    Summary

    (THIS STORY IS UNDERGOING HEAVY RENOVATIONS AND IS IN AN UNFINISHED STATE. Apologies for the disconnected nature of the story in its present form as I update chapters and rework plot lines. It will someday be cohesive!)
    Cora, daughter of Demeter, has always longed to find her place among the gods. Her mother prefers the company of mortals and forbids Cora from mingling with the gods of the pantheon for fear of corruption. One day, during the winter solstice celebration, one of two times Cora is allowed to visit Olympus throughout the year, she meets eyes with a handsome stranger who she learns is Hades, ruler of the underworld. From there, her infatuation grows and she establishes herself among the other gods as Persephone, Hades's Iron Queen.
    This story will incorporate many myths involving Persephone, including some found in Orphic tradition mythology, which may differ from popular myths. I will attempt to create a timeline with these myths, but it may need some adjustment as I move further into the story. Any feedback is always appreciated!

    Summary

    Most unusually, _not_ in Tolkien/Silmarillion fandom.

    Fan poetry as tribute to the creators who have shaped me throughout the years. I have been writing these, very intermittently, for a while, and figured they should have a home somewhere.

    Chapter 1: For you, a doorway... (Seanan McGuire's Wayward Children, and the fantasy worlds we build.)
    Chapter 2: You think you're giving me the world (Frontier sci-fi, and the heroines who are expected to lose their thirst for adventure once they are married to the heroes.)
    Chapter 3: A fairytale of rockets, incomplete (Ray Bradbury and classic sci-fi, and building our own fantasies.)
    Chapter 4: The witch who used to haunt Potrero Hill (Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere, and people who have fallen through the cracks.)
    Chapter 5: Red shoes. (A different take on the classic fairy tale.)
    Chapter 6: Arrival. (Fantasy characters who run away and grow up.)
    Chapter 7: Elegy for Apollo. (Ada Palmer's Terra Ignota, and the irresistible drive to explore the universe.)
    Chapter 8: Forgetting. (Memory loss, and what we leave behind.)
    Chapter 9: The Price of Fire (Prometheus, Rewind). (Our stories and histories fascinated with glory and war.)

    Summary

    Patroclus would rather sell his soul than marry Achilles, his childhood rival and heir to a prominent textile manufacturing house. But life in the country is nothing like Patroclus expects - bringing forth new responsibilities, friendships, and a side of himself he never thought existed. Not to mention Achilles, who is hardly the same boy who taunted him mercilessly all those years ago.

    Summary

    Persephone, an angel in Heaven, was all but banished to the mortal realm by her mother, Demeter. She was forced to contain her ever growing power and not fulfill the destiny she knows is hers. The destiny of taking over the throne. However, one day when her mother strikes a deal with the Sin of Wrath to trade Persephone to him as an offering, her entire life is changed. She must use her cunning to discover how to escape his clutches, enduring abuse and trying to topple his empire. Along the way she meets unlikely friends in dark places, learning who it is she can trust. In this journey, she finds that while she didn't belong in either Heaven or the mortal realm, Hell could contain her ambition. She could finally fulfill her destiny. She just needed to replace a Sin to do it.

    A retelling of the Hades and Persephone myth set in the Hazbin Hotel universe with Persephone as an angel and Hades as Satan, the Sin of the Wrath ring. Satan absolutely sucks and Persephone basically girlbosses her way to the throne. If you want coming of age, rebellion, manipulation, and a sprinkling of romance with a Greek mythology twist, you've come to the right place.

    Summary

    Aziraphale grasped for something to say and settled rather lamely on “Ah, yes… yes, you do seem to be missing your armour.” For all his tenderness, for all his love, in the end even the best angel in all of Heaven was powerless in the face of such grief as this, hanging immobile in the heavy air. He turned, then, to stare helplessly at Crawly, who for his part could only shrug. Aziraphale huffed quietly. Fiend, he mouthed.

    Summary

    The naiad turned around, spotting a familiar face. It was the king of Sparta himself, Menelaus. Though, his demeanor was wildly different from what they had come to expect; he was disheveled, and his eyes burnt with a fury that would rival the king of the gods. He grasped Marion’s forearm, stepping forward as they leaned back in shock, “My friend. We need to talk,” A dark glint crossed over his face, casting a shadow where one shouldn’t have been, “The hounds of war are howling… and they hunger for Troy’s blood."

    ------------

    A story about a spirit from Greek mythology who believes way too much in their own godhood, and when they're pulled into the trojan war they must face the consequences of their hubris. This is a story that was intended to be submitted for a school writing competition, but I went around 15 pages over the limit, so i'm posting it here for you all to enjoy!
