    Summary

    When Lydia Deetz, a professed loner, moved into her new apartment, she hadn’t expected to become friends with almost everyone else living in the building... and she definitely hadn’t predicted that after only three months of knowing him, she’d be marrying her sleazy but magnetic guitarist neighbor so he could add her to the cushy health insurance plan provided by his day job.

    But, hey– you gotta do what you gotta do to get free therapy!

    (Lydia and Betelgeuse are neighbors who get way too close, way too fast and speed run their relationship- while simultaneously not realizing that the other one is actually sexually attracted to/in love with them and not just making a long series of inappropriate jokes.)

    Summary

    Lydia Deetz was utterly alone.
    It was nearly a year to the day since her life had fallen apart, since the light had been snuffed out.
    Her mother was dead, and her pseudo-brother was presumed to be as well.

    Days before the anniversary of that horrible crash, Lydia runs into something strange in the graveyard: some sort of demon possessing the corpse of her brother. It has none of his memories, and it is slowly rotting.
    Together, the two of them must piece together just who Lawrence really was and what happened the night of the wreck before time runs out.

    Summary

    At age thirty-five, Lydia has her life more together than it's ever been... but when a mysterious "haunting" threatens to tank the career in the arts she's worked so hard for, she finds herself calling on an old friend for help. Little does she know, Betelgeuse is starting to get fed up with only being summoned when Lydia needs something.

    'Living' and working alongside one another to uncover the identity of the mysterious saboteur threatening to kill Lydia's job prospects, and arguably Lydia herself, dredges up unresolved issues for the duo causing them to reflect on their past and try to figure out what they mean to each other in the present.

    (They're roommates, they're solving a mystery, they want to jump one another's bones but they keep accidentally picking fights with each other instead. Original characters created because I needed suspects and victims for my whodunit, but the main focus is on Lydia and Beej's friendship/relationship.)
