This is the story about how a silent singer meets and deaf writer, a story of how a man loves a woman and a woman loves a man, a story where the deaf learn to hear and speak and the silent learn to speak louder. - - - - - - - - - - "You know I'd fall apart without you. I don't know how you do what you do, because everything that doesn't make sense about me, makes sense when I'm with you." #2 page 1 under the tag bastille

When Layla gets caught up in a vicious murder, she doesn't know who she can trust. Somehow she's supposed to solve this case, but with several suspects, and a very clever killer who's always one step ahead, she can't help but feel the answer is right in front of her.

Gaby has dreamt about going to see Bastille and is going to see them later that week but runs into some people a little bit before the performance. Who could these people be?

Things have gotten quite a bit confusing in Dan's mind for the past few months, and knowing that the fans... "shipped" him and Kyle really didn't help anything. But just because some random kids who don't actually know you think you belong with your friend doesn't mean you actually do... right? Maybe he should just keep quiet and ignore the feelings. After all, Kyle is just a friend and couldn't possibly be thinking the same thing. I've tried to highlight the confusions of interest that seem to plague so many of our lives and threaten to ruin our friendships. I've personally dealt with plenty of this confusion so I thought I'd try to put it in a story, and why not use an all-time favorite ship? This is supposed to be pretty realistic BUT of course I'm not saying Dan actually has these feelings for Kyle. Just remember it's fiction. Thanks!
