Summary
Prequel and Sequel to "My Boys." Title may be subject to change.
Lil Cal Strider has always accepted that his life is odd, weird, strange. What he didn't expect is that, in the dying moments of Sburb, he becomes a Player and, to top it off, changes the ending of Sburb entirely!
Now in the new universe, he must learn how to act and be human, all the while looking for his boys. Through new discoveries, a kind old couple who owns a coffeeshop, and his own flaws, he may discover that being human isn't really being human at all.
It's being himself.

Summary
Roland had to have finished up with distributing books by now, so she focused on locating him.
Ah. With Gebura and Netzach. Again.
She scrubbed her face with the palm of her hand, suddenly feeling tired. Her body was becoming more and more human with each reception, but she was still not used to how quickly certain feelings would creep up on her. It seemed like she was discovering new emotions and sensations every day. Right now, she was so tired it felt like a sharp spike was being driven through her core. It was a strange sensation and she wasn’t entirely sure how being tired could make her chest tight and heart race, but she could ask Roland later. -

Heero gets a letter. It’s very official. It has a seal and his address, but not the name he was given in his last mission…no. The letter is from an attorney. They’re sorry to hear about the loss of Jay Null, but he’s been named the sole executor of Jay Null’s estate.

Summary
"You’ve a beautiful voice,” Hob had murmured, not half an hour ago, his voice heavy with exhaustion and soft with fondness. “Soothing. Like a banked fire.”
“Do I keep the cold at bay?” Dream asked, and Hob had wrapped sleep-clumsy fingers against his jaw and pulled him in for a kiss that Dream can still feel now, right down to his toes.
“It’s easy to love you.” Hob had smiled.

Summary
Aleus, the human child, was never loved by anyone. Not even his own mother. After all, how could humans ever love a demon?
Pedahzur, the newborn god, was loved only by his prophet. Later, he learned about kindness and blessings, and won the love of his believers. He's loved by many, and hates no one.
Ziddim, the other side of the coin, was the result of duty and responsibility. Although he was loved by many, he couldn't afford to care for them. He's feared as much as he's loved, and hates no one regardless of his actions.
No-name god/human/demon is... nothing. Loved by no one, feared by no one, acknowledged by no one... manipulated by everyone.
Alante wants to be human, and so, he is human. He is truly loved by those he likes and truly feared by those he hates. To be able to like and hate by yourself... In his humble opinion, the authentic free will that comes with mortality can never be replaced by the fake bloody benefits of godhood.

Summary
More than being one of the princes of the underwater kingdom of Azua, Doyoung is a simple mer. Despite his privileges, he doesn't covet much - not even the throne. If he allows himself to be dramatic, he may even say having the throne would ruin his life. And in a way, the throne does ruin his life, steals everything from him.
He never thought a human man with a summery smile and an endless supply of swim shorts would help him re-find his sense of self.

Summary
Mahito gets stripped of his curseness while on a mission with Nanami and now has to learn how to be human. Thankfully, Nanami won't leave him to fend for himself. This new situation might even bring them closer together than they'd already grown to be over the past few months since the day Mahito came to him, at death's door and ready to give away the name of the man who punished him for failing his mission and killing the kid he was supposed to use as bait to form a pact with the king of curses.
