Managing anxiety is difficult enough, but for Mike not being able to do so could plunge the world into darkness.
Being born at the bottom in a society that divides itself by magic and abilities only makes navigating his struggles all the more impossible.
And the end of the world? That just might send him over the edge.

The deconstruction of Eliz by Rossy1eliz
22 parts Complete Mature
When you see a person act outside of what you consider normal, do you judge or help them? How does an adult who grew up in the middle of a world not conditioned for her behave? How does bullying affect adulthood? Having anxiety and an inability to connect: Eliz imagines! Creating a fantasy that borders on a parallel world where she has everything that in her real life she can get. A life that has hit her and left her with doubts about neurodiversity, depression, her sexuality and, most of all, loneliness because of her introversion. Eliz battles each day to find the strength to face a world full of people who don't see her as human and who take out their insecurities on her. That lacks empathy, and equal opportunity for those who think, process, and express themselves differently. 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 hoping 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 a song. 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 fashion 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. A boss she doesn't know how to talk to because she "thinks" she's interested in him. Add being monosyllabic and withdrawn. Come in and look at the mess that is in her head, hidden behind a desk answering phones. Eliz is repetitive, anxious, and full of insecurities. She is afraid of her shadow, kind of crazy, but with a good heart. Are you ready to see the world through her eyes? Be patient with her and give her a chance. © Registered in SAFE CREATIVE Code: 2304104018014©All rights reserved.

Whims of a Quiet Dreamer

50 parts Complete

In a bustling town where expectations weigh heavy and adulthood feels like an ill-fitting cloak, Sithu lives quietly, embracing a world of her own making. A whimsical soul with a heart full of stories, she drifts between the mundane and the fantastical, retreating into her imagination when reality feels too harsh. In a life where she can never quite relate to what it means to "grow up," Sithu discovers that perhaps there's more to her daydreams than just idle fantasy. Inspired by the magic of Narnia, this is a tale of quiet rebellion, of finding the courage to stay childlike in a world that demands otherwise-and of what happens when the fantastical becomes real.
