Chapter One | Chapter Two
Once a month, the box in the center of The Glade came up with fresh supplies and a new face to add to our numbers. Every month, I hoped that this Greenie would be another girl so that I could stop thinking that the people who sent us here had made a mistake. Every month, I was disappointed and I became exceedingly curious about my purpose in The Glade. Was I even supposed to be here?
Being the only girl wasn’t so bad, I guess. I had my pick of the guys, except, I’d already picked and being the only girl meant that there were rules. I was off limits, whether I wanted to be or not. The Gladers took their original three rules very seriously and the punishments were harsh. The fourth rule about me was not an exception. And of course, I had fallen for The Glader who cared the most about the rules. He never broke them, not unless he was sneaking into the Deadheads to meet me, anyway.
I leaned against the doorframe of Frypan’s kitchen as I watched Gally boss the other builders around. Frypan and I had just finished cleaning up from breakfast and were taking a short break before we started making lunch. Frypan had wandered off to take his break somewhere else, but I had the perfect view of my Glader from where I was. It was hard to miss him though. He was tall and mostly muscle, something he was well aware of. I grinned at him and blew a kiss when he looked my way. He glanced around to make sure that none of the other boys had seen and then shot me a glare, shaking his head, which I giggled at.
We both turned our gazes to the center of The Glade when we heard the unmistakable sound of the box rising though. Then everyone in The Glade started to make their way to the box, where we’d wait until the box came up and the new greenie would inevitably freak out. Then all the supplies would be moved to their respective places and we’d all return to our work.
I pushed my way through the crowd to stand next to Gally at the edge of the box. As we waited, I subtly brushed my hand against his and when I glanced up to see his reaction, he was smiling slightly. It was a rare sight and when one of the other boys gave him a questioning look, he scowled at them and barked out, “What’re you looking at, Shank?”
The box jolted to a stop beneath the doors. The boys pulled open the doors and we all looked down into it to see our new Greenie, shielding his eyes from the light. Gally was the first to drop down into the box. Admittedly, they probably should’ve sent Newt in first because although I couldn’t hear what Gally said, I could see the expression on the Greenie’s face and he looked terrified. Gally was none too gentle when he picked the new boy up and tossed him onto the dirt outside the box either.
The boys crowded around the Greenie, pushing and shoving each other out of the way to get a better look. I’d already seen him though and I kept out of the fray. He was dark-haired and dark-eyed with a tall lanky build and a very confused look on his face. I felt kind of bad for him, the boys seemed to forget how horrifying and confusing their first day had been as they all leaned over him. They apparently couldn’t remember what it was like to wake up in a box unable to remember their own name and then be surrounded by four dozen people that they’d never seen before in their life. Well, they couldn’t remember ever seeing them in their life before, because they couldn’t remember their life before The Glade. They woke up in a box and it was basically like their first day on Earth.
The Greenie was suddenly on his feet and he shoved past the boys closest to him, making a run for it. He was doing pretty well, well enough to be a runner, until he tripped over his own feet and toppled to the ground, rolling a few feet before coming to a stop. The boys all laughed at that and I stifled a laugh myself. Poor guy.
That was when the Greenie seemed to notice his surroundings and we all watched as he pushed himself to his feet and spun around, finding nothing but the giant walls in every direction. They took his moment of stunned immobility to grab him and throw him into the pit, where Alby went to speak to him alone. Then the rest of us started to put the new supplies away and head back to work.

The Maze Runner Rewrite Masterlist
This rewrite follows along with the movies closely until the end of TMR/beginning of TST, where The Reader starts to have a larger role in the decisions that are made and the events that play out. TMR starts with an established Gally x Reader, but starting in TST the reader begins to build a relationship with Thomas, though they don’t actually have a concrete relationship status until TDC.

Someone said "Are you really so stupid to think that Africa has the same technological advances as us? If they did they would probably have clean water and not live in houses made of sticks and mud. Get over yourself and stop being so ignorant."..... Below is a tiny collection of images of the Africa they refuse to show you..
ches
I’m sorry you’ve been made to believe that the whole of Africa is poor, I really am..

