Gregory is a junkie, simple as that. He began using drugs at the age of nineteen, when he decided to befriend the wrong group of people at college, and ended up becoming one of them. Although he has got a serious addiction problem, Greg is quite the catch. He's a musician and is working on forming a band, he's actually quite intelligent and his personality really makes up for the way he's wasting his life away. When Greg runs into his former high school girlfriend, Isabella, the twenty-seven year old decides that it's time for change, time to organize his life and finally settle down. But quitting drugs is easier said than done.

The World According to Susie (stemxfem)
At 23, Susie feels like the poster child for "I Should've Dropped Out Years Ago." Trapped in the endless purgatory of university life, she's basically a hermit who's seen the vibrant social scene from afar-like a documentary on Netflix she didn't feel cool enough to click on. Her one lifeline? Rina, her ride-or-die best friend, who helps Susie survive the chaos of classes, friendships, and Susie's questionable romantic decisions. Between stressing over midterms and obsessing over whether Georgia's text messages have hidden meanings (spoiler: they don't), Susie shares her trials and tribulations with equal parts melodrama and accidental comedy. From awkwardly trying to "break out of her shell" to realizing that even hermits need human connection, Susie's journey is full of cringe-worthy yet heartfelt moments. Through it all, she learns that life outside her comfort zone isn't as terrifying as it seems-though it might require dragging Rina into a Halloween party or surviving a lab with her mortal enemy. With a mix of laughter, tears, and a lot of snacks, Susie's story shows that college isn't just about grades; it's about finding yourself, your people, and maybe your future. But, you know, after midterms.
