    Summary

    The problem, Kaveh decides, wasn’t just that Alhaitham had no range, even when the similarities were so close all he’d have to do was change his name. It was that Nilou somehow expected him to fix it. Performance chemistry was not something you could brute-force by proximity and stubbornness and sheer willpower. Kaveh has already spent a full semester proving that Alhaitham was biologically immune to charm.

    Nilou rubbed her temples.

    “Okay, look. You’re actors—well, one of you is. You’re meant to create illusions. Maybe just… pretend you don’t hate each other? And then hate each other when it calls for it.”

    “We don’t hate each other,” Kaveh snapped.

    Alhaitham, beside him, nodded agreeably. “I simply find him taxing.”

    In Sumeru University’s production of Barefoot in the Park, Kaveh’s original scene partner breaks a leg. Literally. His insufferable roommate steps up to the plate. Only: they have zero chemistry and turn to alternatives, i.e, method acting.

    But it’s fine, they’re adults. What could go wrong?

    Summary

    "What else you got in that backpack? Social security card? Spare key to the Spidey bachelor-pad? You’re lucky no one’s stolen your shit yet.”

    Peter hesitated for just a moment, and instantly regretted it. Too late, Deadpool had already noticed whatever microexpression had given him away, and pounced on it.

    Deadpool gasped. “No fucking way.”

     

    Or, Peter Parker is not as good at the secret identity thing as he thinks he is, and Deadpool gains a few (metaphorical) gray hairs.

    Summary

    At twenty-eight, George finally decides to get his driver’s license. It’s something he’s put off for years—too anxious, too distracted, too tangled in other things that felt more urgent than learning how to parallel park. But when he finally books a lesson, his new instructor, Dream, turns out to be calm in all the ways George isn’t—patient, focused, steady-handed. The kind of person who makes even the loud hum of the engine sound quiet.

    It’s supposed to be professional. It isn’t.
    One lesson becomes two, then three, and suddenly George isn’t sure which part scares him more—learning how to drive, or learning what it means to let someone in.

    Or, George signs up for driving lessons but his instructor is hot so he pays more attention to him than the road.

    Summary

    George’s eyes momentarily flew shut as he felt bright lights streaming down at him, and it was only when they somewhat adjusted again that they saw a familiar sight before him. The Paris Opera fully booked out. But that couldn’t be, the performance had just ended, why was there a new audience, and new dancers here already?

    “Ladies and Gentlemen," a sudden voice announces. It felt like it was all around him as George felt himself flinching, the stares he received not going unnoticed. “It is a pleasure to introduce the Paris Opera Ballet student company and budding class of 2025.”

    George felt his blood run cold. “2025?” He said in shock, more to himself than anyone else. They couldn’t possibly mean the year.

    It was 1805. 2025 was still over two hundred years away.

    or George is a prince from 1805 studying ballet in the Paris Opera, who suddenly finds himself 220 years in the future. He feels strangley interested in this new life and a cute blond
