Pinecrest school for the gifted
One of the best boarding schools in the country. One of the most exclusive boarding schools in the country. Syd's new home for the next two years.
Life at Pinecrest is not easy though, and despite her attempt to stay under the radar, she's met with constant bullying, a hostile roommate and a teacher who seems to have it out for her.
None of this matters to her though, as long as she keeps beating Carmen Berzatto in everything she does.

Summary
“What the fuck is this?” Carmy snarled from behind her, slamming into the office and tossing his phone on the desk.
Sydney’s heart sank as she registered the message in front of her.
"Hey Carman," the email read, somehow misspelling Carmy’s name, "It’s Adam. I’m sure Syd’s told you about the CDC position I’ve offered her at my new place. I just want you to know that it isn’t personal – she’s so fucking talented, you know? She’s going places, and I want to help her get there. I couldn’t let that kind of talent go without a fight. I hope you understand that it’s the best thing for her – hopefully no hard feelings?"

Because whatever held them together back then doesn’t mean shit now.
Not after how it ended. -

Summary
Natalie was still fucking hounding him about ’self-care’ and ‘therapy’ and all that other bullshit, and now Sydney would team up with her, and it was all because of that stupid fucking article that decided it wanted to come in and fuck up the closest thing to normalcy he’d ever had in his entire fucking life.

Summary
In a world where men wear dresses and have to hurry up and marry before their balls dry up while women have all the power, Lord Berzatto is a hot commodity: he is handsome, intelligent and most important of all, single. The young lord is to be married to the Countess Dunlap, but she doesn't seem to be able to make a move. Meanwhile, Lady Adamu wishes to marry Lord Luca, but he also seems distracted. Sensing that they are in similar predicaments, Lady Adamu asks Lord Berzatto if she may pretend to court him so they can make their respective lovers jealous. Things take a turn when the young lord finds himself falling for the lady.

Summary
”Look, I don’t expect you to get it Ritchie, you weren’t the one who Mikey literally kicked out of here for being a fat ass”.
“He said that?” Ritchie looks like he wants to kill a dead man, and Carmy feels a surge of protectiveness towards his big brother.
Carmy shrugs “when he told me I couldn’t stay here he said it was for my own good” he says gently. “And I get it, I couldn’t control myself here-“
“You get jackshit! Mikey was trying to protect you from all the crap he had going on!”

Summary
Resilience is a fucking lie. We don't endure endlessly and certainly not poetically. We snap when pressure is applied for prolonged periods. Some would argue that it takes breaking something to be great. I'm not sure if this is true.
I wanted to explore what kind of Carmen Berzatto would rise from destruction. He'd suffered. He'd mourned. But, he never broke.
This story is about what we become after we've been broken.
