Summary
You’re millions of miles away from home. Away from the life you had before you went in search of your mom. The people you knew, the job you had, the apartment that probably sat with the corpses of your plants and dust forming on it's countertops. When you had given it thought in the past, you did miss your best friend. But this life is infinitely more worth living than the one you left behind.
So when Rick tells you to get some sleep, on an abandoned alien planet, on the run from the Galactic Dictatorship that wants you dead, you comply. You’re fucking exhausted.
And when he calls you baby, none of it even matters. Your home isn’t a place anymore.

Summary
The Anomaly are about to be the new hot topic in music, and Jess is about to embark on the most thrilling and exhausting experience of her life. Maybe it isn't what she pictured for herself at her age, and maybe fame isn't exactly what she thought it'd be. However, between past failures, a fleeting present, and a dissolving future, she finally allows herself to indulge in the one thing she shouldn't.
She wishes for bigger things.

Summary
-abandoned work-
His eyes looked at you with hope, and they swallowed you whole. How could you possibly say no?
“Yeah, um… Sure.” You gave him a smile, dropping your coffee by the side of your camper, following as he waved you in the direction of the beat.
You didn't know much about these people, but you knew the next few weeks were bound to be something you hadn't experienced before.
You barely knew just how right you were.
-- Angst/slow burn about 2D and my OC, from reader's perspective. ---

Summary
Presque Vu
(n.) almost remembered
- the feeling of being on the brink of a realization but never quite having a breakthrough.His fingers curled and uncurled around the air thoughtlessly, his brow twitching with a sticky, feverish trepidation that had nothing to do with Gavin Reed's hostility and everything to do with the dark, heavy circles under the girl's mascara smeared eyes and sickly pale skin. His mouth had gone frighteningly dry, tongue thick and clumsy, pressed up against the back of his perfect teeth as an unfamiliar feeling prickled at the base of his spine.
She took a sip of her stale coffee and continued to avoid his gaze, aggressively evasive, and Connor had the inexplicable, nauseating realization that the feeling gnawing at the back of his head was recognition.
Which was strange, because Connor had never seen her before.

Summary
“Your faith in me in spite of our lack of previous cooperation is commendable, Detective.” Smiles Connor.
“Yeah, well, I’ve been told you’re incredibly. . . thorough.”
Actually, you’d heard he sticks his fingers into unknown specimens and licks them clean, but you don’t say that. Your gaze does drift to the hands gripping the wheel curiously, sizing up the digits. The android, or, the man, beside you wasn’t the first you’d encountered — in the modern world, they live freely and for the majority at peace. Revolutionized to adapt, to join society. After the Uprising, through some trial and error, androids were given the lives they so desire.
But none like Connor. None made just as interesting.

Summary
You and Dan didn't work out.
Deep down, you'd both always known this would be the case. It was nobody's fault, really, but in the interest of self-preservation, you cut all ties with him. Nineteen years swept under the rug.
But it's five years later and an exploding water pipe, of all things, is forcing him back into your life. You couldn't be more ashamed of how terrified you are. Are you strong enough to handle a reunion with the man who'd once been the most important person in your world? What about when feelings you'd long since banished begin to stir once again?
