "I think you and I will have quite a bit of fun together."

Ener Mavis never had grand ambitions. Growing up in the outskirts of the city, he only wanted a simple life-one where he could avoid unnecessary struggles. But fate has other plans. Through an unexpected opportunity, he finds himself with a chance to enter the most prestigious academy for mages. Surrounded by talented individuals with years of training, Ener quickly realizes that raw power alone won't be enough to keep up. If he wants to survive in this world of magic, competition, and hidden dangers, he'll need to rely on his intelligence, adaptability, and an unconventional way of using magic. What starts as a way to secure a better future soon turns into something much bigger. As Ener advances, he begins to uncover mysteries buried in history, whispers of forgotten knowledge, and forces lurking beyond what most mages understand. The more he learns, the more he realizes-this world is far more complex than he ever imagined.

Love and Mischief (Little Gens 2)
This story follows Josh and Sophie as they navigate life as new parents while traveling and figuring things out together. It will also feature Max as he tries to balance high school and stay out of trouble. Of course, we all know Max is basically a magnet for chaos, so that does not always go the way he hopes. I'll include the name in each chapter title so you'll know whether the chapter focuses on Josh and Sophie or Max going in. For the cover, I tried to find something that represented the mischief side of the story, and that was the best image I could find that worked without showing a face. I do not want to give too much away, but I hope you enjoy this story as much as I enjoy writing it for you. This story was also helped along by AllenisawriternowDuh, and I wanted to give credit for that as well. There will be some sex scenes, violence, drugs, and alcohol, so I wanted to give that warning now. Some of the other Little Gens characters will appear as well, though they will not have major recurring roles. Our beloved Paw Patrol characters will still be mentioned too. I may also add the occasional picture here and there when needed.Complete
