France, 1930.
A series of mysterious murders has thrown the country into fear, leaving the police with more questions than answers.
Seeking a fresh start after a painful divorce, former British detective Lucifer Morningstar travels to France to reconnect with his young daughter while returning to investigative work. In search of an affordable place to stay, he ends up sharing a secluded house on the edge of the forest with the last person he ever expected to meet.
Alastor-a charming, soft-spoken radio host whose ever-present smile hides more than anyone could imagine.
As the investigation deepens, secrets begin to surface, trust becomes increasingly fragile, and two lives become entangled in ways neither of them could have predicted.
Some mysteries are meant to be solved.
Others are destined to change the people chasing them.

Perfect Screw Ups | Quackbur
Wilbur struggled his whole life with overwhelming expectations. He felt as though he would never be good enough, he felt like a screw up. When screw up meets screw up, can they fix each other? Or will they just become a dumpster fire of trauma? This is my attempt at writing first person, I strongly prefer writing third person stories. But I thought it'd be fun to give this a try! This is a quackbur story that is pretty angsty. I'll put TW/CW when necessary. ⚠️DISCLAIMER⚠️ This story contains: -Swearing -Constant use of alcohol -Abuse -S/h -suggested sex -make out scenes -su!c!deComplete

idiots in love
[Previously known as 'I Like You'!!] *𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀: #𝟭 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙭𝙠𝙮𝙡𝙚, #1 𝙩𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙠𝙭𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙜, #1 𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙜𝙭𝙩𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙠, #1 𝙗𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨, #2 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙢𝙖𝙧𝙨𝙝* ★彡 artist: tuckerenthusiast on tumblr ★彡 When being friends for so long, chances of becoming more than that decrease. Tweek Tweak, Kyle Broflovski, and Butters Stotch knew that 'fact' well. What are the chances they even like the same gender? What if they already have someone else in mind? What if confessing ruins everything? Questions like these always refrained them from making a move. But because it's South park, life always did a 180 at some point and the unpredictable was thrown at the coffee lover, jew, and short blonde's faces. The unpredictable wasn't such a bad thing after all and things turned out better than they expected. { Creek, Style, and Bunny fanfic } *strong language, mature themes, and offensive words mentioned like in the show*
