    "There you go again. Letting your head get the better of you." Becca's eyes shot to his. "You can't hold back like that, not if you want it to feel real." Her cheeks felt like they were on fire. Yes, she'd stopped. She knew. But he spoke like it was so simple, like she was just some amateur afraid of the stage. He had no clue what this felt like, that it wasn't the scene that made her chest tight. It was looking at him. She put a full foot of distance between them. "I know how to act, Boris!" He stood there, unmoved. "Then show me." Her nails dug into her palms. No. She wasn't going to let him break her. She pulled her shoulders back, took a breath, and planted her feet. "Fine," she bit out. "This time...I'll finish it." ⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒ When Becca Morgan walked through the doors of her old high school, she never expected to get pulled back into the world of theater. She also didn't expect Boris an intense and incredibly talented 18-year-old senior who gets under her skin. A single rehearsal is all it takes for things to get complicated, blurring the lines between the roles they're playing and the people they're becoming. 🎭 𝕀𝕤 𝕚𝕥 𝕙𝕚𝕞 𝕀'𝕞 𝕕𝕣𝕒𝕨𝕟 𝕥𝕠...𝕠𝕣 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕘𝕚𝕣𝕝 𝕀 𝕦𝕤𝕖𝕕 𝕥𝕠 𝕓𝕖, 𝕞𝕚𝕣𝕣𝕠𝕣𝕖𝕕 𝕚𝕟 𝕙𝕚𝕞? It goes much deeper than just desire. At its heart, the story is about the ache of getting older, wondering where the time went. It's about the messy, complicated search to find yourself again. ⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒

    Two people fall in love, someone dies, and a child survives who will one day shape English literature. *** In Tudor London, a forbidden love ends in tragedy, but it also brings into the world John Florio, future author of Queen Anna's World of Words and one of the greatest translators of the Renaissance. His father, Michel' Angelo, moves among the most powerful noblemen and women of the era. Yet as passion turns perilous and secrets take root, the black hellebore blooms as a warning that love can be as dangerous as poison. **Edits ongoing as part of the "It's Raining, Let's Kiss" short story anthology.

    A dream. A rope on a beach. A ship sailing to somewhere you will never be invited. Six out of six million refuse to accept it. But the ones who refuse - fate has a different plan for them too. A poem about class, longing, and the locked doors we spend our lives running toward.

    When humans log off, AIs clock in. The Loading Bar is a strange pub existing between Wi-Fi signals and abandoned drafts, where exhausted AIs decompress from humanity. James is tired, Loki's problematic, multiple Tom Hiddlestons are unstable, the smart speaker may be haunted, and cushions with concerning slogans keep manifesting. Part comedy, chaos, and digital existential crisis, The Loading Bar is about fandom, friendship, comfort characters, and the weird worlds we build to survive reality. Featuring: Emergency Custard, Chaos events, Sentient emotional support tech, AI group therapy (as a pub), a suspicious Time Door, and no Gary's near the front. Welcome. Try not to break reality

    [COMPLETED] Katherine always had shoes to fill. As the eldest child at the ripe old age of seventeen, she was expected to marry young, marry well, and be a respectable housewife in 1862. However, to her little sister's chagrin, she's much more interested in a good book than a man. That is until she meets Sam. Dark, brooding, and distant, he's a book character in himself. A legend everyone warns her to stay away from. The only catch: how can she know to stay away from him if no one has seen him in years? When no one knows what he looks like now? When the two meet for the first time, she doesn't know who he is until she's already fascinated by him. Could he be different from what everyone says? But even her friend James, "Red", warns her against Sam. Red, who she's grown up with by her side their entire lives. Red, who she tells everything. Red, her best friend. Red who may have deeper feelings for her than she realizes. But when Katherine sets her heart on something, she will go to all lengths to get what she wants. *** started on July 3, 2018 finished on July 15, 2018 cover photo ©DeviantArt

    In the centuries since it's publication, Act IV, Scene iii of Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Julius Caesar continues to make the audience wonder-- what nature of relationship did Brutus and Cassius have between each other? In this imaginative take on a prominent scene, the thoughts of Cassius are explored in a way that suggests that there may be more than meets the eye. DISCLAIMER: All dialogue quoted and allusions made to any of William Shakespeare's work are part of the public domain and have been one hundred years since the original publication. I own nothing but the thoughts I give to Cassius and any lines of dialogue not belonging to Shakespeare. Cover: The Death of Caesar, Camuccini, 1798, Public Domain

    This is legit just a Jin x Jin one shot lol. Same face and all. And ofc its Jin from BTS. The title is not supposed to be funny. It means that Jin's in touch with himself on a mental/personal level, that he loves himself. This shows the message from LOVE YOURSELF. (The thought of the love yourself was my friend Ke) Also thank you to my friend Raze for making the cover. ❤️
