Summary
Shay Cormac could have died, all too easily, in the aftermath of what happened to Lisbon—what he did to Lisbon—or when his own Brotherhood shot him in the back. Despite everything, though, he's still here. Maybe he shouldn't be, but... he is.
It's a shame he never got to meet the Kenways before ending up as a shadow of his former self, though. He certainly doesn't deserve being dragged off to meet them—let alone any of their misplaced kindness—now.

Summary
Reginald Birch is dead.
Edward would feel worse about this if Birch hadn't secretly been a Templar, and also—possibly more importantly—plotting his murder. The only problem is, Edward didn't kill him.
But with means and a motive, he's going to look very interesting to anyone else looking into Birch's murder... unless he finds the real killer first.

Summary
The year is 1888. Jack the Ripper terrorizes London, Whitechapel in particular, and Jacob Frye is nowhere to be found.
...You've heard some of this before. But this time around, there were a couple of extra vampires helping the Frye twins to bring Starrick down—and they're not any happier with the Ripper's reign of terror than Evie and Edward are.

Assassins and Templars and Vampires! Oh My! (Alternate Timelines) by HopeStoryteller, spinanotherstory
Fandom Assassin's Creed - All Media Types, Vampire: The Masquerade
28 Jun 2026
Summary
We made an AU of our own damn AU because we got too sad about the original version of events in one of the fics and wrote something a liiittle more canon-divergent than we normally do. This has effects down the line which is why we need a separate series.
...And then we made more AUs of our own AU. These things happen, see series notes for which ones are connected to each other (fics that are related will be next to each other though.)

Assassins and Templars and Vampires! Oh My! [Chronological Order] by HopeStoryteller, spinanotherstory
Fandom Assassin's Creed - All Media Types, Mage: The Ascension, Vampire: The Masquerade
19 May 2026
Summary
As far as the rest of the world knows, Desmond Miles died on December 21st, 2012. It's as much of a surprise to him when he wakes up after the end as it would be to anyone else—other people who are supposed to have died way before him, and clearly didn't, excluded.
If someone told Desmond before he got himself kidnapped that vampires were real, he would've laughed and asked how much they had to drink, because vampires fell into the same mental category for him as the Templars. If someone told him the same thing after that, he still wouldn't have believed them, even now that he knew firsthand that the Templars were all too real.
It's kind of hard to discount the truth when it's staring him in the face and also looks way too much like his ancestors. They all should be dead.
But here's the thing: Desmond should be too.

Jack-o'-Lanterns in July by HopeStoryteller
Fandom 逆転裁判 | Gyakuten Saiban | Ace Attorney
28 Apr 2026
Summary
We are the jack-o'-lanterns in july
Setting fire to the sky
Here, here comes this rising tide
So come on!Ace Attorney fics loosely connected to one another and set in the same particular iteration of canon, though most of them probably won't do much more than reference other fics in the series. Canon compliant except where they aren't. Probably most of these are going to have titles from song lyrics. Everyone is some variety of queer because I said so and because I, too, am incredibly gay.

Summary
Fate can be a fickle thing, and just because a prophecy is written in the Scrolls does not mean it is set in stone. Even the smallest thing can affect the flow of the future, like an Eye of the Queen traveling across the continent and delivering a single letter. One stone in the stream is all it takes -- to bring two people together, to bring about peace at last... and to ensure that Tamriel's hard-earned freedom lasts, even for centuries to come.

“Where are you going?” Will murmurs, the words muffled. His arm settles over James’s chest as if to keep him to the bed.
“Nowhere yet,” James replies. Hours, he thinks, closing his eyes: they have hours.

Actually, he can hazard a guess at that last one.
