Summary
Teenagers just love to say "New school year, new me!" every time August comes, and their summers full of no responsibilities come to an end. Most teenagers lie when they say it, too. But not Kwon Jiyong. Nope. Because, you see—Kwon Jiyong was a bad child. A bad child who did what he wanted, when he wanted to, and didn't give a shit what anybody else had to think of it.
But that was until his father had enough of it.
Now rolling into senior year, Jiyongs practically a changed man. A changed man with the same killer fashion sense, of course. He’s kind of hoping to lay low, get the final year of high school over with: but things are never easy.
Because then enter Choi Seunghyun.
Aka a slow burn of GTOP in the alternate universe of a high school setting! It’s dramatic, I will say. And may I add Hs AUs are my specialty? Yeah. Just wanted to throw that in there heh.

Summary
Giyuu Tomioka was supposed to be the quiet one.
Good grades, silent stares, always home before curfew. But that was before middle school ended. Before his mom’s overdose. Before he met Douma. Before the piercings, the drugs, the screaming, and the razor blades hidden in the bathroom drawer.Now he’s spiraling, and no one knows.
Well, almost no one. Sabito is starting to see it—the burns, the lies, the pain. And their father, Muzan, who’s always been a stone wall of power and fear, is about to realize too late that grief doesn’t just go away.In this Thirteen-inspired 2000s high school AU, trauma doesn’t hide forever. Not when it’s bleeding through your sleeves.
Featuring:
— Giyuu as a self-destructive trans teen
— Douma as the devil on your shoulder in lip gloss
— Sabito as the only one trying to hold everything together
— Muzan as a broken father who never learned how to love right
— And a cast of Hashira in the background who might be the light Giyuu needs⚠️ Heavy angst. Emotional whiplash. Healing isn’t linear. ⚠️

Summary
Gale didn’t do things like this.
He couldn’t resist. He hovered his mouse over the little advertisement that danced in the corner of his screen. These popped up occasionally while he was busy surfing the web for porn…and they were typically far from his taste. This one however…it seemed too good to be true.

Summary
“I’m a bad person,” Kevin suddenly stated, a confession of sorts he’d muttered a thousand times before. He slowly dug his spoon into his cup, the soft crunch of plastic cutting through ice splitting the silence as his tired words hung in the air.
Radford gently bumped their shoulders together again. “You’re not a bad person, Kevs,” he answered earnestly, picking up another scoop of his own water ice. “Bad people aren’t sorry when they make a mistake.”
Oh God there’s an OMARI AU now

Summary
“There are no laws to protect us! No one has any idea what we’re doing, no one cares, I could die tomorrow, and no one will miss me! We have the backs of the Justice League, but who has ours?”
_The rise of the superhero age on Earth has brought forth a lot of questions regarding the ethics and legalities of what it means to be Earth’s last defense. The establishment of the Justice League of America brings these conversations to light, and gets the public used to the ideas of Batman and Wonder Woman being seen on the street. Sometimes it’s useful, Superman stops the destruction of Metropolis at least once a week. Most people trust and depend on the new foundation of heroes. Unless you find yourself to be in the Robin trying to talk to civilians and get them out of dangerous situations. Or Speedy trying to get into a club to chase down a pickpocket. Even Wonder Girl isn’t immune to a bad math test at 10 am after a night of patrol. No one really knows what to do with young heroes. Without guidance or proper nurturing, the teens will find ways to have the life experiences that they need to develop into proper members of society, weather as civilians or as the new heroes of tomorrow.

Summary
“You tried to jump off the bridge and you want to be a poet?” James laughed. “I’d say you’re halfway there. You know what happens when you know so much about the world like that. You go insane with the realness of it all, just like Plath.”
One day in the small midwest town of Blessing, Minnesota, nineteen-year-old Regulus stands on the edge of a railing in pouring rain, ready to jump, when he hears somebody shout from the bluffs. The voice belongs to James, a man just as deeply broken as Regulus is, who convinces him to take another path. With James' insistence, they slowly start to thread a life together, string by string, and Regulus finds himself, at last, wanting to live.

Summary
Martyn doesn’t mind the old trains. The roar and whine like a struck drake retreating to its cave, the deep sweaty musky staining the bland pattern upholstery that is trying so hard to seem artsy, and the floors are always weirdly sticky. It’s grimey and a little rough around the edges, just like he likes. But best of all, it jostles and shakes like a ship on stormy waters.
And that gets him into situations like this.

There’s no real glory in having the biggest, fattest crush on the one guy the whole school agrees is a complete scumbag, but the heart wants what it wants, and Yelena wants him bad. Which is, honestly, so embarrassing. She has so many things to do, homework piling up on her desk, a whole cheer routine to learn by the end of the week, her mom needs her to clean up the attic – fuck, her dad asked her to take the car to the mechanic two weeks ago – and somehow, Yelena decided that the best way to spend her Tuesday night is stalking the only boy she knows who doesn’t give a crap about her.
