[dreamnotfound & dTeam fantasy/superpower road trip au, 133k+ words, complete] "You're... not afraid?" His voice was barely a peep, shy gaze half-turning away but still watching him out of the corner of his eye. His hand instinctively reached for the pendant at his chest, tips of his finger grazing the crystal and ready to grasp it, somewhat afraid of the answer that would come next. "Why would I be afraid? You're like the coolest person I've met so far! Plus-" He poked his side, and George squeaked, jumping back from the ticklish sensation. "You're so scrawny and small. I'd never be afraid of you!" * * * George never wanted to be one of them. But at eight years old, he discovered he was a Psychic and he was committed into a faraway island academy for Extramundanes. Despite the difficulty of making friends when even other super-powered classmates are afraid of you, George finds a tight-knit group of best friends who aren't afraid to stand up for him. Yet with age comes his developing abilities, and as he grapples for control, the disappearance of one of his best friends leads George and his friends on a runaway road trip to rescue him. However, they fail to realize their true adversary is the threatening power searing inside one of their own. [Cross-posted to AO3]

College is always full of surprises, friends, and stress. And a dash of romance drama. George is a coder, always has been and always will be. His passion is based around the game Minecraft, although they aren't quite well-known. He's the typical stay-in-the-dorm hiding with his computer type student, rarely going out unless he needs food. Clay is an athletic god. It's an understatement saying the college swim team is good since, well, they're the best. If high school status's were still around, he would be well into the popular podium, the girls adoring him, many friends, and practically being a teacher's pet. Maybe it was fate that Clay decided to work at the local coffee shop, a quaint location amongst the common restaurants of a small town, which George finds to be a second home. Maybe it was fate that George manages to get tangled into the "popular" circle. All they know is that college is one helluva game to play.
