A Relic of the Future

by Runic_Rhapsody

A vessel marred in the hand of the potter.The war had ended, and they had all returned. But not him. He'd been left behind. What remained was a piece for which there was no longer a place. His reforging came not from the hard-won peace. No. Instead, he found his hope in the past. While excavating an ancient chamber, he became the one unearthed. Cast into the eve of the First Wizarding War, a relic of the future that would never be.

Non-Human Player

by Doctah_WAAwee

What does it mean to be human? Is it the way we think? The bodies we inhabit? The morals we live by? This question has echoed since the first spoken word — and still it churns, shifting with us as time moves forward. But what happens when something far beyond human asks that same question? A being so vast, so unbound by our logic that it cannot truly understand what it means to be human — even if it has been one before. Could it live as we do? Could it choose to stay human, to remain shackled, even when offered a taste of the infinite it truly is? The answer has always been NO. But what if that certainty isn’t as absolute as it seems? Can fate be rewritten? Can even inevitability change? One curious scientist — who has glimpsed the infinite and survived — is ready to help answer that question. Together, they begin an experiment. It all begins with a connection — one that might unravel everything.

Recovery (Sway With Me)

by CookieTails

"You ok?" Keith asks, stepping slowly into the room. Grabbing the nearest chair, he slides it beside Lance, hands over the bouquet, then drops into it backward like a degenerate, arms folded over the back. Lance nods, albeit a little sleepy, a little too zoned out for comfort. "Pretty..." A soft laugh slips out of Keith before he asks, "Doctors got you on the good stuff, huh?"Lance develops appendicitis. Keith is a very patient boyfriend.

Demon to Some, Angel to You

by Monokoi

She didn't quite understand. “What is this place?”“One of memory,” he answered.“The second layer of the underworld. A place where stories sit. Not quite alive. Not quite dead. But forever told to their protagonists.”She glanced around at the demons again. None had moved, but she could feel them... waiting, listening.“What kind of stories?”“The kind people leave behind when they’re trying to forget, thus, this is their punishment.”ORAs the daughter of famous kpop stars Rumi and Jinu, five year old Areum has one hell of a story to share once she awakens from her suspiciously realistic dream. A dream that has her foraging in a strange underworld and with a friendly demon guide who bears a striking resemblance to her father.But is it really all in her head? And are her parents really not as unshakable as she believes them to be?
