    Summary

    It's a sunny day in Tokyo. The sky's clear, tourists roam the roadways, and all seems as well as can be. Taking advantage of the good weather and the beginning of their Summer break, Kessoku Band meets up in Shimokitazawa to jam out and have fun.

    But someone didn't come. Where, oh where, is Bocchi?

    It's that absence that forces them to contend with death, the meaning of their lives, and the nature of art.
    (CW: References for and depictions of suicide.)

    Summary

    Nicole and Jecka are not a good match.

    They enable their worst habits, hurt everyone around them, and can’t go a month without blowing up at each other. Their communication is terrible, their coping skills minimal, and their ‘solutions’ never actually fix or address anything close to the problem.

    They are, by any and all definitions, extremely toxic.

    But, really, none of that matters, because they’re gonna make it work no matter who or what they need to sacrifice to get there in the end. They’re not worth the effort? Says who? Not really for anybody else to decide, now is it?

    Being alone is bad enough.

    Being alone without the one person who really gets you, for better or mostly worse?

    Fuck that.

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya was exhausted. Physically, mentally, psychologically. Absolutely, one hundred percent done with everything. Seriously, all he’d wanted when he’d left the clinic for the day, was to go home, stuff his face with whatever he had in his empty fridge, and fall asleep uncomfortably on the couch with some random romcom playing on the tv.
    Really, that was it. That’s all he was asking for.
    He was not asking to find a strange, white haired man bleeding out in the alleyway of his apartment complex. Nor did he expect to accidently become the guy's sugar baby. But hey... he wasn't really complaining.

    NOW WITH COVER ART!
