Summary
After falling out of touch (which Brad would like everyone to know is just a thing that happens to adults and is not indicative of his own problems regarding communication with other human beings) Brad and Ray are thrown together during a destination wedding for one of their own. Bickering, name-calling, scheming, hijinks and romance ensue.
Inspired by Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, and more recently, the film Anyone But You, which is very silly but very sweet, and made me want to write my own spin for BradRay.

Summary
Ray looks up at all the constellations that light up the sky, and he thinks about the largeness of the universe, and how insignificant everyone is, in the grand scheme of things. That used to scare him when he was a kid, like nothing really mattered because they might as well be specks of dust in the cosmic order of things. But now Ray thinks, maybe it matters more, because of the huge unlikeliness of even existing in the first place. How many things had to go right in the chaos of all these different realms for him to end up right here, on this beach, with his fucked up arm and his best friend’s dog, on this beautiful, awful planet which keeps tearing itself apart?
Time heals almost all wounds. Ray has time, plus a pink plaster cast on his arm.
Or: Ray Person's spectacular Californian winter living on Walt Hasser's futon.

Summary
What if Enver Gortash never left the Hells? How would have the ambitious young man evolved (or devolved 🤭) under decades of infernal influence? This is a reimagining of Enver Gortash's fate—one where he never clawed his way back to the prime material. Trapped in Avernus, and bound to Raphael, he is forced to navigate the brutal hierarchy of the Hells. Can he find a way to power in a society where humans are seen as nothing more than cattle? Or will he be a devil’s plaything forever?

Summary
“There are better ways to go about this if I wish to speak to someone anonymously,” Gale points out. Shadowheart shrugs, winking at him.
“Sure, but this is possibly the most satisfying one,” she says, and fine, Gale can’t argue with that. But still. Such conversations are surface level at best, and transactional at worst. Besides, it’s not in his nature to consume live internet pornography. He has no desire to share such an intimate act with a complete stranger.
“I would really rather see a therapist,” he says.
Fresh out of a messy divorce, disgraced academic Gale Dekarios finds himself biting off more than he can chew when a seemingly innocuous encounter with an enigmatic camboy, Star, leads him down a precarious path of lies, liberation and eventually—love.
