    Summary

    Jonny isn’t stupid. He knows everyone hates him.

    He doesn’t know why they would think anything else, not when all he does is tell them to fuck off and shoot them and be an annoying bastard.

    When Brian pitches the idea of Crew Night over one of their rare dinners where they have all gathered, he tries to slip away. They won’t want him there. Nobody ever wants to spend time with him. They just can’t get rid of him.

    Summary

    Jonathan Sims is a first time English professor at a lower tier university in London who absolutely hates poetry. Unfortunately, he has been put in charge of a poetry class. Despite his reluctance, he vows to make this the most comprehensive poetry class he can. His students will EARN their grades, and he will accept nothing less than perfect form! Half rhymes get half marks!

    Martin Blackwood is a former employee of a tea shop who adores poetry. After spending several years working part time jobs to support himself and his ailing mother, he has managed to scrap together enough funds and a high school equivalency diploma so that he can take some courses and get a job where he won't have to be on his feet all day. Delighted to have room in his schedule for one elective, he naturally pursues a poetry class. Unfortunately, his new professor hates the subject. And he seems to hate Martin, too.

    Then Tim decides to get the whole class to write increasingly sappy love poetry about their professor to hand in as assignments for a prank and despite refusing to take part, somehow this still makes things worse for Martin specifically.

    Summary

    Martin loves his job as a professor of English Literature at UCL. If it wasn't for his pretentious asshole of a colleague Jon Sims. Their already less than cordial working relationship only grows worse when they are forced to share an office. Of course, when Jon needs someone to pretend to be his boyfriend at a literature conference, Martin is the only other person in their department going. A deal with high stakes and unforeseen consequences is struck.

    Or: 5 times Jon and Martin hated each other and 1 time they didn't
