    Summary

    You’re unemployed.

    At first, this was kind of nice. A little break. Some time to breathe. Maybe a moment of self-reflection.

    But then self-reflection turned into self-loathing, which turned into checking your bank account and realizing that, at this rate, you’re either going to have to start an OnlyFans or learn how to fight a raccoon for discarded sandwiches behind a McDonald’s.

    You have applied to every job imaginable.

    You are now one rejection email away from taking it personally .

    You start waking up every morning with an unhinged determination to get a job —any job—only for it to end the same way every night: you, doom-scrolling LinkedIn, wondering if you should just embrace the inevitable and become a cryptid that haunts the local library.

    And then—The Audacity.

    One moment, you’re elbow-deep in a job board, mindlessly clicking “Apply” on anything that doesn’t require a PhD or the ability to code. The next, you see it:

    “Executive Assistant to the CEO.”

    Summary

    Sometimes, Luna thinks as she stares up at the dark sky, furiously whipping tendrils of pale hair reaching up into the cloudy expanse above like desperate fingers scrabbling for a hold, sometimes it would be nice to properly say goodbye.

    Her wand is a comforting weight in her hand as she smashes into the cobbled-stone below.

    And then the Nargles begin singing.

    Summary

    "Spock! I'm sorry! You don't deserve to have to go through all that!"

    "Y-Yet you believe that you do? You have this strong belief in empathy for others, though do not apply it to your own self."

    [Gender-Neutral-Reader x Spock comfort fic. Past trauma is not described, so specifics about reader are very vague/neutral hopefully allowing everyone to enjoy reading.

    Warnings and Disclaimers: This has in depth descriptions of mental health issues (a lot of negative self talk in early chapters that may be triggering), self harm (not anything heavy but still body abuse), and of panic attacks. These won't be experienced the same for everyone so this is just my take.

    As a sufferer myself, in no way when writing this am I meaning to romanticise or belittle mental health struggles. It is an ongoing battle that does not have a simple solution. I write about topics in hope that I can bring at least a little bit of comfort to others who are struggling with similar issues.]

    Summary

    Visiting Volterra as our last stop was supposed to be a nice ending, to a trip through Tuscany with my friends. Instead it turned into a nightmare. A nightmare that I couldn't seem to wake up from, even though it was utterly surreal. Joking with your friends that you would love to meet a vampire, didn't mean that you would actually want that to happen!
