Summary
Dr. Caroline Proctor thought she understood history. As a Colonial Studies professor at Boston University, she'd spent her career examining the intersection of European and Indigenous cultures in early America. But when genealogical research reveals she's descended from both Salem witch trial accusers and the accused, Caroline discovers that some history is very much alive.
Driven by guilt over her dual heritage and armed with dangerous knowledge from both traditions, Caroline attempts to open gateways between the world of the living and the realm of spirits—seeking justice for centuries-old wrongs. But her good intentions spiral into a nightmare as she realizes that bridging worlds requires more than academic understanding.
When Detective Sarah Chen stumbles onto crime scenes that defy explanation and Wampanoag spiritual leader Grace Thundercloud recognizes the signs of corrupted gateway magic, they must work together to stop Caroline before her quest for historical justice tears open permanent wounds between worlds.
A story of cultural collision, generational trauma, and the price of trying to heal the past through violence. Sometimes the greatest monsters are those who believe themselves to be heroes. -

Summary
A flyer. An audition. A number—42—that feels less like a place in line and more like a lottery ticket out of poverty. For Alastor, walking into Morris Studios is an act of desperate hope. Surrounded by a cacophony of competition, he waits his turn, clinging to the memory of his mother's face. But when the moment comes, the polished performance he's prepared crumbles. In its place, he offers something far more vulnerable: a simple, tender song, sung without pretense. The man behind the glass doesn't just hear a voice. He sees a worth Alastor has never been allowed to imagine. And in a single, life-altering handshake, everything changes.

Summary
In the northern highlands lies Altharys, the vampire kingdom. Prince Hyunjin was raised within its rules and expectations. He understands what is required of him—and what is not.
When a wolf enters the heart of his kingdom as a prisoner, the truce between realms is put to the test, and a forbidden question begins to take shape beneath the moon: what happens when the enemy is no longer so easy to hate?
Suspicion and cautious curiosity draw Hyunjin and the wolf closer than either intends, until denial becomes its own kind of lie. Stolen touches. Glances that linger too long. Nights that don’t belong to time. Between blankets that keep a scent, borrowed books, and a gland that throbs beneath the skin, they discover that each other’s bodies speak a language The Lands of the Veiled Moon has forbidden.
But what is born between shadow and dawn cannot remain untouched by daylight. This is the tale of two princes—heirs to opposing moons—who dare to choose each other in a world built to keep them apart.

Summary
Story Blurb
Chen Shicheng has stared at the examination list sixteen times. Sixteen times, his name was absent. But this final failure does not bring mere disappointment—it triggers a syntax collapse. The world around him begins to unravel: words crawl like maggots, moonlight grows teeth, and ancestral whispers promising silver transform into a viral, nonsensical command.
Driven from the ruins of his scholarly dreams into a feverish excavation beneath his own floorboards, Chen Shicheng unearths not treasure, but something far more ancient and indifferent. His quest becomes a terrifying inversion: not a search for value, but a recursive descent where hope, memory, and identity are systematically dismantled. Guided by a cold, white radiance, he moves toward a culmination that feels less like an end, and more like a flawed component being reclaimed by a vast, incomprehensible system.
This is a tale of madness not as outburst, but as erosion; of a legacy not of wealth, but of cosmic, chilling grammar.

Summary
A chilling reimagining of Lu Xun's classic “A Madman’s Diary,” infused with cosmic dread. Through the fragmented writings of a man slipping into madness, a horrifying truth is revealed: the “cannibalism” of tradition and conformity is not merely metaphor, but a literal, ancient horror lurking beneath the veneer of “civilized” society. As his perception warps, familiar faces twist into monstrous shapes, and history itself whispers of an endless feast. Can he escape being the next course?
//
Madness, at times, is clarity too much.
When dogs regard you as a meal, and in the eyes of those dearest to you there flickers a gourmet’s chill,
you see the world shed its skin of benevolence and righteousness, revealing the writhing skeleton of four thousand years.Beware—
lest it hears your awareness. -

Summary
At 2:41 AM, Steve Rogers sits on the floor of his apartment and listens to Trouble Man for the first time.
By morning, he's called Sam Wilson. He's not sure what he expected.What follows is eight movements: a 1940s Harlem Steve can no longer reach, three men who loved him when love was a survival act, a serum that took the body everyone wanted to hold, and a man in the present day who is building something patient and deliberate and entirely unafraid of what it means.
Sam Wilson is not confused about what he wants. Steve Rogers is terrified of what he deserves. Lenny, ninety-four and still calling him baby, has watched this particular argument before and has opinions.
Whatever you missed — it's on there.
A Steve/Sam love story structured as a jazz album. Eight movements, three timelines, one long-overdue arrival.
