    Summary

    The first year of high school doesn't start well for Isak Valtersen. His two best (and only) friends, Jonas and Eva, are dating, leaving him frightened that he is left entirely alone in the world. At home, he can see every day how his own family is falling apart with his mother's mental health. Yet his greatest fears are of himself. Of the heart pounding he feels when he looks at Jonas, of the jealousy he feels of Eva, and of the devastating consequences if his parents knew about these emotions.

    But as he reflects on how his world is shattering into pieces, he decides to give himself at least a little freedom. When everything's falling apart, he wants to pitch in and comes out. And instead of expected disaster he finds that his friends love him regardless, and the same is equally true of his parents. But even when the world no longer is collapsing, he can feel how it stopped. That despite all the lucky coincidences, he remains unhappy and lonely, and that he will always remain so.

    Summary

    There is an infinite number of parallel universes. In most of them (if the concept of “most” can be valid for infinity), Isak and Even are star-crossed lovers whose love brings hope to everyone around them. In a minority of them, their love is stained with toxicity and abuse. In most universes, Isak is a proud and self-accepting young gay man. In a minority of them, Isak still struggles with his insecurity and his own prejudices.

    There are anomalous universes too, like the one where Isak’s interest in girls is pretty genuine but where he’s still a little queer. Like one where Isak will never meet Even, but instead, his lack of faith in love starts to melt on the Arctic Circle, where he meets a boy who believes in fate and enchantment. This story is from this peculiar universe.

    A rather lighthearted and angst-free story about Isak and his new classmate Finn. Too many conversations about irrationality, Edvard Munch, and food, and too many random references to the topography of Oslo. This is the first text of this length I have ever written, so my writing skills aren’t worth much, not to mention that English isn’t my first language. Still, I hope you enjoy the story.

    Summary

    ‘Only you can feel, what you feel.’ That is what said Isak to Even. But, it's true about him too?

    Isak and Even are camping in Jotunheim Mountains - great opportunity for Even to talk about old myths. But Isak isn't afraid of giants, he is afraid of pettiness and envy.

    Summary

    When I watched the very last episode of SKAM I was thinking about two gay guys in Morroco - what needs to be considered, what can happen...So, I was tried to „reconstruct“ it – the first two chapters deal with days after Sana´s eid. The next chapter is going to be finally in Marrakesh.

    It´s my first fan fiction and my first text in English, so I'm sorry for mistakes and overall quality :-) First two chapters are largely rewritten from their first versions - it´s longer, little more consistent, and with fewer errors (at least I hope).
