Arthur Bloomlock, son of Medalia Bloomlock and Walter Bloomlock, embarks on a journey full of tribulations after the incident that happened during an Event to celebrate something the Government has been working on for a very long time. What really seemed like an Utopia, turned into something far more indescribable. Bennett Thunderstorm just so happened to be there on the night of the event. Little did he know, he would embark on a journey with Arthur. The goal is to survive. But would that really be enough? The two want answers and to be safe. But answers and, most importantly, safety aren't to be found in the Upside City, Also known as Dreamaspira. Arthur and Bennett must both travel somewhere else, a place many speak badly of. The Undercity, The complete opposite of the Upside City, was Truly a Dystopia, or so it looked. There, Arthur and Bennett meet the Rulers of Mispair. Unexpected events happen. Will Bennett succumb to the mysterious woman who is part of the Rulers of Mispair? Will the head Ruler of Mispair open up to Arthur? Aside from that, will the two best friends be destroyed by the Government? Arthur Bloomlock and Bennet Thunderstorm have a lot to learn, a lot to discover, much mourning to do, a lot to lose, and particular people to love. Many decisions would shape their future, but would they choose the right ones? Disclaimer: The description was made on the 8th of December, 2023. All types of Assault, swearing, corruption, intense topics (famine, poverty, etc.), mature scenes.

"Listen, I've got a proposition for you," Azure's firm voice flew across the soft wind of the graveyard, "something mutually beneficial." Elliot stepped back slightly, "I doubt that." Azure stepped closer and the street light flickered; he then whispered, it was soft, like the fall of dead leaves, "I can help you keep your scholarship. Don't you want to keep your dream a reality?" Elliot narrowed his eyes, "Did you do a background check on me?" "That doesn't answer my question." "And that didn't answer mine." (Abridged) -/- Life had never been fair to Elliot. After barely managing to scrape by, he somehow made it to his junior year at Central Haven, one of the most prestigious preparatory high schools in the country. He was prepared for another two tiresome years of high school, but the future has other plans for him. The start of the school year brings with it the infamous Central Haven merit project. Unfortunately, it's done in pairs this year. Even worse, he's stuck with Azure, notorious for his flippant demeanor. His living situation gets worse and his scholarship is at risk. Azure notices Elliot's struggles and the two make a deal. Surely Azure's up to something, but what? Regardless, Elliot isn't in a position to refuse. ...Maybe they'll find and lose Liberation. -/- If you're unsure about this reading this story, I hope you'll at least stick around to chapter 7 when the story begins ramping up. This story is a slow burn, enemies to friends to lovers. Please do not take this story at surface value as there is a lot of subtext. Be aware: the story can be extremely subtle. The story delves into various topics with social commentary so if you want a nuanced modern romance story, I highly suggest you give this story a try. Elliot is a strong protagonist, just less traditional. Updates will come on Fridays at 4 p.m. (PST) with most months having at least one update. The ending is planned so the story won't be incomplete.

So I read this fic ages ago but it wasn't complete and it hadn't been updated since 2014 and I really want to finish it so I decided to finish it myself, however, all credit for the idea and the first chapter goes to jaeparker on archiveofourown and their fic was called 'your graduation'. This is their summary: Michael and Gavin grew up together. Inseparable. best friends for life. Until One day Gavin just stops talking to Michael entirely. Right when Michael needs his best friend most, he's gone in an instant. Gavin leaves Michael to deal with school, growing up, and the loss of both of his parents alone. I in no way claim any credit to the idea of this story, however all writing from chapter 2 onwards is entirely my own and I also edited the first chapter but the ideas are all based on the original story.
