- Synopsis: A loosely inspired Little Mermaid AU involving children both curious and rebellious, a very unusual confidant, a dastardly plot against two kingdoms, and a tragic love story from ten years ago. (As created under the name tornrose24 on tumblr. Somehow I'm insane enough to attempt this idea).
- Pairing(s): Egg Casserole, Platonic friendships between George/Lisa and Harold/Billy
- Comments: Beautifully written that is ripe with character development and heartfelt interactions between the characters. The world building for both the kingdom of the ocean along with the 1930s surface is wonderfully made.

- Synopsis: A platonic inspired Tangled AU with friendship, creativity, and magic. Also the usual humor and occasional prank. (Based on ideas shared between princeasimdiya12 and me as tornrose24).
- Pairing(s): Egg Casserole, Platonic friendship between George and Harold.
- Comments: Another compelling story set in a fairy tale setting. The action sequences along with the motivations and personalities of the characters are well written. Be advised though, just like it's original source, it does cover the topic of child abuse and trauma.

- Pairing(s): Egg Casserole
- Comments: An adorable fluff fic that focuses on Krupp's vulnerable side and places him in a new role that contrasts his infamous position.
