    Summary

    New York is easy. Not safe, not comforting, just easy. Easy in the way Jeongin can drift through smoke-filled rooms loud with music and money, unnamed and untouched. Easy in the way he can direct his hunger where he wants it without consequence.

    It stays that way until it doesn’t.

    Minho arrives with ash-colored eyes and a face that won’t hold still long enough to be captured, offering rules instead of comfort. Sharp guidance threaded through intimacy, possession disguised as kindness, smiles that gleam like unsheathed blades when the light hits just right.

    What begins as an encounter unravels into a slow, tightening bargain, one Jeongin can’t fully name even as it starts to shape the way he wants, the way he takes, the way he survives. And at the center of it all is something older, steeped in darkness and deadly obsession: a private auction, and a portrait with eyes that follow you and paint that looks wrong, waiting to be claimed.

    Summary

    A sharp eye can catch life’s repetition, but a cautious one knows how to break the pattern.

    Amongst a world still fractured by the scars of one of its deadliest wars, glimmers of rehabilitation were beginning to surface. Twenty-five years later, society plunged back into that same cycle they’ve always known.

    It took bravery to recover. It took courage to face it again.

    Élisabeth found herself swept among the wreckage of the second wave, still drowning as the memory of the first swell pulled her under. Navigating through heavy waters, shining beneath a light of cruel familiarity. Protecting what she loved never came at such a high cost.

    Everybody has secrets. Some are better kept hidden, and a slip of the façade could be fatal. There’s always a price to pay. Regardless of how far down they go, how deep the ache splinters from the heart, they always find a way to reveal themselves.

    Facing her fears kept her alive, accepting her truth kept her safe. Erasing the board of guilt has never been easy.

    Summary

    Part 1: Heavens Light. 1920’s – 1930’s Murder Media AU. Vincent Whittman is an up-and-coming movie director, dreaming the big dreams and the big names in lights – with the change of cinema and technology, he swears to get his first ever ‘talkie’ in Hollywood.
    Shame the producers handsome but talentless spawn is a requirement for him to have in his film or he can kiss his funding goodbye.

    A search for a solution comes in the form of a handsome man with the song of an angel on his cupid bow lips in New Orleans – Alastor is struggling in getting the radio to take him seriously to host, so when the fast-talking man suggests that he becomes the voice of the movie star instead.

    Well, it might be a hoot.

    If feelings are caught along the way, let us hope it does not end in pieces on the cutting floor.

    Summary

    George, a British immigrant living in a small Texan town, leads a stable, boring life. He wakes up, goes to his job at the local diner, then goes back home to his mother. Nothing ever changes, nothing new or important ever happens.

    Nothing, that is, until he catches a young man trying to steal a car.

    The would-be thief calls himself Dream, and in exchange for not reporting him, he gives George things he's never had before: Excitement. Companionship. A purpose.

    But as they fall deeper into each other, the danger only grows. Because their brand of excitement is a risky kind of high — and they aren't the only ones who might get burned before it's over.

    Summary

    As the eldest, Seonghwa couldn't protest his parents' demands any longer without giving them a strong reason as to why he should be allowed to hold onto his bachelor status for good, seeing as he was already in his late twenties and had shown no interest in pursuing women.

    If only he could confess that he had known from a young age that the clacking of a pair of dress shoes managed to turn his head faster than the delicate sound of T-strap heels....

    Summary

    Another 1930s AU fic from me, who's surprised?
    _

    Vincent didn't know why his mother told him to stay away from the boy that liked to bite other boys. Vincent thought the lanky twerp was interesting, and his biting habit reminded him a lot of sharks. Vincent loves sharks.

    Alastor knew perfectly well why he was meant to stay away from the white boy that kept following him around. It was too risky, but whatever he to scare him never worked. The kid was just too goddamn weird.

    He tried relentlessly, but Vincent didn't leave his side. Not for the next decade, and likely not until death do them part.

    __

    OR : A fic about Vox and Alastor meeting in the 1930s as kids and growing up together. A lot of time skips. Overtime, they learn what it is to love, hurt, and live. As much as Alastor corrupts Vox, Vox also does his fair share of corrupting. This one doesn't really include the other Hazbin characters though. It's mainly just Vox and Alastor, and OCs.

    Summary

    “And of course, you’re totally aware of where you’re heading now, hmm?” That jerk was walking along with him.

    Summary

    The year is 1938. A German officer is sent to a remote monastery in Tibet to oversee a classified experiment. His orders are simple: observe, report, remain detached.

    But the subject he’s assigned to, a young woman with no past and eyes that seem to remember everything, makes silence impossible.

    Through his journal, duty begins to fracture into obsession. The line between witness and participant blurs. And in the stillness of the mountains, where science and faith have both lost their shape, one forbidden gaze threatens to unravel them both.

    A psychological slow burn set against the isolation of pre-war Tibet, where control becomes a kind of worship, and love a dangerous form of remembering.

    Summary

    An OC x canon AU set in a chaotic human world, where ambition outweighs morality.

    Two lives collide by chance and gradually intertwine through rivalry, obsession, and a shared hunger for power. What begins as petty conflict evolves into a partnership so unbreakable that even violence fails to tear it apart.

    Opposites in nature yet dangerously compatible, they rise together through fame, influence, and hard-earned prosperity. Each step forward strengthens their bond — and sharpens the consequences.

    Because even the almighty are destined to fall.
