Gaya is a futuristic community where no one, except the government officials, have emotions. Unless, of course, you count the Selfish Machines who were immune to the anti-emotion treatments. Those who have emotions must be stoned publicly on their eighteenth birthday, for trying to destroy the community. Tark and Drella had been living undercover for seventeen years, trying to find a way to escape the twisted community in which they live. They believe they've found hope in something called the Sky Under the Sea, a silly rumor that might actually be true, where people are allowed to have emotions. Their research is interrupted, however, when a suspicious Selfish Machine escapes her community and finds Tark and Drella. A love triangle emerges, and jealousy begins when Tark chooses Skyla to help him research escape instead of Drella. Do they escape Gaya? Does the Sky Under the Sea exist? And who exactly is Skyla? NOTE: This is the stageplay version. I plan on writing a novel version one day.

Alex Thompson was due to marry her high school sweet heart Eric Ramirez. Period. That's it. It's about as exciting as her life ever got really. She had a job, a good job but an unconscious reality was that she was bored. She had her back blown out once every three months, if that, and an overbearing mother who made her life hell. *enter Mitch* Eve 'Mitch' Mitchell. An outgoing, strong minded, independent, raging homosexual, lover to all, charming British soul. They meet by accident after a tough day at the office for Alex. A mistaken identity was all it took for a tiny little kiss. A moment blown all out of proportion for the Christian-bred Miss Thompson and her life turns more miserable than she anticipated for every time she turned around...Mitch was there behind her. Something about Mitch was new and fresh and her soul was just what Alex needed (little did she know). Secrets from the past are brought to the surface. A sad ending to a young lady's life. A realisation that family isn't always blood related. Alcohol isn't a medicine. Violence isn't a key. Hearts were never meant to be broken. Two things to take away: you never know what is going on in someone's head and the most important thing...you never know what happens behind closed doors. A/N just a random story about two people who meet accidentally. Plays with gender norms and very inclusive of LGBTQ (being a member myself). Could be triggering I'm not sure as some identity questions are thrown around. It does include smoking, drinking, some homophobia, profanities, violence and smut. Also anything in brackets with A/N means authors note and that's just me leaving a little comment. Enjoy...