House of Cards
Masterlist
Chapter One: "Welcome to the Beach"
Summary: Mina arrives at the beach.
Warnings: kidnapping? betrayal?
My eyes adjusted slowly, making me question what I was seeing. He was the very last thing that I had expected to see here. And I couldn't stop myself from saying his name, it came out of my mouth in a rush with the breath I'd been holding on my way to what I was sure would be my death. “Suguru?”
“Mina?” He hadn’t expected me either, his eyebrows were knitted together in confusion.
“Oh, you know her, Niragi?” questioned an amused voice. I looked toward it, finally realizing that there was someone in the room other than Suguru Niragi. The other man looked intrigued as he glanced between the two of us and murmurs broke out amongst the other people in the room. I looked around, trying to process what was happening. There were a lot more people in the room than I had initially thought. And every single one of them looked suspicious of me and very intimidating.
“We worked together,” offered Suguru, his tone suddenly apathetic. I glanced back at him. That wasn’t the whole truth. But the surprised look had vanished only to be replaced by something else. Something wrong. This wasn’t the Suguru that I knew. Now, I noticed that the difference wasn’t limited to his facial expression. How had I even recognized him so easily? His whole demeanor had changed in an instant.
“That's all?” questioned the man, arms folded over his chest and head tilted to the side as he sized Niragi up. He didn’t believe it. “Need I remind you that we don’t have secrets here at The Beach, Niragi?”
Niragi angled his head to look down on the other man out of the corner of his eye, a look of contempt on his face.
“She’s a writer,” he scoffed, rolling his eyes. The other man still appeared skeptical. Niragi let out an exagerated sigh. “Fine, I took her to a love hotel one time. Once! That was all.”
I looked at him in disbelief. He was lying to them or he’d been lying to me. My chest hurt at the thought of it. At the thought that all the things that I’d been feeling hadn’t been mutual. It was like something inside of me was being slowly pried apart. Had my hands not been bound behind me, I would've been unable to stop them from reaching up in an attempt to grasp my heart in an attempt to hold it together. I’d rather he had just told me outright that he wasn’t interested in anything more than a fling.
My eyes met the eyes of a blond man at the back of the room as I looked away from Niragi. While everyone else had been watching Niragi, this man had been watching me. I had no doubt that he’d seen some kind of reaction from me. The corner of his mouth twitched before he gave me a knowing smirk. I looked away quickly.
Niragi said nothing else and left the room without even glancing in my direction. I watched as he disappeared behind the closing door. I took a deep breath before I turned my attention back to the man who’d questioned him.
“I’m sorry. Can someone explain what’s going on?” I asked. This was the second time in a week that my entire existence had been flipped upside down.

House of Cards - Masterlist
Warnings: Adult Themes, Violence, Abuse, Toxic Relationship, Character Death, Language
Author's Note: Hello, all! I've been away a while. But I wanted to share my new project. This is a lot different from the things that I've written in the past. I've previously written romance and happy endings. Please do not expect either of those things from this story. I don't normally write things this dark, but the show and manga have inspired me. I haven't written in a while so I'm happy to have the inspiration and this has been sitting in my WIP folder since I watched the show last year. With all that said, I'd like to add that I in no way endorse the dark themes of this story and the negative aspects of the relationship between the MC and Niragi.
Summary:
When Mina found herself in Borderland, she thought that everything she'd known was gone. When she discovers The Beach, she learns that not everything is gone. One thing from the life she knew has made it into this world. Suguru Niragi. But in this world, he's different. Distorted somehow.
When Mina shows up in Borderland, Niragi has to make a choice between her and the version of himself that he has created to survive in his new world. He wants to choose her, but he's built such a strong persona for himself that it's taking over. He has become the monster.

Prologue:
Chapter One: Welcome to the Beach

I live my life under the basic principle that people know their minds, bodies, genders, and orientations better than I do so I just take them at their word when they say they are a thing.
