After moving to Italy from Miami-Dade County, Lilia Moretti is known as the sister of the seven Moretti brothers. She didn't know they existed, but she was ready to get away from her own battles; abuse, betrayal, and the aching loneliness of her abusive mother. But while her brothers fight to protect the family name and uphold the Mafia, they needed to protect Lilia from all the dangers that come with it. Lilia Moretti doesn't speak of what happens at home. She can't. So she swims-every morning, every evening-into the waves that never ask her questions. Her seven brothers call her Sorellina, their little sister, fragile and sweet. But they don't see what the ocean sees: a girl slowly unraveling beneath the surface. In the stillness of the shore and the silence of the sea, Lilia holds onto her last breath of freedom. But as truths begin to rise like tides, the waves may carry more than just secrets-they might bring the Moretti family to its knees. Seven brothers. One sister. A love they couldn't speak-and a pain they never saw coming.

Yeah... so I may have killed off most of the cast. Oops. The remaining survivors after the Second War against Gaia include Percy, Will, Clarisse, Grover, Travis and Connor Stoll, Rachel, Chiron, Sally, and a few random campers. Everyone else... not so lucky. This story follows Percy as one of the last demigods left alive after the war. Unable to handle staying in New York surrounded by memories, she moves to Blüdhaven to try and escape everything that happened. Unfortunately, monsters tend to follow Percy Jackson wherever she goes. Will comes with her to help her settle into her new apartment (PLATONIC DUO ONLY - sibling energy, not a ship), and Percy slowly becomes closer with the remaining survivors while struggling with grief, PTSD, and everything the war left behind. She eventually starts defending Blüdhaven at night, but throwing herself into danger to cope may not be the healthiest choice. Also: Percy is probably overpowered. I barely know DC lore outside Google, edits, and other fics. Jason is alive in this universe and NOT evil. Dick Grayson will appear eventually ;) This fic is probably fueled by sleep deprivation and emotional damage. All Percy Jackson characters belong to Rick Riordan and DC characters belong to DC Comics. I only own the plot changes for this story. Content Warnings Major Character Death Grief/Mourning PTSD & Trauma Panic Attacks Depression Eating Disorder References Self-Harm References Suicidal Thoughts/Implications Violence & Gore References Mental Health Themes Heavy Language/Cursing Please let me know if I should tag anything else.

Draco Malfoy is done with his year in prison and no magic parole, but he choses not to go back to the wizarding world. He still uses magic, but he works at a muggle bank, drives an auto and has a fully furnished muggle home. Then one day... a Belgian Malinois chases a deer across the road... right in front of Draco's car. Draco saves him and takes him home. Hiliarity ensues with Harry trying to escape and annoy Draco Malfoy. But Draco isn't dumb. He starts to realize that his dog... is way too smart for a dog.

Cassandra Clover has always existed in the quiet spaces between introversion and extroversion-soft-spoken, thoughtful, her rare beauty inherited from dark-skinned parents who raised her to lead with kindness. She's the friend everyone wants but few truly know, someone who overthinks every word yet still gives herself away too freely. She's learned to protect her vulnerabilities, building walls just high enough to feel safe. Then she meets Cardan Wilson. There's something about him that stops her cold. His eyes that he covers with a hood, which she never should have seen-deep and swirling, as if crafted with deliberate care-seem to hold secrets she desperately wants to uncover. He hides beneath hoods and silence, his voice a low, peculiar cadence that makes her want to confess things she's never told anyone. He's magnetic in his mystery, unsettling in his distance, and she can't look away. Cassie has never felt this pull before-this need to understand someone who seems determined to remain unknown. Cardan is a puzzle she didn't ask for but can't ignore, and the more she reaches for him, the more she realizes he might be reaching back. In a story about two people who see something in each other the world has overlooked, Cassie will learn that sometimes the most dangerous thing you can do is let someone in-and sometimes, it's the only way to truly live.

Now obsessed and unwilling to lose him again, Pakarn refuses to let Pichit run away-pulling him into a chaotic, emotional, and dangerously sweet connection that could change both their lives forever. #TeeteePor #03-08-2026

In the world where a mysterious, government-funded organization hides anomalies from the civilians, one of their subjects manages to escape. After losing the Foundation's pursuit she accidentally falls into a deeper hole, as another organization attempts to hunt her down. In a world where she doesn't trust anyone aside from her fellow SCPs, who aren't there to save her, she meets someone, who manages to save her from certain death. Knowing humanity's worst side, she is reluctant to accept the help, but is forced to due to the circumstances. Will she manage to trust again? Or is her past going to drag her down? The SCP Foundation had a containment breach, and one of their SCPs managed to escape. Of course, similar things happened in the past multiple times, and O5s were familiar with situations like this. What made this matter an emergency though, was the fact that the escaped object is a keter, and a rather sadistic one. They have to use everything they can to try and find her before she kills anyone. Very quickly however, they realize that finding her is going to take longer than initially expected... New chapters are published on Sundays according to the CET timezone. Constructive criticism and comments are highly appreciated. Warning! As of the moment of writing this, the story contains graphic depictions of violence, which are severe enough to classify this story as "mature". Depending on which ending I choose for this story, more warnings may apply in the future which will further solidify the "for adults" classification.

