(A Stranger Things Fanfiction)
1983. Hawkins, Indiana was supposed to be normal.
Normal kids.
Normal schools.
Normal secrets.
Until a girl escaped from Hawkins National Laboratory.
Jackie doesn't know where she came from. She doesn't know who her family is, why she has abilities she can't control, or why people in white coats spent her entire life calling her 009 instead of her name.
All she knows is one thing:
She's never going back.
When seventeen-year-old James Carter sees a barefoot girl in a hospital gown standing in the rain, his first instinct isn't to help her.
It's to run.
But in a town where lights flicker before something bad happens... running only gets you so far.
As Jackie's path crosses with Mike, Dustin, Lucas, Will, and the rest of Hawkins, secrets begin unraveling, monsters start appearing, and James realizes the girl he never wanted to know might be the one person who changes everything.
Slow burn. 80s nostalgia. Lab experiments. Found family. Mystery. Romance.

Turns Out Curse Immunity Is Awesome
Nagashima Yuki finally transmigrated. More precisely, she reincarnated, straight into the deadly world of Jujutsu Kaisen. The moment she realized where she was, Yuki was thrilled. "Yes! I even got an awesome cursed technique! Time to join the protagonist squad!" All she had to do now was wait for recruitment. After all, wasn't a certain irresponsible white-haired teacher supposed to show up and bring talented kids to Jujutsu High? So she waited. And waited. And waited. "Why hasn't that white-haired teacher come to pick me up yet?! Hurry up and take me to Jujutsu High already!" But instead of an invitation... She attracted the attention of curse users. Now she's being hunted. Constantly. "Where are you, Gojo Satoru?! If Tokyo Jujutsu High won't take me, what about Kyoto?! Somebody recruit me already, please!!" When her life finally becomes impossible to maintain thanks to endless attacks, Yuki reaches a devastating conclusion: "This JJK production crew is way too dangerous! I quit the protagonist team!" And just before she walks into the darkness to fight it on her own terms, she glances back one last time at the school she once dreamed of joining. With tears in her eyes, she shouts toward the sky- "Gojo Satoru! Do you even know what you've lost?!" *** Gojo Satoru was born the strongest. In his entire life, only two things ever slipped through his fingers because he wasn't strong enough. One was the man who nearly killed him - Toji Fushiguro. The other was the mysterious person who appeared after his revival and took Toji away. Sorcerers inherit techniques. That person could dismantle them. Sorcerers attack with cursed energy. That person was immune. Sorcerers stand for justice. That person simply turned around, and walked into the darkness. Her name was Nagashima Yuki. And in the eyes of the jujutsu world, she was someone who stood completely opposite to sorcerers.Complete

Enemy To Lover
The story will thrive on the clash between Taehyung's Seoul-bred arrogance and Jungkook's Busan-bred sass. While their families represent two different kinds of power-Money vs. Law-the two "brats" will find themselves at odds before the "slow burn" romance begins to ignite.

Dr. Frank Langdon and Dr. Audrey Simmons have worked side by side in the emergency room for years within the hospital of Pittsburgh Trauma Centre. They know each other's coffee orders, cover each other's shifts, and trust each other with every patient that comes through the doors. Somewhere between late-night shifts, shared exhaustion, and quiet conversations in empty hallways, their friendship begins to change into something deeper. Neither of them wants to risk the one person they could always rely on - but the longer they ignore it, the harder it becomes to pretend they're just friends.

Forward | Rewind to Tomorrow [Michael Jackson]
"It causes your immune system to turn against you," I explained gently. The color terrifyingly drained from his face as he stared at his knuckles. "I have a spot," he whispered, his voice scraping like glass. "Right here." He let out a strangled noise as the stadium footage buffered. "Riley!" he shrieked, covering his burning face while peering through his fingers at his future self. "Those pants leave absolutely nothing to the imagination!" He went so unnaturally still I thought his heart had stopped beating. His charcoal-stained fingers curled into tight fists. "Fifty," he whispered, scanning the fatal summary on the glowing screen. "I am... I am gone at fifty." What if the only way to save your future was to completely abandon your past? In 1982, Michael Jackson is suffocating. Trapped behind his family's compound gates and drowning under industry pressure, the rising star just wants a life of peace and normalcy. The universe answers-violently ripping him from his timeline and dropping him onto the bedroom rug of Riley, a freelance graphic designer in the year 2025. Stranded forty-three years in the future, Michael must face a world that already knows his tragic history. But Riley fiercely refuses to let that history repeat. She offers him the anonymous, ordinary life he always craved, rebuilding his shattered confidence brick by brick and teaching him the radical concept of self-love. More importantly, she arms him with the ultimate weapon: the brutal truth. She gives him the exact names of the snakes hiding in his 1982 backyard, the upcoming betrayals, and the devastating tragedies he is destined to face. When the universe inevitably pulls him back, Michael is no longer the timid pop star terrified of his shadow. He is a king preparing to claim his throne, knowing exactly how to rewrite music history and what it takes to survive. But armed with the future, changing his fate might cost him the one person who taught him how to live.
SEDUCED IN SIXTEEN ||TAEKOOK|| ONGOING
Taehyung is sixteen-wide-eyed and far too curious for his own good. Every time his father's colleague enters the room, his chest flutters, and he tells himself it's just a harmless crush. But Jungkook, twenty-seven, with calm eyes that seemed to see everything except him, noticed absolutely nothing. To Jungkook, Taehyung is just a kid. That's all. But to Taehyung, Jungkook is everything he shouldn't want. Some disasters don't come with warnings. They come with a smile, a stolen glance...and a secret that was never meant to be shared. And in the end, only one question remains.... was it really worth it? ☆Top- Jeon Jungkook ☆Bottom- Kim Taehyung #AgeGap #HeavyAngst #DarkEmotionalThemes #Slowburn #ForbiddenLove Do not report or repost.
