That Razor's Edge

by Fionn_Sgeul

Valerie's world was clear-cut and straightforward. Then came the night when everything she thought she knew came crashing down on her head … along with a few tons of pulverised building.That was the night that she became the thing she feared … and discovered that maybe it wasn't a thing to be so frightened of.And also, maybe it was finally, finally time to admit that Phantom wasn't such a bad guy after all.

Being Not-Dead

by Fionn_Sgeul

Valerie Gray has become the very thing that she's always hated -- or, well, half. She's a half-ghost, a liminal spirit, and it has turned her entire world upside-down.Phantom is Danny, and Danny is Phantom. Ghosts aren't the merciless, evil beings she thought they were, and weirdest of all, it's possible to exist in a state between ghost and human. What she thought was the clear black and white of good and evil has become a smeared palette of grey, and she has realised that she's way farther down the darker end than she is okay with being.Fortunately, Danny and his friends are turning out to be braver, kinder, and more forgiving that she'd ever given them credit for. Enough to not just forgive, but to take in someone like her. For the first time in her life, she has a chance at real, proper, true friends.Now if she could just get her head straightened out enough to not spend her days teetering on the edge of explosion, life might possibly become awesome. ...Except, of course, that she still hasn't told her dad...

YOUR BEST AMERICAN BOY

by hatsuna

“What unites both generations [OF ASIAN AMERICANS], Eng and Han suggest, is a kind of linguistic lack, a missing vocabulary—a paucity of stories that they might tell themselves about where they are going, and what it would mean to feel whole.” Kiyoomi Sakusa has spent the last seventeen years believing he is boring. He has never met anyone inclined to challenge this belief.

Conclave (2024)

a sacred conversation in the dark

by myhereditament

–I’m grateful you are here with me. Not that… I’m happy you are stuck here, with me, but that I’m not alone. Sorry, I’m being terribly selfish right now. Forgive me.–Ah, there is nothing to forgive. I feel the same. It would have been a lonely waiting game without you here. Much duller, too.–Then let us gladly keep each other company.–Yes, let's do so. Should we pray together?–….–…Thomas?–Why don’t you tell me a story instead, Vincent. I think I would feel near Him, either way.(An explosion traps Thomas and Vincent together. In the dark, as they await for a rescue, they share a conversation.)

ENHYPEN (Band)

And there youll always

by darlingriki

“Do you ever get lost, Riki?” he asked, unfazed by the way a stranger was touching him so casually, staring up at Riki with those eyes. They were practically glittering—like tiny galaxies existed in his irises, endless and ever-expanding. All the time, his mind supplied, as he slowly shook his head, everything about this scene starting to throw him for a loop. He couldn’t shake his nerves, or the overwhelming deja vu washing over him, as tiny-Sunoo looked up at him with nothing but hope and the promise of adventure in his big eyes, his palms full of dandelion petals.  (Or: Sunoo will always lead Riki back home, one way or another, the best way he knows how—and Riki will always follow.)
