Stories usually start with a "Once upon a time," a simple phrase that loosens the veil between the familiar and the forgotten, leading listeners into worlds safely confined to dreams. But this story was different; it felt like a secret, like shadows pooling at the edges of your vision, waiting to pull you into a night where time doesn’t pass, where mysteries linger, and every whispered word tastes like something forbidden. This wasn’t just ink on a page; it was a door to someplace half-real, someplace where darkness wrapped you close and left you wondering whether you'd ever find your way back.

This world isn’t like that. Instead, it’s a place where time stands still, its hands frozen in a perpetual twilight, neither moving forward nor offering escape. For some, it feels like eternity, an endless stretch of nothingness where the hours blur together, unchanging. But for others—those who wander the shadows or fall prey to what lurks within—it’s a once upon a nightmare, a story where the darkness never relents, where hope is a fleeting, hollow echo swallowed by the night.

In the year 1663, as dusk painted the sky in blood and shadow, the people of London knew better than to linger outside. Each night, as the first stars appeared, every family bolted doors, snuffed candles, and whispered fevered prayers as they hid behind thick walls. Beyond the windows, darkness belonged to those who had vowed to fight it: priest with holy scriptures clutched tight, town braves with sharpened stakes and pitchforks dispatched in blind white anger, sworn to rid the world of creatures who defied mortal law. Blood demons, shapeshifters, and witches—they were all condemned as sin’s cruel agents, hunted as monsters by men who claimed their duty was divine.

As the town’s lamps extinguished, the silence was cut by hounds howling at the scent of something unnatural. The synchronized march of boots clattered against the cobbled streets, while shouts and commands ricocheted off stone walls, penetrating even the thickest household walls and rattling the bravest hearts. Fear and faith held sway in equal measure as the men marched, some clutching crosses while others wielded silver weapons they designed thinking it would pierce the skin of creatures they had never truly seen.

But beneath the city, where no torchlight reached, another world had been hiding—a world of thirsting hunger, of whispers, of sleepless dark eyes. Through the damp and nearly caved-in sewers, slick with grime and infested with rats, a vampire coven had staked their claim. For months, they’d made their den in this forgotten labyrinth of foulness, surviving in silence, drinking only when the thirst grew unbearable. They’d kept to themselves, unnoticed by the townsfolk above, their existence a secret safeguarded by shadows and silence.

Yet tonight, their precarious sanctuary would be breached. The hunt’s new leader, a young man, by the name of Carlisle Cullen, had taken over from his now deceased father and previous Anglican priest, saw the world through different eyes. Only twenty-three, bold and relentless, he refused to limit his search to open fields or deserted woods as his predecessor had. People would whisper that he was smarter, shrewder; that he sought darkness where no one dared look. And tonight, that unyielding curiosity and grim resolve drove him down, down into the labyrinth of decay beneath London where he’d sworn he saw the monsters lurk. A little far behind him, lanterns casting jagged shadows as his men held their breath and followed.

With each step, the air grew colder, thick with the stench of age-old rot and black mold everywhere. Carlisle pressed forward in step much faster than the others with only two other men at his side, determined until he found it: the coven his father had hunted for two decades and never found was but three arm lengths away from them.

Chaos erupted as soon as the men were heard by this coven. They saw their bright burgundy eyes and weakened bodies suddenly stirring with a vicious, desperate hunger faster than their eyes could keep up. Blood splattered the stone as some of the creatures broke away, dragging one man into the darkness while another, a man speaking in Latin, lashed out on the spot, jaws bared, too starved to hold back. And amid the frenzy, she appeared.

She stood apart from the others, more kept and clean, her form delicate yet unyielding, framed by a grey gown that looked lavish, handmade of silk and cotton. Her skin was impossibly clear, like striking stone, and her fathomless eyes gleamed with something between rage and sorrow. Her lips, faded smooth, curled slightly into frown as she observed the slaughter around her, a cruel beauty etched in her features that seemed both ancient and timeless. She was like a statue come to life, a creature of elegance wrapped in death's chill, and as her gaze locked onto Carlisle, the air thickened.

