The Redemption of Stingy Jack
|| 2X FEATURED || Stingy Jack is back, and all soon changes when he's found unconscious at the door step of two college students. ***** After a wild Halloween party, Maud and her drunken roommate Lyn stumble home, only to find an unconscious man with a pumpkin face at their doorstep. Maud, a lover of all things spooky and bizarre, is intrigued and decides to bring the stranger inside. What starts as a curious attempt to question his eerily realistic costume turns into a shocking revelation: this isn't just any man-he's the infamous folklore figure, Stingy Jack. As Maud grapples with the reality of hosting a legendary trickster, Lyn remains skeptical, worried about the dangers of having such a monstrous-looking, yet seemingly harmless, being in their home. But Maud's fascination grows, and so does her determination to uncover Jack's mysterious return. Haunted by voices in his head, Jack is desperate for answers of his own. Why is he back, and what fate awaits him? As he searches for the truth, Jack faces a life-altering choice: change his ways and defy his cursed past, or allow history to repeat itself, living up to the name that doomed him.

We are not the same. (JackFrost X reader)
"Whenever I'm feeling lonely I just look at the moon, because Someone, somewhere, is looking right at it too" Y/N skellington. The spirit of Halloween who gives you a thrill, a frisson of excitement, who is Also known as the pumpkin queen, Samhain? Or sometimes even Bloody Mary. History had repeated itself, causing the man in the moon to appoint a new guardian, the spirit of Halloween herself. However Y/N has no interest in gaining more believers, seeing as everyone who does believe in her has the wrong idea of her. Being feared is not fun and she'd rather not be seen. However, maybe someone who had once been in her position (in a way) can give her a different perspective and hopefully encourage Y/N to keep fighting for what her title should mean. Also Jack is flirting with Y/N the whole time. -the nightmare before Christmas is ever so slightly referenced in this as you can already tell. I do not own it nor do I own ROTG.
