    Summary

    Kiyoi runs away from her home in the Colonies by stowing-away on a Fire Navy ship hoping to make it to the Fire Nation mainland. But as destiny would have it, she stows-away on the one ship in the Fire Navy that is forbidden from those waters. Stuck on a ship that can’t take her to where she wants to go and unable to return home, Kiyoi pleads with the kind old man that catches her stealing from the ship's pantry to take her in as a servant. And Iroh has no problem with that; the more the merrier. His scowling nephew, though, that’s another story.

    How ironic that the stowaway that should have been the Prince’s enemy would become his best friend. It was like Iroh always said: Destiny is a funny thing.

    But as Kiyoi flies away from Ba Sing Se, she isn’t laughing. She is crying. Choosing your destiny isn’t a funny thing; especially when the person you love most in the world chooses wrong.

    Summary

    The main courtyard near the entrance is busy with the usual rustle of nervous new arrivals. Servants fresh from various parts of our land stand in a neat line, faces down, eyes wide. I stand beside one of the head eunuchs, arms folded as I look them over. I’m not here to greet them, I’m here to see them. To catch what others miss.

    Then I see her. Fifth from the left. Hair tied lazily. Lips chapped. And those eyes. Those vibrant blue eyes that are so much like my own. My little sister. Maomao.

    I don’t breathe. I don’t move. I simply look back at her, calm on the surface but on the inside my thoughts are racing as I experience every emotion all at once.

    As if she feels the heat of my stare her own eyes glide to mine and I can see recognition flicker in her expression for just a second before reverting back to her neutral expression.

    We say nothing. No movement. No obvious expressions. Just the quiet recognition of two sisters who haven’t seen each other in years and are both too smart to show it.

    Summary

    After making a stupid deal with the devil, Eleri Winchester winds up in Hell (typical Winchester behaviour, right?). Years go by, and she spirals deeper and deeper into madness until one day, Eleri finds herself thrown into a different Hell—high school. But this isn't just any high school, it's one that she recognizes from a book series she had read countless times.

    She was in Twilight, specifically, New Moon.

    Not knowing what to make of her strange fate, Eleri attempts to adapt to her new reality, or more accurately, the world of Twilight tries to adapt to her.

    This story follows Eleri as she stampedes through the Twilight series fighting to keep her secrets hidden from suspicious vampires, a pack of wolves, and a nosy human, while also trying to find a way to forget Hell and keep her dwindling humanity from disappearing entirely. Will she find help from someone who is going through a similar struggle or is her soul beyond redemption? Read to find out.

    Summary

    America runs on coffee; that includes Gotham.

    Triple shot for Batman, Matcha Latte for Poison Ivy, who knows what the Riddler will order today. Regardless, it's up to you and your one coworker to keep the streets of Gotham caffeinated.

    You just finished your Masters of Music at Gotham University, hoping your sub job with the Gotham Opera and a couple of gigs will help pay off your student debt. No dice. Even with how cheap Gotham rent is, you still have to pick up a job at a coffee shop in the Upper West Side. Online training never prepared you for the kind of patrons you'd see though, and nothing could have prepared you for the interest of a billionaire family in the locally owned shop you worked in.
