Summary
The Sahara does not forgive mistakes, it does not spare arrogant idiots who set out on a journey, not equipped with any provisions, or even at least some water supply in the hope of outwitting the Lord God himself. Adele and Guillaume felt it firsthand.

Summary
Viktor has been a time traveler since he turned 15. His father warned him about it — how he would wake up in a different time or place, spend a day or two before falling back right into the moment he left. It happened less to those who were happy, but Viktor forgot that detail quickly. On the eve of his fifth consecutive Grand Prix, Viktor travels to 1936 Japan, the furthest from home he’s ever traveled. Thankfully, a kind and handsome man comes to his rescue. Yuuri and the rest of the Fujimura's take him in as one of their own. Viktor, for once, doesn't travel. But the family curse that has given him everything he wants can easily take it away just as quickly.

Summary
For every trial, for every task,
there is a corresponding mask.
A frown, a smirk, a pout, a grin,
They shield the soul contained therein.
But masks and faces, and manners too,
disguise the single face that’s true.
The face that’s under the facade,
the one the foolish, charmed and awed,
profess to see, to claim to know,
although they’ve never seen it show.
And so they pry through charm and guile,
in hopes to see what’s ‘neath that smile.
However, they are unaware,
that mask and face are not a pair.
For those that pry soon come to find
they don’t like what’s hiding behind,
because the face once locked within,
might not be that charming grin.
And thus the wise are dread to ask
to see what’s there beneath the mask.

You, the fresh faced Detective Camilla DeVille are hungry to solve this one, unwilling to allow anything to get into your way.
Unless that anything is the beautiful and seductive Alcina Dimitrescu, the lead singer of Miss D and the Pallboys who also happens to be a suspect in the murder.
Great.

And when in the midst of the forced community, someone steps out of line, Noriaki becomes particularly drawn in by one man in the cohort. One who dresses in rich, well-tailored suits, and has dark ebony hair. Who acts cold one moment, and invites him to drink the next.
It does not take long for Noriaki to realise, his stay at the lodge will not be at all how he envisioned it.

Summary
Ti·tan·o·mach·y : Also known as the Battle of the Gods and the Titan War. A ten-year series of battles in which the old gods of Greek mythology were overthrown and replaced by the new gods, led by Zeus.

And it’s not the mysterious growls coming from the basement of the library.
No, what’s wrong with Paradis University is that a legacy student like Erwin Smith is about to steal a prestigious fellowship right from under Levi’s nose.
That, and the growls coming from the basement of the library.
