Collateral She was never the target. She was collateral. Naomi Reyes has one thing left of her father's - a bakery standing on land a rich family wants gone. When Ethan Marsh walks in offering to fix her website, she doesn't know he was sent there. Paid there. Told to get close, get trusted, and walk away before the town vote - before it costs him anything. He wasn't supposed to remember how she takes her coffee. He wasn't supposed to still be there at dawn. By the time she finds the truth sitting in his phone, it's too late to ask if any of it was real. The only question left - what is she willing to burn down to find out?

To everyone on campus, Jungkook and Jimin are the ultimate Ride-or-Die duo-the gold standard of an inseparable brotherhood. But behind the door of Room , they live by a No-Label Pact, rebranding their secret intimacy as a mere "biological necessity." By day, they are just friends; by night, they are a blurred line. There are no flowers or confessions-just a high-intensity connection they've convinced themselves is purely functional. It's a high-stakes Tactical Standoff: two best friends who know every inch of each other's bodies, yet remain the masters of staying "unbothered."

Montrose Institute doesn't accept applications. It finds you. Hera just wanted wifi and a nap. Miles just wanted 200 followers. Valkyrie just wanted her card to go through. Julian just wanted his socks to match, for once. Sylvie just wanted to bake in peace. Instead, they got one exploded baking exhibition, a 100+ year old cereal box with an attitude problem (his name is Jake, he's rude, don't ask), and five brand new suspects in a police interrogation before any of them even started high school. Magic is real. Nobody consented to this. And the cereal box is judging you specifically. Montrose was never really a school. It's a countdown - and it's been ticking since long before they walked in.

Between balancing a brutal university schedule, fighting for her life in economics seminars, and teaching afternoon classes, twenty-year-old Y/N does not have the time, energy, or brain cells to care about cricket. So, when she lands a gig as a private dance instructor for little Amayra Sharma, she views the massive Sharma villa as strictly a workplace. To the rest of the world, Abhishek Sharma is the explosive cricket star completely dominating everyone's social media feeds. To Y/N, he's just a walking distraction who blocks her Bluetooth speaker signal and takes up way too much space on the living room couch. Besides, according to her insta FYP, he's already taken. With viral fan edits pointing out his identical matching bracelet with actress Mahira Sharma, Y/N knows exactly where to draw her professional boundaries. She wants absolutely zero part in messy celebrity PR tea. But as casual nods turn into low-key kitchen banter, and chaotic family tea times force their two completely different worlds together, the line between "just my student's Mamu" and something more begins to blur. The internet might have its theories, but the real story is happening completely off-camera.

HASIL PEMIKIRAN SENDIRI JANGAN COPY PASTE !!! "Kita Cuma Mantan... Kok Kayak DLC yang Gak Bisa Di-Uninstall?" Aster Kaivan dan Elara Naresha adalah definisi hubungan yang gagal selesai. Mereka putus karena satu kesalahpahaman yang diperparah oleh kebiasaan Aster memilih diam daripada menjelaskan. Sejak hari itu, status mereka memang berubah menjadi mantan, tetapi hati mereka seolah lupa ikut berpisah. Mereka masih saling mengkhawatirkan, masih menjadi orang pertama yang datang ketika salah satunya kesulitan, masih saling membela tanpa diminta, bahkan masih hafal kebiasaan kecil satu sama lain. Lucunya, mereka terus bersikeras bahwa semua itu hanyalah bentuk kepedulian biasa. Ketika Aster dan Elara mencoba membuka hati untuk orang baru, semuanya justru menjadi semakin rumit. Keano dan Lyra perlahan menyadari bahwa mereka tidak sedang bersaing dengan mantan, melainkan dengan seseorang yang diam-diam masih menjadi rumah bagi hati masing-masing. Hubungan baru itu pun kandas sebelum sempat diberi nama. Di tengah kekacauan hidup, obrolan absurd, meme receh, teori konspirasi yang tidak masuk akal, dan candaan khas Gen Z yang selalu berhasil mengubah tangis menjadi tawa, Aster dan Elara terus berjalan berdampingan tanpa sadar bahwa mereka tidak pernah benar-benar melepaskan satu sama lain. Hingga suatu malam, setelah sama-sama ditinggalkan oleh orang baru, mereka akhirnya berani melakukan percakapan yang selama ini selalu dihindari. Untuk pertama kalinya, Aster mengungkap alasan di balik silent treatment yang menghancurkan hubungan mereka dulu. Namun pengakuan itu justru melahirkan satu pertanyaan yang paling menyakitkan. "Kalau memang kita masih saling mencintai... kenapa baru sekarang kamu menjelaskan semuanya?" Sebuah novel romance-komedi Gen Z yang dipenuhi dialog absurd, tingkah konyol yang bikin tertawa, dan kisah tentang dua orang yang mengira mereka sudah move on, padahal hati mereka hanya sedang berpura-pura lupa jalan pulang. @sofykhana

