Black & White by iam_zeze

As Ayize, a black girl from Soweto, and Norman, a white boy, navigate the dangerous waters of their interracial relationship in apartheid South Africa, they face brutal consequences of their love. Will their story survive in a society built on racial division? "Why are you in love with me?" Ayize asks, torn between the love she feels and the dangers it brings. "I'm black and you're white. Norman, this is against the law." But for Norman, the boundaries drawn by apartheid are nothing compared to the depth of his feelings. "I don't see color, Ayize. If it's against the law, then why does it feel so right?" In a country where interracial love is a crime, Black & White is a powerful tale of courage and resistance in the face of overwhelming odds. #1 in Apartheid - 31/08/2024

Terraria: Another Day Under the Glass by WBarney

'Death never stops surprising you.' A sentiment Aria knows all too well. Her world on its surface is perfect. A completely enclosed ecosystem protected from the nuclear winter of the Outside World. No sickness, no famine, nothing to worry about. Nothing that is except for Spectre, the computer system that determines who lives and dies annually based on their importance to society. Somehow everyone around her seems to cope, but seeing as how Spectre has taken every member of her family, Aria struggles to fall in line with the status quo. Whether it's pressure from the powers that be, her first potential love, or full on revolution, Aria seems to be pulled in every direction, each one with drastic consequences, and no clue which way to go.

First Love, First War, First Step |√| by firerose11

In the name of making everyone equal and to prevent what happened with our ancestors, we have created what will be known as the Founding Laws. 1. No markings or piercings are permitted. Every citizen will be issued the same clothing with the allowance of one fancy outfit. 2. Every family will have two children: one girl and one boy. The population must remain constant until our world has recovered. 3. Marriage is required for every young person by age 30. There will be no marriages permitted between two citizens more than two years apart in age. 4. Constant pay will be issued for every working citizen. The cost of living will not increase more than 0.3%. 5. At birth, every citizen is required to receive a vaccine. This will prevent disease and early death. Failure to comply will result in death. Therefore, in this new world we are living in, we seek to make everyone equal, which will lead to happiness, which will allow us a healthier population. From the Ashes, We Rise.
