    Bookmarker's Notes

    13/10 no notes I’ve never been more mortified for Hunter while simultaneously pleased with the chaos

    Summary

    Hunter Wittebane is a top student at NYU Stern Business school in the 90s — academically that is. Unfortunately, past trauma and social anxiety has kept him from succeeding in a way that his uncle — a mogul in the Christian Music Industry— finds acceptable.

    Willow Park is also a senior undergrad (also at NYU) who manages the flower booth at her fathers’ four bodegas (Parks on the Park). As graduation approaches she has hoped to get accepted into a competitive Masters for Environmental Science -- during the day that is.

    At night she’s the singer/bassist for the underground punk band The Emeralds.

    When Hunter messes up the last of many disastrous interviews for a summer internship, he stumbles into The Owl House, a famous East Village rock club, rained on and desperate to find a payphone.

    What he discovers is the key to his past, present and future.

    And maybe even a chance at love.

    Summary

    **Contains major spoilers for Sweet Child O' Mine! If you haven't finished that, this story probably won't make a lot of sense. **

    "I want to be strong and wise to protect everyone I love. And if anyone gets in my way, they'll feel the sting of defeat."

    At 15 years old, Willow Park fell in love with a kind and gentle boy. But the boy in question had spent his life fashioned as a weapon and abused by the only person he'd had.

    Belos was dead, but there were others who had stood by and enabled Hunter's abuse -- so, in a fit of rage Willow had made a bad call.

    Now, at age 25, Willow Noceda-Park has a life she loves. She's a flyer derby coach, a professor at one of the most prestigious Plant Magic Conservatories on the Boiling Isles.

    And at home? Willow and Hunter are FINALLY enjoying their lives as parents to their seven month old daughter.

    But the past just won't stay buried, and some mistakes are about to catch up with them both.

    Will update tags as I go along.

    Complete.

    Summary

    "What's a seizure?" he asked.

    "It's like–" She visibly fumbled for words. "Like you pass out and start shaking!"

    "Oh," he replied. He remembered he'd been reading a book and looked around for it. "Yeah. That happens sometimes."

    "That happens sometimes?!" she repeated incredulously.

    Summary

    Gus dropped his face back into his hands. "Great. Now I'm going to have to ask Camila, and–"

    "Hey!" Hunter interrupted him. "You don't have to ask Mrs. Noceda anything! I can do it. Just tell me what I'm doing and I'll do it. What's a tampon?"

    OR: Hunter is a little confused, but he's got the spirit.
