I'm curious to see... is anyone else still around? Anyone migrated to another platform? Im especially curious to see if any of y'all who I wrote RPS with back in the day are either still here, or have moved their writings elsewhere?

“Ryan, get up,” Eric commands.

You don’t mean to glare at him, but you do. You glare daggers at him, and you hope he takes one right to the heart. You slam your head back down onto the mount of pillows you have created for yourself on the hotel bed and try to forget.

People keep asking you if you’re alright. You don’t know what else to say to ( Read more... )

To an outsider, Peter and Alex would be a typical couple. They are wholly monogamous. They sport similar rings and similar tattoos.

The younger man groaned hard, slamming ( Read more... )

Aaron’s hand traveled up and down what had once been a perfectly formed set of Rectus Abdominus muscles. A few short weeks ago, he had the perfect body that would have easily landed him on the cover of Men’s Fitness magazine, and he had worked very hard to get what he had. Now, well now, his muscles weren’t so perfect anymore and the bump that was ( Read more... )

Aaron buried his face into the pillow beneath him, panting hard as his fingers dug into the blood red sheets beneath him. Hands gripped at his hips and he slid his face along the covers as he rocked his hips back against the body behind him. His forehead came to rest between his forearms and he closed his eyes tight, panting against the fabric ( Read more... )

Students spent years yearning for their graduation: to be able to wear the ring; to be able to dawn the cap and gown. Eric looked at his blue gown hanging on a hanger from the top of his closer door with sadness. He stood up and walked to it. He ran his fingers down the pleat that ran down the left breast, gently tucking his fingertips behind the ( Read more... )

So upset to hear about the Georgian Olympian who died in a horrific luge accident. Thoughts and prayers are with his family and with his country, and with all the Winter Olympians; this year will be a hard one.
