Summary
After the Battle of Hogwarts, the wizarding world craved nothing more than to move on from the horrors of war. However, the universe had darker plans: a plague was coming. A new strain of vampirism spread like wildfire, forcing society into a desperate lockdown.
Three years after the first infection was recorded, Hermione tries to rebuild a sense of normalcy. But her life is upended when Draco Malfoy is caught attempting to flee the country while under house arrest. To avoid a return to Azkaban, he strikes a desperate bargain with the Ministry.
Hermione Granger—now the wizarding world's leading Dark Artifact specialist—is dispatched to Malfoy Manor to catalog its dangerous contents. She expected to face cursed relics and a bitter rival; she did not expect her new housemate to be hiding a dark secret more dangerous than any object in the manor. -

Summary
Cas is not the hero of this story. She is not the princess, not the love interest, not even a name worth writing. She wasn't supposed to be here. But when she accidentally takes her brother's place, the story begins to unravel.
Now Cas is trapped in a fairytale that's falling apart because of her, disguised as a boy in a world she doesn't belong, serving a princess she can't stop fighting with. And the only way home is to fix what she broke: to make sure the story finds its way back, and everyone gets the happily ever after they were promised.

Summary
Alchemy. The scientific technique of understanding, deconstructing, and reconstructing matter. If performed skillfully, it is even possible to create gold out of lead. However, it is not an all-powerful art. As a science, there are natural principles in place. It is impossible to create something out of nothing. If one wishes to obtain something, something of equal value must be given. Only one thing can be created from something of a certain mass. This is the law of equivalent exchange, the basis of all alchemy. In accordance with this principle, there is a taboo among alchemists: Human transmutation is strictly forbidden. For what could equal the value of a Human soul?

Summary
Dopo essere stato lasciato da Persefone, Ade torna a essere ciò che conosce meglio: distante, diffidente, inaccessibile. L'amore che credeva eterno si è spezzato e lui non ha alcuna intenzione di commettere di nuovo lo stesso errore.
Finché Afrodite non decide di sfidarlo ancora.
Quando Iris, una semplice mortale, viene trascinata nel suo mondo come possibile "favorita", Ade è certo di una cosa: non si lascerà coinvolgere.
E Iris, dal canto suo, non ha alcuna intenzione di diventare il capriccio di un Dio.Eppure, tra sguardi trattenuti, tensioni che bruciano sotto pelle e silenzi che dicono troppo, qualcosa cambia.
Qualcosa che Ade credeva morto.
Qualcosa che Iris non avrebbe mai voluto provare.Ma il loro legame è proibito.
Perché lei è mortale e lui appartiene all'Oltretomba.
E perché, nonostante tutto, Ade sembra appartenere ancora a qualcun'altra.Tra desiderio, colpa e verità taciute, Ade e Iris dovranno scegliere se restare lontani o rischiare tutto per un amore capace di distruggerli.

Summary
Wind-tossed roadblocks arranged into a crude pathway would make an inviting entrance for any desperate traveller. The sound of the stampeding waterfall was just out of earshot as boots crossed the toppled wire fence. A stop sign bent out of sorts, prickled vines hugging porous walls with vigour. A discarded cellphone. Trodden on. Broken glass doors with faint, pained moans of the eroded building frame. Audible if everything else was silent.
Any whisper of Filgaia had been silenced for years, however.
A bulletin board, with reminders and pictures of employees. A fire hose and blanket. A coat on the sharp edge of a cabinet. A creaked, hanging jaw swinging under a set of jaundiced, glossy eyes.
A narrative retelling of the Wild Arms (PS1) story through the lens of a semi-modern zombie apocalypse. This came to me randomly in a chemistry class and I wanted to see the vision.

Summary
Une jeune femme se réveille, amnésique.
Pour en rajouter une couche, elle est devenue un monstre.
De plus, elle doit prendre soin d’un enfant.
Un réveil normal en somme.
*
Plus loin, un jeune mage maladroit décide de partir à la cherche d’un groupe hétéroclite :
Un pirate possédant un équipage,
Un assassin sans émotion,
Un géant au grand cœur,
Une jeune femme morte,
Une naine guerrière,
Et un gamin.
Bref, une belle brochette de héros pour sauver le monde, non ?
*
Ou le détruire, par accident…Extrait :
À mon réveil, une pensée me traverse l’esprit :
Où suis-je ?
Je suis plongée dans l’obscurité, incapable de distinguer ma propre main. Une odeur de terre humide envahit mes narines, l’air est lourd et chaud. De mes mains, j’essaie de trouver des repères familiers, mais mes doigts ne rencontrent qu’une surface dure.
Que m’est-il arrivé ? -

Summary
Eli "Rook" de Riva found an unlikely friend in the grieving of a fellow Crow. One night, unable to simply sit by and watch an Antaam patrol as they escorted a cage-shaped wagon, they intervened- though the result wasn’t quite what they had hoped it to be. A temporary black mark against their name landed them an informal contract to join Varric's team in an effort to hunt down the Dread Wolf himself.
But life can be hard for an aquaphobe, especially when there's a new fight around every corner and the god in their head blurs the line between friend and foe.
This dialogue-heavy story leans into manipulation, but there’s fun downtime too. Somewhere. Mostly in Act 2. Some quests are detailed, and others are mentioned or skipped over entirely. Sometimes I send companions off to do quests rather than lazing around the Lighthouse all day. Because seriously, quit eating all the food without pulling your weight. We have a world to save!
