The guests had never seen so much blood in their lives. It seeped slowly across the floor, like a storm cloud blowing in from the west, thick and dark and in stark contrast to the black and white tiles.
Four dead bodies already, and the party had only just begun!

The Pieces of Eden, powerful objects that can hold sway against the masses of this world, seemingly turning them against one cause or another.

Templars long sought control over them and the Assassins opposed them. But what if the line between the two wasn’t so black and white? What if the grey in between held an even more frightful truth?

Summary
The older boy, however, appeared effortlessly magical. The golden buttons of his russet tailcoat were undone, revealing the boldly patterned waistcoat. Matching the blue of his eyes, the older boy’s waistcoat glimmered with small golden birds. Delicate hands were folded in front of white breeches. Harry would have made it farther down the outfit if not for a subtle cough dragging him back to the present. Wide-eyed, Harry looked up to an eyebrow-cocked Louis Tomlinson watching him. An embarrassed heat began to develop on the curly haired boy as the conversation amongst the group died down. Those blue eyes continued to stare at him with an unreadable expression. Harry couldn’t pinpoint his exact emotions. He was only ten. Are ten year-old boys not allowed to admire the outfits of other boys? Maybe he shouldn’t stare at other boys.
Or: In early 1800s England, a rich young boy falls in love with another rich young boy.

Summary
“What comes out of a person is what defiles him.”
Deceit. Pride. Slander. Envy. Murder, even.
Dio Brando was guilty of (or at least responsible for) such evils, even at the tender age of twelve when he took his father’s life. Enter Jonathan Joestar, the son of the man who welcomes the orphaned child as a new member of the Joestar family. He is Dio’s opposite in every way possible, and in order to succeed in his wicked ways, the boy knows Jonathan must be ruined and removed. Although it wasn’t quite as simple as needing to ruin Jonathan; Dio wanted to ruin Jonathan. Yet if he took the time to really address it, Dio would realize that Jonathan Joestar was of similar spirit to his mother. Although JoJo was much more resilient, there were similarities in their clean and adoring eyes; they wore the same tender and coy smile when addressing those they loved.
Dio feels the bile rise up in his throat. He didn’t fully understand it himself. After all, he had an intrinsic hunger to tear Jonathan apart and take the whole world away from him. He would take the world away from him. Even if coveting it threatened to devour what little humanity he had. -

Summary
**“How long can we keep doing this?” a whisper breaks from pale lips, a tremble quivering the tones of desperation as impuissance drowned the male in anguish. The walls were painted in red as the colour bled from the wounds that sorrow had dug into the brick, sorrow life had inflicted on the young man as he stared down at the fireplace, a hand gripping his raven locks in distress.
“Just one more.”**
Ciel finds himself meeting the Lord Sebastian Michaelis and his older bastard half brother, Claude. New to the world of desire, Ciel is helpless to Lord Sebastian's advances and finds himself falling ever deeper into unfamiliar territory. But the brothers have darker motivations and Ciel is caught right in the middle of it.

Summary
No fewer than three times by the winter of 1883 had I heard Sherlock Holmes disparage the ways of lovers and their irrational tendencies toward writing letters. With this often and loudly-expressed opinion in mind, I was very surprised indeed to find a stack of unsent, unsealed letters in a drawer in his desk.

Summary
There was one golden rule to being a Time Scientist: do not bring home anything that was a fixed point in history. This meant most artifacts, extinct animals and the like were permissible. Historical figures? Not so much.
But what about an author? Namely, Yuuri’s favorite author, who was murdered in 1887. Could he be saved?
Well. Yuuri was sure as hell about to find out.

Summary
Years on the impoverished streets leave a lone street cat desperate for escape, drawing him to the Magnolia House as his final recourse. The Master of the House is a proficient teacher in all aspects of sexuality and takes delight in introducing his newest courtesan to his erotic kingdom.
His sharp mind dwindles, however, when his student fosters a yearning for him beyond physical intimacy. When logic fails, Erwin loses agency of his own wit in the presence of Levi's foreign devotion.
