    Summary

    Sylvain, model/Instagram celebrity, and Felix, arts administration MFA candidate, are flatmates. The pandemic in full swing, Sylvain has found a cure for his boredom, but needs Felix’s help! When they put their heads together to make a photography project profitable, what could possibly go wrong?
    ~
    “I don’t have experience behind the camera or creating sets and things. You do! Plus, you’ve got marketing and audience development know-how!”
    “For art museums, Sylvain, for museum exhibits and museum-goers!” Felix seethed, “I’m learning how to persuade seventy-year-olds to fork over money for art grants—not how to turn free Instagram content into porn people will pay for.”
    Sylvain leaned in. “Oh, Fe, are you telling me you don’t think there’s any overlap with Arts Administration? A potential for skill transference?” Felix turned his head to look at him. Sylvain smiled sweetly—his wavy auburn hair was illuminated by the kitchen light behind, creating a halo effect.
    Felix wanted to strangle him. “For fuck’s sake, Sylvain,” Felix swung around, “you can do whatever you want, but don’t act like the issue is my confidence in my abilities. The problem is you’re asking me to help you make porn.”

    Summary

    “Your mother has told you before that everyone has their talents, right?” His father’s voice was low, calm, with none of the bite or boredom that he’d always had before. “Well, everyone has things they can’t do, too. In fact, your sister made me very unhappy today—Daddy asked her to do something, and she didn’t listen.”

    He only talked about himself in third person when he was talking to Mari. So, why was he suddenly...no. It didn’t matter. Sunny had learned very quickly not to question his father, and to pick up on his subtle cues. He knew what he was supposed to say. “I-I can try and do it,” Sunny said. “Wh-what is it?”

    Summary

    Jacob quit his well-paying but soul-draining job at Joja to take over his grandfather’s farm. With only a few college classes on agriculture, maintaining a large farm on his own will not be easy.
    Growing up in the anonymity of a busy city, he was looking forward to building a social life in a community that his grandfather cherished. Despite his urges to maintain a snarky attitude towards people, the new farmer quickly finds himself connecting to the inhabitants of Pelican Town. Introducing himself to them went well, until he ran into one gridball player who reminded Jacob of every single one of his childhood bullies. Much to his own surprise, he found himself both infuriated and drawn in by the handsome athlete, who appeared to be battling his own past.

    Summary

    He hated buses.

    Everyone says that ‘hate’ is a strong word, but for Emmett it seemed to suit this situation perfectly. Anyone would share the same sentiment after being in a bus filled exclusively with boys- specifically ones that refuse to invest in some deodorant and for the few that did… their gross overuse of body spray would be enough to knock out a person. Though, it was probably better to get used to this reality sooner rather than later, since he was on a bus headed for the thing he'd been dreading all summer:

    An all-boys boarding school by the name of Foresters Academy.
