I rush my writing and I have unoriginal ideas sometimes but I still try.

Buried Emotions by SilverJem5 reviews
Mortals were curious beings. So full of strong, harmful emotions, which sometimes threatened to overwhealm them - regret, anger, resentment, guilt, sorrow, fear and hate. On the other hand, they experienced other ones as well - happiness, love, joy, pleasure, desire and satisfaction. How they balanced them all, he didn't know. Just a number of OC drabbles from my roleplay. :)

In a Dark Time by SilverJem5 reviews
The Unseelie Court was cruel and unforgiving to most, bringing out the worst qualities that others shunned. Kill or be killed. Groups of faeries taunted one another and vied for their place among the thorns. The fae ferocity and menace came out with a deadly grace. It may have seemed scary to some, but to Caspian, it was home. OC set in the Shadowhunter world.

When Tessa, a noble and respected young woman, reaches a suitable age to find a husband, each family wants their son to be the one to catch her heart. Must Tessa fight to find love between two enemies?

The 'Gifted' by SilverJem5 reviews
Tessa lives in a volatile kingdom, under the rule of a tyrant, King Mortmain. Fearing for her life and freedom, and in possession of a valuable 'gift', she is on the run, seeking refuge. Can two mysterious young men, both with their own secrets, help her escape? Set in medieval times, AU.

My Angel by SilverJem5 reviews
Being compared to an angel always made him feel embarrassed. Inadequate. "I'm not an angel," he wanted to say, to anyone who called him one. "I'm far from it." OC story, set in the Shadowhunter world.

Photograph by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
You may think that you have the most ordinary life, mundane and boring, but that fact is simply not true. In fact, how many of us can say that we have done something exactly the same way as another? Not many, I would think. So, this story is a collection of pictures, showing the different worlds and lives all around us. OC story/collection.

Papercut by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
"It was never that he didn't care. In fact, now and then, she really thought he cared a lot. Like the time when she had ingested vampire blood and he stood by her side, helping her through the holy water and pain." Another OC story... Yup. :)

Out of the Smoke, Into the Flames by SilverJem5 reviews
Nearly every time she saw him, it was like putting her hand in a jug of boiling water, before plunging it into icy cold water, and then repeating the cycle. It was almost painful, at times. OC characters, set in the Shadowhunter world.

Heartbeat Mistress by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
"She was a time bomb. Months, days, hours, minutes, seconds ticking by, until the day that she would finally detonate." OC story based on the complications and drama of my OC characters Emily, Khoi, and Amie. :)

Crack Stories For The Soul by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
Written during the late hours at night, these short crack fics revolve around OC characters, and tell preposterous tales that would probably never happen, even if dinosaurs come back to life and eat everybody. Enjoy. :)

Lost At Sea by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
"Maybe they were moving too fast, jumping into the deep end of the pool that had no depth, and they would only keep sinking until they rose again. But then, how far deep would they be already, and how much time would it take to get back to the surface?" Sequel to The Art Of Forgiveness, from Emily's point of view. Another OC story.

The Art Of Forgiveness by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
When you grew up having no one, the act of leaving comes naturally to you. Even when you have a girlfriend that would do anything for you. But although Khoi was smart, he just couldn't understand why leaving as wrong. Why give all of your trust to someone who can take all of your happiness away in a second? Yes, he had much to learn. An OC story.

Fifty Shades Of Shae by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
"She liked control. It gave her power, something she didn't have when her parents were killed and she was sent away, developing a new life, only to be pulled away from that one. She would show them all." The story of Shae finding who she really was, even if what she wasn't what she wanted to be. OC story. Rated M for a reason. :)

Faded Sunsets by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
"Orange. Red. Yellow. Gold. Blue. Purple. She sat in the tree, facing the horizon and waited, watching as the bright sun drifted past her line of sight and the faintest glimmer of golden light disappeared. Fading, fading, fading, gone." Another OC story, better than Raspberries, I promise. :)

Newfound Freedom by SilverJem5 reviews
She was stronger than the stupid curse, of that much she was sure. It wouldn't ruin her life any more. She wouldn't let it. OC characters, set in the Shadowhunter world.

Raspberries by Jillessa Heronstairs reviews
And then there was five. Five people who were so intricately entwined with each other, that you might think nothing could ever tear them apart. Guess what? Anyone who thinks so is wrong. All OCs, set in the Shadowhunter world. No hate, please.

Kaleidescope reviews
RP Drabbles: "I think I realize that it's kind of okay to not be okay." He didn't know why he kept talking, but he could not help rambling, finding it oddly reassuring. "But I'm okay right now. And that's good. Really good. And...I think things get better. I mean, that's what I hope...and that's all we can do, right?"

Dark(n)ess reviews
"He would have said that the last thing he remembered was the blood pooling around him as he gagged from a gash in his throat, but when he finally awoke, he couldn't remember a thing. The first thing he saw, though, was a faerie lifting him by his hand from the sticky, crimson mess and smiling at him widely. 'You're awake, sweetheart.'" BL/OC story

Vividly reviews
"When time wears thin and the books yellow and the violin creaks and the necklace rusts, they hold on tight and don't let go. So they don't risk their chances in fear of falling and they remain there for each other. As friends. As family. As partners. As lovers." Heronstairs, Jessa, Wessa, Jillessa. AU. Modern Time. Enjoy. :)

Infernal Fanfictional Characters reviews
What if Tessa met the Fanfiction version of the Infernal Devices characters? Sure, I might have exaggerated how the people portray the characters as, but oh well. There are sparkly cats, beach parties, and banana leafs. What went wrong? No flames because this is just a joke.

Bleeding Out reviews
"Life is like a flame, I realize early in life. It is either struck with careful precision, or is started by a careless spark. Nonetheless, you live out your life for as long as you can until you fizzle out and burn in a heap of hopeless ashes." Jem learns that life is not only about embracing death, but also about teaching others to respect life.
