Two years marks the day when Gloria became champion, as well as the year she lost touch with her best friend Hop. In the time that passed, Bede and Marnie stepped up to fill Hop's vacancy while Gloria remained steadfast in her new job. Although, just when life settles for her, Hop suddenly reappears on the scene--determined more than ever to not be undermined by Bede. As they spend time with Gloria, both boys realize their feelings lie beyond friendship, and naturally a competition is reignited between them. However, there are secrets hiding beneath Gloria's surface: an accident from six years ago, a mysterious group called Project: Open Dream, and an ancient tale about the mysterious "shooting star" child, Jirachi's Twin. Hop and Bede will be forced to work side-by-side to uncover the truths without hurting Gloria more than she already is. 38 Chapters, updates Mondays, btyu & hpyu ships Content Warnings: Teenage humor, minor blood, death, action/violence, SFW romance, implications of suicide/depression, alcohol/drinking, implications of abuse, kidnapping, general angst Extra Information: Genre: Romance, Mystery Main Ships: Bede x Gloria, Hop x Gloria Implied/Minor Ships: Leon x Sonia, Nessa x Raihan, Marnie x Bede I occasionally post mini-comics for this series.

Wrestled into a corner with only one way out, she embarks on a journey to uncover the truths of her vicious kingdom. Varyn walks a very fine line in the royal courts, finding herself at the mercy of the King's whims, where one wrong move can have terrible consequences. When a string of murders is committed inside the castle walls, the time is ticking for her to put a stop to it before chaos erupts. Two women are forced to uncover the blood, bones, and treachery that built their kingdom and line the throne. The stakes could be their lives or worse. Much, much worse. War? That doesn't quite cover it. TW: violence, implied SA, and mentions of suicide/depression. This story is heavy and has some dark themes. *** Disclaimer: although I made the cover myself, I do not claim to have made any of the beautiful art used on it.
