Rachel worked hard, looking forward to the vacation she saved up for, a break from family troubles, only for troubles to find her as the paparazzi take an interest in a certain pop idol and some of the other things going on at the Pokemon Resort, including her brother's friend group which includes a not-friend but rival who believes his mother is an alien. Because while Pokemon exist, aliens don't, right?Disclaimer - I don't own Voltron: Legendary Defender or Pokemon Concierge. This is one of my Open Novella projects for 2024. The main prompt is prompt nine, "After some long months of working harder than ever, you finally get to your well deserved vacation getaway but when you arrive at the hotel there is this one star that brings all the paparazzi and trouble with them and makes your vacation a one to remember."I'm also working with prompt four, "When life gives you ballons, you fly up into the sky," prompt thirteen, "Every family has that one member of whom no one speaks, and that's you, prompt thirty-one, "'Your Mom was an alien.' Exactly what a child needs t hear from their father as a bedtime story," and prompt thirty-four, "You wanted to go to the moon, see the silvery white glow of it for yourself. Instead, the moon came to you. One day, at your door."…

Can Regulus' words speak louder than his brother's actions? There are many times Regulus doubts his ability to get through to his older brother who is unwilling to listen to anyone with the last name of Black, but a part of him wants to believe in Slughorn's pet project of forming a band and making music to bring house unity just as much as he wants to believe the songs he writers as Stubby Boardman might get through to Sirius.Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024. I'm using prompt one for this story, "Sometimes words speak louder than actions."…

The Fire Nation understands the need for a male heir to Crown Prince Iroh after the death of his son Lu Ten, yet they're far from thrilled with the choice being Prince Zuko, the son of the man who tried killing Fire Lord Azulon, forgetting the boy's father tried killing the young prince as he might be just as unhinged as not only his father but his own sister.Disclaimer - I don't own Avatar: The Last Airbender. This was written for Open Novella 2024 and is a giftfic for my friend Kelsey; it's also an alternative universe to my fanfic series To Lose or To Gain where the Fire Nation doesn't know how unhinged Ozai is and instead thinks he willingly gave his first-born son to his older brother.As for the prompt, I'm using prompt ninty-nine which resulted in this AU popping into my head, "The royal family needs a male heir to the throne, and they're willing to accept any boy, even if he's born to their least hinged relative."…

The library is haunted., not to mention the whole school That much Lindsey Eden figures out on his first day as he listens carefully to the students gossiping about the previous librarian and some of the other staff that have left. Not that principle cares because none of the information is public knowledge - yet. His not caring as long as the parents don't know--Disclaimer - I don't own Lockwood & Co. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024 and a sequel to my Lockwood & Co. project from last year. The prompt I'm using is prompt ninety-seven. "It is your first day at your first job, and you discover the library you'll be working in is very haunted.." I am also using prompt sixty-two, "There is something creepy about the new librarian at school.."…

Damian's family are all superheroes, with all three of his older brothers being well known within the superhero community which means they're often saving Gotham and the off shoots to the city. Then, one day, to spend time with them, Damian decides the route is to become a villain called Rouge George and life becomes more interesting, or so Damian thinks.Disclaimer - I don't own Young Justice. This is one of my ONC projects for this year. The prompt I am using is prompt eighty-seven, "You come from a family of highly respected heroes. All three of your big brothers are known as powerhouses, but you rarely see them since they're always saving the city. One day you realise that the only way to see all of your brothers is to become a villain. Turns out you're better at it than you thought, and family dinners suddenly become the most amusing time of day."For obvious reasons, that was a difficult one to pass up, but to make it work I didn't just go with the character's as is, but instead decided to go AU with Jason not becoming Red Hood in this and bringing Damian home to Wayne manor at a much earlier age which is what the first few chapters of the novella will cover as this will be important later on. And then the fun begins.…

Something as simple as wishing for a second chance to confess to one's first crush should result in ending up in the world of Harry Potter, but that is indeed what happened to Eugene. Unfortunately, this also means the girl who bullied his crush has a second chance at that as well. Lyra, on the other hand, is starting a new life with her family while dealing with unfounded allegations regarding her new family having unsavory ulterior motives.Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024 which is also a sequel to a project from 2021 that may need a bit of editing, yet this should also stand on it's own - aka be able to be read on it's own. The prompt I am using is prompt fifty-nine "Reincarnating into your favourite story wasn't what you had in mind when begging for a second chance.". I am also utilizing prompt sixty-five, "she realized that whenever she let her body fall slowly to the bed, the bed sank and became a portal to another world as a side prompt.…

