Summary
No one ever asked him why he would serve in a war that wasn’t his. It was widely assumed that it was for love, though that wasn’t quite right. If anyone had asked, he would have told them, quite simply, “This is the way.”
His legacy ended in disgrace, but nothing could take away the honor for which he had lived his life.
Hatake Sakumo backstory. (Previously White Fang)

Summary
Eren Yeager is an 800 year old Immortal who has become bored and depressed with his existence. Then a lot of things hit him at once: his old friend/rival returns in need of his help, he's confronted by an insane megalomaniac determined to take his Head, the man that broke his heart 300 years ago comes back into his life, AND he has to embark on a quest to recover a magic sword that may or may not even exist.
And then there's his new Watcher. The kid with the sunshine colored hair who laughs at all Eren's dumb jokes and who Eren suddenly can't get out of his mind. What is the deal with THAT?
In short, it's the Attack on Titan/Highlander AU that literally nobody asked for.

Summary
He exhales the blankets of smoke. "Is that so?"
"Yes. You were bright with ideas and beliefs. You knew so much about what you wanted to be and what you wanted. I was lost. Without my independence, my perfect Serenissima Repubblica, my lion amongst the wolves and eagles, I was lost."
Domizio frowns. "Are you still lost?"
Feliciano hums. "No," they say, smiling softly, if not a bit pensive. They look at him, eyes golden like glittering jewels. "I am not."

Summary
Reincarnation is often looked at as a concept... one that cannot be proven correct, but is believed by many people for the sake of security. The idea of having something next that they can look forward to. Knowing that this won’t be it for them, that they will have a second chance to get everything perfect.
For many, this is just a thought sitting in the back of their mind for the pure reason of comfort. Though, over the past few years this has become a reality for many.
And some aren’t so lucky.

Summary
This is a long Tudor-Valois-Habsburg-Medici epic, written with authentic historical detail, plausibly blending facts with fiction.
Exiled from England, Anne Boleyn enters into a political marriage to King François when France is ravaged by the Habsburg invaders. The deadly intrigues of the Tudor, Valois, and Habsburg families and courts are entangled with drama, passion, and wars.
The new chapter is up! The Siege of Rome by King François and his new ally, King Ferdinand, is continuing. How will they counter the Pope’s threat of excommunication? Anne von Cleves arrives in England and meets with Henry VIII for the first time…
Please if you use my ideas, act honorably and give the author credit for them; I am very saddened with the cases of plagiarism I’ve recently discovered.

Summary
So here's the thing: Merle Dixon is dead as fuck. And as it turns out, Beth Greene is the only one who can see or hear him. Which is weird considering she's never met or even heard of this guy, let alone anyone with the last name Dixon. That's her first problem.
The second problem? Merle won't leave her alone. He insists that he will literally haunt her entire family if she doesn't help him resolve some kind of weird conflict concerning his death. And for some reason it concerns his brother, too. So Beth has no choice but to confront and try to convince the living—and extremely stubborn—Daryl Dixon to not only believe her, but also help her.
Admittedly, she has no idea what she's getting herself into. And who could? A fake psychic's cryptic advice, a bunch of brotherly angst, a mysterious Swamp Witch, a deal with a demon, a battle against time for the fate of two souls, and a shit ton of repressed childhood trauma. Oh, and on top of all that... the relentless Merle Dixon and his ever enlightening commentary.
