Ramona "Mona" Gray only wanted to catch a big fish. Instead she caught a boy the same height as herself. Adam Fink was trying to catch a girl to take home to his grandpa that only wanted him to fall in love... With anyone, he didn't care as long as Adam was happy like his parents had been when they had met. Ramona didn't want a boy to bring home to her mom. Her sister already had a man lined up for the both of them, and neither of those boys was Adam. No, they were "respectful" gentlemen. Which to Ramona meant they were snobbish and most likely sexist in their own subtle ways. They wouldn't care for her boy short hair or that she loved her beanie dearly and would never part with it. Still, with matching plaid button ups that were both bought from the same side of the store it was clear that these two would get along... Well mostly, Adam wasn't too keen when she pushed him off the dock. And Ramona wasn't too happy to jump in after him to save him when he could have easily stood up in the water. After she took to calling him princess while he continued to access that she needed to grow out some stubble since she was already working the "man of the wilderness" look. Their adventures of their senior year will be tricky, probably a bit roundabout, and maybe just a teeny bit romantic. Still its like Ramona always says, "high school is just some pond to practice life in, once its over you go down the river of college and then you're at the ocean of opportunity and depending on what kind of fish you are it could be scary and vast or it can be too small and lonely."

[#83 Action] (nanowrimo 2014) Just outside New York City, there is a high school senior with the misfortune of being named after Superman himself. Clark Kent's parents are geeks. His brother is a geek. He is a geek, too. However, opposites don't attract. Because as much as she would like to believe that she is a complete and total badass, Carly Caine is very much a geek herself. Except for the superpower part. That's pretty badass. So maybe opposites don't attract between people, but the magnetic cling of contrasting characteristics certainly aids the transformation between mild-mannered Carly to silver-edged Vertigo. Alter egos make Carly's life complicated. Unrequited love towards a not-so-super-Superman is never fun. But the growing possibility of apocalypse? Carly slips on her mask and pulls on her combat boots: Bring it on.

Harper's a man of few accomplishments and even fewer aspirations. He is perfectly content with his bicycle delivery boy job, his closet of an apartment, and his daily swim in the questionable town harbor. Being special was never something he had ever been particular about, and to be very frank, he didn't really care for it at all. So when two strangers inform him that he is, indeed, special, Harper refuses to hear of it. Just think of it! Him? Save the world?? They must be out of their minds.

Opal has always been Opal. You would think she'd make up a new name for the new life she has, but she figures the one given to her by her oblivious parents is perfect for the new career of an exotic dancer. It's not so hard to be a different person - she is good at pretending. Good at doing as she's told, and earning money from it, too. What is hard is forgetting about things. Like the fact that her heart is beating in her chest so erratically it could end her life any second. Or the fact that she's trying to escape from the big bad wolf. Maybe even the feelings she develops for someone, even though she is supposed to be hollow inside and out. Opal doesn't like to forgive, but she does like to forget. Maybe it makes all the bad things disappear. Maybe it makes the world a little bit better. But maybe it will all come crashing down in the end.
