Manchester, 2001.
Rain clings to the streets, music shakes the basements, and the city hums with neon, cigarettes, and cheap lager.
Ruby lives for Friday nights at Rockworld. Corsets, boots, smoke-filled rooms, and songs loud enough to drown out the week. By day she is just another voice in a call centre. By night she is alive, sharp, defiant, untouchable.
Jenny is her constant, a friend bound to her by sarcasm, bruises, and survival. Together they drift through Fab Café, The Ritz, and Piccadilly Gardens, chasing music, laughter, and the moments that make the grey city burn bright.
She Likes the Dark is a nostalgic dive into Manchester's alternative scene at the turn of the century, a story of music, survival, love, and the nights that change everything.

My Wildflower [H.S]
Underneath a sky scattered with stars, there's a story waiting to be told-a story of love, loss, and the strength it takes to find oneself. Julia didn't expect her world to shift when she opened the doors of her mother's flower shop one ordinary morning. Harry didn't expect to find solace in a small Italian town, far from the flashing lights of fame. But life has a way of bringing people together when they need it most, even if the journey is messy, complicated, and anything but perfect. This is a tale of finding beauty in the broken pieces, of daring to chase dreams, and of love that feels as vast and untouchable as the stars. Welcome to their story. COVER BY MY FAV: @LIVVSSTARS
Cacophony
Sydney didn't have much, but that was fine with her. She didn't need much. Growing up on the Washington coast in a lonely beach town, working quietly behind the scenes was what she was good at. Living on the beach was much less glamorous than most people imagine. Her home was a beat up old Winnebago that she had shared with her father until he passed. Her father had been a detached parent. He loved his daughter of course, but he was by no means an affectionate man. She had grown up fending for herself, working backstage at a bar that hosted live bands using a fake ID. After the death of her father she saw an ad for a guitar technician for a local Seattle band. A love of rock and roll had been the one thing that her and her dad had in common. Selling everything that she didn't need she packed up her pickup truck and travelled north to the city, leaving the sleepy town in her rear view mirror. She didn't expect to embark on what would become the adventure of a lifetime. For someone who had hardly left the town she grew up in, the opportunity to get paid to travel the country and listen to great music was a dream come true. The band became her family, and life on the road was a perfect fit for her. Chris Cornell instantly became Sydney's best friend in the whole world. They were in love, that was plain as day to anyone who paid attention. Yet, sometimes love isn't as simple as it should be. Sometimes, love hurts.

Saints Don't Survive Here: A Duff McKagan+ fanfiction
FINISHED AND COMPLEATED. She's all straight A's and sensible shoes. He's leather jackets, loud bass, and vodka for breakfast. When a rule-following good girl crosses paths with a reckless, 6'3" blonde rockstar who lives like every night is his last, sparks fly-and not the safe kind. "Lighten up, Miss Perfect. One drink won't kill you," he smirks, vodka in hand, eyes gleaming with mischief. "I don't drink," she replies, but her voice wavers as he leans in, all heat and danger and that maddeningly lazy grin. She knows he's trouble. Older. Wild. Addicted to chaos and charm in equal measure. But something about him makes her pulse race-and her carefully built world start to crack. If her parents knew she was even talking to someone like him, they'd lose their minds. But maybe, just maybe, that's exactly what she needs.Concluida

Polygamy: Flare Arc Part 2
Bright lights, cold lenses, and a contract inked in desperation force Flare into a world she doesn't understand - a world that demands everything she swore she'd never give. But the streets taught her hunger, and hunger makes you dangerous. What should have broken her sparks something else instead: a fire she didn't know she carried, a defiance that even Sam can't ignore. Every scene pulls her further from who she was, and deeper into who she's becoming. The question isn't whether she can survive this world. It's whether this world can survive her.
