Summary
I casually collect Funko Pop! figures and more standard action figures, but there are a number of characters I want that don't have official figures. The obvious thing to do is make my own. Projects are, and will continue to be, from a bunch of different fandoms; some are for personal projects, but a lot of them aren't.

Summary
The first thing he noticed was that John, in the corner in front of his dresser and mirror was hunched in an odd way. He had too many angles and seemed to be spilling out of his sweater. It couldn’t be comfortable, the way John held his head, so that not even a hint of it could be seen. There was a soft hissing that filled the room, it seems to come from John’s direction but that made no sense, he didn’t have any alarms or text tones that sounded anything like it, Sherlock had memorized them all.

Bookmarker's Notes
holy fuck. holy shit.
I tried reading this last year(?) but because I was a young, dumb, and stupid ass teenager I moved on after chapter 1, thinking there would be no cryptids.I WAS SO FUCKING WRONG.
I genuinely don't know what to say other than 'read this fic'. If you're a goddamn thot like me for unreliable narrators, psychological horror and all around 'what the actual fuck' energy then BOY will you like this fic. I don't even care if you have a hate-boner for kpop or not. READ IT.
*edit*
okay there might be some spoilers in this next bit but if you need a lil more convincing,,, you kno *chefs kiss*
1. chpters two thru five are super fucking creepy and needlessly satisfy my horror side of the cryptid thirst. everything is so wonderfully described- with the unreliable and creepy-ass flashbacks to the contrast/reccuring themes of the cows and the white deer
2. chapter one with that rake-looking motherfucker had me like 'oh shit???'
3. the sheer amount of bitterness i felt during chapter eight n nine, ho lee fuck. not to mention a looming sense of dread at the end of seven?
4. THE EYES. theres something about unnatural eye colour that fucks me right up. the looming sense of strangeness that's like 'there's something wrong' and ur lizard brain is like 'get! the fuck! out!'
5. ouch oof my implied taegiseok. theres something that really wants them to be happy even though every thing is so ominous and awful and generally Not Right that it hurt
(super spoilers)
6. yes bitch gimmie that in ch nine, let moongi become a fellow Blue Eyed Mildly Terrifying Cryptid From The Woods That May Or May Not Have A Soft Spot For Children
7. jk!!! aaa!!! it kinda freaked me out how everyone got steadily more and more freaky and ominous, and i prolly woulda freaked tf out wayy ahead of yoongles if my 'friends' started acting like that on top of whatever demonic-ass-shit was happening, not to mention about how they all refer to moongi as 'the thing' or whatever, like ow.
(end of super spoilers)
8. i almost wish this wasn't published as a kpop fanfic bc i would not hesitate to snatch this up if it was in stores + with original names, so i could shove it onto all my friends without them being like '😳 kpop?'
i might add some more later but thats all my brain can come up with after being Wrecked!!! read this fic!!

Peter Parker: Legend of Empire State by Popjeckdoom

Summary
There was a dorm room, at the end of the third floor hallway on the male side of student housing, that was a mystery to all the students of Empire State. #339, Peter Parker.
The dorm itself wasn’t strange. It wasn’t haunted or cursed in any way, or as far as anyone knew. The door looked like everyone else’s; a doodle of Spidey on the whiteboard, a random scratch at the bottom left corner of the door, likely from someone moving in, etc. What made this ordinary room into a legend was it’s mysterious inhabitant, whom many believed did not even exist.
Peter Parker. The Criptid of Empire State.

Summary
Lance has a knack for transforming into a mermaid whenever he comes into contact with water, a trait inherited from his family — something he barely manages to hide through sheer luck and the help of his best friend, Hunk. Pidge is a conspiracy theorist determined to uncover the origin of the odd fish that’s been seen off of the Florida coast recently, toting a doubting Keith along with her. Allura is a scientist, with Shiro as her apprentice and research partner.

Summary
Lance watched, dread gripping him as a meteorite fell into the desert, taking the Kerberos shuttle down with it.
Months later, he drives into the desert to search for the site of impact. He has everything he needs—Pidge’s drone, Rover, Red's map, and a jeep in his favourite colour.
In the desert, the clouds are violet and everything beneath it dyed in its shade. There's no way out of here, and Keith yearns to see the blue sky again.
(Otherwise known as the time Lance found a cryptid with cute furry ears in a hazy purple desert.)
Written for the Klance Big Bang!

Summary
‘Okay so you think ghosts are fake but totally think that bigfoot and mothman are real?’ Lance scribbled furiously on the piece of paper in total disbelief.
‘Ghosts are total BS, man’ Keith look disinterested.
‘This is why you’re single'
Lance didn’t expect that his summer vacation would be spent at a library arguing with his deaf co-worker about why cryptids totally aren’t real.Keith volunteers at a library to keep himself out of trouble while his brother works. The worst part of his day? Explaining to some moron why Mothman is definitely a real entity and why the first moon landing was fake.
Funny enough, this is the highlight of both of their summers.

“Wait. Stop,” Keith put his hand up to silence Lance. “What did you say?”
“Stars and some shit?” Lance asked, the confusion apparent on his face.
“No, no. Before that.”
“That we would be learning about something else in astronomy.”
Keith shook his head.
“Dude, this isn’t astronomy.”
aka: Keith can't stop laughing (and yelling) at this idiot sitting next to him who got stuck in his cryptozoology class by accident.

Summary
Kent was going to lose this fucking faceoff, all because of his stupid fucking teeth. He could feel them trying to elongate behind his mouth guard as he bent over the ice, gripping his stick with a loose readiness that had long become second nature. He should have been concentrating everything on detecting the slightest indication the ref was going to drop the puck, but instead… he was fighting with his teeth.
He felt the ref start to shift. Screw it, the mouth guard would hide most of it anyway. He grinned, wide and feral, across the faceoff circle at his opponent, and, yeah, maybe he growled. He didn’t care; he let the adrenaline take him as the puck hit the ice the barest second before his stick connected, and then he was flying.
God, Kent loved hockey.
