Summary
"His smile grew wide again, and Nick wondered if the floor would open up right then and there and drag him to hell for the crime of enjoying this too much. “Nick, old sport! It’s always a delight to see you.”
Nick glowed slightly at the compliment. “You saw me an hour ago, Jay.”
Jay simply shrugged. “Details.”
His gaze finally turned to Chester.
“Ah, my apologies for not doing my job as a host! I’m Gatsby, pleasure to make your acquaintance.”"
Nick, Jay, and Chester all meet at one of Jay's parties. Can Cupid's bow shoot twice?

Summary
Nick Carraway and Jay Gatsby have been together for over a year now and in spite of all the time they get to spend together in Jay's impossibly large mansion, they're still not really out to the public. This is because the public is ravenous for just about any detail they can get concerning the life of one of the few sexually ambiguous billionaires in America. The government would be too if they didn't know any better.
So Jay proposes he could take a day off. It's fall. It's a beautiful day. They've been cooped up for too long. Wouldn't it be nice to go to a pumpkin patch and pretend to be one of the thousands of couples that think fall is THEIR thing and NO ONE ELSE'S?
Like teenagers after curfew, they sneak out of the house to spend a day together. Only Jay hopes it's the beginning of the rest of their lives.Series

Summary
Chester McKee had a reputation.
It followed him absolutely everywhere. At work, he was the only man in a field of women, and they made sure he knew. At most social events, he received many tasteless jokes from men that were "more" than him. And at home, with his wife, who squinted her eyes everytime he so much as looked at another man.
But here, among good (or bad, depending on how you looked at it) company, his reputation was as good as gone. Especially under the careless eyes of Nick Carraway.

The Gayest Ivy by Miscellaneous_mess

Summary
A proud banner over the table read ‘The Gayest Ivy’. Jay didn't know if that was true.
~~~
Nick didn't look like a girl to Jay, but then Jay supposed that was probably what Nick was going for. His chest was pressed flat and while his jawline and eyes had a soft sort of femininity to it, his other features were sharp. Jay felt a sort of flutter, Nick was beautiful but not in the same way he had ever found a girl beautiful before.

Summary
Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her.
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry "Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover, I must have you" -Thomas Parke D'Invilliers.It's the 1920s, Nick Carraway had just moved to New York a couple of months ago and was trying to become a writer on the side.
Jay Gatsby was trying to chase the green light with all he's got while trying to find a way to reach Daisy. He thought that Nick would be the key.
Tom Buchanan has tried his hardest to ignore the morally weak side to him that was awoken in college by Nick. Unfortunately for him, Nick is back in his life.
George Wilson is trying to get out of the pit of despair and recreate love with his cheating wife and worn down shop.
Chester McKee just wanted to party with his wife and friends when he sees the most beautiful man.
What will become of these men who will forever be changed through Nick's affect on their lives?
We will have to wait and see.
P.S This as my own version of The Great Gatsby.

Summary
Nick Carraway has wasted his life. After graduating from Yale and spending one pointless summer in New York—a time that only showed him how pathetic the lives of the wealthy really were—he returned home to St. Paul only for his father to tell him to go do something on his own. Opening a branch of the family hardware company in Duluth was not an option after the economic crash, so now he's working as a carpenter and wasting that expensive education and the rest of his life, poor and miserable with only his roommates, Jordan and Chester, to brighten his days.
Jay Gatsby has spent almost half his life with a man over twice his age. Essentially trapped on a yacht with an abusive alcoholic who promised him a lifetime of luxury when he was 17, all that good nature and ambition within him has been worn down to nothing but a snobbish shell of the young man he once was. A mistake he made five years ago put a rift between himself and Dan and now he spends his days trying to distract himself from the fact that he's trapped in the very life he spent his whole childhood chasing.
When he ends up getting fished out of the Duluth harbor with no memory, Nick's the only one who recognizes him. It's up to him what happens next.

Summary
"She blinked at me as though she failed to understand.
“I’m Gatsby,” she said suddenly.
I stared at her blankly. She was Gatsby? A porcelain doll's face encased in soft blonde curls was Gatsby? She wasn’t what I had imagined–even if my mind concocted an image of a stout, eccentric little old man.
“I thought you must’ve known, my dear. I’m afraid I’m not a very good host.”
And she placed an elbow on the glass tabletop, cupped her chin with her finely manicured hand, and smiled. Understandingly–maybe even much more than understanding. It was one of those exceedingly rare and dazzling smiles with a quality of such reassurance that you could very well drown in them if you weren’t careful–you’d only come across one like this maybe four or five times in life. It assured you warmly that you had done the perfect job of conveying yourself exactly as you desired, at your very personal best. Just as it vanished from her face–I was staring into the eyes of an elegant, clever young woman, a year or two under thirty, whose complex formality of speech bordered on absurd.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you.” She relaxed her hand from her chin and held it out to me."--
See preface for elaboration.
