one-shot

THE MOTHER OF WOLVES This is a story so detestable, so regrettable, that the powers that be have completely severed it from the Tapestry. It is a memory from another, whose actions made the world a worse place. A revelation of what awaits at the end of a dark road. No paths exist from this...

"Due to the state of emergency, all lines are busy now; please proceed to the nearest shelter-" Click. His hand moved on it's own, returning the public phone to its cradle. Looking to his left, down the road, he locked his eyes with hers. As their gazes met, her eyes widened in surprise. A...

Brockton Bay Central Bank was partially occupied by customers, and also by a group of parahuman criminals robbing it. Panacea was there too, considering if joining a group of criminals was a better choice than staying with her family and her wonderful sister. "Bug." Tattletale spoke to her...

I've been writing more oneshots lately, mostly because I've gotten into fic exchanges. My longer works: The Gods Have Horns — Homestuck AU, coauthored with @Shadow-Wasser. There is Nothing to Fear — Harry Potter AU. Tom Riddle was sorted into Gryffindor. Oneshot Index: that's how it is on...

Illyrio set down a black briefcase next to his would be assassin. The man was still masked, as Illyrio cared little for his Identity. Illyrio's "Friends" abroad would have an easy enough time confirming his suspicions. "Smmp! Mlml thk!" Illyrio ignored the man, and opening the case. Inside...

So this is basically a crossover between two fics, one I published in AO3 and one I haven't published at all and abandoned. Since the other fic I wanted to post from it's AO3 home will require some more thought before I know if it falls into the rules or not, I thought I'd start of my forum...

You can hear It banging on the door. Crying and begging, screaming your name. The same thing it's been doing for the past hour. “Please… Please Let me in. It's so cold out here…” It sobbed, but you know it isn’t her. You take a shaky sip from the bottle of wine you keep in your desk. It’s an...

Author's Preface: The status quo is a staple of comicbook universes for reasons of accessibility and authorial preference. Outside of Events, or highly advertised series, nobody wants to open a comic and wonder what the hell is going on. The USA has to be the USA, Europe must be Europe. The...

Author's note: I will be blunt, I'm not satisfied at all with this one. As with Emulation, this was originally written for a Discord server's writing contest with a specific prompt and a limit of 2k words. However, it quickly became apparent that the prompt didn't inspire me as much as I...

He awoke with a start. The first thing he could ascertain was that he was lying on his back on the ground. His senses slowly woke up one by one, his sense of touch being the first to tell him that, whatever he was lying on, it was not a hard floor. Soil, maybe? His brain was still too foggy...

TW: Gaslighting May, 1994 The sound of cooing and babbling - babytalk - greeted Carol upon her return home. She was instantly on guard, ready to hide or strike at a moment's notice, as she passed through the entryway, not risking closing the door for fear the sound might alert whoever is...

AN: Had a plot bunny that refused to be let free so here we are. Just a short thing of an idea I had a while ago but went nowhere till today. Maybe in the far future I might make a longer thing of this but not right now. Enjoy. Iyanden. Iyanden. Doomed and Hopeful Iyanden. Those were just some...

“You gonna fight me?” He called out. His leg swung in a wide arc before he waddled into a strange crouch. “I’m a good guy,” I said. He nodded before he lunged forward and stood up straight onto his tiptoes with his arms completely flat against his sides. Stepping closer to me, in a squatting...

She could see her reflection in the stares of the people. A party fit for a princess, a debut that would be talked about for generations to come. In a hall that could fit hundreds of people, illuminated by chandeliers that shone like stars on the ceiling. And she stole their light. Priscilla...

“You seem to be in deep thought, princess,” a voice roused her awake. She must have been more tired than she thought if she managed to fall asleep in this carriage. Ineptly kept roads made for a miserable journey. Something to fix, she supposed. The horses sounded out of breath, but the sun was...

No grave can hold my body down. The checkered scarf looked out of place. The woman who wore it did not. She was timeless like a well-crafted sculpture—no matter which way she turned, the sun would follow suit to paint her in the most beautiful light. Those who would say that her beauty could...

Okay, so Imma get myself one of those snippet/one-shot threads! This will mostly be Worm and Harry Potter stuff, I guess? I do have some things that have been cluttering around my head for ages, but till now I never managed to put them to page, so...here's to hoping I'll get some more stuff...

AN: Random as hell plotbunny that wouldn't leave me alone. Oneshot for now, but may write more snips if my muse strikes. Kongo… Had no idea what to think. There, before her floated… her. Same hair in the same style, same face, same eyes. Same ‘arn’t you a bit short for a battleship?’ build...

They could feel the world around them shake as chaos began to take over everything, living in the Warhammer forty thousand universe wasn't as bad as the books made it look. Namely, because the two of them had ended up at the very bottom of a hive world with working magic tech. Not having any...

Small note in the beginning: The female part of the population has powers, since i don't think i explained that in-story. --- ‘If you stare into the abyss for too long, the abyss will start to stare back.’ Those were the words that were spoken to me at a very young age; they were a warning; A...

the one where Jushiro and Shunsui ship it Word count: about 1500 Status: incomplete, part 1/? Ships: Byakuya x Renji, Ukitake x Kyoraku Notes: I make a new thread and this is the first thing I post? — Kuchiki Byakuya, Captain of the Sixth Division of the Gotei Thirteen, is in love with his...

A quick one shot that I'll put here. Warhammer 40,000 belongs to Games Workshop. Zor

AN: Was listening to the song, and realized it kind of reminded me of Danny for some reason. Most of the narrative came from the lyrics (all of which exist in the dialogue), and though I was tempted to italicize them it kind of took me out of the story on reading it. Thanks to Juff and Archaon...
