You think it's crazy pushing the envelope of morality or what society deems is normal? To question you own sanity and ask yourself why you do somethings in your life? And who said that the one fine line between moral and immoral has to be so thin or sane versus insanity? I ponder what I was raised to believe when a famous quotes pop into my head:
“Respect for ourselves guides our morals; respect for others guides our manners”
by Laurence Sterne
I chuckle to myself and have to agree with this because in my line of work, there are gray areas and I have worked so hard to gain the respect I deserve from coworkers, my boss and my partner, thus allowing me to respect myself even more.One of my few friends from high school called me insane once to do this and I might well be, but hey you just have to push that invisible line sometimes right?So some feel I'm totally insane with how I view life, the question is am I? Ding another quote surfaces in my thoughts:
“Sanity and happiness are an impossible combination.” by Mark Twain
Now that's what I'm talking about because sometimes a person has to do crazy things to find true happiness in an insane world. I start to calm my nerves and I remember my favorite quote from the high school text that was shoved down our throats:
“No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness.” by Aristotle

My light... My hope!
As a kid, bullied and shunt, there was nothing to the outside world that Izuku didn't hate at all. So without even thinking twice, he shut himself in and started to do what he could do best... gather information. Now years after getting abused and living alone not even stepping outside his door for once, he managed to befirend a hero quite the odd way. Little did he know that the hero valued his little anonymous friend and decided to help him out to the max he could. Too bad for the hero that his heart was already stolen from him over all the years of support he got from the green bean. A/N: This is a mha fanstory hope you enjoy!

Like a Good Boy
Izuku My mom has never thought much with her brain and always lets her heart guide her way. It's why she's always with dumb guys and getting her heart shattered. Two boyfriends ago, it was a serial cheater. The last boyfriend had a gambling addiction and drained every account she had, including my college fund that both she and I had built. It wasn't just her money he stole. It was my money too, and now, I'm the one stuck paying the price for it. The last thing I want is to pull out loans I'll never be able to repay. Two and a half jobs barely cut it, and I'm drowning. When my roommate (and best friend) sees me struggling to keep up with it all and get some sleep, he suggests I look into a sugar daddy. He has one and swears it's the best decision ever. The sugar world is overwhelming at first glance, and thankfully, my best friend and his sugar daddy have my back and set me up with the best possible match. Katsuki After choosing not to re-sign a contract with a baby because his feelings grew for me, I began my search for another one. Being a serial entrepreneur has its perks. I have money, but I also have a busy work schedule, and sometimes I find myself in the office from when I wake up until I go to bed. Most of my time is spent spoiling whoever I've signed a contract with and without one, work might consume me again. Nobody's interesting me enough to want to meet more than once, and I own the most popular app used for sugar relationships, so believe me, I've looked. I'm hesitant when a friend tells me his sugar baby knows someone looking to get into the sugar world. First-timers don't usually have a lot of issues and end up falling in love or canceling their contracts. After seeing pictures of him, I decide to take a chance, hoping he's different than the other first timers I've been with. ⚠️TRIGGER WARNINGS⚠️ Alcohol Use Cursing Smut light to moderate bdsm daddy/baby boy kink Credit for cover: dyn4bun on instagramComplete

THE TYRANT FROM TUCKAHOE A love story
The lines between genius and insanity are so fine it can't be seen with the naked eye, but it's there sharing space in the brain. Dr. Dennis Dennison, a brilliant neurosurgeon, knew his limitations; he was lucky enough to surround himself with loved ones who knew his limitations. People who loved him, protected his brain, took care of him, because Dennis knew how to love. He slapped it everywhere; it was the most important part of everything. Dennis was happy he had everything; a life like his couldn't be written as good. One normal day under a normal sky, Dennis life turned dark. Something took important pieces meant to hold good thoughts in check. His genius broke, insanity was set free, it found itself in charge allowed to grow stronger every day. Let's be clear, there is no grey area in what Dr. Dennison did, it wasn't just against the law; what he did was against the laws of nature. What he created should have never been imagined let alone carried out. Given know choice unaware it's has been taken is worse than prison; it's what separates us from other animals; what are we without our rights to choose. After his heinous crimes against man and nature, the good doctor says he's sane again; he wants to rejoin normal people pretend like nothing happened; move on with his life. You decide good or bad.Complete
As Long as I Have You
Izuku We had our entire life planned. We were going to continue to climb the ladder, get married, and have a family. But the longer we were together, the more followers we had, it all started to fade in the background. It was photoshoots, restaurant openings, trend after trend, and eventually, I had less time to see my family, less time for the things I had wanted to do. When I got a strange DM from a guy, warning me about the man I sleep beside every night, I ignored it and trusted him. But when I got ahold of his phone for the first time in years, it was hard to ignore what I already knew. Katsuki I love my life. I have great friends, a good family, a job that even on the bad days, I still look forward to. The run-down one bedroom house that three of us share isn't exactly my favorite thing, but it's home and sharing it with Denki and Eijiro makes it feel more live able than it really is. Money's tight and we don't have a lot, but we have love, loyalty, and friendship-something that's increasingly harder to come by in LA. The DM I got from an apparent rising influencer is proof of that. On top of the various platforms he uses, his entire Instagram page is dedicated to him and his boyfriend. When he DM's me, I shoot him down and even threaten to steal his man because if he won't treat him right, someone else should. ⚠️TRIGGER WARNINGS⚠️ Alcohol/Drug use Cursing Cheating Abuse SmutComplete

"You can't rely on other people's kindness in this world. It don't exist." Normal people are like oblivious little ants, just working their way around, carry food, part of a bigger picture. People are so bland and mundane, each of them trying to be like the others. I suppose I'm no different- I'm trying to fit in too. However, a crippling obsession to avenge my only friend's death is getting in the way of that. If I want to get on with my life, I need to learn to come to terms with my past in a way that's less likely to get me killed.Complete
Static
{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16Complete
