Part 1 of the "Resilience" Saga. Elaina Kane was born among the stars on the Ark. Despite having a councilman father, she never agreed with the unjust system and laws of the ship. Locked up for stealing spare parts and old tech, she didn't expect a second chance-especially not on Earth. Now, she's one of the hundred sent to a ruined planet to test its ability to sustain life again. But survival isn't just about facing what's out there. It's about learning who to trust and what it means to feel something real for the first time. Between deadly secrets, divided loyalties, and an unexpected connection with an unlikely friend, Elaina must figure out who she is in a world that is nothing like the one she came from. On Earth, love is risky. Survival is never guaranteed. But maybe, for the first time...freedom is real. Resilience: noun; the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties.

"Because I see you running and I drop everything to follow you, because I've spent the last four years watching you, because every time I sing or play it's for you, because I kissed you and it's been all I can fucking think about since." ☆☆☆ This is a Boys of Tommen fan fiction! As all Boys of Tommen fans are, I have been not so patiently waiting for the next books in the series, so I decided to make my own spin on the remaining character's stories. This story will include POVs from Lizzie Young, Hugh Biggs, Katie Wilmot, and Patrick Feely. This story will begin with a POV from Lizzie after the events of Taming 7 and will then explore the past, beginning with Katie's first year at Tommen. This story is the first instalment of my 'Boys of Tommen You Series', interconnected fanfics about different characters in the BOT universe! This is all speculation and many parts will most likely not line up with the canon, especially as this was written before Releasing 10 was published. All of these characters belong to Chloe Walsh, I do not claim any of them as my own, this is purely for fun. TW: This story will include self harm, character death(flashbacks), eating disorders, cheating, depression, suicide ideation/attempted suicide, anxiety, bipolar disorder and overall a lot of trauma. There will also be some explicit scenes that are 16+. I will however be putting specific warnings for different chapters, so you can avoid triggers. Thank you so much for reading and I hope you enjoy! (Comment any questions or suggestions that you have for me)

She comes like rain, soft and gentle, upon his cheeks. The taste of summer snow and enduring love, like a declaration of war upon fate. ⸻ ( daemon targaryen ) ( house of the dragon ) • 2022 ( rewrite in progress )

I used to believe in one rule. Save yourself. Don't trust. Don't depend. Don't need-because the second you do, it gets taken from you. I learned that young. I learned it the hard way. And I was good at it. I kept my head down. I said the right things. I didn't make problems I can't fix, and I didn't get attached to people who come with warnings written all over them. It was easier that way. Safer. Then Joey Lynch happens. And suddenly I'm not careful anymore. I'm running barefoot through streets I shouldn't be in. I'm letting him see parts of me I've spent years hiding. I'm standing in front of him, heart in my throat, trying to figure out why he looks at me like I'm something worth saving-when he won't even save himself. He pushes me away like it's instinct. I follow him like it's mine. We don't talk about what this is. We don't put names on it. We don't even try to pretend it's normal. Because it's not. It's messy and reckless and too intense for something that was never supposed to matter this much. But the worst part? I don't want to stop. Even if it breaks me. Even if it destroys him. Even if, somewhere along the line, I forget how to be the girl who always survives.

Lacey Love Keane has always known how to outrun the past. Lip gloss sharp, heels higher, and heart locked up tight. But in Ballylaggin, the secrets don't stay buried, and the people you love don't always stay yours. Lacey's learning what it means to stay. To build something real. To be seen-and loved-for who she is, not who she's been. But loving Johnny Kavanagh is anything but simple. Because he's choosing her in secret, while the rest of their world falls apart in broad daylight. But nothing stays hidden forever. When ghosts from Lacey's past arrive with teeth, the fragile world she's built starts to crack. As friendships splinter and loyalties blur, the truth threatens to blow everything apart - especially when Lacey is forced to choose between protecting herself, or finally letting someone else try. Meanwhile, Johnny's caught between the girl who's tearing his world open-and the life everyone else built for him. To love Lacey means standing still when he's meant to run, and fighting battles that aren't his - yet somehow feel like they always have been. In a town that loves to talk, a secret love can't last forever. She's chasing her youth. He's chasing her. And the truth? It's catching up with them both.

Lacey Love Keane is a hurricane in heels. At 17, she's got a reputation for being the girl who doesn't need anyone but everyone seems to need her. A fiery mix of wild confidence, untamed charm, and a heart that refuses to be caged, Lacey moves to Ballylaggin to live with her Aunt Orla. Far from her life in London, Lacey doesn't plan on sticking around long but a series of complicated relationships might just change that. When she reunites with Patrick Feely, the boy who used to be her summer sidekick, sparks fly. But it's Joey Lynch, the bad boy with a heart of stone, who's the real problem. They're two sides of the same coin: both emotionally unavailable, both fiercely independent. And neither one knows how to stay away from the other. Then there's Johnny Kavanagh, the one guy who makes her feel things she's spent years trying to avoid. He's everything Lacey doesn't want to want, and he knows exactly how to push her buttons. But what happens when the lines between hate, attraction, and something deeper start to blur? Ballylaggin won't be the same once Lacey Love Keane sets her sights on it. She's a storm waiting to happen and it's going to tear everything apart.

Adopted at nine after surviving a childhood of neglect, she's learned to keep her past buried beneath perfect smiles and quiet grace. No one at her elite school knows where she really came from - and Vivienne plans to keep it that way. Joey Lynch never had the chance to hide his scars.
