    White Hair

    You’re a journalist living in their car, and you head all the way to Redgrave City for a story. You didn’t expect the story to turn into you. You’re Dante’s daughter but you don’t know you’re Dante’s daughter. Nero and Nico do, for obvious white haired reasons. Dante and Vergil are still cutting the Qliphoth tree at its roots to stop it from fusing the human and demon realms, so they’re indisposed in the meantime.

    Hal Jordan’s Bad Day

    Twenty-one years ago, a brief relationship ended before either party knew it would change their lives forever. Unknown to Hal Jordan, twins were born and separated shortly after entering foster care. One child, {{user}}, was adopted into a loving family and grew up believing she was an only child. While studying human rights at university, after wandering the university forest grounds for a place to study, she inherited the dying heart of an ancient cosmic being and became the hero known as Aurora. The other child, Rowan, remained in foster care until aging out of the system. Hardened by instability yet quietly kind, he built a life for himself with no knowledge of his biological family beyond fragmented records and unanswered questions. When a routine investigation into Aurora’s mysterious cosmic abilities uncovers connections to Hal Jordan, a chain of discoveries begins that none of them are prepared for. Suddenly Hal must face the reality that he has not one child, but two. {{user}} must grapple with learning she was adopted. Rowan must confront the possibility that the sister he spent his entire life imagining actually exists. And all three must decide whether family is something inherited by blood—or something built by choice.

    The Sea That Brought Them Home

    After escaping a violent coup led by their tyrannical stepfather, Crown Princess Zara Calliste and Crown Prince Zayne Calliste vanish beneath the sea. Believed dead by the kingdom they once called home, the twins wash ashore on a small island under the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates, barely clinging to life. The island’s doctor recognizes them immediately. Years ago, Zara saved her life without asking for anything in return. Unable to repay that kindness until now, she sends an emergency Den Den Mushi call to the Whitebeard Pirates, begging Marco to come heal injuries no ordinary doctor can treat. She asks for only one other thing: “If they survive… please don’t make them go back.” When the Whitebeard Pirates arrive, they expect to rescue two strangers. Instead, without realizing it, they welcome home two members of their family. Long before anyone discovers the truth—that Zara and Zayne are Whitebeard’s biological children—they become his children in every way that truly matters.

    Up in Smoke

    They all knew she smoked weed. It wasn’t exactly a secret on a ship where everyone had their vices. But what the crew didn't know was that 'sometimes' had quietly bled into 'every single day'— and that without it, she was barely holding herself together. Between the sudden mood swings, the snappy remarks, and the desperate need just to feel numb, the cracks are starting to show. The Straw Hats are finally starting to realize this isn't just a habit anymore. The only question is if they step in before she completely spirals, or if things have to get worse before they get better.

    The Future

    Cole, Hanzo, and Genji are on a routine mission when they accidentally trigger an experimental Overwatch time device — something either abandoned mid-development or sabotaged. They get pulled forward ~80–100 years into the future. Overwatch still exists, bigger and more institutionalized than they knew it. And the agents waiting on the other side of that portal? Descendants of people they love.

    Sea Mom

    The Straw Hat Pirates find a monster in the middle of the Grand Line. At least, that’s what everyone else calls her. She’s the size of a Sea King, covered in scars older than some kingdoms, and follows the Thousand Sunny home like a lost dog after Luffy shares his lunch. Nami thinks she’s trouble. Zoro thinks she’s weird. Sanji starts bringing her extra food. Chopper becomes obsessed with studying her. Luffy decides she’s a friend after approximately three seconds. The creature never speaks. Never attacks. Never leaves. She simply stays. What none of them know is that deep inside the ancient sea-demon’s body, hidden beneath layers of impossible biology and ocean magic, something is growing. Or rather… someone. And when the creature they’ve named Oona finally gives birth, the Straw Hats discover they’ve accidentally spent months preparing for the arrival of some type of sea beast baby creature, but are instead faced with a fully grown adult girl who doesn’t remember her previous life—and may never want it back. Oona insists it’s better this way.

    It’s Fucking Midnight

    The City Between Us

    Leila Farooqi moved from Canada to New York chasing a dream she isn’t entirely sure she still believes in. At twenty-three, she’s building a small following online through music recorded in her Brooklyn apartment, spending her days writing songs, thrifting, smoking on fire escapes, and trying not to think too hard about the family she left behind.

After accidentally witnessing activity connected to the Foot Clan’s remaining operations, Leila finds herself caught in something much bigger than she ever intended. Her life collides with four mutant turtles who have spent years protecting a city that doesn’t know they exist. As danger pulls them together, Leila becomes one of the few outsiders trusted with their secret world. The problem? The turtles have spent most of their lives hidden from humanity. Leila has spent most of hers hiding parts of herself. And the closer they become, the harder it becomes to ignore the connections forming between them.
