Genevieve "Gen" Brown was never supposed to fit into Briar University's chaotic hockey world, not after last time that ended badly a broke heart. An Art History major with a sharp tongue hidden behind soft-spoken elegance, Gen preferred quiet cafés, annotated novels, and late nights spent buried beneath oversized sweaters and museum essays. With her porcelain features, pale green eyes, and calm, unreadable demeanor, most people assumed she was delicate. They were wrong. Where Hannah Wells burns bright with stubborn independence and Allie Hayes wears her heart openly, Gen is the steady center between them-the girl who notices everything and says just enough to leave people speechless. She has a habit of dismantling egos with a single deadpan sentence, which becomes a problem for Dean Di Laurentis the second they meet. Because Dean thrives on attention. He's loud, charming, reckless, and impossibly magnetic-the Briar hockey team's resident golden boy with a grin that usually gets him whatever he wants. Girls fall for him easily. People orbit him naturally. Dean knows exactly how to light up a room. And Gen? Gen barely looks up from her coffee. Completely immune to the infamous "Dean effect," she sees through the flirting, the confidence, and the party-boy reputation almost instantly. She's been there before...but. What starts as playful banter quickly turns into something far more dangerous that scare her: lingering looks across crowded parties, late-night conversations in quiet libraries, stolen coffees, unspoken comfort, and the slow realization that the only person capable of calming Dean Di Laurentis down might be the one girl who never tried to impress him in the first place. But beneath Gen's composed exterior lies someone who carries her emotions silently, someone who's spent years convincing herself that needing people is weakness. That dating jocks? Wasn't it if she wanted another broken heart...

Morgane Di Laurentis has always preferred pencil strokes over the looks people give her because of her last name. At Briar University, she isn't just Dean Di Laurentis's little sister. She's an aspiring artist, a girl who dreams of making a living from her drawings, of filling sketchbooks until one of them finally becomes her future. But among all the sketches she keeps hidden away, there's one she's never truly managed to erase. Garrett Graham. Her brother's best friend. Her friend too, for long enough that she knows his smiles, his silences, his teasing... And far too well the effect he has on her. Between them, nothing has ever crossed the line. Just arguments thrown with half-smiles. Glances that linger longer than they should. A closeness too soft to mean nothing. And that tension, persistent, impossible to explain, that only seems to grow every time they pretend there's nothing there. Morgane has gotten used to falling for Garrett in silence. Pretending her heart doesn't give her away whenever he gets a little too close. Believing she'll always be able to keep her feelings under control. Until the day being just friends might not be enough anymore... • Cover by @Ellysabellassia • TOP: 🏅drawn (20/05/2026) 🏅draw (30/05/2026) 🏅graham (28/06/2026)

Clara Cowper has long lived in the shadows of her sparkling sister, Cressida, and the watchful eyes of London society. But when Prince Friedrich returns to the city, even Eloise Bridgerton's sharp tongue and Lady Whistledown's all-seeing pen cannot prepare her for the stirrings of her own heart. Amid glittering balls, whispered intrigues, and the ever-daring Bridgerton advice, Clara discovers that courage, wit, and a little mischief can open doors... and hearts, she never imagined.

A sharp, skeptical anthropology undergrad from a family of coal town teachers and midwives, Rory-Kate Kincaid grew up balancing folklore with fact. She's the kind of girl who wears steel-toed boots to a library lecture, calls you out without flinching, and leaves claw marks in your memory. Sent to La Push to document oral storytelling traditions, she didn't expect to go toe-to-toe with a brooding shapeshifter who hates outsiders almost as much as she hates being underestimated. And she definitely didn't expect Paul Lahote. Old magic doesn't just give, it asks for something in return. Paul Lahote x OC fanfic Post Breaking Dawn Warning: mature themes
