Summary
Trying to make it in comedy was easier in concept, even for a bonafide funnyguy, and the pressure from managers to keep his jokes “family friendly” led him down paths he didn’t know were dangerous until he woke up the next morning with a nose bleed and no recollection of the night before.
Now he’s clean and spends his days explaining the difference between jelly and fruit preserves to women named Linda or Carol. Which is cool. You can never be too gay for a grocery store themed like a pirate ship.

Summary
In 1808, against a backdrop of war between Sweden and Russia, two young men meet at school and fall in love. Simon Eriksson, the democratically-minded son of a disgraced smuggler works to secure a better life for himself and his family. Wilhelm Vasa, a second-born prince in disguise, strives to uphold his family legacy while exploring the world beyond the palace for the first time. Meanwhile, the observant and beleaguered Sara Eriksson works as a governess on the nearby estate of the wealthy Ehrencrona family, whose beautiful and cunning daughter Felice is reluctantly engaged to the manipulative August Horn.
When a shift in the line of succession puts Wilhelm in the crosshairs of a political conspiracy that threatens to change all of Sweden, each character faces new dangers. They must all decide what is truly important to them and what is worth fighting for.
Expect slow burn romance, political intrigue, and a sprinkling of spice in this epistolary alternate history.

Summary
“Hi,” she says quietly, suddenly cowed by the reality of her actions.
She’d shown up at a drug dealer's house, unannounced in the middle of the night, months after the place was raided. If she had bothered to text, he would have ignored it like he’d been fucking ignoring her messages for months, or he could have told her to stay the fuck away.
Lexi can’t decide which would have been worse, both options completely undesirable in their own ways. At least she’d grown accustomed to the silent treatment.
“Lex,” he replies in that low way of his that had never failed to curl her toes earlier this year.
Still does, if she’s being honest.
...
....
...or a post s2e8 au where the raid goes down differently and Fez and Lexi find their way to each other.

Disappointing Bingley is something like kicking a puppy or exsanguinating a virgin, which Darcy is pretty sure he would never do. Like, fairly sure.

Summary
Eddie cast around for topics that might get Richie going—weird movie concepts, gross food combinations, Odd Future, how much all the TV Eddie liked apparently sucked—but nothing seemed like it would be enough to fix whatever this was. Eddie took a deep breath as subtly as he could. “Do you, like, hate it here?”
Richie made a laugh-adjacent noise. “Uh, yeah. What tipped you off?” he said immediately. But then he looked at Eddie out of the corner of his eye. “Do you?” he asked, sounding less sure.
“So fucking much,” Eddie said.

Richie and Eddie meet in freshman year.
