It's weird how life can change in a blink of an eye.

" the poor can't have enough and the richest can't have it all. " Dan Howell and his family are poor - they struggle to make ends meet. Dan has one passion in life - art. Unable to find a canvas, Dan makes the alleys at night his canvas - turning the walls into paintings. Phil Lester - the richest and loneliest kid around - finds the paintings, and soon finds himself drawn to the beautiful graffiti, which is only ever blue.

Sad shit I come up with. (Mostly oneshots.) Hindsight 2021: Some really messed up shit. 14-15 y/o me projecting my issues onto fictional versions of Dan Howell and Phil Lester. I hope they never saw these. Good stories still, kind of, but read with caution. Triggerwarnings have been added.
