sad, beautiful, tragic // j.r.b by sopranoeilish

~some things you just can't speak about.~ // hazel eloise finley's old english and frankly quite pretentious name was never released to public whenever she survived the shooting at her high school. not even after the paramedics took her away with a severe bullet wound to the calf or even whenever she drug and hopped herself outside for medical attention afterwards either. only known as the jane doe that survived a school shooting, and the years of physical therapy, permanent nerve damage and chronic pain proved to be the least of her worries. it took years of therapy, hospitalizations, and prescriptions for her to even feel ready to start college after high school. and whenever she did, much like her name, she was determined to bury it. despite the trauma she went on to become one of the most gifted music majors enrolled at the prestigious university in Nashville, TN, an honors student, a residential advisor, and slowly making her way to the student council someday. Though just coming into her sophomore year, a heavily tattooed literature major transfers into the room across from hers that throws everything off track. Julien Rose Baker infuriated her at first, not only because her friends and roommates were loud and obnoxious and stayed up all hours of the night playing loud music and probably doing anything but studying, but because she was better than her, in every sense of the word. sight reading music without missing a beat or a note, shredding her guitar in nearly every practice room, leaving most professors in awe of her vocal range, and not to mention the writings of hers read during some of the english classes the two shared. it was jealousy at its finest. though whenever an unexpected turn of events leaves hazel almost having no choice but to be vulnerable, something else besides avoiding her dorm neighbor might turn into something else. ~ TW for gun violence, ptsd, anxiety, depression, etc...

The Jay Train by mimisaraya1

The streets of New York are littered with people from all over the world, each person the main character of their own lifelong story that never ends.

Jay Simon thinks about this often as he scans the train cars absently. What is that woman thinking? Where is that guy going? Or what's he coming from? Is he happy? Scared? Angry? Crazy? Obviously he won't go up them and ask, but he can't help but wonder what a life outside of his disordered brain would feel like. Lulu Dawson has so much untapped potential and she doesn't even realize it. She is floating through life, petrified to lose anything and everyone, as she has already lost so much. She has a beautiful heart, but it's been damaged so fiercely that it feels impossible to trust anyone with it ever again. What happens when Jay locks eyes with this gorgeous, electric blue eyed blonde on a late night train to Manhattan? Do they look away and remain strangers? Or is it the beginning of something that neither of them could prepare for?

Victoria and Oliver's instant chemistry transcends their usual barriers, forging a connection neither expected.
