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.

They're wrong, but Amélie makes great tips by playing to the tropes. Still, she'd love to know what's going on with the pink haired raver who picks up a different girl every weekend...

I live next door to a haunted bookshop owned by an immortal cryptid bastard. AMA! by kyaticlikestea
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV)
11 Jun 2020
Tags
Summary
Or, a cryptid bastard man haunts Reddit, trying to find out how to ask out his crush of the past 6,000 years and getting downvoted to literal oblivion. Just normal stuff on the world wide web.Before anyone reports this post, I got this AMA authorised by posting proof to a mod, so there.
Hi, Reddit! I’m no-one special, but about 6 months ago, I moved into a flat above a cafe next door to a bookshop, and my life has never been the same since, because the man who runs the bookshop is some sort of ageless (mostly) benevolent eldritch being. By all accounts, he hasn’t aged a day since at least 1944, sometimes he seems to have just too many eyes, and I once saw him turn water into wine (a nice rosé). His coworker / best friend / boyfriend / shadow entity is also definitely some kind of cryptid, but despite trying harder to be a bastard, he’s somehow less successful at it.
So, if you have any questions about what it’s like to live next door to an eternal bastard man, AMA!

That Odd London Bookshop by WritesEveryBlueMoon
Fandom: Good Omens (TV), Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
13 Mar 2021
Summary
A.Z. Fell and Co. Antiquarian Bookshop has been the ultimate paradox for book lovers for over 200 years: It has almost every book imaginable, but an owner who refuses to sell any of them. At least there is fun to be had and friends to be made in the ambitious, if rarely successful, endeavours of the customers.

things that go bump in the night by corvidspectre
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Batman (Comics), DCU (Comics)
24 Oct 2020
Tags
Summary
Here's the thing about stories: they have to come from somewhere. Stories had to be built from reality, and as such, all of them on some level, had a grain of truth to them. Even tall tales of a Boogeyman- a Batman.
It just so happened that, however, the 'myth of Batman' had a substantial bit more truth to it than the child populace of Gotham would like to believe.
It just wasn't them he was out to get.
(Well. Unless they needed a home.)

Summary
No one goes to Gotham, and no one ever leaves. What if Batman hadn’t been so trusting? What if he’d been content to stay in the shadows and watch from afar? A.K.A my self indulgent isolationist batfam au no one asked for. I was gonna write a one shot about them being creepy, but it turned into investigative journalist Clark REAL quick, sorry if any of the JL are ooc I’ve really only read batfam stuff and a bit of Superman. This is my first fic so don’t judge me too harshly.

Summary
Clark Kent had never once heard of the Bat, and he was beginning to think he didn’t want to. Diana on the other hand seemed to be having the time of her life leading the League on a wild goose chase through the streets of Gotham in search of one shadow that seemed to multiply every time they turned a corner.

Summary
Based on a tumblr post:
What if instead of Batman making criminals fear him through brute force, he instead freaks them out by being as inhuman seeming as possible (while still beating them with brute force).
In short: Batman is out here to scare the living daylights out of bad guys and he's having such a good time right now. -

No one believed that Batman was real until he showed up in one of the League meetings. Justice League meetings, not Assassins' League. Well... Maybe, he was there too and ninjas were too unaware to notice him. With the Bat, no one could really know. He wasn't human after all, was he?

Peter Parker: Legend of Empire State by Popjeckdoom
Fandoms: Spider-Man - All Media Types, Marvel Cinematic Universe, Daredevil (Comics), The Avengers (Marvel) - All Media Types
19 Jan 2021
Tags
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.
What could go wrong?

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.