Carlisle, though terrified, refused to flee. Heart hammering, he charged forward, blade in hand, toward one of the creatures—the one who chanted something fierce in Latin, rallying the other swift, chilling figures that blurred through the shadows as they ran away. But then, in one brutal moment, the world tilted; he was thrown to the ground by the man who had gone into a sudden frenzy, his side searing with pain. Blood seeped from his wounds, pooling on the grimy stone, and his breaths came shallow and sharp. He opened his mouth to scream but bit back the sound, fear taking hold as he thought of the townspeople—would they turn on him, claim he was infected, cursed by the vampire’s disease?

As he clawed at the ground, desperate to pull himself to safety, his gaze drifted upward, and there she was. He could do nothing but stare. Her form seemed to emerge from the darkness like a dream or an illusion, her skin radiant as though lit from within. Every inch of her invited him closer, her elegance disarming him, and he forgot, for a moment, that she was one of the monsters he’d been sent to kill.

“Miss!” he gasped, breath shaky, arm outstretched in a futile plea. “Hurry, quick! Get inside or hide before they… before they kill you!” His voice wavered, a desperate edge creeping into his words as he beckoned to her, oblivious to the danger she posed.

Her expression softened, a flicker of sadness crossing her face, almost as if she pitied him. Then she spoke, her voice ringing out like a gentle chime that seemed to drift through the chaos.

“Dear boy, you should not have come here.” she spoke, her tone light and melodic, as though she needn’t draw a single breath to speak. Her words lingered, brushing against him like silk.

He faltered, as tears traced down his cheek from pain and blood loss trickling from his arm and leg, mingling with the dirt. Confusion contorted his face as he fought to understand while staring at her, then all at once, the truth struck him like a blow to the chest. She’s one of them, his mind spinning, his eyes widening with horror. How easily, how effortlessly, he had been drawn in.

“Don’t be afraid,” she murmured, tilting her head, her dark gaze unwavering. “I won’t kill you.”

“Why wouldn’t you?” he spat, a note of anger mingling with the brokenness in his voice. He could feel the cold tendrils of despair creeping in, the bitter realization that he’d been charmed, deceived by beauty. A little hope that she may put an end to his suffering.

Her lips curled into the faintest smile, her eyes glinting with something unreadable. “I’ve been watching you—son of Cullen,” she replied, a strange fondness in her voice.

“You’ve piqued my interest. You dream of becoming like your father, don’t you? But you desire more. You wish to help others, to save them, and yet here you are, hunting us when you’re worth more. Tell me, why do you follow such cruel orders by such a man that cared not for you?”

Gracefully, she lowered herself to his level, kneeling close enough that he could feel the chill radiating from her. He was breathless, the words caught in his throat as he stared into her dark burgundy, fathomless eyes. The scent of blood hung thick in the air, mingling with the faint, sweet perfume that seemed to cling to her skin. Around them, the body of one of his men lay motionless, strewn like a broken doll across the ground, his eyes glazed and empty.

“You know nothing of me!” he shouted, his voice cracking, the burn of tears threatening to break free. He was shaking now, fear and anger warring inside him. All he could hear were the distant cries of his comrades, the faint echoes of those still coming to join the fray. Yet, for all their noise, it felt as though he and this creature were alone, the last souls in a world drenched in blood and shadow.

Her expression softened, her gaze flickering over his face as if she saw past his fear, his hatred, into something deeper. And for a fleeting moment, he wondered what lay behind those dark eyes, what truth might live within a creature so cold, so deathless. But he pushed the thought away, forcing himself to look anywhere but at her.

“You won’t have to suffer for long. At least not like right now,” she said, a frown lingering on her lips. “But I will tell you this—there is a price to every vow, every hunt, every act of mercy shown. And one day, you’ll have to choose what you stand for.”

Too weak to move, he lay trembling, silent cries catching in his throat as the cold of his skin pressed in. She watched him with a sorrowful frown, her eyes shadowed with something almost tender. And then, with a suddenness he could barely comprehend, she swept him up in her arms. The world blurred, and in the span of a breath, they were far from the echoes of shouts and the clamor of pursuit. She lowered him carefully onto the cool grass beside a riverbank, the night air thick with the quiet gurgling of the slow-moving stream.

