    Summary

    You are still heartbroken over the closure of your favorite cafe months later. You've avoided exploring new places, but the treacherous rain forces you to put yourself out there, and find shelter in a place you've been willfully ignoring. Perhaps exploring new places isn't such a bad thing, after all. And one foul-mouthed baker might be able to help you attest to that.

    Summary

    Jon breaks easily, he knows. His edges are sharper than his words, than pen on paper. He must be carefully kept or else he will run at the first sign things are going south. Breakable and sharp and in need of careful keeping, he is a chore. Burdensome to tolerate at the best of times, unbearable at his worst. He scowls at strangers in crowded department stores, cringes when babies cry on the tube, snaps at his coworkers when he is frightened and Jon is so very frightened these days.

    Summary

    Apparently, when you are trying to avoid something, with every fiber of your soul, that is when it will always find you. Perhaps it's the rhetoric of the red string itself; how it dangles from your hand, pompous. Saying, smugly, without words, I told you so. All roads lead back to the source, capillaries or roots of a tree funneling to the same end goal.

    In your case, all roads lead back to the SuperStar Daycare.

    --

    You want a normal, average, fated romance as much as the next person. Butterflies fluttering in your stomach, and a healthy connection with someone who makes you feel like you fit in.

    Really, it's not too much to ask.

    But that has never been the path your life has in store for you. Instead, you have to fight to untangle yourself from an unlikely soulmate: a robotic entertainer built by, and for, Fazco Entertainment LLC. One that is determined to make you notice their affections at any cost.
    Good luck.

    Summary

    “So.” Tim says, draping himself across the back of the sofa near enough to ruffle Martin’s hair as he does. “Who else has been snogging The Distortion this evening?”

    Sasha eagerly raises her hand. Jon reluctantly follows. Martin hesitates before doing the same, feeling himself go red all over again.

    On Halloween Tim, Sasha, Jon and Martin are each visited by a very peculiar trick-or-treater
