Summary
God help me, I was holding a nose, but this was what had to do. I jerked the knife-point across the base, and it peeled away with a solid tug. Not much worse than ripping apart a cold chicken, only rotten, and it was someone's goddamn nose.
I dropped the lump into the burlap sack, hooked it into a loop of my belt, and got to my feet.
"Look at that, you and I each made fifty cents," Huntara said with a chuckle. "Ka-ching!"
1895. Mankind is crucified upon a cross of gold.
Catra, the animal, la putain-de-bete, has nothing to complain about. After the Panic, even perfectly respectable folk would happily beg for a job as a scullery maid at a classy sporting-house like Madame Beatrix D'Ombre's Maison du Grenat Noir. Instead, the lazy mongrel wants nothing more than to leer at the Madame's finest filly: the blonde-haired blue-eyed beauty, Adora Foerstvaettir. Surely someone would pay something for her, but she refuses to cooperate---as if she has any dignity in the first place, ha! So, it's 14 hours a day, every day, until those debts are paid.
Unless, of course, an unlocked door leads to the fall of American democracy?

Summary
Ashley is a teenage girl living in suburban Texas who finds a strange journal in her closet, allowing her to access a mysterious parallel world. While reckoning with the new power this gives her, Ashley has to deal with the resurfacing of repressed feelings and personal demons which come to the forefront after the start of a new forbidden romance, as well as learning to trust in new friends who come together in troubling times to give each other support, comfort, and of course, backup in battle.
Marked as both an original story and a Persona story because the story's premise is inspired by Persona 5 (and the Persona series in general). However, you do not have to be a Persona fan to read this, as all the characters and setting are new and the rules of the Persona universe are re-explained (and straight-up altered in a few places).
Note: This story should only be posted to Archive of our Own and Royal Road. If you find it anywhere else, please let me know.

Summary
**COMPLETE**
Harvey doesn't have much going for him. He's a quiet, nervous fellow who's resigned himself to a dead end life in his forgettable Texas town. It's a pathetic existence, he knows, but survival is the name of the game, and he's willing to endure it if it means no one will hassle him—until he unexpectedly meets a pushy stranger one hot summer afternoon. Something about the guy draws Harvey in, and he quickly decides that some things are just too good to let pass you by. He knows it's a gamble, but hey, a little risk now and then won't kill him. Or so he hopes, anyways. It's amazing how much your life can change in just four days. -

Summary
He was funny and witty and oblivious and mean, and Richie loved him for it. His kiddo-crush blossomed into a more desperate sort of yearning in high school, a silent kind of agony that Richie thought of as pathetic, even now in present day, when grown up Eddie was settling back into his own personality again, like they all were. He'd wanted to be around Eddie all the time when they were kids, had craved his presence like a physical itch that never went away, and now that they were adults Richie wasn't sure if the love he still felt was genuine, or if Richie was doing what he always did - finding a way to hurt himself in the most melodramatic way possible. Eddie was many things for Richie, but most relevant to his adult life was that he'd been the start of a pattern - how to zero in on the most unavailable person, and then break his own heart against the truth that had been obvious from the very beginning.
Richie and Eddie have an affair. Let's get into it.

Baz Pitch is juggling his move from England to Texas, the impending doom of what he's going to do after graduation, and the feelings he's trying not to catch for the infuriating (and adorable) curly haired Texan boy on the swim team.
High School is like a package of homemade tortillas. Or a pool full of violent children.

Summary
“Don’t move,” a deep voice says in her ear as a large, tan hand plucks the slip from her fingers. “Give me everythin’ you got or,” —the man presses the gun more firmly against her head—“Elizabeth here’s not makin’ it home tonight.”
Her whole body freezes, muscles locking up even as her heart beats nearly out of her chest. The man is pressed firmly behind her, trapping her against the counter and preventing her from running if she ever regained the use of her legs. He drops the slip and grabs her shoulder, his forearm resting on her chest and pulling her into him even tighter. Then, he removes the gun from her temple and points it squarely at Mrs. Montgomery’s forehead.
“Every. Thin’. You. Got.” The man bites out each word. “Now.”
Mrs. Montgomery just stares at him, her pale green eyes wide with fright.
For a long moment, nobody moves.
Nobody breathes.
