The Obscure Downsides of Fame
"Everything is temporary." I should feel better soon. I had to believe that. "Right," Nolan said, finally smiling again. "Everything is temporary, except for us." ♫ ♫ ♫ ᴏᴀᴋʟᴇʏ ᴄᴀʀʀɪʟʟᴏ is everything you think your favorite pop star is. Kind, sensitive, and talented. Except there's one more thing: he's human, and that comes with having feelings. Oakley especially has a lot of them, but he's sure romantic love isn't one in his rotation, to the dismay of his record label. ɴᴏʟᴀɴ ᴍᴜʟʟᴇɴ grew up how you might believe your darling child actor would grow up. Repressed, burnt out, and maybe a little traumatized. Luckily for him, he cleaned up well during his hiatus, and he's ready to return to the one thing he's familiar with. When their paths cross, they find an understanding they could've only dreamed of. But learning how to love and be loved proves to be difficult when millions are watching your every move. ♫ ♫ ♫ #1 in 'boyxboy' #1 in 'freethelgbt' #3 in 'comingofage' {TW}: anxiety and panic attacks, depession, brief mentions of abusive relationships, brief mentions of drug abuse, disordered eatingComplete

Hiraeth: Blackout (I)
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.Complete
His Heart to Love
"Been about you, since I met you and imma keep it that way" You're special to me. You're the only one who I wouldn't mind losing sleep for, the only one who I can never get tired of talking to, and the only one who crosses my mind constantly throughout the day. You're the only one who can make me smile without trying, bring down my mood without the intention to and affect my emotions with every action of yours. I can't explain with just words how much you mean to me, but you're the only one I'm afraid of losing and the one I want to keep in my life. So, please don't leave me. ~April 18, 2021 ~July 21, 2021 Rankings: #4 in mentaldisorder 9/16/2021 #6 in highschoolsweethearts 9/16/2021 #38 in urban 9/16/2021 #14 in blacklove 9/16/2021 #5 in angerissues 9/16/2021 #12 in urbanromance 9/16/2021 #3 in bwbm 9/16/2021 #20 in contemporarylit 9/16/2021 #29 in urbanstory 9/16/2021 #2 in africanamerican 9/16/2021Complete
