Summary
Gary Barkovitch is a weird and unsociable guy, even with his dormmate Ray Garraty’s best efforts to include him in outings.
As their first semester at Walker University unfurls, it becomes obvious that Gary is homesick and having a hard time coping. Ray’s friends notice Gary has a few notable oddities, including his secretive nature over the letters he sends back home. Does Gary Barkovitch of all people have a sweetheart back in Kentucky…?
Or: The five times the friend group thought Gary Barkovitch was lying about having a girl back home, and the one time they learned the truth.

Summary
The sky is empty of eyes.
That’s not something the others would notice, and Grian can’t see the difference, either, not anymore. It’s something he feels instead, as keenly as the absence of wings, the oppressive looming presences missing from the corners of his mind. The Watchers are gone.The Watchers have been defeated. Grian has been defeated.
With his powers gone and his betrayal revealed to everyone, he’s been sent to a new world for… hang on, this isn’t a death game. What is it the Listeners want from them?
And why won’t Scar just leave him alone?Bookmarked by Taemoo

Summary
(Used to be just for MerMay, got out of hand lol)
Grian runs a marine rehabilitation center that rescues and takes in sick, injured or abandoned merfolk from around the island who have no place to go. He has dedicated himself to saving mer and learning about them to help them to recover until they are healthy enough to be released back into the wild.
His job gets complicated when he saves an abandoned mer from a terrible fate who doesn't behave like any of the merfolk before him and Grian's patience is put to the test when others in the facility cause him more trouble.

Summary
Thump thump thump.
Heavy bass rippled through the water in time with Scar’s heart, each wave of the music sending a sharp pain through his skull. He hated the way it reverberated through him, the way it seemed to overpower any other sound. He flicked his fins anxiously, straining his ears beyond the thudding bass to listen for his cue. They were about to start talking about him, and he had to mold into his performance. Smile like how the humans do, make sure his eyes sparkle, make sure the light hits his tail just right so that his skin shone.
A shrill beep sliced through the water and he flicked his tail sharply, sending himself through the surface. The sound multiplied, hammering against his ears, but he ignored it, flashing a smile towards the audience. He turned in the air and dove back into the water, whipping around surface again. His tail ached, but he couldn’t devote any attention to it. He had to keep performing.