Katara dislikes being confined to the home of her father, the head chieftain of the Southern Water Tribe, after her mother's death and eventually sneaks out in disguise and meets and befriends the nephew of the local tea merchant while remaining unaware of the ramifications of her actions.Disclaimer - I don't own Avatar: The Last Airbender. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024 and a giftfic for my friend Kelsey Alicia. For this story I am using prompt fifty-five, "you're a young royal in disquise who befriends a villager with a scarred face. One day they are arrested for stealing something you gave to them."Note - While I choose to ignore anything from LoK or the comics that retcons AtLA content I'm not against using content that doesn't, hence the use of existing Southern Water Tribe characters from the comics in addition to creating new ones, but certainly none of this strange idea of a tribe being a colony of another tribe or a tribe voting their chieftain(s) in instead of the tradition of heredity and/or earning the position through ones own merit.As such, the Southern Water Tribe is reverted to an actual sister tribe to the Northern Water Tribe, aka an actual tribe rather than a colony and Hakoda is back to being the head chieftain as implied by what Sokka says about being the equivalent to a prince in his tribe to Princess Yue which, on top of the fact there's no way Hakoda would have gotten that many boats from a single village, indicates Hakoda was always head-chieftain.…

Hermione grew up reading fairy tales and other stories as an escape from her Cinderella-like life with her stepmother, her father none the wiser because of Ursula's underhanded tactics. Then, she learned magic was real, that the fairy tales--perhaps magic being real isn't a happily ever after fairy tale, but more akin to the nightmares painted by the Brothers Grimm.Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter or Worst Witch. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024. This is written for prompt thirty-six, "'Fairytales are real,' and there couldn't be anything worse.." The Cinderella storyline provides the main elements, but there are also elements from other fairy tale stories. This also fulfills a prompt for a collection on AO3.…

Regulus died in a dark lake. Sirius died falling through the veil. The brothers both awake with lingering memories of limbo's message of trying again as well as the multiple lives they're meant to proceed through simultaneously.Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. This story is one of my ONC projects for 2024, but the inspiration for this story is prompt number six. "Your life as you know it has ended. Somewhere in Limbo you're met with the message: 'Something went wrong. Please try again.'"…

This is the "next" one-shot in my Life Moments series, which got sidelined because I'd misplaced my notes, and I've been wanting to finish the series, so here is the story for Kristy for the seventh episode.

The Flying Pigs constantly go behind enemy lines, because all of them, including the kid in charge of the tech want to go back home to the alliance.Disclaimer - I don't own Stardew Valley. This is written for the sudden death round for Write to Rank 2023 so I can catch up on the couple of rounds I missed, but the goal is to write a story based on the prompt "You are tasked with a covert mission deep behind enemy lines. Soon things take a turn for the worse, what happened?", but the story needed to write mainly in active voice while being 750-800 words.…

"Pick a book that will help you make friends with your dorm mates," her Uncle Hamlet said, only for the plan not to work. Hermione simply isn't into gossiping like her dormmates, of anything they say and doesn't see that changing.Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. On top of fulfilling a prompt for the Untold Forty collection this story is the next story in Not So Muggle Moments which is a remix of the second story, "Year One: Even Dracula Thinks This is Insane" Muggle(born) Moments with this being the reaction remix. All of these remixes involve the addition of my headcanon of Regulus being Mr. Granger, which in turn means he is alive an well.See notes at the bottom of the one-shot for what elements from the one-shot shaped what I did in my own story.Prompt: In canon we see Hermione interacting mostly with Ron and Harry, but for this story have her interact with one of the unloved forty instead (writer's choice of course). It can just be platonic or the writer can choose to ship, but their relationship should be the main focus of the story.…

Regulus doesn't consider him a hero as that's his brother's role, nor does he expect to be swept through time by the doctor's daughter as her companion unaware that all companions are heroes in their own right.Disclaimer - I don't own Doctor Who, Harry Potter or any of the Authurian myth adaptions this pulls from. (Sword in the Stone - 1963 and Once and Future King). This story is written for Fandom Family Festival 2023 utilizing a prompt posted to the Random crossover ... or maybe not so random after all collection over at AO3 to come up with the idea for the story. Prompt: This is ridiculously random, but something about Jenny doing her own parallel universe travelling and maybe helping out in Magical Britain? Feel free to use any pairing or just leave it gen.…
