Fifteen years ago, her family was torn apart by powers no one understood. Now, she's taking her own accidental powers on a quest for revenge-but that means managing her fracturing family, shifting morality, and unexpected feelings for the dangerous vigilante training her.

Meet the main characters of SIRENSONG (114k), which follows Ellie, a traumatized rookie superhero takes her accidental powers on a quest for vengeance alongside her optimistic twin Theo and the Shadow of Emerald City, the dark-yet-alluring vigilante who's agreed to train her.

#questpit #SF #NA #Q
Meet the Main Characters of SIRENSONG ELLIE Art of a woman with short, wavy brunette hair wearing a black leather jacket, a tshirt and jeans, with silver glowing eyes. Sharp-tongued and disillusioned, hating the system and her job within it, she stumbled into her mind control powers by accident - but now they might be the only way to find the man who tore her family apart. Only, vigilantism is harder than it looks, and as the crime and corruption of Emerald City threatens her most steadfast relationships, she's also got to contend with her all-consuming need for revenge and those pesky unexpected feelings for a vigilante with plenty of secrets of his own. Fun Facts: Full name: Eleanor Diana Montgomery Lives on a diet of caffeine and inner rage Can play guitar Her short temper often gets her in trouble Song: Sympathy Magic, Florence and the Machine THE SHADOW OF EMERALD CITY Art of a muscular, blond man wearing intricate black armor. His face is half covered by a black, fanged mask. His mission is simple: end the corruption rotting at the top of Emerald City, one greedy billionaire at a time. Bring justice for the disadvantaged and the unheard. Make sure nothing gets in his way - not even himself. But then he meets a stubborn, fearless new superhero who slowly begins to get past his broody exterior, sparring match by sparring match. Problem is, his identity is a massive secret lurking beneath the surface, and uncovering it may threaten the very mission he's dedicated his life to. Fun facts: Full name: scratched out, says NO. Looks like he could kill you, could actually kill you Mostly fluent in half a dozen languages Has a soft spot for cats (and girls who aren't afraid of him) Song: Dust Bowl Dance, Mumford and Sons THEO Art of a man with shaggy brunette hair, gold eyes, and a humorous smile. He is wearing a blue windbreaker with gold buttons, a button down shirt, and khaki pants. Full of sunshine, optimism, and deeply repressed trauma, he tries to live life on the brighter side - he has to, or else. Filled with a need to help people, he wants to keep everyone safe while bringing the man who tore his own family apart to justice. Not even his teleportation is enough to keep her from leaping into danger on his behalf, and he can't do anything but watch as new relationships put her in a brand new kind of danger. Between his morals, his goals, and his family, something has to give eventually - something not even he can outrun. Fun Facts: Full name: Theodore Apollo Montgomery Just as chaotic as his sister, but better at hiding it Can play drums Inner core of steel Song: I'm Still Here (Jim's Version) by John Rzeznik

Editor’s Guide To: The Things We Run For YA Drama Mystery with Romance 94k Words Represented by Amanda Wooden at SBR Media 4/13/1996 Run. What a powerful instinct. Emma Bridge had wanted nothing more than to be with her two siblings in a home that felt safe, but those wishes never came true. With nothing left to lose, Emma runs away from the spotlight of the Hills to a small town across the country, but this new home is anything but the safety she’d been after. The weight of the world has fallen on her shoulders, and she can’t carry it alone. But with her old name in every police station and her new name on every tongue in town, she’s not sure who she can trust to help carry the burden. What we know: -Runaway in Hiding -Fake Identity (turned real identity) -Mental Health Rep -Genderfluid and Pan Rep -Found Family -90s Small-Town Nostalgia At the bottom, the name Emma Bridge is crossed out and replaced with Peyton Freys 6/23/1996 “The Hills have Eyes” There’s a collage of pictures. Picture one is of two people, one sitting on the counter with the other in front of them. Picture two is go a small-town street with snowy homes to either side. Picture three shows a row of high school desks. Picture four shows a box of police evidence. Picture five shows a group of kids sitting behind an abandoned building. Picture six shows someone flipping off a police car. Picture seven shows a paper with the words “Child Custody Hearing” printed on it. The last picture shows a boy sitting at a school desk, writing something into a notebook. In the bottom right, it says Going on submission in 2026

A middle school style how to paper of how to break a curse. Text: 1. Discover magic exists- panic. 2. Become accused of casting a curse, get locked up, panic some more. 3. Escape with a necromancer and techno mage that probably don’t know what they are doing. 4. Let a map of riddles boss you around. 5. Sail south and pick up some new friends. 6. Get saved by a capybara. 7. Fight some cryptids. 8. Meet your great great great grandfather.(P.S he’s the worst.) 9. Concur your fears and claim the amulet that can break the curse. Yay! 10. Get betrayed. Boo. 11. Break the curse anyway! Yay! 12. Unleash a brand new probably as bad curse. Boo. 13. Repeat steps 1-12 The end.

...see what happens next in THE BANSHEE OF CLAN MURTAGH, a gothic horror romantic tragedy complete at 71,000 words.

#UnhingedPit #Q #H #R #A #Historical #Gothic
Mockup of a reddit post: AITA for predicting my aunt will die? The other day I [M20] heard the banshee, meaning someone in my family will die, and obviously it’s going to be my aunt. She’s pretty sickly and I can’t imagine any other option. But when I told my family, they called me a disgrace. Naturally I tracked down the banshee and demanded answers, but she was totally useless and couldn’t tell me shit, so I stole her comb. Sweet revenge. But I didn’t anticipate that she’d try to get it back… and when I tried to get her out of my bedroom (hello, personal space???) I accidentally touched her and she had this weird seizure. Now this creepy, undead (but lowkey hot) chick is insisting that “my touch brings her memories back” and “she craves more”. I can’t lie, I’m tempted (just because I want to find out who’ll actually die and prove my family wrong… no other reason). If my dickhead cousin finds out about this I’m totally screwed. AITA?

EDUCATION 2305-9 08 Wilshire High School 2295 - 2305 Literally every school in the city Reputation for Murder So... I might have accidentally killed a classmate on my first day at school which subsequently led to the burning down of my whole school with all the teachers and students inside - conspiracy maybe?!? Reputation for Getting Kicked Out Yeah. so. I have a bad habit of speaking my mind without thinking and Ive been kicked out of every single school I've enrolled in. Ran out of schools to attend and my parents were forced to send me to an all green school. Spoiler: it doesn't end EXPERIENCE Now - /٥ 8 The Streets NOW-②% The Streets Wanted I should say... I now have this ability to shift into different biological sexes and also survive in the toxic sun so I'm like super important to the scientists right now. Friend I met my first friend last week and we're already inseparable! She's a little different but so am I. It's kind of nice to have a friend who understands what's it's like to be an outcast. Just hope she doesn't try to eat me! Or maybe I'd like that?
