A death on campus; a creepy new professor; an antique penny. And also Logan, Dick, Mac, and more! Set in the 3rd season of Veronica Mars, between episodes two and three, this story is faithful to the setting and plots of early season three. I wrote this story as a writing exercise, so it's not the type of stuff that I usually do. I consider this to be a draft, so I would love to receive any feedback that you have to offer.

About me: I've published one novel, Breaking Young Divinities (http://goo.gl/ExlpMU). I'm currently working on a Sci-Fi trilogy. I would love it if you follow me on twitter: @rick_talbot

The Scent of Roses || Coriolanus Snow by sunlightxing

You're in your senior year at the Academy when Doctor Gaul decides alongside her gamemakers that the mentorship program should be reinstated. You're tasked with making the Capitol fall in love with your tribute during the 15th Annual Hunger Games. After your tribute claims victory, as well as captures the hearts of the Capitol and your own, Professor Gaul calls you into her office. She's seen your promise as a student and invites you to take on an internship underneath her. The catch is you just work closely with Coriolanus Snow, one of her newest apprentice gamemakers. Something about him upon first glance forms a deep pit inside your stomach; there's something off about that man. While the intention to put you alongside him was to help advance your studies, it's clear he has something else in mind. He wasn't lying when he said, "I'll teach you everything." Set 5 years after the events in "The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes." Story is for mature audiences only. *WARNING: SMUT* *WARNING: Coriolanus Snow is a manipulative man!* DISCLAIMER: I do not own these characters, outside of OC's, nor anything to do with the Hunger Games universe. I will try my best to follow the original plot but there's a lot of gaps that need to be filled.

To Be by AlexiaRichardson

Death could be so unpredictable, am I right? You see I never really pictured how I'll die. My life was okay, or as okay as okay could be for me. Haunted from my past. Always pretending. Except with Adrian. My Adrian. With him I can be happy. But then everything changed. And now I'm dying, slow and painful. Now, what led to all this? I'll tell you only if you're daring enough to read my story. Well, are you? *#197 in young love 12/26/19* *#222 in young love 5/10/20* *#270 in young love 12/3/20* *#55 in yafiction 3/29/21 *#18 in yafiction 4/01/21 *#16 in yafiction 1/24/22 *#44 in yafiction 11/11/22 *#25 in yafiction 3/13/23

The Day We Met (Veronica Mars Fanfiction) by WritinSinsNTragedies

Veronica is sent to Neptune to spend the summer with the mother she never knew. After being invited to a party on the beach, she meets Logan, the handsome local teen who has a difficult relationship with his ex. They just click and she finds herself having a very different summer fling than she expected. ------------------------------------------------ Hello there! I hope you are ready for a new Veronica Mars AU. In this one, Veronica never lived in Neptune, she grew up in New York. And Keith Mars isn't a cop, his job is a mystery. Mainly because I couldn't decide what type of job he would do, so it became a little bit of a thing as part of the story. Anyway, this a LoVe story, because there is no other option. Few important details, this is meant to be the summer before Junior Year. Lilly is alive and well. You will learn everything you need as we go. Rating is for future sexual content. It's gonna get steamy, don't worry.

Whatever It Takes (A Veronica Mars Fanfiction) by WritinSinsNTragedies

Veronica had seen countless victims; men, women, children. Some of them had been found in the most horrific states imaginable; some of them still haunted her dreams. But they were strangers, people she had never known - or in this case hated. But no one deserved to suffer like this. Not even Shelly Pomroy. Eight women have been raped and strangled, their bodies dumped on beaches along the California coast. Veronica is sent back to her home town of Neptune to find the person responsible. It has been nine years since she left Neptune, leaving a trail of destruction in her wake. With her return, Veronica has every intention of avoiding anyone that is connected to her old life - even her own father. But when her investigation leads her straight back to Logan Echolls she knows it won't be as easy as pretending they don't exist. ---------- As the summary states, my story follows Veronica as an agent in the FBI. Now I know there is a lot of argument about Veronica's character and how she would never really work at the FBI because she doesn't follow the rules, but in my mind, a lot can happen in nine years and for my story, she has learned some hard lessons. This is a 'LoVe' story because there is no other option for these two but each other. I will put a warning here that this story will contain graphic depictions of rape. I will leave a note at the top of chapters that contain those parts so that you do have a warning, but this is just an overall warning in case you are uncomfortable with that. But enough about that, enjoy the ride.

