Your pain is not your own.

It's 2084 Manhattan and uppercrusters inhabit gleaming skyrises while bottomfeeders struggle to survive in a black mold-infested concrete jungle. The latest tech has some uppercrusters known as Syphons paying desperate bottomfeeders known as Receivers to funnel their pain away. Syphons and Receivers never cross paths... until 17-year-old disabled bottomfeeder Rho meets upper city socialite Zander. No two humans have ever been connected in the way they become interlinked--physically and emotionally--so what happens when Rho starts dreaming Zander's dreams?

The Fault In Our Flesh  by RellySpams
19 parts Ongoing
In a disease-ridden world, infection doesn't always take your life. Sometimes, it takes everything else. Some survive still themselves and awaken powers that defy physics and nature. Others rot from the inside out, becoming ravenous things with minds shredded beyond repair. They are called Defects Noxious's greatest experiment. Lives broken and remade. Creatures engineered to obey, kill, and die... before ever living at all. Monica Subject Eight can reshape matter into anything she can imagine: barriers, weapons, walls that should not exist, and impossible constructs. She was meant to be nothing but a weapon... but she clings to hope like a blade, yet the more she uses her power to protect the people she cares for, the more Noxious tries to carve the humanity out of her. Kaito the Defect who can seize a mind like a fist around a throat and bend the world. whose power isn't measured in force, but in the silence of every mind he could take without leaving a mark, was the one person she allowed herself to trust. The one person who looked at her like there was more inside her than circuitry and purpose. Their bond was forged in captivity, guilt, and silent promises. The kind born of survival, not hope. But when Monica discovers the truth that Noxious is quietly eliminating the older Defects to replace them with "better" versions every fragile thing she ever believed in fractures. Friendship becomes a liability. Loyalty becomes a weapon. And love whatever broken shape it took becomes a target to be erased. To save the only people she has left, Monica must destroy the place that made her... and face the horror that she may never outrun what she was engineered to be. Not even for him. Not even for herself. If something is built broken... is there even a version of her worth saving? "Pain, fear, hate, hope, love, those are the bones and pieces of me. Remove one, and the whole thing collapses back into the empty obedient monster they designed."