“You don’t have much time left,” she murmured, voice softened. “Too much blood lost—you’re dying.” She paused, gazing down at him, her dark eyes almost regretful. “But maybe. . .maybe you’ll take this chance and do something good with it, with this second life. There’s light in it, I swear, if you find it.”

Her words were little more than a whisper, slipping through the cool night air like secrets meant only for him. She took his limp arm, holding it gently before lowering her mouth to his skin. Her fangs pierced his flesh with a sharp, burning pain of silver, and he gasped, feeling the warmth of his blood slipping away, mingling with something that felt like ice, binding him to a pain unlike he felt previously. And then, in the blink of an eye, she was gone, leaving nothing but the faintest swirl of mist where she had knelt.

For a moment, he thought he’d dreamed it all—the pain, a fierce burning agony that raced through his veins, igniting his senses, hollowing him out from the inside out. His arm throbbed with searing heat spreading up to the tips of his fingertips and into his heart, each heartbeat like a pounding fire surging through every inch of him. His breath caught in his throat, unwilling to let out, vision blurring as the transformation began its slow, merciless work.

It would take three days for the change to complete, for his body to surrender fully to the chilling darkness now coursing through him. In those days, he would be caught between two worlds, his mind twisting, his memories reshaping, his humanity slipping away like sand through his fingers. And by the time he would open his fresh red eyes, the girl—the one who had granted him this second life—wouldn’t be seen again. It would be decades before their paths crossed again, though the memory of her face, her voice, her lingering sadness, would haunt him through every year of his endless life.

HI LOLA! For nice week, what’s an AU you’d love to do but might not ever write, if there is one?

HELLO sorry once again this is so freaking late, i appreciate the ask <3

there are so many au stories out there i would love to write and don't think i'll ever have the time. my favourite thing is taking au ideas and making them really weird and unhinged 🥲

for tarlos, HAS ANYONE WRITTEN A SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE AU?! the kid is called jonah!!! can we not see the vision??? maybe i need to write this???? you would have to do a bit of work to modernise it like...maybe TK wouldn't be calling into a radio station, but we could do SOMETHING! someone needs to talk to me about this, pronto!

naturally, my dream is to write a twilight au but, like, ironic as hell. i think i'd love for it to be a rwrb one because alex would be the worst bella of all time - he'd wanna jump henry's bones but he'd also be like woah you guys take the vampire thing way too seriously, huh. he'd be like just fkn relax okay, i got a paper cut it's not that deep 💀

meanwhile, henry would be perfect as the self-loathing edward but far less emotionally constipated. he'd also be petrified of hurting anyone 😂 and the royals kinda give weird vampire vibes so i really think they'd fit in. also, we would replace the role of charlie with nora and june who would be like straight up WHAT is going on this strange man keeps watching you sleep don't think we're not keeping tabs on him???? oh he sparkles now??? slay??? also i do feel bea could give alice vibes and philip give stand-offish rose energy. also, there would be no weird quasi-sibling romances going on.

i'm gonna tag @celeritas2997 in this because i feel like we had a chat going on about our strange twilight au. it was also a 50 shades au at some point (but like NOT 50 shades. just ironic 50 shades.) idk man. there's a lot of weird shit that goes on in my head.

Drabble: December 29

Trigger Warnings: Overdose, possible suicide attempt, irresponsible dog ownership.

Yesterday

While most people thought of the week between Christmas and New Years Eve as that week where nothing gets done, for Tristan it was always one of his busiest weeks of the year. As someone who got famous for being famous and who was notorious for blacking out at bars in his youth, the week between Christmas and New Years was his time to shine. He was booked to attend multiple parties throughout the week, and don’t get him started on New Years Eve… When he last checked in with his business manager, he was scheduled to attend ten different parties throughout the night. Something he’d learned over the years was to not drink the week between the holidays. He needed to drink a hell of a lot of tea and water throughout the week so he could keep going on NYE.

