*mature rating because of language* * TRIGGER WARNING * This is the rewrite of Learning How To Laugh Again. I feel confined within these walls that are depression, these walls that are glass, these walls that are closing in. Everyone peers in, unsure of how to act, so they just watch. They watch me get crushed between these walls. All except one.

It's 2008 at the University of Michigan. What happens when 2 British students audition for a drama group called Starkid? Dylan Saunders/OC Joe Walker/OC

He was left broken, with no hope of ever putting himself together, until she entered his life. He never thought that life could be so rich and that she could make him feel the way she does. This is a love story about two people who were drawn together to fix each other, in ways that they never even knew they were broken. This is a Draco Hermione love story. This is now a completed story. I thank my readers for continuing until the very end, and hopefully you'll follow on to the sequel (as soon as I begin writing it!)

Sam Drevers didn't have the best life in the entire world. Her parents treated her horribly, and her brother was forced to go along with it. She was on the edge of giving up. The only things keeping her happy was her best friends and well, Starkid. After another episode with her parents, she may not be able to take it anymore. Will Brian Holden be able to come in and save her? *WARNING* This story may include scenes of abuse from a parent. May include self harm scenes as well. (I said may, I'm not sure yet)

During her 7th year at Hogwarts, Hermione is intrigued right from the start by the new Astronomy teacher, Professor John Smith. This strange man has captured all her attention and she seems to have done the same to him. As the year goes by, talking to someone on a more intellectual level becomes something of a drug for her. Letters from Ron become less frequent and conversation with John are more often. The student-teacher wall falls to allow a great friendship to form. But Hermione’s feelings are much more than that. She is falling for the wizard with the metal wand. But an affair isn’t the only thing happening is the castle. Strange things are happening to Hermione that even her great mind cannot explain.

High school. Even the sound of those two words made Cassandra De Luca cringe. Ans it's not for the reason you might think. High school for her didn't mean bullying or a friendless existence. No. It meant being invisible. For two straight years Cassie had been ignored by almost the entire student body, even with an incredible voice and the fact that her stepbrother, Darren Criss, was the coolest guy in the school. And even though she on the verge of loser status by the start of junior year, she still had to deal with Darren's incredibly obnoxious friends. But when Cassie finally gets cast in a lead role in the school play, it looks like her luck is finally turning around. Until she sees that Joey Richter, Darren's best friend, is cast as her love interest. Will Cassie be able to balance her ambition and craving for popularity without compromising her morals? Will she stay closed minded about Joey's true intentions, or will she listen to her heart rather than her head? And will Darren be able to accept their budding romance, or will family win out over newfound friendship? **I DO NOT OWN THE MEMBERS OF TEAM STARKID OR ANY OF THEIR WORKS/REFERENCES/AFFILIATES.

The story of Commander Up and Lieutenant Taz from the musical Starship, made by StarKid. Taz, Up, Krayonder, Space-Claw (and I might add Tootsie, Specs, February, Megagirl, Bug and Junior) and any references to Bug World belong to StarKid. However, I own Joey, Paul, Rachel, Commander Hibbart, Peter and any other characters! This starts from after Up has his injury, but there may be some flashbacks... Points of view are mostly Taz and Up, and are alternated. Changes of points of view are shown with ---hyphens---. Any notes from me at the beginning or end of a chapter are seperated from the story with ===equals signs=== Are they going to get together? You'll have to read to find out! Enjoy! xxxxx

((GOING THROUGH A REWRITE - BE PREPARED FOR CONFUSING TIME SKIPS AND POV CHANGES)) The war is over and our heroes return to Hogwarts to complete their final year. But when Professor Trelawney makes a startling prophecy the friends have new problems on their hands and they can't solve them alone. With new romances blossoming and their NEWT exams just around the corner, can they prevent the Dark Lord from returning once more? **Cover by GladYouCame**

Eli thought of herself as an unextraordinary human being. In the world of seven billion, she felt like a tiny ant that meant nothing to the greater scheme of things. But one of those tiny little humans called Joe Walker comes into her life, and she can't help but think that maybe she is something more. Joe was not looking for love whatsoever. He was perfectly content with the way life was, but he doesn't find true happiness until he meets Eli. Joe finds that Eli isn't the picture perfect girl he imagined with a shady past and things she would rather stay mum about, but why is she telling that stuff to Dylan? Dylan is a hopeless romantic. He finds that he's in love with a new girl every month, but with Eli, something is different. Her image sticks in his brain like it's been glued and he can't seem to shake the thought of her. The only thing that is holding him back from falling in love is that obsessive dud of a boyfriend by the name of Joe Walker. Lauren always felt like wallflower when it came to Dylan. She was hopelessly smitten for him and all he could do is pine over some chick that Walker brought in. How could Lauren make Dylan see that she was more than just his best friend and that they are the ones who are supposed to be together? Noah, Eli's twin brother, contrarily wanted nothing to do with the Starkids. He was dutifully paying his way through grad school with his IT job and suffering to stay afloat with his verbally abusive girlfriend. He deems nothing lower than the act of cheating, but why is he the one considering it after he met Jaime Lyn? Jaime Lyn was used to finishing last. She always felt like an afterthought that meant nothing to the world. She has been ridden with bad luck from the start, and she can't tell if Noah is extending her misfortune or putting an end to it. Read the thriller of the three-part saga critics are calling, "a tale for the ages," and, "a timeless classic."
