(Or the Prospective Postlude.)
Dear reader,
The phrase "no news is good news" refers to a lack of developments in an ongoing situation or problem being perceived better than a negative development. It is usually used as a half-hearted proffering of optimism when a situation looks particularly bleak, but in this case, the saying is correct. If it comes from the tragic files of the Baudelaire orphans, no news is absolutely good news-which makes the story that you are about to read very bad news indeed.
After many years of the world being quiet here, new documents in the Baudelaire paper trail have emerged, so I have emerged to finish the solemn duty I started long ago. Due to the Daily Punctilio's censorship and my enemies keeping an ear to the ground (a phrase which here means "standing on the manhole cover under which I am hiding for my life"), I am forced to publish my findings on an online site dedicated to sharing Verifiably Fictional Documents. The entire agonizing tale of sadness, lies, calculus, the unknown, nautical ships, romantic ships, hugs, chocolate cake, and obscure literary references will be brought to light as it is compiled, so that the orphans may finally have peace-and everyone may finally leave me alone.
You, however, do not have to wait until the end to leave this story alone-in fact, it is encouraged to start now. You, dear reader,do not have to subject yourselves to such horror, and I desperately urge you to find better reading material-as the Baudelaire orphans venture on one last journey. My name is Lemony Snicket, and I will finish what I started.

Have you wondered what happened after the Baudelaires left that Island? This is a story of what happened in their lives. If you are curious, then take a look into the dark dark pages of the story. But I must remind you to "Look Away" for this is not going to be a "and they all lived happily ever after" story for the Baudelaire children.

The Truth and What Remains: An Adrienette story
I actually got inspiration for this story from another brilliant writer but I decided to focus on Marinette and Adrien's children for this story: Louis, Hugo, and Emma. This story will not contain any mention of the miraculouses or Hawkmoth or any of that, but it is more of a realistic story leaning towards themes of abandonment, loneliness, love that doesn't include the love square, and emotional moments. Let me get to the story, this will be written in mostly Louis's or third person view, mostly likely third person. Summary: I asked this question constantly: Where's Dad? Do I even have one? My mom always said I did, but liked to avoid the question. However, something was nagging at me, I knew nothing about my father and I wanted him in my life. I've always been jealous of other people, ever since I was little. My mom and my siblings Hugo and Emma always filled the hole in my heart, but I still felt like something was missing. And I'm gonna find that crucial something that was missing. #36 out of 506 stories in #Marinettedupaincheng and #2 in #masterfu, even though master fu isn't mentioned in this story yet.... which is kinda odd. I'm proud that the ratings made it this high, thank you for reading this new adult twist on the Miraculous fandom. Ratings (NEW EDIT): #10 in #gabrielagreste #58 in #marinettedupaincheng out of 576 stories #4 in #emmaagresteComplete
A series of unfortunate events; book the fifteenth happily never after
Dear Reader, You are presumably looking at the description of this ebook, or The End of The End of The End. The End of The End of The End is the best place to begin Happily Never After because if you read Happily Never After from the beginning of Happily Never After to the end of the end of Happily Never After, you will arrive at the end of your rope. This book most certainly is not the last in A Series Of Unfortunate Events, although I do wish I could somehow end the Baudelaires strike of bad luck. Even if you have somehow managed to brave the previous 14 volumes, you probably will not be able to survive through a turn of events both fortunate and unfortunate and I can assure you that you will not be able to avoid the nagging of tears at your eyes. It is my strict duty to deliver to you the last few tales of the Baudelaire children but there is nothing in this world that should stop you from returning this book to the place that you found it and I strongly advise you to look away, before its too late. Kindest Regards Beatrice SnicketComplete

Tomorrow's Blues
~"You don't- you don't need me." I stared in shock. This was the first shred of emotion he'd shown since he started avoiding me, and I had no idea how to respond. What was I supposed to say to something like that? So I let myself be honest, and I told him exactly how I felt. "But I do." I almost choked on my words. "I do need you. I can't talk to anybody else. I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan. Just 17 years old, she lost her parents in a boating accident and now she must live with her best friend, her best friend's parents and her best friend's brother, Joseph. She struggles through her grief as well as dealing with the mysterious but obnoxious Joseph, and it soon comes to light that he isn't the only one around her keeping secrets. Living under the same roof, tensions arise, and Liliana begins to discover that a perfect family may not be so perfect after all." If you like a good old slowburn, enemies (ish) to lovers, bonding over tragic backstories type beat then this story is for you, I promise :) #1 in #bestfriendsbrother (didn't note the exact date - some time in January 2021) #1 in #dealing with death (11/04/21) amazing cover by @sixty6ix !!Complete
