It has been ten years since the borrower race was discovered by humankind, and the world is still struggling with its shift towards interspecies equality. Caught in the midst of it all is Brooke Tucker, a student whose family is falling apart after her father is convicted for illegally exterminating borrowers. To make things worse, her classmate and self-proclaimed borrower advocate Kaleb Finch is determined to make her life a living hell when he catches wind of her father's crime. 

But when Brooke discovers that Kaleb harbours a secret of his own; one which could turn the tides on borrower acceptance worldwide if let out, the two of them are forced into a reluctant truce. Both Kaleb and Brooke must learn to put their own prejudices aside if they want to get along, which turns out to be easier said than done in a society determined to drive them apart.All Rights Reserved

The Pet Shop Helper [G/t] by Molly_Cat_2019

Don't let the name fool you. It isn't about treating borrowers like crap and all that. It's actually about a girl named Rose Leaflet who absolutely loves and respects borrowers. She works at a pet shop only because she gets to take care of borrowers that way. But when she is told to take a borrower man that went past his limit to the food market, she's shocked. Never has she had to do that before. And she doesn't. Her boss will tell her to keep the money that she'd receive for the borrower. So instead of selling the man, she takes him home. It's winter, and she can't just let him go. Then she is told to sell a second man the same day. But she doesn't. Instead she also takes him home. After a bit of trouble with the first one, she then finds two little borrower kids. The four borrowers find that they do not mind staying, since she doesn't baby them. She buys them a house and nuts them food that they can make themselves, letting them live comfortably. Soon she's finding that not only is she worrying about selling borrowers to nice people and taking care of borrowers at home in secret, she also has to secretly take home more and more borrowers. How will she keep all of them safe? Find out.

Left Behind by latinpoetess

The little girl had hoped they'd make an exception for her, she wished to see them coming and rescue her. They would lecture her about walking too slowly, because of that she had been spotted by a mouse that tried to kill her. But they didn't come back. Instead, she was found by her worst nightmare: a human. ˏˋ°•*⁀➷𝐖𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐥𝐱𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐥 𝐆/𝐓 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲; ˏˋ°•*⁀➷𝐓.𝐖. ➵ 𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝, 𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐣𝐮𝐫𝐲 (𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐟𝐟 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭).

Boy Trouble GT by moodygirlz

Two roommates. One friendship. A world of difference. Kye is a giant, but he's never felt larger than life. Shy, awkward, and hiding behind oversized hoodies, he's perfectly content fading into the background-except when a bottle of alcohol is in his hands. His quiet kindness is often overshadowed by his bad habits, and though he pretends not to care, there's one person whose opinion means everything to him. Mason, on the other hand, is human-and the complete opposite of Kye. Popular, confident, and full of energy, he thrives in the spotlight, surrounded by friends and teammates who adore him. But no matter how many people fill the room, he always seems to drift back to Kye, the so-called weirdo that others overlook. They've been best friends for years. Nothing more. Nothing less. Until one night, Kye gets too drunk, and suddenly, everything is too much, too fast, too real. Now, the boundaries between them are blurring, emotions rising to the surface that neither of them were prepared for. As Kye wrestles with the fear of ruining the only thing keeping him afloat, and Mason starts questioning why he keeps gravitating back to his giant of a best friend, the tension between them grows. Will Kye finally get the man he's been secretly in love with for years? Will Mason realize that the connection between them runs deeper than just friendship? Or is this just one giant emotional wreck waiting to happen? Read now to follow their journey-where size isn't the only difference between them, but love just might be the thing that bridges the gap.

The Sugar Thief (G/T) (Completed) by bottlesandbuttons

My first ever g/t work. Inspired by Arrietty, although different plot. Contains sfw interactions only (minus some angst) (43,000~ words). Everything takes place in modern day, but in a fictional reality where little beings (borrowers) live in the walls and take things that humans don't need. They're incredibly timid creatures, but excellent survivors and very agile. They'd look 100% human if not for their ears, tails, and feet. Carter is the youngest in a family of four, resilient with a daredevil spirit. After a tragic turn of events he's left to fend for his own, and manages alright, until the unimaginable happens. But.. things may not be as bad as they seem. (Check out my other works for more GT content!)

The Winged by _Tiny_Stories_

Surviving can be difficult when you're only a few inches tall. Fanged beasts see you as their prey, every creature is bigger than you, and the world seems to work against small things. Not to mention the struggles of getting from place to place... but the worst of it all? Humans. Once a year, every year, summer sweeps over the forest. The sun warms the leaves and the damp melts away until the world of the Winged flourishes. Those warm months are when survival becomes the hardest. Drawn by the beauty of the forest, humans of all kind invade the already dangerous home of the small Winged people. Fear of these monsters is shared throughout the tribes. One sacred piece of advice is known: avoid humans at all costs. They know only how to destroy and hurt. ___ Despite the protests of her close friend, Azure accepts a mission that takes her from the safety of her tribe. Things begin well despite her trepidation of the approaching summer months. That is, until she falls right into the hands of the very creatures she feared. ___ Completed! Beware of some crappy writing and stupid typos :0 Second part is on my account :) :)
