    Summary

    "Scar?" Grian repeated, more shifting, like he was sitting up. Tired but gentle confusion in his voice. "Are you okay?"

    Scar should've hung up. It was bad enough he'd actually called. He should've lied, should've said it was a misdial and pretended to be okay. He should've done a hundred things and he did the one thing he shouldn't, because despite everything that happened between them, Scar felt safest with the one who hurt him. He said, a trembling whisper, "No."

     

    or: fake dating your ex, what’s the worst that could happen?

    Summary

    Cub steps forward, scratching his neck. That’s definitely a tell if Scar’s ever seen one. “Yeah, about that, Scar…”

    Scar frowns into his coffee cup, the steam collecting around his face makes his cheeks damp with condensation. There's a foreboding presence in the space between them, choking out the light mood of the morning sun. There's nothing in the world that should warrant this kind of tension. It's Cub, after all.

    “You have to model with Grian.”

    Scar goes deathly still. “You signed me up for a photoshoot with.. Grian?”

    Grian: his ex. His only ex. The guy that went and tore his heart out.

     

    ➴ Half a decade out of a degree in fabric styling and modeling, Scar's doing well for himself. He's built an agency from the ground up with his friends, earned the moniker HauteGuy from fans, and there is absolutely no sign of good looking ex-lovers. The world can't let dead things be.

    In which Scar learns a few things about love, fate, and karma. All together, at the same time.

    Summary

    The Bad Boys was a band formed by three teenagers—Grian, Jimmy, and Joel.
    Together, they preached about music like it was a Gospel, inhaling every chord like oxygen, and believing that music was the sole reason for their being.
    And like any parent would—they found it concerning and outrageous, like their kids were on drugs and they had to stop it.
    Then—a solution.
    Every summer, the three would pack their bags and leave for Brenham, Texas, to stay with Grian's distant relatives.
    Joel being Joel, said that this was only a 'detour' to their life long dreams.
    Yet, in that detour they found not just grass and open skies.
    They found comfort in the most unfamiliar of places.
    They found solace in a familiar soul.
    And maybe—just maybe—they found a reason to stay.

    Summary

    JOEL thought Bread Bridge Bakery would be all stale muffins and nap-worthy shifts, until Jimmy’s sister Lizzie walked in with a smile sweeter than buttercream. Now he’s juggling cinnamon rolls, customer service, and the very real threat of Jimmy ending his existence.

    GRIAN just wants to run his bakery in peace, craft the perfect macaron, and avoid catching feelings for his best friend's overly charming brother, Scar. But with drama rising faster than his dough, that’s easier said than done.

    JIMMY never asked for this. His best friend is flirting with his sister. His brother is flirting with his other best friend. And everyone keeps acting like they’re in a romcom instead of a bakery. He came here for coffee, not a front-row seat to whatever this pastry-flavoured soap opera is.

    Summary

    Grian snorted despite himself. “How’s the never-ending spiral of engineering hell treating you, then?”

    “Oh, you know,” Joel shrugged with a dramatic sigh. “Sleep-deprived. Caffeine-dependent. Soul slowly eroding beneath mountains of mathematical theorems that I swear are made up. But at least when I graduate, I’ll have a job.”

    Grian flinched theatrically. “Oof. Low blow.”

    Joel raised an eyebrow. “Am I wrong?”

    “No,” Grian admitted, his lips twitching into something crooked. “But at least I’ll have freedom.”

    “Oh yes,” Joel drawled. “The famous freedom of starving artists— living off expired protein bars and making tragic eye contact with neon billboards about ‘success stories’. So liberating.”

    <-OR->

    Grian is a dropout college student desperate to continue his crumbling dreams as an artist - a minority in the fast paced future based society he despises. After being knocked on his ass by an out of control hoverboarder, Grian realises that a morning cup of coffee is the least of his worries now.

    Summary

    “Bingo!” Scar cheers triumphantly, standing up from his seat and lifting his card up to the sky, showing it off to the whole room with pride. “Haha! Take that, ladies! Oh yeah, third time in a row!” he laughs, making everyone in the room groan as they proceed to clean their tables.