This also meant that he did a lot of sleeping in during the in-between holidays week, too. Gremlin kept announcing that Daddy was a vampire, and honestly… she wasn’t half-wrong about that. Still, the thing was… most people knew he slept during the day during this week, so his phone going off before noon was not normal.

“‘Lo?” He mumbled out into his phone, not even bothering to look at the caller ID. He’d been asleep for maybe four hours? If he was being generous with his guess. Honestly, he had no idea when he’d fallen asleep let alone what time it was now. “‘S Tris’an.”

There was a beat before a professional voice responded. “Hey, Tristan. It’s Gloria over at MTV.”

Now that got his attention, he rolled up into a sitting position and scrubbed a hand over his face. Princess was curled up on Eden’s pillow, which had more to do with the fact that she was jealous of how much of Tristan’s time his fiancé took up more than anything else. “Hey, Gloria. We didn’t have anything scheduled today, did we?” He yawned and attempted to wrack his brain for something - anything - that was on his schedule. Hell, he was pretty damn good at keeping his schedule in line these days. A perk of getting older he supposed. 

“We didn’t.” She replied, in a tone of voice that made him think she was annoyed. “Lacey was supposed to come in to do some promo reshoots for Sleepless in Seattle. No one has been able to get a hold of her. You haven’t heard from her today have you?”

Fuck, he wasn’t even with Lacey anymore and still people had the audacity of reaching out to him when they couldn’t get in contact with her. It was annoying as hell, but he supposed that’s what happened when you had a kid with someone – you were bonded together for life. “No, I haven’t seen her since Christmas Day. She was supposed to pick up Mer yesterday, but something came up.” He sighed, and ran a hand through his hair. “I have a key to her place because of Mer. I can go check on her if you’re that worried.”

Gloria gave a relieved sigh. “That would be fantastic, Tristan.” She hesitated for a moment, as though she was debating with herself about something. “If you get there and there’s something that maybe…” She seemed to be fumbling over what she wanted to say, but Tristan got the drift. Hell, he’s sure over the years someone had gotten the same speech about him.

“If there’s anything the network needs to do damage control on, you’ll be my fourth call.” He promised before hanging up.

++

After knocking on the door for a couple of minutes, Tristan let himself into her place. “Hey, Lace. It’s me.” He called out, toeing his shoes off out of habit more than anything else. “You home? I saw your car outside.” He called. “Gloria from the network called. You were supposed to do some reshoots today. You here?”

The living room and kitchen were empty. He barely got a couple of steps towards where the bedrooms and bathrooms were when Puff came barreling out of the back, barking his little head off. Now that he was looking, it looked like Puff had shit in the living room, which wasn’t normal behavior for the dog. “Hey, buddy. Where’s Lacey?” He asked as he scooped the dog up before heading towards Lacey’s room. “Lace, it’s past noon. Where are you?”

As they passed the bathroom, Tristan realized his feet were wet. Fuck. He popped his head into Lacey’s room and dropped the dog in there when he saw it was empty. After the dog was safely out of the way, he opened the bathroom door and froze. The bathtub faucet was running, and there was a good inch of water on the floor. Lacey was in the tub, but it didn’t look like she was moving. 

“LACE.” He bellowed as he turned the faucet off, and pulled his coparent out of the water. Tristan dropped to his knees, Lacey cradled in his lap. “Lace?!” He frantically felt for a pulse. Her body wasn’t cold, but he wasn’t sure if that was because of the water or if it was because she was still alive. He couldn’t find one, but fuck he didn’t know what he was looking for. His hand dropped to her mouth, and everything in him was weeping with joy when he felt the breath against his hand. If his kid lost her mother again… fuck. 

“Oh thank fuck.” He fumbled for his phone and immediately called 9-1-1. “Hi. Yes. My ex was non-responsive in her bathtub. I don’t know how long she’s been in there or what she took, but she’s breathing. Barely, but she’s breathing. What do I do?”

