Thinking you're the only one like you is the most suffocating and lonely feeling. Lonely. This was how Emeka felt until the Adafo family came for summer holidays in his tiny village. It was the first time in years the Adafo family have been in Nigeria since they relocated to the U.K, and like every other case of 'obodo oyibo' the village was filled with rumors, gist, and gossip about the family in the mansion behind the eight feet gates. By chance, Emeka becomes close friends with the family's only daughter, but it didn't take time at all for him to find himself in a difficult situation with her eldest brother.

After a devastating disease wipes out most of humanity, 16-year-old Cameron MacRiada must survive alone when he misses his scheduled evacuation. ***** "0800 hours. It's been four days since I stopped going to school. Seven since the last teacher stopped showing up though, so I reckon there's not much point any more. My dad was raging - he thinks that teachers have a duty to their students or something. I did point out that their contracts probably didn't include an apocalypse clause, but here we are." Three years after the Infection first ravaged humanity, mankind is on the brink of extinction. Society is collapsing; resources are exhausted; the British Sanctuaries are overwhelmed by the constant influx of evacuees. And in the midst of the chaos, a secluded boy in the Scottish highlands decides to document his isolated lifestyle as he awaits evacuation. Who knew the apocalypse could be so fucking boring? ~a story told in sound~

Lilly Martin is not model-material, but Adam Hiller is, and it turns out he likes to wear dresses when nobody's looking, and is in fact not a 'he' at all. When their school announces a fashion designing competition, Lilly decides to kill two (or three) birds with one stone and: 1) Win the fashion competition by making the best dress Edgley High has ever seen. 2) Help Adam (who prefers Eve, thank you very much) come out as the girl she is. 3) Annoy the bigots.

Six lives. Six hearts. How many secrets? How many scars? How many times do their paths have to accidentally cross before they realise maybe it's not just another crazy coincidence?

tyler: woke and pissed. no filter, you may be offended. [this mostly deals with issues in america. if you come here with some "well, white people are oppressed in blah blah blah." i will put you in your place about derailing topics. your country wouldn't go into war and become allies with someone else when they don't even have the necessary tools for their own survival, would they? think of this like that.]
