Summary
“Who was he when all answers of his life lay buried beneath the weight of a world?
He was nobody.
And nobody would ever truly know him.
Not even himself.
All he had was his name and not even that was something he could freely share with others. And a sister—a twin—whose absence cut deeper than any sword could ever reach.”
OR
The summer in which Aether falls into a b-rated horror novel that seemingly has treacherous levels of sentience and a hidden agenda of its own, faces a doomed narrative loop, tries (and fails) to hide from the truth he’s running from, and maybe…just maybe, falls in love? Everything will surely work out in the end, after all, he is a Descender. He’s still a hero…right?

Summary
“We do this together.” A voice reverberated across the cosmos, more felt than heard, scratchy white noise spilled from chapped lips instead of words uttered in any human language. Its cadence is undefinable as if spoken into the vacuum of space. As if spoken to the universe itself.
Two beings were entwined in an epicenter of strange geometry, dizzying constellations flickering in and out of existence. Flashes of vivid golds and blues swirled in response to the disruption of its splendid solitude. Twin stars accelerating toward the vast unknown. There is no name for this, no name for them.
Just shared breaths.
A feeling of devotion and love so deep it swelled around them.
The sensation of being ripped apart and pulled together as if by magnetism. By fate.
A warm hand, a soft gaze, then nothing.

Summary
“Can I… will you be my partner? Properly?”
“Is that not unfair to you?” Aether had a slightly pained expression on his face as he sat up properly, thighs pressed against Lyney’s. The other man laced their fingers together, laying their joined hands on his own thigh.
“It never was. But even less so now, because I won’t let you be alone anymore,” Lyney said seriously. “I should have asked when you kissed me the first time. I shouldn’t have let you walk away from me.”
“I left my heart with you.” Aether leaned closer, brushing his nose against Lyney’s cheek.

Summary
The feeling hadn't left.
Neo rubbed his wrist, the phantom burn still tingling beneath the skin. He looked at Trinity, seeing the concern in her eyes, the love she offered so freely.
He wanted to tell her. He wanted to say that he had looked into the face of his enemy and seen a reflection of himself. He wanted to say that he was no longer alone in his head.
He couldn't.

Summary
Michael's always had a thing for music, and the music in this new city is good. The people he meets? Significantly less good, as far as his mother is concerned. Far from home and his childhood friend, Michael finds himself trapped like a moth in a web and drawn inexorably toward the one person he knows he should avoid: David. As he grows closer with the strange, nocturnal blond he finds himself pulled out of the web and into the mouth of the spider; or in this case, vampire.
Really, he just wanted to play the guitar.
