    Summary

    Michael Jackson only wanted one ordinary afternoon.

    A quiet trip to the grocery store leads to an unexpected friendship with David MacKenzie, a stoic Scottish veteran whose calm presence feels like a lifeline in a world that rarely lets Michael breathe. When a crowd turns dangerous and David steps in without hesitation, Michael offers him a job as his personal bodyguard.

    What begins as a professional arrangement slowly becomes something far more complicated. As David navigates the chaos of fame, manipulative industry executives, demanding family members, and the constant pressure surrounding the world's biggest superstar, he finds himself fiercely protective of the lonely, kind-hearted man hidden beneath the legend. Meanwhile, Michael discovers that David is the first person in years who sees him not as Michael Jackson, but simply Michael.

    But falling in love is dangerous when one man is responsible for the other's safety...and the entire world is watching.

    Summary

    Simon had been...off, lately.

    It had started small. Then things began to slowly worsen.

    Markus drew the line at his love being unresponsive for a prolonged period of time. Just as he was pulling him to his feet to go get help, the worst had happened. Simon fully collapsed and a quick scan showed that the culprit was a failing heart.

    Summary

    Simon had seen the newcomer before, in the early morning, through dark alleyways and the winding streets of Ferndale, ground just kissed by Michigan’s early winter frost. The ones that could venture out, did, likely wary of the stranger in the dark coat who sought out each of Jericho’s passpoints with frightening accuracy.

    Not a lot of deviants made it to Jericho, but this one seemed to be holding up fine.

    Mostly follows the story, some parallels to Jack/Rose in Titanic, this isn't really about Titanic anymore, I just kind of started doing my own thing
