    She loved him loudly. He loved her quietly-only when it was convenient. Leah believed two years of love meant security, a future, a place she could finally call hers. Yet, every time it mattered, he chose someone else. A best friend. A familiar comfort. A silence that hurts more than betrayal. This is a story about emotional neglect, unspoken loyalties, and the slow realization that love without priority is a form of loss. It asks a difficult question: How long can you stay where you are never fully chosen?

    Jujutsu kaisen Modulo fanfic Modulo(Yujixreader) fanfic Caution (Mild to heavy spoilers) In 2086, the world no longer fears the name of curses. But it hasn't forgotten him. After defeating Ryomen Sukuna and escaping the execution that once hung over his head, Yuji Itadori chose to keep fighting-living on as a Jujutsu sorcerer long after the battles were supposed to end. He was meant to grow old. He never did. For 64 years, Yuji has remained unchanged-cursed with a body that refuses to age, forced to watch everyone he loved disappear one by one. Time moved forward. He didn't. And somewhere along the way, the boy who saved people became a man who no longer lets anyone get close. Until you return. Unsealed after decades lost to time, you awaken in a future you don't recognize-where curses have evolved, the past has faded into myth, and one familiar presence lingers just out of reach. Yuji knows you're alive. But he doesn't come to you. Because he remembers what it means to lose you. And he's not sure he can survive it again. But as new dangers rise and fate pulls you back into his orbit, distance begins to crumble-and so do the walls he spent decades building. Because some promises outlive time. And some love... endures even a curse that was never meant to be broken. ____ Jujutsu kaisen does not belong to me, any pictures used here all belongs to their rightful owners.

    Maeve Raines has seen golden strings since her teenage years-thin, luminous threads tied to people's pinkies, binding them through choice, emotion, and consequence. Friendship. Betrayal. Belief. Obsession. Love. Everyone has them. Some have many. Having only one is rare. Having none is impossible. Except Maeve cannot see her own. Now in her late twenties, she lives a life that demands silence and observation. Her secret stays hidden, pressed between unanswered questions and the letters she writes to the Fates-quiet confessions meant for powers she isn't sure are listening. Over the years, she has learned every shade of gold that exists and memorized their meanings. There is nothing left about the strings that should surprise her. To the world, she is someone else entirely. She goes by Juno-a name chosen, not given. A name she wears like armor. Under that name, she drifts. Watches. Learns how lives knot and unravel. Until she meets Theo Mercer. Her neighbor is gentle, reserved, and marked by something she has never encountered before. He has no visible strings. Not one. The absence unsettles her more than any bond ever has-because she knows what every shade should mean, and yet he fits none of them. Theo knows nothing of fate or golden threads-only that being near Juno feels fragile, like something he shouldn't expect to keep. What unfolds between them is not loud or dramatic. It is slow. Measured. Built from shared glances, half-confessions, and the quiet comfort of being understood without explanation. And for the first time, Maeve feels something she cannot categorize-a pull, a burn around her own pinkie whenever she turns away from him. Still unable to see her string, she prays-desperately-that if it exists, it will not be the worst kind. The color of love that never gets to stay. To the Fates is a quiet, tragic exploration of destiny misunderstood, love interrupted, and the cost of seeing what others cannot.

    Born beneath the same tide, Tsireya was cherished by the sea-while her twin sister Gianna was feared by it. Marked by her pale skin and white hair, Gianna grows up ignored and rejected by the Metkayina, seen as an omen rather than a child. When she befriends Lo'ak Sully, the two form a bond built on shared neglect and quiet understanding. But love becomes forbidden, jealousy fractures families, and superstition turns cruel. Exile, war, and sacrifice follow. Disclaimer I do not own Avatar, Avatar: The Way of Water, or any of the canon characters featured in this story.