Author's Note / Introduction (Read Me First!) Hey everyone! Welcome to The Economics of Love 🥂✨ I wrote this guide because I got tired of the same generic, copy-and-pasted dating advice that shows up everywhere online. No, you are not crazy for losing that initial "spark," and no, your ex was not some mysterious puzzle - sometimes people are simply reacting to human psychology, expectations, and the realities of modern relationships. In this book, we'll look at love through a completely different lens: the witty, complicated, and sometimes brutal world of economics. Whether you're single and navigating the digital dating scene, in a relationship and trying to avoid falling into a rut, or healing from heartbreak, this book is for you. If something in these pages speaks to you, I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. And if you enjoy the book, please tap the Star/Vote button to help it reach more readers. New chapters will be posted on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. So settle in, stay curious, and let's begin. - Your Ultimate Guide

Bagaimana rasanya tumbuh tanpa pernah tahu alasan ayahmu menghilang dari hidupmu? Sejak berusia tiga tahun, Elara Claranatasya hanya mengenal ayahnya melalui kenangan yang samar. Ibunya memilih pergi tanpa pernah menjelaskan apa yang sebenarnya terjadi, meninggalkan Elara dengan satu pertanyaan yang terus ia simpan hingga dewasa. Meski dikenal sebagai gadis yang cerdas, ceria, dan selalu berhasil membuat orang di sekitarnya tertawa, tak seorang pun tahu bahwa di balik senyumnya, Elara diam-diam masih berharap bisa bertemu kembali dengan sosok yang paling ia rindukan. Di sisi lain, Fahreyza Maximilian adalah cowok tampan yang dikenal sebagai troublemaker. Di balik semua kekacauan yang ia ciptakan, Rey hanya sedang memperjuangkan satu mimpi yang tak pernah mendapat restu keluarganya-menjadi seorang aktor seperti sang kakek. Takdir mempertemukan mereka lewat sebuah misi yang seharusnya sederhana. Elara hanya berniat membantu sahabatnya mencari bukti perselingkuhan sang pacar. Untuk itu, ia harus mendekati Rey, sahabat paling dekat laki-laki tersebut. Namun tanpa pernah ia duga, langkah kecil itu justru membawanya pada petunjuk demi petunjuk yang selama ini ia cari. Sedikit demi sedikit, kepingan masa lalu yang selama bertahun-tahun terasa kosong mulai tersusun. Hingga Elara menyadari bahwa keluarga Rey ternyata memiliki jawaban atas pertanyaan yang sejak kecil tak pernah bisa ia temukan. Di tengah pencariannya menemukan sang ayah, Elara juga menemukan seseorang yang perlahan mengajarkannya arti rumah. Namun, sanggupkah ia tetap menggenggam Rey ketika kebenaran akhirnya terungkap? Karena terkadang... Tuhan tidak mempertemukan seseorang hanya untuk menghadirkan cinta. Ada pertemuan yang sengaja diciptakan sebagai jalan pulang atau mengajarkan sebuah kehilangan.

Promoted By: By: Erwin Frederick L. Galgo "To the world, she is a flawless Blade Angel. To him, she is his Sweet Honeybee." For twenty-six years, Miles lived in the quiet corners of Oakland, California, hiding behind his sketchbook. Born with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), he spent his life being called a "weirdo" and a "freak," constantly crushed by the pressure from his peers and parents to be normal, find a job, and fit into a neurotypical world. He believed he was completely undesirable. Then came February 2026. Watching the TV broadcast of the Milan Winter Olympics, Miles is transfixed by Alysa Liu-the vibrant, bubbly figure skater who just ended America's gold medal drought. When Alysa returns home to his neighborhood to escape the suffocating glare of fame, a chance encounter on a front porch changes everything. Swept up as the official artist for her nationwide tour, Miles is thrust into the high-stakes, glittering world of elite figure skating. But the ice isn't always graceful. Facing intense bullying, cruel whispers, and exclusion from Team USA's elite skaters like Amber Glenn and Isabeau Levito, Miles finds himself ready to retreat into the dark. But Alysa isn't just an Olympic champion; she is his fierce protector. Ready to risk her own career to defend her "Soldier Bee," Alysa shows Miles that his unique mind isn't a flaw-it's a masterpiece. Set to a soundtrack of late-night disco, shared noise-canceling headphones, and the quiet comfort of cartoons during midnight thunderstorms, this is a heartwarming Gen Z romance about finding a safe haven when the rest of the world gets too loud.

