Summary
The deer were only a mild sort of annoyance for the better part of your first summer alone in the cabin.
That was, until it showed up on the other side of the fence line.
The thing that was so clearly not a deer, but looked like one and never crossed the property borders mother had marked with little mason jars buried under the boundaries of the yard, stared at you with eyes redder than freshly spilled blood or the moon on harvest nights. You knew from the moment you saw the creature that it was not what it seemed to be, that it was one of the old things mother had spoken of before her passing. Older than the hills themselves and imbued in its very existence with the power of the Green.
---
Or, there are things that hide in the trees. Older than the sky, or the soil, or the hills. And they are waking.

Summary
In 196 AC, Lord Elmure Tully fielded a blow in the Redgrass Field that would have cost Prince Baelor Targaryen his leg, if not his life. Ten years later, the Targaryen dynasty rewards this loyalty by proposing a match between Elmure's eldest daughter, Maeve, and the widowed Prince Maekar.
But Maeve, whose blood has always run hot, finds the constraints of her new life in the Red Keep stifling, her stepchildren odd and antisocial, and her new husband strangely hesitant to frequent her bed. How lucky, then, that gallant Prince Baelor seems so fond of her...
It's only an innocent friendship. What could go wrong?

Summary
You take your eyes off the figure for just a moment to glance at the frame door that leads off the porch, your frenzied brain cooking up a million and one solutions that all suddenly hinge on that door having some kind of lock, and when you look back it's started to move. Slow, purposeful steps that crunch in discarded twigs in the underbrush. The white thing remains of a height with you and gives the impression of floating, and you think, somewhere in the tangle of sensations and panic that is your thought process right now, Oh, fuck, that's Jason.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crystal Lake is not typically synonymous with "safe", but there is a cabin nestled in the woods where you are exactly that. It's just you, your guard dog Heracles, and miles and miles of forest between yourself and the rest of civilization. You can deal with bears—it's people you have a problem with. Only the news reports and local legends haven't been stretching the truth as much as you hoped, and when Jason Voorhees decides it's your time to die, the life you've built for yourself here will be forever changed.
