The smoke didn't smell like fire.
It smelled like plastic left too close to a heater — sweet, chemical, quietly wrong — and Marcus Webb lifted his head from the pillow and sniffed twice because his body had learned the hard way that bad news deserved a second opinion before the...
Chapter 0 - Muscle Memory
I'd been wrestling with the same goddamn riff for forty minutes.
'I Want You (She's So Heavy).' The Beatles. Lennon's desperate, obsessive chanting over that slow, grinding descent into chaos. It was the kind of song that made you feel like the floor was tilting, like...
Threadmarks: Chapter 1: A Fantasy World With No Monster Girls?!
Utarou laid on the field, stabbed in the chest by a large pike as he was trampled by the cavalry of a small kingdom charged towards the nearby castle.
“Skill activated: Perfect Immortality.” A soft mechanical voice echoed through Utarou’s head as the final horse crushed his skull.

0000: Prologue

The Edinburgh of my last life, a century before this one, had been far different. It had only grown greyer and grimier as the years passed. The Edinburgh of this new, second life gleamed. The trams ran silently on magnetic rails, and the castle had lights installed that adjusted...
The clock on the warehouse wall read 9:47 p.m., and Leo Mercado still had forty more boxes to move.

Authors Note - Chapter One.
This will usually be at the end of the chapters, but I wanted to ensure that I put this in first.
Grounded Pokémon story. Survival-focused, not a power fantasy.

Threadmarks: I Reincarnated as Naruto Uzumaki With a System?
I died in a hospital bed, a prisoner in a body that never worked. My only escape was the world of Naruto — a story of a boy who never gave up.
I opened my eyes to the roar of a demon fox, the tears of a red-haired woman, and the final, sealing glow from a man in a white coat. I was reborn not...

Malfoy Manor — Spring 1977

Heroes aren’t to be trusted. They aren’t to be revered, or to be praised. They are to be feared, no matter the good they do, or the justice they seem to embody. Because it’s all a lie, a fabrication to make you believe that Heroes exist. Heroes don’t exist, only humans. And there is...
