Summary
*This story is rated "M" (MATURE) mostly for explicit, uncensored and creative language, both spoken and thought. The rest is gray area.*
Life is not a song. Love isn't romantic. Kindness is the worst kind of cruelty. In keeping safe, the danger is greater. In gentling the rage, the fire consumes. Two survivors, both so tortured, awaken each other to so much more than pain in the midst of a vicious, awful world.

Summary
Bucky Barnes and Steve Rogers grew up in the spotlight. As sons of famous political figures and a CEO of a large company, they have been in the limelight all their lives.
They are expected to be perfect, like their fathers and mothers, and stay away from bad press. Forced to pretend everything is fine when it really isn't and be someone they are not. Stripped of freedom and expression. You would think it would get easier as time goes on, but it only gets harder.
Especially when the two boys develop feelings for each other...

Summary
Yuri has decided to take the plunge and get a tattoo for his eighteenth birthday, but doesn't realize his heart will follow.
"Was that the beautiful piece of eye candy from a couple weeks ago?” Ash asked as she walked out of her workspace with a client.
“Yuri? Yeah, that was him,” Otabek affirmed, “He’s actually a really cool guy.”
“Think I could get his phone number?”
“Oh shit!” he shouted, darting around the counter and running out of the shop.
He caught Yuri right before he pulled out of his parking spot. Putting the car in park, he rolled the window down and waited for Otabek to reach the vehicle.
“Would it be possible to get your number?” Otabek asked, “Number one, I need to put it in my client record and number two, if something changes tomorrow I would want to let you know.”
“Sure,” Yuri replied, grinning from ear to ear as he took Otabek’s phone and entered his number into the contacts, “I don’t do phone calls, but text me anytime. Doesn’t have to be just to let me know about tomorrow.”

Summary
When Ben breaks up with her (politely, as gently as he can, but still breaks up with her), Audrey’s immediate focus is on damage control. In order to make things look amicable she needs to move on in a manner that’s unpredictable, something that will give her leverage without making her look desperate. After all, with Ben publicly dating an assortment of people, she has to move on fast so she won’t look pathetic.
That’s where Doug comes into play, which is a trial enough in itself without her grandmother mailing her enchanted mushrooms to add to her beauty routine. Audrey learns far too late that the thing has a life of its own, but somehow it all works out in the end.
Also known as – That time Audrey played at romance and actually got it, explored her sexuality and the world didn’t end, all thanks to a magic mushroom.
It is as dumb as it sounds.
