    Summary

    When loneliness causes a mage to seek comfort in a silly ritual, the doors between realities open to allow her to find five curious monsters disguised as circus performers. Life changes rapidly for Esme, who finds herself at the center of attention between two obsessive beasts, while being scrutinized by the remaining three. But being close to others after being alone for so long opens her heart to feelings she had long since repressed.

    Is it safe to love when she has lost before? Is it possible to heal broken souls and shattered hearts? With her magic, can she bring closure to monsters who have mourned for far too long? Can they reciprocate, and help soothe her own overwhelming grief? Why can't she choose between the sweet Pierrot and the spicy Harlequin? Is it wrong to want them both?

    Summary

    Lily is a girl with no memories of her life before her 18th birthday...well, even the month after her 18th birthday is nothing but a blank slate with her. She is aware that she was in a coma and was found apparently been in an accident. But beyond that, her life is a mystery even to her. So when a love sick Pierrot decided that he wants to be her whole world, she really have no idea what life will bring her. Her only hope is that Pierrot's fellow troupe members will not lose patience and eat her. She means...she can't just lie and say she loves Pierrot when she doesn't even know what love feels like, right?

    Damn her moral. She can't break his heart with a lie even if it's to save herself.

    And now, everyone in the troupe is acting strange with her. Though Lily is too oblivious to her effect on them. At least she understand what Pierrot wants from her because he is honest about his feelings. The others? Not so much.

    Summary

    You are a monster living amongst humans, although after a still on-going months long bout of depression you find yourself living in filth. It doesn't help that your job doesn't pay you enough to live alone, so you share a cramped apartment with probably the worst roommate known to man. Your shapeshifting capabilities are the only thing keeping you safe right now. You are tired. You are lost. You are very, very hungry.
    In a fit of desperation you try to snag an easy catch within the new circus that's arrived in town; surely no one would miss one person missing from such a massive crowd? Especially with the rumours already circulating the establishment and its performers. It was the perfect plan. But your hunger made you sloppy, you didn't notice that this pink ticket holder had already been marked...you were stealing food from forces much stronger than you. You would be dead, if it wasn't for your previous generosity to a certain red clown. However, you still owe them, and the ringleader seems to already have a plan in mind on how you can repay them... (manual labour, not sex)

    Summary

    I’m running through the darkness, my eyes darting wildly through the trees as branches claw at my skin and roots threaten to trip me at every step. The forest feels endless—twisting, tightening—like it knows what I am and wants me back where I belong. Their footsteps pound behind me, heavy and relentless, never far, never slowing.
    I don’t dare look back.
    My lungs burn, each breath scraping my throat raw. Tears blur my vision as a whimper slips free, pathetic and broken, when I feel my wounds tear open again—old cuts splitting wide, warm and slick against my skin. The scent of blood hangs around me like a beacon. I escaped the circle, the chanting, the hands that held me down while they prayed to something that listened—but escape doesn’t mean freedom. Not yet.
    A sharp crack echoes through the trees.

    Summary

    “Why—why, God?!” he hisses under his breath, voice barely louder than the crackle of the lanterns as he walks the perimeter of the campsite. “You hate me or something? Why out of all people did I have to end up as the background character in a game that’s not even finished?”
    The circus caravans sit quietly for now, wheels half-sunk into the dirt from travel, paint peeling from too many roads and too many promises. Canvas tents are still being raised farther in, stakes hammered into the ground with dull, rhythmic thuds. It’s early—before everything. Before names turn into legends. Before stories rot into warnings.
    “Thank the lord I haven’t met them yet,” he mutters, rubbing his gloved hands together more out of nerves than cold. “So if I do… just don’t screw it up. Don’t be a total abusive dick.”

    Summary

    A young monster overheard the circus' increasing issues with humans and their smartphones. She decides to help them out with her specific power, not expecting to be permanently invited into the Freak Circus of Horrors as part of the troupe. She tries her best to navigate this dysfunctional family and, over time, perhaps her efforts were not in vain.

    A/N: OC is demirose (demiromantic and demisexual). As of now, she has no romantic or sexual feelings towards anyone.

    Summary

    His name is Chrome and love is a ball game he wasn't aware he was a part of or even participating in. With no voice to confess with, perhaps telling Pierrot will be difficult unless he can figure out a way to show it before it's too late.

    Yet, arriving to their new location, he didn't know Pierrot liked coffee that much, or maybe it's the little barista that's working there that caught the taller clown's eyes? Oh... Oh dear...

    Summary

    You’ve always been ordinary — quiet, unnoticed, perfectly mundane — until the day your impulsive kindness made you the centrepiece in a story of vanishing locals and eerie circus performers. You’ve always felt out of place, like the world was a stage you were only pretending to belong on. When a single act of kindness toward a grinning jester draws you into the orbit of a travelling circus, the line between reality and performance begins to blur. The disappearances in town are only the beginning, because the most dangerous secret is not the circus, or the creatures dwelling within, but the truth about what you are… and why he recognised you before you even spoke.

    Summary

    She climbed onto the stage while the Jester was directing his Fool assistants. She crept up silently, like a shadow, and with all her might, hugged his leg.
    — Mommy! Your performance was beautiful! You were gorgeous, I love you, Mommy! — she blurted out and held out a broom made of half-wilted wildflowers.
    The Jester turned his head so slowly that Katherine almost heard the creak of his neck vertebrae. He stared at the pitiful bouquet, then at the beaming Katherine. A silence fell over the tent that could be cut with a knife.

    Summary

    She never hated monsters.

    She hated what they had become.

    Starved. Trapped. Forsaken by the very man who called himself their savior. When survival demanded a price, they paid it by consuming one of their own—Columbina—and the strength they gained came at a cost far darker than anyone could have imagined.

    For years living among them, Elia questioned their cruelty, their distrust of humans… until she was forced to witness every memory, every century of suffering that shaped them.

    And something inside her shattered.

    She understood why they no longer trusted humanity.
    She understood why she herself was not trusted.
    Her own kind revolted her.

    In her final moments, an unknown being offered her a deal she could not refuse… at a price.

    Now cast into the past, with only a single year to exist, Elia must decide:

    Can the past be rewritten?

    If she can save Columbina…
    Could she save them all?
    Even if it means she ceases to exist?...
    Even if she must become the very thing she despises… to ensure their survival?
