Briggan wasn't somebody that wanted friends. He'd been alone for as long as he could remember, and he wouldn't mind it if he stayed that way for the rest of his days. Or, at least, he would've... had someone not began meddling in his life. Now, everything was upside down and he had no clue on how to handle it. How will he navigate his thoughts and feelings as he begins to notice that he isn't fighting it, but rather... leaning into the thick of it all?

Beneath his fur by ILoveFurryes321
65 parts Complete Mature
Beneath His Fur is a deeply personal exploration of anxiety, self-worth, and the quiet battles fought behind a carefully maintained mask. Inspired by the author's own experiences with anxiety and the pressure to appear "fine," this story weaves themes of emotional vulnerability and resilience into a tender, unfolding romance. Set in a world of anthropomorphic animals where societal struggles mirror our own, Max appears to have it all together. Outwardly, he's confident, quick-witted, and seemingly at ease with the world around him. But this is a mask-a defense he's perfected to keep others from seeing the weight he carries beneath the surface. Behind his laid-back demeanor is a young man wrestling with depression, overthinking, and the constant fear of being "too much." When Elliot-a quiet, guarded fox-enters Max's life, the cracks in his mask begin to widen. Elliot is someone who sees through the facade, even if he doesn't fully understand it. Together, they embark on a slow, tentative journey toward healing and connection, navigating their emotions and discovering intimacy in ways that feel both unfamiliar and transformative. Beneath His Fur doesn't shy away from the darker aspects of mental health, but it balances those struggles with moments of hope, warmth, and humor. As Max's relationship with Elliot deepens, so too does his understanding of himself, offering readers a raw and authentic glimpse into the complexities of vulnerability and love. This story contains explicit NSFW content, intertwined naturally as the characters' bond evolves. It's a narrative about the highs and lows of self-discovery, the courage it takes to let someone in, and the profound impact of connection. Thank you for joining me on this journey. While this is my first story, it's one born of honesty and a deep desire to resonate with those who may see parts of themselves in Max and Elliot. I hope you'll stay for the ride.
Author X Audience by theresatyree
17 parts Complete Mature
Alexis Ainsley is used to struggle. From her strained familial relations to her bisexuality to trying to her anxiety and trying to score an editorial internship, she's familiar with how hard life can be-although this is her first time struggling with reality when Terry Walsh, the creator of hit cartoon series Serenity Peaks, bumps into her at the movie theater. After hearing her talk about his show as more than just a fan, Terry asks to see Alexis again, and it's not long before Alexis finds herself an intern working alongside Terry on the Serenity Peaks finale. But when tragedy strikes and Terry writes an ending to the series that betrays his female fans, what happens when a fan who got her job through the goodwill of the show's creator disagrees with his proposed ending to the series? Full of feminist propaganda, tragic backstories, and fan feels, Author x Audience tells the story of a fan and a creator that transcend the limited relationship of author and audience to relate to each other as people-and take it from Alexis; the struggle is real! Author X Audience is rated Mature for language, sexual content, violence, and mentions of rape and abuse (none occurs on screen). By proceeding you agree that you are 18+. Please proceed at your own risk, and be advised that above all this is a recovery story with a happy ending. ❤ New chapters every month on the 15th!

The Deconstruction of Eliz by Rossy1eliz
22 parts Complete Mature
When you see someone act outside of what you consider normal, do you judge or help them? How does a grown-up who grew up in a world not conditioned for her behave? How does bullying affect adulthood? This story is for introverts. If your life is rosy and optimistic, you should leave; you won't be able to handle it. Eliz struggles with anxiety and feels disconnected from others. Consequently, she imagines a fantasy world that parallels her own, where she has everything she cannot attain in real life. Her lack of experience is leaving her with doubts about neurodiversity, depression, her sexuality, and the loneliness that comes from her introversion. She struggles to find the strength to face a world where people do not see her as human and project their insecurities onto her, clinging to her "antidotes" as she calls them: a furbaby named Sky, music, chocolate, and Netflix. Without a support system around her, she uses all the stories she sees on the screens as a compass in her life and hopes to get the same result. Because if it works on TV, why not for her? She expresses what she can't convey through words in her mind by using analogies of TV characters or songs. Eliz ponders whether there's a place for her, viewing life through the lens of a mother who had to raise her alone and a sister who resembles a model from a magazine. A friend who is more of a friend when both are doing badly and a job she got because of dropping out of college. Add being monosyllabic, withdrawn, and a boss she doesn't know how to talk to because she "thinks" she's interested in him, but what does she do with that? Come in and look at the mess in her head, hidden behind a desk answering phones. Eliz is repetitive and full of insecurities. She is afraid of her shadow, kind of crazy, but with a good heart. © Registered in SAFE CREATIVE 2304104018014©All rights reserved.

Crushed Underneath the Surface

19 parts Complete Mature

For years, I've been writing in silence, creating worlds, characters, and stories that lived only in the margins of my notebooks and tucked-away folders on my computer. Writing has always been my escape, something I've done for myself-a way to step out of reality for a moment and breathe through the lives of the people I've imagined. I've written and rewritten countless stories, always hesitant to share them, never quite confident enough to let anyone else peek into the depths of my mind. It's always felt like just a hobby, something personal, something safe. But deep down, I've carried a quiet dream of becoming a writer, even though it felt a little foolish to hope for something so big. Now, after pouring myself into this story for what feels like a lifetime, I've finally done it-I've uploaded all my chapters to Wattpad, sharing this piece of me with the world. I know I still have so much to learn, and I'm always striving to get better, but I would truly appreciate any feedback-good, constructive criticism that can help me grow. This is just the beginning, but it feels like a huge step forward. Thank you for taking a chance on this book. Whatever brought you here, whether it was curiosity, a recommendation, or just a moment of wandering, I am truly grateful.