Today

Over the past year, he’s had to have a couple of difficult conversations with his four year old, but this one was probably the worst one to date. He’d practiced what he was going to say with Eden for hours, but he didn’t feel prepared for it at all. Eden said he was going to be fine, but she also thought it was a conversation he needed to have alone with Merritt. Of course she was right, but that didn’t make this conversation any easier. 

“Daddy?” Merritt crawled onto the couch next to him. “How come everyone’s been so sad today? Mommy E was crying, and Mommy Mommy isn’t here to play yet? I asked Tee, but he said to ask you.”

Tristan gave his daughter a wobbly smile before pulling her into his lap. “Mommy E is a little sad today.” He told her honestly. “You know how I had to leave for a long time yesterday?”

Merritt nodded. “Mommy Mommy slept too much, and needed Daddy to wake her up ‘cause that’s what friends do.” It sounded like something Troy must have told her.

“Your Mommy was really sick yesterday. I had to take her to the hospital, and the doctors had to take care of her. She had a lot of yucky things in her tummy, and the doctors had to take them out with a special machine.” He tried to explain. How the fuck did you explain an overdose that may have been a suicide attempt to a child? “They got all the yucky things out, but Mommy is still really sick. The hospital is going to have to keep her for a week, and then she’s going to have to go to a special kind of hospital that doesn’t allow visitors. But Puff is going to live with us while she's gone. That's going to be fun, right”

She blinked up at him. “Mommy’s sick?” She asked in a little voice. “Can we go visit her?”

Tristan swallowed. “No, baby. We’re not going to be able to see her for a long time, but she’s going to be able to call us in a couple of weeks. She’s just so sick that she needs a lot of time to get better.” He tried to explain. Fuck, how the hell was he supposed to explain a psych hold followed by rehab? Fuck.

“Oh.” She was quiet for a long moment. “Like last time?” She slumped in his arms. “Daddy? How come Mommy keeps going away from us?”

He was going to fucking vomit. Fuck. “I don’t know.” He admitted. “But I’m not going anywhere. You’re stuck with me forever.”

Merritt looked up at him with wet eyes. “Promise, Daddy?”

“Pinky swear, Grem. It’s me and you - always.”

“And Mommy E.” Merritt added.

Tristan glanced up to find Eden standing in the doorway. “Me, you, Mommy E, and Tee. The four of us forever.” 

Merritt snuggled against him. “Kay. We’ll make Mommy a card later. Can we watch Moana?”

“Whatever you want.” He whispered out. “Whatever you want.”

The Auspectives

One thing about me is if a game can have a detective, it will. Here’s three across three of the chronicles I play in/run

I.M D’amore - toreador, gentleman detective based in New York CittttAaay

Remington “red” herring - hardboiled noir detective and columbo kinnie based in Seattle. Sire of Harvey Darling

Renata “deadeye” Giovanni - hecata and occult detective, currently based in Salt Lake City

(Their old designs are under the break)

What Four months of improvement does to a homie

First designed them in June. Re addressed them in October. Super happy with the improvement!

[humanperryfic]

I'm just gonna add my trans!Perry fics here (thanks for the rec Liz! <3) because I've written actually kind of a lot of them? Some of them have trans-ness as a plot point more than others. All of them are human!Perry too.

And In This Crazy Life (T, domestic fluff, not-evil!Heinz, kid!Vanessa)

Into the Perryverse (T, multiverse adventure, many Perrys)

fedora/ballgown/you (T, angst, holy shit this is old I kind of hate it now but idk)

Casually Terrifying (T, Lyla and Lawrence give a shovel talk)

It's So Very Obvious (To Everyone Watching Us) (T, this one is a blink-and-you'll-miss-it reference)

once was lost (now i'm found) (T, siblings Lyla and Perry reunite)

Crossing Tracks (T, basically a Sidetracked rewrite if Lyla and Perry actually got along)

Cum-Uppance (E, remote vibrator shenannigans)

Hotblooded (E, vampire hunter x vampire)

glow of lights, glow of hearts (E, soft)

get a bucket and a mop (for this-) (M, fade-to-black)

Sleepless in Seattle (E, post-Meapless in Seattle, Peter/Perry fuckbuddies, they're both trans)

red in my ledger (T, Black Widow crossover)

Back to the Perryverse (T, time-travel sequel to Into the Perryverse that I still haven't finished)

I loved your Trans!HumanPerry fic with the pregnancy mixup, but now I'm kinda curious- What would've happened if at the end, they found up the previously very much Not Pregnant Perry, was now carrying a little baby Doofenshmirtz? How would that shake up?