    Grian sits in the corner of the room, arms crossed and eyebrows furrowed. Looking at Scar, still flaunting his victory with a scowl on his face. His own collection of six Bingo cards on the table discarded pathetically, not even anything remotely close to a line in any of them.

    Grian leans to the right conspirationally, whispering to the old lady beside him.

    “I don’t know how he does it, but I know that he’s a dirty, dirty little cheater.”

    Summary

    Pierre Gasly has a lot to prove. He has just become a police investigator, he can’t screw up. His next case? The death of a young woman in Paris, and he needs to be objective. He can’t ignore the fact that Charles Leclerc is the prime suspect in a murder investigation just because Charles is pretty, or because Pierre feels sorry for the guy.

    Summary

    Pearl let out a few disbelieving gasps as she sat on his bed, she looked like a statue. Grian tried to keep his breaths steady but he failed with each attempt. He couldn’t fathom what he was told as they ate.

    He was to be wedded soon. He was to be wedded off to Scar of all people.

    “This is nothing less than cruel to you.” Pearl’s eyes were full of unshed tears, he reckons that it’s from both sadness and anger.

    “We both know that nothing can come from this marriage, they're just sending you off to go deal with that monster for them.” He knew what she was talking about. Grian was just as confused as his sister when it came to him being chosen. There was one major flaw in this marriage that just couldn’t be overlooked.

    Summary

    When Scar hadn’t been transported to the Winner’s Space after Secret Life, Grian hadn’t thought that much of it. He didn’t want to meddle too much.

    Surely it was a fluke, he’d told himself. It’ll be fixed by the end of the next game.

    And he had truly believed that.

    Now, after Wild Life, he simply watches in horror as Joel appears—and yet Scar still fails to.

    Wrong, his mind screams. Very, very wrong.

    Or: How each winner got to the Winner's Space after their game, and how Scar, for some reason, didn't. As told by Grian.

    Summary

    What voices, Scar?” Martyn asks again, a bit closer now, snapping him back to attention.

    “You— You know the Secret Keeper voices? When you succeed your task?” Scar asks, the words practically bursting out of him, propelled by the pressure of being kept at bay for so long.

    Martyn’s eyes narrow just slightly, his gaze flickering to the Secret Keeper and then back. “Yeah, I’ve heard ‘em. We all have, far as I can tell.”

    Scar nods and swallows, pasting on a shaky grin. “I hear them all the time.”

    OR, The Watchers take a special interest in Scar.

    Summary

    A bright, glowing green lightsaber cuts through the door of Grian's cell. Buzzing as it goes, the metal metals like it’s nothing, arcing in a circle just big enough for a person to fit through. It looks straight out of an action holo. The cut-out part of the door pushes through and crashes onto the floor near Grian’s feet.

    A head of tousled brown hair leans into the cell. Eyes as green as the lightsaber meet Grian’s. The man’s face breaks into a knowing, roguish grin.

    “I’m Scar Goodtimes,” he says with a flash of his teeth. “We’re here to rescue you.”

    Summary

    Grian opens his eyes.
    The ceiling is warm, red wood. Sunlight streams in gently from the open window, curtains fluttering in the breeze. Not sure he’ll like what he finds, Grian turns his head to the side.
    “You’re kidding,” Grian says.
    “Morning, sunshine,” says Scar — the wrong Scar — and suddenly Grian has a headache.

    “So basically the Grian from the cactus dream inhabited your body for three days,” Scar says casually, and Grian chokes. “He was really sweet, Gri, and like, so miserable. He was so convinced his own Scar hated him, which could never happen, by the way, and he ended up here by accident."
    Grian rubs his temples.

    Summary

    Looking in at another universe obsessively like this, it’s a bad habit — a peek of something he can’t have, another painful tug on his heart, another pointless reminder that he’s ruined everything. Irreparably. Forever. Five times over. But he keeps looking.

    Grian’s been torturing himself with this every night, anyway, what’s one more snoop?

    OR

    On Hermitcraft, there's a different version of Grian, perfectly happy with his Scar. Somehow, in the middle of Secret Life, Grian manages to wake up in his body.
