    Summary

    this is an obligatory sbi foster au

     

    While obligatory, this series challenges a few pervasive narratives and hopes to rewrite foster aus as a concept through radical acceptance, diversity, and realistic healing.

    Most people writing foster aus have no idea what they're doing. And tbf- that's okay. Most people aren't reading foster aus for accuracy. But as someone who is knowledgable about these systems and the trauma of foster care, I really wanted to see an au that tackled these concepts head on. So I did it myself.

    Thus, encompass was born, a foster au that tackles topics such as
    -disability
    -neurodiversity
    -queer identities
    -self harm and recovery
    -abuse cycles
    -intersex identities
    -how the foster system actually works
    -guilt, shame, and pride
    -and so much more

    Summary

    After his cruel father signs a long-term contract, Patroclus is legally barred from singing like he loves- in front of anyone, ever, and certainly not in front of Achilles, the future face of Phthia Music Entertainment. So long as Patroclus can keep his mouth shut, every other door is open to him (and away from his home-life).

    However, as the relationship between Patroclus and Achilles blossoms over time, so does another yearning- a yearning to be seen, to be listened to, have his own voice heard, by his lover, and soon, the music world.
