You are a guessing expert! Four titles correctly sussed out, bringing everyone a sneak peek of a very carefully-concealed secret from A Time to Heal!
Before he even made it up the steps, the door was opened by Mrs. Andris (she’d married and was technically Mrs. Ellison now, but had been Andris for so long that Chase hadn’t yet gotten used to the change; she didn’t mind).
“Chase! So glad to see you. Jacob just got back a little bit ago, he headed up to his room,” she said, drawing him into a hug as he walked in.
“Really? I didn’t see his car, I figured I might have to wait…” Chase replied, glancing out to the street again.
“Oh, he’s driving that big black car now,” Mariana said, her eyebrows shooting up conspiratorially.
Chase’s followed suit when he spotted the shining black car, a metal behemoth with a classic shape and what looked like a lot of power in it. It certainly suited Jacob well enough, but Chase had to wonder. Jacob wasn’t rolling in money; it wasn’t in his nature. “Where did he get that?! ”
Mariana rolled her eyes. “Oh, he got work restoring cars last month. I even called the guy to confirm, he’s letting him drive it around. Didn’t want it to just sit, I guess.”
“Holy shi– crap. Holy crap,” Chase said, a sheepish look coming onto his face while Mariana raised an eyebrow pointedly at him. “Well, I guess I better go give him a hard time about that,” he said, nodding towards the stairs.
She forgave his near-slip and nodded. “I bet he’ll be glad to see you,” she told him with a smile before softly padding back into the front living room where she’d been at work at a desk in the corner.
Chase had his hand on the banister and one foot on the bottom step when he happened to glance at the archway leading into the kitchen. Nothing seemed out of place, so the barest movement caught his eye, so slight he almost thought he imagined it. Chase’s eyes zeroed in on the appliances all the same, or rather, what he thought he saw moving behind them.
This is the .core gang + Vincent who is the main antagonist (name is still debatable) Their story is so convoluted that I could probably spend an hour trying to explain it and even then I'm not done yet... woops!
Then there's Devils Manor, with Emile and Nana! Emile being an aspiring photographer who goes to a manor to take pictures for his portfolio, gets himself trapped inside the manor and has to survive all the ghosts 'monsters' and obstacles while having to deal with, the reincarnation of a clown herself Nana, slowly they learn more about each other as they explore the mansion together.
and the last group is Fini and Rowan (who technically don't have as lore rich of a story but I called it Arrow through the heart! The gimmick being that Fini, who's an equivalent to cupid, is actually aro/ace and does not care for romance and they learn about what love really means and that it's not just about relationships :) Rowan is just the worlds most autistic guy trying to help Fini in their endeavours)

An FYI masterpost of the in-jokes, side-notes and fun-facts of At The Tenth Hour, the Penumbra longfic I'm working on! Will be updated as more of the story comes out. There won't be any spoilers for the rest of the fic until I've posted the whole story.
Want to read the fic? You can find it here!
The Prologue
[To be added when fic is finished; there's a lot for this section, but almost all of it is spoilers!]
Chapter One
The Chet (Ricochet) and the Scope: basically, this duo can take information at any wavelength and send it anywhere. The signal is then passed through galaxies, oftentimes using the reflective atmospheres of other planets to make tight turns. The albedos mentioned in Chapter Two are essentially measures of a planet's reflectivity, and therefore a quantitative estimate of how much information would be lost if that planet was used as a mirror. But you wanna know what it really was? A fetch quest! Love a good fetch quest for the Carte Blanche.
The Solar Councils are split into three sections. The Inner Council governs the inner planets, which are split from the outer planets by the asteroid belt. Basically that means the Inner Council is Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars; the Outer Council is Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The Council of the Belts is the asteroid belt, the Kuiper Belt (which involves Pluto), and also the hand-wavey misc. category.
The "fiddly screw in the bottom-left-hand corner" is 100% a screw that Nureyev has messed with while making a ruckus in the CB's vent systems. He knows they're all pointed directly vertical because he always leaves them that way when he uses the vents. Oh, Nureyev.
The location Tonlap is based on the Cambodian lake Tonle Sap, which has a number of floating villages from which I drew pretty direct inspiration. Touk is the Khmer word for - you guessed it - boat. The customs, like tipping and eyeless fish and such, were from the mind of yours truly.
The name Eris comes from the Greek goddess of discord. She's the one who threw the Apple of Menelaus into the council of the gods and said "that's for the fairest" and then basically kickstarted a war because Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite are just the sorest losers you'll ever meet.
The environment of Susano'o is based on the Nether in Minecraft. Yep, that video game about blocks and weird-looking sheep. Good thing there aren't any Ghasts on Susano'o.
Jet's "near-infinite battery" is made from technology he salvaged from M'tendere's inventions. It's his way of honoring an old friend, and continuing their work. He doesn't quite have the trick of a truly bottomless battery, but he's getting there.
Sure is weird how Eris died, huh?
Chapter Two
The names Cirilla, Regis, and Jaskier are all taken from the Witcher franchise. Is there a reason for this? Not really! I just love the franchise and the names are cool. (Hot take: Regis is a criminally underrated character, though that's probably because he only shows up in the expansion pack for Wild Hunt.)
Pancakes! Guess who used to make the pancakes the family doesn't eat anymore! Yep, it's Juno. Sad.
Sun of the Cerberus - yep, a title I made up for Buddy! Vespa's complement is the Moon of Ranga, because I love titles like that.
The bit about Saturnian Redwings was entirely to highlight how badly Nureyev's always wanted a parental figure. Just...kid Nureyev, hearing about creatures whose parents are with them until they die. I think he'd really like that.
Bicak is Turkish for "knife", and mesec an anglicization of "moon" in Croatian. Ilanga is an anglicization of "sun" in Xhosa. Jade is the same color as the Ruby.
Nureyev's bit about sub-Jovian points is accurate (as far as my limited astronomical knowledge goes)! There's a sub-Jovian point on Callisto's surface, from which Jupiter is always visible overhead. Flashy, isn't it?
The whole bit about the Ionian pet trade was a direct pull from one of Nureyev's lines from, gosh, one of the episodes (Mega Ultrabots, maybe?). Juno's like "have you ever smuggled an elephant from a crowded building" and Nureyev was like "yes" and so I decided I was gonna riff on that. So that's where he smuggled the elephant out. Good for him.
The name Pelias comes from Greek mythology. He's the one who issued Jason's challenges, the ones Jason had to complete to regain the throne he stole. There were three challenges, and one of them was to plant dragon teeth in a field. He was tipped off that the teeth would turn into warriors, so he threw a stone between them to cause them to fight amongst themselves. Inspiration for the brawls at the gala came directly from that.
Selene Emera's name sure was weird, wasn't it? Wonder where those names came from.