Knowing his best friend, Matthew, and Matthew's older brother, Khaotung, for over 5 years, First had never let anyone know how much he truly felt for Khaotung. The older's nonchalance, but the hint of care was like drugs to First. And in no while, he realised he was getting addicted. From going to Matthew's room and laughing for hours with his best friend to going to 'meet' his best friend just to look for any trace of the older everywhere. No one was supposed to know about it, at least not until he couldn't keep it inside anymore. And when that day came, he might have made one of the worst (or best) mistakes of his life...

At fifteen... she was light. Niharika Rathore was the kind of girl who made rooms softer just by entering them. A sunshine soul wrapped in innocence. She laughed too easily, trusted too quickly, and loved her mother more than anything in the world. Her eyes-almond-shaped, deep, observant-held warmth. Her smile could melt silence. Chubby cheeks like cotton candy... a face everyone remembered. But some stories don't stay soft. Because in one night... everything changed. The man her mother trusted... the man who was supposed to become her stepfather... became the reason her world cracked open. Nothing loud. Nothing spoken. Just a line crossed that should have never been crossed. And after that night... Niharika was never the same. --- At seventeen... she is still alive. But the sunshine is gone. Her smile doesn't reach her eyes anymore. Her gaze avoids people, like the world itself became unsafe. Quiet. Careful. Guarded. She no longer trusts light. She only trusts shadows. Then fate turns again. Her mother slips into a coma. And suddenly... there is no place left for her. A maternal grandfather she barely knows sends her away-far from everything she called home. But before she can leave... another truth arrives like a storm. A father she never truly knew. A name whispered in fear. A mafia king. And he wants her back. Not as a guest. Not as a choice. As his daughter. --- But Niharika has already learned one thing the hard way: Men break things. Even the ones who are supposed to protect you. Now she is taken into a world she never imagined- A house filled with power... silence... and eight brothers who see her as an outsider. No women. No softness. No familiarity. Only rules. Distance. Watchful eyes. And a girl who is terrified of men... being forced to live surrounded by them.

For as long as he can remember, Harry Potter has felt like something in his mind isn't right. Sometimes he wakes up in unfamiliar places, with memories that don't seem his own and a feeling of having been someone else. Other times, he hears voices in his head, as if different versions of himself are trying to take control. But after years of abuse at the Dursleys', he learned that it's best to remain silent. When he arrives at Hogwarts, the episodes worsen. He loses time, his mood swings for no apparent reason, and acts in ways he doesn't understand. However, with the help of his new friends, Neville, Ron, and Hermione, he begins to put the pieces together and discovers the truth: his mind is not a single entity, but a jigsaw puzzle of fragmented identities, created to endure the pain of his childhood. As he struggles to understand himself, Harry discovers unexpected allies. Draco Malfoy, his supposed enemy, begins to see him differently, and what begins as a rivalry soon turns into something deeper. And in Potions professor Severus Snape, she finds someone who, despite his harshness, is able to understand her suffering more than she could have ever imagined. Word count so far: 41,115

Juliette Grimes was halfway through her MCAT when the world started ending. One phone call from home. One sentence from Shane Walsh. Your dad's been shot. That was all it took for Juliette to abandon Harvard, throw herself into her black Chevy Blazer, and drive 1,080 miles toward King County, Georgia. Toward her mother. Toward Carl. Toward the hospital bed where Rick Grimes was supposed to be waiting. But by the time Juliette makes it home, the dead are walking, the roads are burning, and the world she knew is already gone. Three months later, she finds her family alive on a farm that is anything but safe. Rick is trying to hold onto his humanity. Lori is trying to keep her children breathing. Carl is growing up too fast. Shane is unraveling. And Juliette? Juliette came home with blood under her nails, steel at her hip, a gun her father gave her, and ghosts she refuses to name. She is not the girl who left for Boston. She is sharper now. Colder when she has to be. Armed with medical training, a black Blazer full of supplies, a katana, a compound bow, and a survival instinct brutal enough to scare even herself, Juliette will do whatever it takes to keep her family alive. Walkers are not the only monsters anymore. And in a world where mercy can look like murder, love can become a weakness, and old rules die faster than the people clinging to them, Juliette Grimes has to decide what kind of woman she is willing to become. Because Rick Grimes woke up to the apocalypse. His daughter had to survive it awake. __________________________________________ New updates every week, sometimes twice a week if my brain cooperates with me.