    ⚠️WIP + COVER TBA [Placeholder] 16 Contestants are trapped and [TBA ILL ADD LATER] There will never be a part two nor an epilogue, you read that right, I'm not working on another one like this because it's the end, only one season so yeah I don't own bfdi or Danganronpa, they belong to their respective owners ---- Playlist to listen: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6HOFOLhggoEDyVieU76tN5?si=nJ-7sQVRRnirkMFpBgzCpw&pi=yi4PowokQKidu ---- And guys...I have a confession to make... I don't know much about danganronpa other than it's just a murder mystery killing game sadly, all I know that people are trapped, some kill eachother for escape and try not to get caught, and people suffer im sorry πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’” But I remember they get memory wiped I think and the mastermind just controls the game along with the bear too? also people get to know eachother with those hangouts I think (I also thought that they might know eachother prior to the game)??? Idk I was invested to the game and I see people making these things called "the wheel decides their fate" and I want to do that too. I don't know how long my attention span would be since the game would probably take a week to finish if it was me (the trials are 3 hours long I don't have patience to sit and wait for that) Apology coming soon I think I might be a fake fan sadly =[[[ (I basically watch interactions, executions and only the parts I like I guess, but also did watch the anime specifically v1 I think, I really like the second trial)

    After the sudden death of her father, Anya is forced to leave everything behind and return to the small town she once called home-a place filled with memories she isn't ready to face. Every street, every corner, and every familiar face feels like a reminder of the life she lost. But nothing prepares her for the moment she comes face-to-face with Ethan-her childhood best friend. The boy she once shared everything with now lives just down the road, goes to her school, and, somehow, even has the same dog they used to adore. It's as if time has folded in on itself, picking up right where they left off... except everything has changed. As Anya struggles to navigate grief, old memories begin to resurface-some comforting, others painful. Being back forces her to confront not only the loss of her father, but the person she used to be. And with Ethan by her side once more, she must decide whether to hold onto the past or find the courage to move forward. In a story about love, loss, and rediscovery, Anya learns that sometimes going back is the only way to heal-and that the people we leave behind might be the ones who help us find ourselves again.

    In a bright world of puzzles, magic, and viewer-guided adventures, a determined 13-year-old girl, Bo, and her gentle dragon, Dezadore, have always been the perfect team. With every journey, they rely on clues, courage, and a little help from those watching to find their way-until the very end, when it's finally his turn to shine. But lately... that moment feels smaller than it used to. As the adventures go on, Dezadore begins to wonder if he's truly needed-or just part of the routine. And when those feelings grow too heavy to ignore, he quietly steps away, hoping to find where he belongs. Back at the castle, the girl who never thought she'd feel alone suddenly does. The games aren't the same, the puzzles feel emptier, and no matter how many times she calls his name... there's no answer. Somewhere beyond the familiar paths, a quiet girl named Nightshade finds a lost dragon with a heavy heart. Instead of rushing him, she simply stays-offering him something he didn't realize he needed: understanding. As two worlds gently begin to shift, this story unfolds into a tender journey about friendship, feeling unseen, and discovering that sometimes, being needed starts with being understood. Disclaimer: This story is inspired by a pre-existing show that has since ended. I do not own the original series, characters, or concept-this is a fan-made continuation/reimagining created for fun and storytelling purposes only.

    One pair of boots. Two introverts. One borrowed afternoon in Seoul. Max is a pragmatic designer with only twenty-four hours left in South Korea and a life built on rigid, unbreakable rules. Kros is a soft-spoken observer with a steady presence and an intense, unblinking gaze that seems to peel back her carefully maintained exterior. When a casual swipe brings them to the banks of the Han River, they find something rarer than a tourist's souvenir: a perfect, silent alignment. From the rhythmic strike of combat boots on Seoul's pavement to the heavy weight of their contrasting realities, they navigate a city built for couples while knowing their time is already running out. In a world of fleeting connections, what happens when something real appears at exactly the wrong time, and neither of them is willing to break the life they've built to follow it?
