Genetic modification has changed the fabric of society. Birthing rights, job opportunities, insurance policies, and school admissions all depend on the value of your DNA. The rich elite pay for their children to be brilliant and beautiful and brave. They live in wealthy Districts and watch as the rest of the population are forced to inhabit poverty-stricken Slums. But, everything is not as it seems; some aspects of the genome are better left untouched. 

For years, behavioral disorders have been correlated to specific genomic features. Unique methylation patterns indicating sociopathy, and psychopathy. Transcriptome commonalities between pyromaniacs, and violent criminals. To house these genetic deviants and keep their cities safe, the Districts rely on rehabilitation centres. During her yearly DNA test, Willa Reyez's is deemed sociopathic. After years of isolation she is forced to learn her own truth. After all, correlation does not imply causation.

We Were Stardust Once by rrrick_grimesss
21 parts Ongoing
They were born from the stars, but the world refuses to let them stay. It has been three years since the Genesis Flares, the solar phenomenon that gave birth to Astrans: beings with abilities beyond human comprehension. Some see them as miracles, others as abominations but to those in power, they are a threat that must be controlled, exploited, or eradicated. Fear spreads like wildfire, and war is inevitable. Among the displaced and the hunted, a survivor fights to carve out a future for her people, refusing to let them be erased from history. By her side stands the one who saved her, a sister in all but blood, a friend who has vowed to protect her, even if it means keeping dangerous secrets. As alliances fracture and loyalties are tested, they must navigate a world that has already decided what they are: enemies. In the heart of the conflict, two minds once dedicated to progress now wrestle with the weight of their own creations. One, a scientist bound by failing health, seeks to undo the greatest mistake of his life before time runs out. The other, an engineer thrust unwillingly into war, struggles between duty, regret, and the burden of being the only one left to fight. Lines blur between vengeance and justice, survival and sacrifice. The choices they make will determine not only the outcome of the war but the future of the Astrans themselves. Before the war, before the fear, they were all the same. They were all stardust once.
