Hey, everyone! Happy Halloween! This family/horror oneshot was something I've been working on on-and-off for the past year and a half or so. I finally got down to it to finish it for THIS year instead, and here we are!
This story requires NO Hands of Creation knowledge. However, reading it with...
~ * Do Psychic Cats Dream of Electric Sheep? * ~
First, Espurr was shoved into the body of a pokemon and hurled into the deep dark woods. Then a voice of life told her she had to save a world she knew nothing about. Then, pokemon started getting hurt. Now her only chance against school bullies...
The pokemon centre out west, where Mistralton City ends and the expanse begins. It’s the last stop between the farmlands and forests of Unova and the deserts of Kalos and Orre; the gateway to thousands of miles of barren cornfields. It stands all on its own, at the very outskirts of the nearest...
hello everyone! this is vivarium, a oneshot midquel of hunter, haunted that takes place in the middle of chapter 14. i'm putting it in its own thread to keep things more organized.
if you're wondering whether you can read this if you haven't read hh, the answer is "sure, but don't expect...

Author's note: This is a one-shot that I originally wrote in 2009 (well, I'd written an older draft of one scene of it before that that I only ever posted on one forum), which I've been fiddling with on and off of late. If you've read the old...
Hey all! This was my entry for the Thousand Roads 2022 Oneshot Contest, Mischief and Malice, where the theme was "Villain POV". To my great delight, I ended up in third place, making this the first TR contest that I've officially placed in! Keeping in mind how many talented authors were taking...
Look back into your memory for me: Cotton candy, strands of sugar pulled lighter than air, grains hot and thready from being pressed into heated metal machinery. Like fairytales settling into life as they whirled around a paper cone. Your eyes sparkled about as meaningfully as the excited babble...
Well, hello there! Turns out I’m not completely done with fanfic (just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in). I ran out of inspiration for original stuff so I ended up coming back to the other Jung WIP I was working on alongside Teamwork Makes the Dream Work. I think I started work on...
NOTE (August 19th 2022): Made minor edits to Part 1. Nothing plot-relevant, just some dialogue and prose.

Yes! I managed to get this posted in time after all. It took a sprint of over 1.3k words on the last day, but it was worth it.
So, this is that "vampire story" I've been talking about...
“Your friends are in the walls.”
When I first heard it, I barely paid attention. At this point, conversation’s so saturated with inside jokes, idioms, pop-culture references that it’s easier to laugh along with the joke than admit I have no idea what you’re saying. You get to think you’re...
EDIT (5th Sep 2023): A few weeks late to this announcement, but the thread to the sequel story is now up! If you finished HH and liked it, start reading. Otherwise, keep your paws off that link, because there are HH spoilers there!

It has arrived. The subject of many a meme. The story the...
It's finally here - the oneshot that bridges Seiren and Hunter, Haunted. This was actually originally written as not one but three oneshots back in 2017, but I wanted to rewrite it as both my writing skills and the stories sandwiching it have since evolved and changed.
This story does contain...
Summary: We have few facts about this place, all strange: the edges of the cave system are expanding, and no one who has entered has returned. But a creeping vine always moves towards the light. "You're changing too, aren't you."

NOTE: This is a discontinued version - you can find the newer, current version of the fic here!
“Every end opens the door to a new beginning.”
When I'm done, you won't remember anything about this conversation, or who you were before. Maybe that's for the best. I need a pure soul, a blank...
Author’s Notes: Hey, Neb here! Here's another import from Serebii, polished a little bit before posting to this forum. This takes place in a universe of fics called The Manifold Curiosity, where there are different fics that standalone from each other in story, but overlap in some way in terms...
