a ballad in dark luxury and false opulence ✨ by AlejandroAsher

Summary
When Dante Quintana, a rising YouTuber and actor, is guest-cast as famous teen actor Ari Mendoza's love interest in an internationally successful Netflix series, their on-stage romance blossoms into an unspoken, surreptitious off-stage series of rendezvous. But Ari has been closeted for quite some time, and the opening of those doors might lead to the downfall of his success under the scrutinizing eagle eyes of Hollywood's entertainment industry.
OR: A look at batshit fandom culture under the lens of a fantasy I've had ever since I started watching a particular TV show and fell head over heels for a particular cast member, and I'm now writing this partially to live vicariously through Dante.
Based on Dance in the Dark by Lady Gaga and XS by Rina Sawayama.

Just Ari by queer_we_are

Summary
I've always loved how Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe explores gender and gender roles, and this story is an extension of that exploration. It was my personal interpretation that Ari might be non-binary, given how uncomfortable he seems with gender roles and at times his own body. This is a sort of what-if story of about an enby Ari.

Summary
Ari and Dante have always loved music, and even create many of their own beats since at a young age.
But they didn't know that at thirteen years old, they would get recognition from a couple of big musical labels.
For Ari it was named "Island Records" Known for promoting artists like: Amy Winehouse, Florence + Machine, and even Ariana Grande.
Dante's was "Universal Music Group" Promoting artists such as: Three Doors Down, Shania Twain, and Kern/Fields.It was their debut albums that took a jump in their careers that they didn't even know they would have. On Youtube from ages ten - twelve, they would just post occasional covers from all sorts of genres, it got many hits for them both.
With the help of their parents though, they would assemble an album at the age of thirteen and release it.
If only they knew how big it was going to become, along with themselves.Watch as the boys find each other through their producers and how music can have them grow as a pair. An inseparable bond to form between them, and if they are ready to face their emotions through the journey.

Summary
"Don't go, don't go, don't go, don't--
Pinches maricones de mierda.
The storm of emotions falls on him, it was just a shot away from being shot. The downpour tastes of a body suddenly letting go, a kiss that is still impregnated and cut off by fear, another boy running."
OR
the most horrible scene of the book from Dante's pov this time.

Summary
Ari and Dante have finished their senior year of highschool and now they need to go make the world their own. Glimpses of the boys' lives through multiple summers in their futures.
Diving into the waters of the world will be the sequel's title, I am so excited and just knew that I had to do something with the other title that we were given and is no longer going to be used. So here's my take on what There will be other Summers means to me with these characters.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I have enjoyed writing it.

Summary
Since my return to El Paso, it seemed to appear a vicious circle in which the boy in question and I were involved almost with impiety.
It felt hard. I always had so many topics of conversation to bring up and Ari (Aristotle, I had to repeat myself, it was also hard to remember my self-imposed control when I couldn't help but notice how the sleeves of his shirt just fit snugly into the curves of his shoulders as if they belonged there forever...and I would love to belong there too), well, he was Ari. It’s not like he had much to answer. He was the king of silence.

Dream and George Discover the Universe by malberry

Summary
Does George ever go to the beach?
It’s a dumb question, but he wants to know.
When George visits, (And Dream knows he will, someday,) will they go to the beach?
Fuck, Dream hates the beach. He hates the sand, and how it wedges its way in between your toes. How it gets everywhere it isn’t supposed to be.
But he still sits there, that every once-in-a-while night when he needs to clear his mind.
And he holds shells to his ear, and the sound of the waves in front of him echo in his head.Sometimes, the shells have little hermit crabs in them. Dream lets them march away when he finds them.
Is the beach their escape too?And what the fuck is he escaping from?

I kissed Dante.
And Dante kissed me back.

Just like that, I did not want to be alone anymore.

Summary
Pretend that Ari's Big Talk with his parents didn't happen when it did, but two weeks later - after Dante had told him they couldn't be friends anymore, and they had spent two weeks trying to get used to not talking.
And then Ari says fuck it and shows up unannounced at Dante's house.
Nothing but happy endings, no matter what you choose (it's a choose-your-own-adventure ficlet).
