Kenneth Dekker lives trapped in the hospital undergoing robotic lung treatment. He regularly escapes to the VR world Atlas Quest--his safe haven. There he befriends another player, a girl named Byrd. Over time, he takes comfort in having another human being to talk to as his health takes a turn for the worse.
His lungs weaken, but Kenneth knows he can't afford the lung transplant. Still, he refuses to get financial help from his abusive mother. Without anywhere else to turn, he immerses himself in Atlas Quest. He grows close to Byrd and their friendship renews his desire to live life. However, his health issues still loom ahead.
No matter what, he can't run from reality forever.

Completed. When you meet someone that makes you feel like the whole world is made out of diamonds and you are as happy as you ever wished for, you expect to grow old by his side. You will do anything for him, and he will do everything for you. Since forever isn't promised to anyone and the chosen roads will lead far away from one another, would there be any chance to meet again? They say there are all types of love, but never the same love twice, what if, there was only one love that melted your heart in a way that made you fly to the sky to be kissed by an angel? What if, his arms are the only ones you would want around you? What would you give to feel his touch and his lips, once again before you die? What if there was a secret to tear you up from the inside? Would love be enough to keep two different people together? All rights reserved.

Burning for Him
Between sarcasm, secrets, and stolen moments, falling for Damien was the easiest bad decision Nate ever made. Nate's life? Not fine. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder, he's trying to keep it together one day at a time. But then there's Damien-walking chaos in human form. Charming, cocky, and hotter than the sun, Damien has this talent for getting under Nate's skin like no one else can. Worse? He's tempting. Like, moth-to-a-flame tempting. And those stolen glances Damien gives-like Nate's the most precious thing on earth? They're not helping. Damien is off-limits and trouble-a heartbreak in human form, the ultimate fuckboy. But resisting him? Feels impossible. And if Nate's not careful, Damien might burn his whole world down-and Nate might just let him.

Built For Pleasure
Atlas opened his eyes with hands around his throat. Which was unusual, as it would be for just about everyone. After realizing the situation he was actually in he opened his mouth to let out a scream only to have the hands around his throat tighten. "Shh baby, you dont want anyone to come in and see this now do you." "You're gonna be a good boy for me now right.?" The voice spoke yet again. Atlas had only just realized what kind of situation he was in. And man was he was screwed.... ----- Started: 9/10/20 Ended: 8/1/23Concluida
Loveless
Love never made sense, but it never had to either. Toby would do anything to get rid of his entirely embarrassing crush, but he isn't sure how. Attempting to find new crushes never works, especially when his best friend can see right through him. ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< I'd like to preface this by stating that there will be parts that some may find triggering. There will be times where characters talk about mental health, lgbtq+ issues, and eating disorders. I'll begin each chapter with a trigger warning if need be, as well as marking the parts that may be triggering so they can be easily skipped. Take care of yourself <3 ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><Concluida
Steady Ground | ✔
He's damaged. He's lost. And worse of all, his memories have come to life. If he wants to find peace, he'll need to redefine what it really means to move on. -- For the first time in years, Atlas feels like he's separated himself from the misfortune in his life. He's healed, he's rented a decent apartment, he's settled into a solid-enough-for-him job working as a grunt for some scientists. Now he's (reluctantly) traveling to the spring snows of Alaska, where they plan to test the first run of their earthquake-harnessing technology. But something goes wrong. They don't harness the energy of an earthquake. No. Instead, the ground rips apart. A massive crevice forms, leading deep into the Earth. The chasm lulls him forward like a Siren, telling him tales of his mother, of her laughter, of her scent of strong sandalwood, and of his life before her death. Waking up in what he can only describe as Hell, he's confronted with every misfortune in his life. Forced to befriend mirages made from his most painful childhood memories or pay severe consequences, he travels the twisted realm in search of answers.
