Two kids; one dying slowly and one dying quickly, both wasting away. Instead of letting death cripple them, they decide to take death as a challenge and make sure whether they died tomorrow or in fifty years, they'd be remembered but not as the boy with the terminal illness and the girl with the eating disorder but as legends.
"Oh how silly we were to think immortality meant living forever,"

Fading Away - Dissolved Pt 1 (Ylvis)
“I talk a little to the girl at the register. Turns out she went to the same school as Vegard. She had a major crush on him but he never knew she existed. So sad really. Well, that's life I guess. I wonder if she worked yesterday when we were there buying breakfast? I'm not gonna ask, she talks about him like she´s still into him. Apparently she runs into him now and then. I tell her I think she should talk to him. I mean, why not, she seems like a nice girl.” That's how it all starts, a few friendly words. Nothing you think twice about, something you just say. Maja could never imagine what would come out of it. Hurtful words, broken hearts, destroyed friendships. Vegard says yes to one date with the girl when she convinces him that Maja told her to ask him out. Instead of asking Maja if it is so, he just acts hurt and childish, thinking that Maja doesn't care about him, and gets caught up in an abusive relationship with a fatal outcome. Can Maja help an 11 year old boy save his big brother?Complete

Jesse's Girl (COMPLETE)
They had both been dealt enough tragedy in their short teenaged lives, more than anyone should ever have to endure. Will two self destructive teens coming together do more harm than good? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I don't know what came over me. The poor guy just asked if he could help and I went all 'crazy psycho bitch' on his ass. I couldn't breath. I needed water. I needed air. Fuck why was is it so hot in here. Was it the fact that the moment his hand left my skin I felt an unbearable need to feel his touch again or was it hearing him ask if I needed help that made me feel helpless and broken once again. I didn't know what it was but I felt like I was suffocating, like the jersey I was wearing was strangling every ounce of oxygen from body. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * This story had been reviewed recently.

Re:Villains
Two villains work for a guild that do mob/gangster like jobs for income. Like they take a job request (like an assassination) on the board and if they complete it, then the guild gives them the reward money. However the two main villains could never successfully complete a job because they are clumsy, their powers suck, or they always get defeated by a hero. The only income they receive is pity change from the guild. The guild members pretty much call them lame villains and that heroes walk all over them. The guild starts seeing them as a waste of money and space so they start to evict them. The main characters would have nowhere else to go, but see a request that's asking to kill one of the top heroes in the area. They grab the form and accept the job....Complete
