1990s bestfriends boardingschool comingofage gayromance marauders mystery prodigy romance youngadult

"I'm afraid of being any more different than I already am," Milo blurted, eyes widening with every word of his confession. Matthew stared at him evenly, waiting for him to continue on. "I have always been... separate. From everyone and ev-everything. I've never been a part of any grou-oup. No one used to talk to me ever before I got here and now... and now I'm afraid that no one will ever talk to me- to me- to me again if I get any more diff-fferent."

~~

Milo Higgins, Matthew Martin, Demetrius Carlson, and Federico Moretti live the types of lives where static is the solitary constant. Though only fourteen, they have shouldered their share of loss, pain, and fear-- and on top of it all, bear the added stress of being labelled as prodigies. When they are placed together in a dorm room for their first year at the Vineyard Academy for the Gifted and Talented, logic dictates that high-stake emotions, hilarity, and much adventure simply must ensue. Join the boys as they explore and stretch the boundaries of the human heart, forging fast friendships and fierce loyalties every step of the way.All Rights Reserved

To All the Sins You Couldn't Commit by whoscountinganyway

"If I could pick anyone in the entire world, in the entire world, Will, I'd still choose you." *** William Nile has always felt a lack of control in his life. His head's clustered and the past likes to eat at his thoughts. Isolation is a synonym for safety and staying neutral is a key ingredient for survival. He's always felt more put together when he was a mess; always felt like the world was clearer in the dark. He can't help it, this is just how it's always been. Then comes along a new foster family who throws him for a loop. They're exactly who they say they are, exactly who they act to be. With that comes a goofy boy named Clement and his best friends, annoying twins who laugh loudly- -good luck telling Jude and Demi apart- -and a girl named Minnie who has a god complex. Will knew from the day he arrived that he needs to focus on acting the way his foster moms want, on getting good grades, at playing soccer well and making sure that for once, he doesn't mess up. He knows he doesn't want to lose these friends, knows he wants to feel wanted and needed and understood. Because here, there is more focus on his mental health than there is on if he's acting the 'right' way. Here, there is room for growth and change past a foster parent's ideal child. Here, there's no room for entertaining the idea of him with a pretty boy who has a witty smile and a loud laugh. On that last note, he has no idea what to do (and Will is someone who likes to plan ahead). *** A coming of age story.

Falling Fast by AbigailGranger

There are a few things that can make you feel as if you are living in an American high school drama - teachers complaining about the height of your skirt, your twin brother being the most popular and most sought-after boy at school, hurtful rumours that make you want to curl up and cry, punching the guy who cheated on your best friend, and falling for totally hot, totally sexy night-class professor because he's simply drool worthy and those rolled 'R's are the sexiest thing on the planet. Factor in crazy parties, Halloween costumes, fending off not-so-drunken make-out sessions, the school bad-boy, late-night snacks from McDonald's, revenge and a smart-ass dad, and the stage is set for my somewhat tragic social life.

Aether's Legacy | Elysium [Dreamnotfound] by LightNS

[dreamnotfound & dTeam fantasy/superpower road trip au, 133k+ words, complete] "You're... not afraid?" His voice was barely a peep, shy gaze half-turning away but still watching him out of the corner of his eye. His hand instinctively reached for the pendant at his chest, tips of his finger grazing the crystal and ready to grasp it, somewhat afraid of the answer that would come next. "Why would I be afraid? You're like the coolest person I've met so far! Plus-" He poked his side, and George squeaked, jumping back from the ticklish sensation. "You're so scrawny and small. I'd never be afraid of you!" * * * George never wanted to be one of them. But at eight years old, he discovered he was a Psychic and he was committed into a faraway island academy for Extramundanes. Despite the difficulty of making friends when even other super-powered classmates are afraid of you, George finds a tight-knit group of best friends who aren't afraid to stand up for him. Yet with age comes his developing abilities, and as he grapples for control, the disappearance of one of his best friends leads George and his friends on a runaway road trip to rescue him. However, they fail to realize their true adversary is the threatening power searing inside one of their own. [Cross-posted to AO3]