I'm also curious to know if you've done any other fics with either a Trans!Perry or Trans!Heinz, or if you have any recommendations for such fanfics?

Love your work, stay awesome! ☆☆☆

First of all, thanks for reading <3

So, In this fic I didn't mention birth control, but I have to be 100% honest. I can't imagine someone like Perry the Platypus being ill-prepared, he is definitely on birth control. So, I don't think Perry could've gotten impregnated from what happened in the fic. Does that mean that Perry would never have a baby?It's complicated because, on the one hand, Perry loves kids, he's great with them, and Heinz is a great father, too.  On the other hand, Perry is a secret agent who lives a very dangerous life. He sacrifices himself all the time, just to make sure the world is safe for other people.  Having a baby doesn't really fit into that.

So, if it were to happen, it would be because something, or someone, manipulated the situation.  But I won't talk too much about that because I do sort of want to write that.  But would Perry be a great baby-daddy? Absolutely he would! In my humanAU Perry helped raise Ferb from birth, and he did an amazing job.

As far as other Trans fics go:  I know that Congressisaliens on Ao3 @humanperryfic has some trans-Perry fics Aside from that, I would just check the Trans Perry the Platypus tag or the Trans Heinz Doofenshmirtz tag.

Thanks for the ask, this is super fun!

call that a fade to black, Darling

[lezombra]

I love seeing the GMs of two games Im in (who are also in each other’s games) create an extended vtm universe just for us.

Until they start threatening to plot armor the NPCs from the others game by putting them in their own game, which is set in the future compared to the first game

There’s like four games (two in progress, one on hiatus and one planned) that they can just. keep doing this with

Human Louis accidentally finds himself at a Vampire only party which actually turns out to maybe not be the worst thing.

Shut Up and Wink at Me by @flamboyantommo / 14163 words

Louis Tomlinson might not hate his childhood nemesis as much as he convinced himself he did.

the way the storms blow by rbbsbb / 21649 words

Louis doesn’t have a habit of thinking about Harry’s dick.

That would be weird, seeing as they’re best mates, and they share a flat, and they’ve spent holidays at each other’s family homes. Their friendship hasn’t ever risen to a point where Louis should want to see his mate’s dick, and he’s happy to keep it that way.

Except, all that Louis can think about is exactly that. The size of it. The shape. The amount of people it’s been in.

Maybe it’s the tequila talking, or the fact that Louis’ just recently walked in to an eyeful of Harry taking turns on some slags that he’s never seen before, but. Louis’ mind can’t stop obsessing over the idea.

my heart, in deadly rhythm / 42000 words

Spies!AU in which Liam is the Wade to Louis' Kim Possible, Zayn seduces people for intel, Niall is an expert at blowing things up, and Harry is more than a bit famous in his particular field... or infamous, actually. And Louis? Well, Louis just wishes people would quit trying so bloody hard to kill him all the time.

give my love a four letter name by @levelofcharm / 46627 words

Louis hates Harry because he's a demon. Harry hates Louis because Louis hates him. Things change.

teenage dreams in a teenage circus / 50630 words

The three of them have always been a unit, seamlessly pulling pranks to get revenge and keep life interesting. The last few months of sixth form bring about a lot of changes, however. Gemma refuses to let anything stop her from getting into her top-pick uni, Perrie second-guesses what makes her special, and Louis breaks the most common of friend codes: he falls for his best mate's little brother. A coming-of-age tale rife with sneaking around, late-night vandalism, first times, successes, and jealousy.

And down the long and silent street by whimsicule / 86090 words

Wherein Louis and Harry are on the opposite ends of the social ladder, but their paths still cross on the filthy streets Louis calls his home. The odds are staked against them from the beginning, and even more when Louis' past finally catches up with him.
