Zhongli was.... tired. The type of tiredness that settled deep into one's soul and made the body exhausted. He wanted nothing more than to ignore the world for a while; especially when he returned to an empty home. Diluc and Baizhu were going to be gone, can Childe find him before Zhongli delves too deep into the depths of his own mind?

"Growing up isn't easy, especially when the people who are supposed to guide you don't understand the storms you're facing. From sneaking out at night, hiding little secrets, dealing with toxic families, first loves, and figuring out who you really are, this collection dives deep into the messy, emotional, and completely human experiences of being a teen. Raw, honest, and unfiltered, these stories are written for anyone who's ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or just... overwhelmed. Sometimes all you need is to know you're not alone."

Brooke: I'm tired. Just tired of pretending that everything is fine. Making myself believe that college will be different. Because it won't be. I'm in a loop and I can't get out. I've been a failure to my family, coaches, friends.. to everyone basically. Everyone was so sure that I would go to the olympics at the age of 15. That I had a gift, a potential to go all the way. Well, at the age of 19 I can definitely say that I no longer have that gift. I'm not even close to the times I came when I was 15, yet everyone seems to remember that version of me. Now, all they see when they look at me is wasted potential, a failure, an embarrassment. But, sadly I'm still here, in a division 1 college, acting like I'm fine, like I'm not burnt out. Because I have to be, because there simply isn't any other choice for me. And then, I receive a text. Unknown: You look really pretty today Nathan: I know her. Not literally. I guess I know of her is more accurate. But I can see the real her, how she acts like she is okay even though she is barely existing. She always hides in her clothes and only talks if someone talks to her first. I can only guess what she's been through for the last 4 years, from being the gifted swimmer to a ''wasted potential''. That's how the newspapers published her as. But I was there when she was the best, and then when she was seen as a failure. I always watched her but never came close to her. I just always could relate to her, I could feel what she felt. But that was it, me watching her from far away. And then, 2 years later I see her again. In one of my classes. Well, this time, I'm not only going to watch.

this story is angst to fluff basically shira stressing over his studies and ends up asking a break from semi, his boyfriend but his boyfriend knowing him is by his side along with his bestfriend taichi. contains different customs ig (if that's wht its called)

-A literal journal of a burnt out kid (who is most definitely not me) "why would someone publish their literal personal diary?" - Me, I just wanted to see who can also relate to my story out there... At any case, I've had my own way of referring to the word 'burnt out', as it is a way for me to express how tired I am of our school system, society, people, and most importantly, expectations. I was once praised too much as a child because excel so much faster than my other peers...

Hey im sad

ranboo is the top student, new kid tommy comes in and absolutely ratios him and then ranboo gets really stressed over losing so he tryhards studying and miserably fails while falling into a spiral of deteriorating mental and physical health -------------------------------------------- "Class, settle down," A voice echoed throughout the classroom, leaving the students scrambling back to their seats, "We have a new student." A tall, blond kid stood at the door, clutching one of his bag straps, visibly awkward as everyone's attention was diverted to him. "That's Tommy, he's 17, a year younger than each and every single one of you, but he's very good at math, so I expect you to be nice to him." Very good at math? Almost like that kid could remotely compare to Ranboo - they snickered, judging the lanky kid from head to toe. They stopped the spinning pen, positioning it perfectly in his hands, smirking, as he started to vigorously scribble on their notebook. Someone's bound to humble him.

A peaceful life. Something one cant have but others can get. Something that another gambles their happiness to get. But if your drowning in a sea of emptiness,does it even count? Is it even really peaceful, if you dont feel peaceful at all?... AN: Pretty much a vent story or something. Also,I aint updating this as much since this is only a side story where I can organize my ideas and think of a new chapter for Withered Rose. Hope you enjoy! Warning!: Angst Toxic Alcohol

I'm writing this because it's how my ex and I were, everything I've done was for them. And I wanna go back to this one day and realize I should've loved myself more. But mostly this is for self improvement and peace of mind for myself.
