    Summary

    Sometimes, you wonder if it’s okay to delude yourself. To imagine a world in which you fall in love with Stanford Pines, who, although he is eclectic and a bit egocentric, is smart; is reliable. Who, at the end of the day, would show you that he loves you, that he cares for you.

    Unfortunately, your heart never thumped around Stanford. You never got tongue-tied or anxious around him, no – you fell for Stanley Pines. Who poured beer into his Pitt Cola when he thought the twins weren’t looking and thumbed through erotic magazines in his office; who gave you a job and a roof over your head when your ex-husband kicked you out, until you had saved up enough money to rent a place in the town center.

    Problem is, you're fifty, stuck in an odd stage in the middle of your life, and Stanley is pushing his late 60s – almost 70s. With the return of his twin brother, Stanford Pines, you’re put in an awkward position, as Mabel tries to play matchmaker, while you pine for the one man you’ve never been able to have.

    Summary

    “I see myself in you, sometimes,” his words were laced with meaning and weighed heavily in the air around you. “You’re doing all the things you’re supposed to — like going to school for something that’ll make you wealthier than you could ever imagine — and yet you’re unfulfilled, searching for purpose.”

    “Is purpose that important?”

    “Of course it is. Purpose is the only thing we choose for ourselves in this life.”

    You wondered if he’d found that for himself if it mattered so much to him, you were frustrated that he could see through you as if you were transparent, and perhaps most importantly, you were desperate for Nanami to see you as more than his sugar baby.

    Summary

    Link is the chosen hero of destiny. He knows this because Impa has been drilling it into him since he was old enough to talk. The problem is, Link doesn’t want it – any of it. He just wants to be a normal – well, as normal as being best friends with the princess of Hyrule can get – teenage boy. He wants to have fun, cause trouble and fall in love. Or, more accurately, fall in love with someone who is not his best friends’ boyfriend…
