    She had her life calculated to the last decimal. SHE DELA CRUZ: top of her class, architect of her future, engineer of her heart. Emotions were variables to be controlled. Love was a risk to be assessed. Then he died. And the equation broke. MARCUS RAMOS - the misunderstood boy from the wrong side of perception, dressed in the armor of a "bad boy" to hide a soul too vast for this world - did not leave. He became a condition of her reality. A ghost visible only to her. Not a shadow to fear, but a truth she could no longer ignore. This is not a ghost story. This is an autopsy of a misunderstanding. A film ready novel where every silence is a line of dialogue, every glance is a revolution, and the most haunting love affair begins after the last heartbeat. Witness a love that defies time, a regret that rebuilds a soul, and the terrifying beauty of being truly seen by the one person you never took the time to see back. Prepare for absolute cinema.

    Ari MarizΓ‘n first died when she was seven years old. Rather than surrendering to the darkness, she struck a bargain with Death himself and took on the mantle of "Nightingale." Years later, she operates as a highly skilled agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., infiltrating and executing assignments without fail. Working in the shadows, Ari balances her existence between the world of the living and the realm of the dead, shackled to the god of Death himself and cursed with a purpose life could never offer her. But as tensions rise and war breaks out, Ari is thrust into a conflict that demands her to confront the light she has long avoided. Joined by a newly formed team of misfit superheroes, she must relearn to navigate the line between life and death and make an agonizing choice about how far she is willing to go to protect the living. Of all the questions that arise, Ari knows one thing for certain. Nothing will ever be the same again.

    Wei Wuxian is dead. But what happened to him all those years? The world of the living couldn't summon even a fraction of Wei Wuxian's soul. Even a well-known and distinguished Cultivator found not even a sliver of Wei Wuxian's existence, even as his love for him burned brighter than the Heavens and continues to do so. Thirteen years. Nothing. That was because Wei Wuxian found himself in a realm that could not be reached by the living. A place of red lanterns and ruthless autonomy - where ghosts and monstrosities gambled vigorously, a sanctuary without Heaven's judgement, ruled by power, and the absolute protection of its unseen Lord in striking red robes. And when Wei Wuxian's methods and simply his existence cause trouble the moment he enters this city, the Lord of this metropolis must intervene. This story is what Wei Wuxian went through when he died, and what he endured. His realization of that distinguished Cultivator's true feelings for him, and what price he must pay in order to return to the land of the living... and to him. Only the Lord of Ghost City knows that price. And will he give it to him? **Please read the Author's Note chapter**

    Eldric Holloway should have stayed dead. Four years ago, his soul was dragged before the Grim Reaper - a towering, bone‑cold presence who offered him a single impossible bargain: return to the living and serve Death... or vanish forever. Eldric chose life, but the price has been stalking him ever since. Now he walks the cemetery at night, guiding lost spirits through the fog with only Ghost - a black cat carrying a dead man's soul - to keep him grounded. But something darker has begun clinging to Eldric's home, a black mist that pulses with hunger. And Grim himself appears without warning, leaving behind a chill that sinks into Eldric's bones. "Find the souls hiding from me," Grim commands. Refuse, and Eldric's borrowed life ends. But the dead aren't the only ones drawn to him. A young woman named Klara arrives at his door, led by her ghostly grandmother and carrying a strange familiarity Eldric can't explain. Klara sees spirits too - and the darkness stalking Eldric seems to notice her. As the veil thins and the fog turns hostile, Eldric begins to understand the truth behind his resurrection: Grim didn't bring him back out of mercy. He brought him back because something worse is coming. And it wants the boy who escaped death. Some deals save you. Some damn you. Eldric's did both.

    I felt like writing an Au of Jujutsu Kaisen. All of Jujutsu Kaisen's plot/characters go to Gege Akatami. I also don't read the manga, so my knowledge doesn't extend beyond the anime. So, if things don't add up or some rules have been changed, ignore it. I'm just trying to have fun here. Also, some ships with my OCs, so if you don't want to see your fav characters shipped with one of my OCs, this is not the place for you. Again, I'm just here to have fun.