18+| COMPLETE✔️ "Ali..." He sighed, his breath tickling the skin of Alison's neck. He tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, admiring her beauty, how youthful she was. He then took his hand off her, suddenly aware of the line he had crossed. "This is wrong." He sighed, not looking at Alison. She could feel it in his heaving chest that he was battling his consciousness and his desire. She was fighting the same feelings. They both tried to resist, to rationalize, to not give into temptation. He was her teacher for goodness' sake, and if that wasn't enough, he was so much older than her. It was wrong in so many ways, and yet they couldn't seem to step away. "It feels right." Alison said boldly. She moved her lips to his, on her tiptoes. Dr Damon suddenly gripped her forearms, his face becoming tense and serious. "After weeks of annoying me, being a class clown, disturbing my lessons, embarrassing me in front of my colleagues, disrespecting me, you think you can just waltz into my office dressed like this, taunt me like this... You're a bad student Alison Bardot, you're a very bad girl." _____ It's said that a great teacher can shape and guide you. That couldn't be truer for Alison.

Ours- Yandere!Logicality, Book 3 (Sanders Sides) by SanderShipper

Eighteen years ago, Logan and Patton Croft's lives were... well, they weren't good. Within the span of a few months, the summer of XX28, Patton killed ten people and lost his brother after his ex-boyfriend went and stabbed him in the neck. Logan found out, and then Patton was told of all that Logan had done and who he himself had murdered back in XX18. Of course, now? That ex-boyfriend was long dead, a knife plunged into his gut, Patton only being left with a bad shoulder and half-fluency in American Sign Language to deal with his Deaf ear. That was all eighteen years ago. The couple had a son now, and their past was truly in the past. But when their soon-to-be seventeen year old son learns about a certain Remy Cafe- a serial killer that lived in their town eighteen years ago- in school, how long is it until everything else that happened before he was born is revealed to him? And what happens when he meets the ghost that had been on his mind one foggy night on the side of the road? But... no, that wouldn't happen. Ghosts aren't real, and Joe Croft was meant to remain in the shadows about his parent's screwed up life forever. ... Well, that last part wouldn't be a lie if his long dead uncle had never gotten involved- but let's just say this uncle may not be exactly who you think he is... •~~~~• BOOK ONE - Mine BOOK TWO - Yours [ BOOK THREE - Ours ] BOOK 3.5 - Theirs TWs: ⚠️Character death, near character death, mentions of character death, background divorce, ghosts, blood, gore, mild sexual humor/references, crying, betrayal, deadnaming of a transgender character, transphobia, homophobia, cursing, caps-locked words, food⚠️ BEGAN: February 14th, 2021 ENDED: June 13th, 2021 This book contains sixty-two chapters.

Book 3: Flesh And Bone "You said you had my back." Cristine felt her scalp tingle, neck and facial muscles pulled tight. This conflicting feelings of helplessness and being cornered annoying her greatly. Everything Troy said made her angry and if it was before she wouldn't care about any of this. She'd stay as far away from him as possible and watch it all crash and burn before escaping with her family. But they had a mutual respect for one another now. That's what Cristine liked to believe until Troy smashed it like some cheap vase in barely a few days. Cristine felt betrayed and sickened by his actions. She should have been used to people disappointing her, but this time hurt her more than usual and Cristine didn't understand why. "Was that a lie?" Troy asked genuinely. "No," Cristine felt something tickle at the base of her throat and her eyes stung. "But I'm not going to pretend that what you did is okay. It'll never be okay Troy. Do you get that?" WARNING: Mature and triggering themes will be present in this story. It's The Walking Dead universe, so that's to be expected. So if you're easily triggered, please don't read this.