I will do my best to not make the characters totally fanon, however I will have to deviate from their cannon selves in places (or they'd just kill you immediately). Also, as a Marble Hornets fan, I am aware that Masky and Hoodie are not proxies canonically. However, for the purpose of this story they will be. I will also be using characters from the series EverymanHYBRID- so if you don't know what this is then I recommend doing a quick search as parts of this story will be written under the assumption you understand what I'm referencing. The EverymanHYBRID channel and series is still up on YouTube but is fairly complex to understand (I'm talking from pure personal experience and hours of confusion myself) so I'd recommend Night Mind's series that explains the series in-depth (though even after watching it twice I'm still confused in places). ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─── TW: gore, violence, blood, toxic relationships, death, murder, bad language/cursing, unsettling descriptions, men being men, bodily damage, MAYBE implied NSFW (though nothing at all explicit) etc... there will NOT be a TW at the start of each chapter, so be warned! If any of these topics are triggering for you, please no not read.

In an era of casual situationships, fleeting flings and easy goodbyes, Ishan thought he had found the real deal. But when his one-year relationship shatters, so does his ego. Playing it cool while waiting for his ex to crawl back, he is blindsided to find she has already moved on. Drowning in bitter resentment and a creeping depression, Ishan's world is spinning out of control. ​Then, a second shock hits. His grandmother, Rukmini---his lifelong solace and protective shield---collapses. Rushing back to his hometown of Prayagraj, consumed by guilt for neglecting her, Ishan finds a woman on her deathbed. ​Rukmini senses the unspoken turmoil in her grandson's heart. Knowing words won't heal his cynicism, she hands him a sealed envelope with one final dying wish: ​​​​​​"Deliver this, and bring back a reply before I takes my last breath." ​The recipient? Her true love. The address? He have to find. Ishan's world tilts. Blinded by the raw agony of his own fresh heartbreak, he doesn't stop to consider the rigid, forced social realities of 1968. He doesn't see a tragic end of young love; he only sees a betrayal that mirrors his own pain. "How can she thought of any other man instead of grandpa?" ​Driven by a mix of anger, curiosity, and a desperate need to confront this ghost from the past, Ishan tracks the address through the ancient, narrow lanes of Ayodhya--- only to hit a terrifying dead end that shatters everything he thought he knew. ​Join Ishan on a soul-stirring journey across time, grief, and unhealed wounds. As the secrets of the past unspool along the banks of the Ganga, will The 24th Letter permanently break his faith in relationships, or will it teach a restless Gen-Z heart what it truly means to love? Happy Reading ❣️❣️ ​

This book addresses all the struggles Gen Z is currently facing. It identifies many of our problems and explores a variety of solutions we can use to improve our circumstances. Despite its declaration that Boomers are a problem, its not an attack on their generation, but rather an example we can use to avoid the bad reputation they have received. We don't want the generations after us to see us as selfish or dismissive of the challenges they inherited. It also points out the fact that we have many flaws and bad habits that we need to fix. I hope you enjoy my authentic and uncensored delivery of this message. Thank you for reading!

A hidden system begins to break the world's control. No identity. No limits. No trace. APS: System Override is a cyberpunk tech thriller where power shifts silently-and nothing is what it seems. The system doesn't exist.

Manggung di festival keren? Impian semua band indie. Tapi bagi D'Bengal Band-Viona (vokalis nekat), Uchu (drummer jompo penakut), dan Ulil (gitaris yang merangkap fotografer)-impian itu harus tertunda gara-gara agenda makrab kampus di Gunung Papandayan. Niatnya cuma mau healing sambil cari inspirasi lagu, mereka malah kesasar masuk ke Parakan Leungit-dimensi gaib yang berisi entitas penunggu gunung berkebaya lurik hingga setan wajah rata. Modal mereka buat bertahan hidup cuma dua: seutas tali webbing lentur biar gak saling terpisah, dan stok permen kojek di kantong celana. Saat taruhannya adalah nyawa, bisakah diplomasi sampah plastik dan logika Gen-Z menyelamatkan mereka dari murkanya penguasa alam gaib? Atau D'Bengal justru bakal merilis album pertama mereka langsung dari alam baka? "Horornya bikin merinding, kelakuannya bikin jantungan."

Have you found yourself kicked out because of your lifestyle? Have you found yourself rejected from your so called friends and family? I am here to say that life without them is not so bad.

I would like to give you a practical survival guide to help you feel less alone. Not all our stories are the same, and we will not choose the same methods, but I will share mine in hopes that it makes you feel less alone. There is strength in numbers after all. ;)
