Rec: Fallen Hero: Rebirth

Title: Fallen Hero: Rebirth Author: Malin Rydén Format: Online text-based Choose-Your-Own-Adventure game Published/Free: Published Length: 380,000 Status: Complete Rating: Mature Warnings: Possible mentions of past abuse, suicide, alcoholism Link: https://www.choiceofgames.com/user-contributed/fallen-hero-rebirth/ Summary: Become the greatest telepathic villain Los Diablos has ever known! Once you were famous; soon you will be infamous. That is, unless your old friends in the Rangers stop you first. Juggle different identities and preserve your secrets as you build new alliances and try to forget the friendships you’ve left behind.

Review: In terms of interactive fiction, Fallen Hero: Rebirth may be the best one out there. The intricate and seamless writing introduces a world where superheroes are more than simple ‘do-gooders’ and where everything may not be as it seems. The characters you can romance are fully fleshed out and are truly living and breathing in the city that you may very well destroy…

Rec: Strings of Fate

Title: Strings of Fate Author: rez-zie Format: Webcomic Published/Free: Free Length: ~50 pages currently up, will be several hundred by the time it’s finished Status: WIP Rating: Everyone Warnings: Depressed character, illness mention Link: Tapastic: tapas.io/series/StringsofFatecomic Tumblr: stringsoffatecomic.tumblr.com Summary: STRINGS OF FATE is an angsty story about a naive boy who tries to find his place in the world. His fated path is a long one, where he experiences the joys of first love and adventure, but some aren’t so keen on where it’s taking him.

Stay with him as he unravels the bittersweet truths of the world.

/// This story focuses on a POLY ship! But there will be many twists and turns, seeing as life can throw you in unusual directions.

Review: Very upbeat and gay, so there’s no shortage of fun, but there are hints of disabilities and issues that will greatly impact the series later ! I wanted to give a face to depression and abandonment issues to give the reader something to relate to, but also happy themes like security and friendship. Strings of Fate is an LGBT+ coming of age story that i’ve dedicated well over a year to and i hope that people find comfort it !

Rec: A Normal Lost Phone

Title: A Normal Lost Phone Author: Accidental Queens Format: Videogame Published/Free: Published Length: 1-1.5 hours Status: Finished Warnings: Homophobia, arson Link: http://accidentalqueens.com/ Summary: You find a phone. A normal, lost phone, in the street. It is still working. Will you find the truth?

Review: It was a surprise to find a game like this on Steam. At first it did not look special, but then you began to explore, and oh, girl, boy, person, the story then fits its pieces. You have to look at the messages, the forums, the Tinder-like app, the calculator, the photos, and some more, to understand it all. It is refreshing to see such an experience in clear therms to understand how SPOILER ALERT trans people feel when they face family rejection before coming out END SPOILER ALERT

Link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119360/ Summary: Howard Brackett is a high school teacher in a small town in Indiana with everything going for him; a nice job, an attractive fiancé named Emily and respect from everyone. Everything changes in one night when a former high school student of his, named Cameron Drake, now a famous actor living in Hollywood, makes an acceptance speech after receiving an Academy Award for his portrayal of a homosexual army soldier and 'outs' Howard Brackett as his inspiration for his role. The media circus immediately begins as Howard desperately tries keep his life from falling apart by protesting that he is not gay and that the whole thing with Cameron's speech is a simple misunderstanding. While most of the townspeople want to believe Howard, Peter Malloy, an openly gay TV reporter who arrives in town to cover the story, suspects that the teacher is in denial. Review: I found this movie after accidentally stumbling over a clip from it on youtube. At first I thought it was just gonna be a funny movie, but it is so much more then that! It's hilarious! And sweet! And everything posetive you can come up with! Even if Supposedly-Straight-Man-Outed-Through-Misunderstanding-Tries-To-Deny-Everything-But-Fails-In-Hilarious-Ways isn't your cup of tea, I reccomend you watch it anyway. It's truly a classic and bound to at least make you chuckle a little. (Original Post)

Rec: Crosscurrents

Title: Crosscurrents Author: Adam Phillips Format: Novel Published/Free: Free Length: 266,000 words Status: Complete Rating: Mature Warnings: Contains m/f as well as m/m; some angst. Link: https://www.gayauthors.org/story/adam-phillips/crosscurrents Summary: Andy and Matt, best friends and teammates from childhood, grow together, learn together, and struggle to remain friends when their evolving relationship outpaces their ability to understand it. Review: A high school story with some autobiographical elements, this is one of the few stories out there that addresses bisexuality in a realistic, honest way. Andy is in many ways the quintessential high school jock, and can come across as arrogant at times, but he's also remarkably self-aware. (Original Post)

Rec: Aversion in Partnership

Title: Aversion in Partnership Author: starburst-sunbeam Format: Novel Published/Free: Free Length: 150k+ Status: Main story: WIP, AU: Complete Rating: Everyone Warnings: None Link: Aversion in Partnership, Beneath the Blood

Summary: Bennett is, and has always has been, the kind of person to always be top of his class, the leader in groups, making student council and priding himself on the control he has over himself. He’s never slipped, until Austin Haroldes transfers into school and proves that with half the effort he can take away everything Bennett’s ever thought he had. Review: Now this is an amazing example of how interesting and engaging a high school/first time/coming out type story can be. There is so much history and details put into sketching out character’s history, motivations and why they act certain ways to certain situations. It’s also not a typical cliche stereotypical situation of jock/nerd (they are both genius nerds xD) and it’s hilarious. I really liked the main character and his amazing group of friends.

The author has also written an AU to their original work with a almost A/B/O setting with werewolves. It’s just as amazing as the actual story. This one is actually complete.

Please check out this story! It’s got great characters, sweet and cute slow build romance and an amazing AU. It’s a must read in my opinion :D
