Demo! 🍑 Directory! 🍑 Trigger Warnings! 🍑

It's the first day of senior year and the people are itching for some drama... apparently.

When you get caught slacking by your best friend and staring off into the abyss turns out to be resident cool kid Dylan Quinn you're dragged under in to the cess pool of love-based-drama that surrounds NYC's McKinley High.

Just as you're forced into a love triangle by the school's resident queen of mean, Kinsley Grace–Cameron, for the mere rumour of your supposed crush on Dylan, your least favourite teacher assigns you babysitting duties with the new guy, Shay Walker and the rebel-without-a-cause J Montgomery for your year long finals project──landing you with the starring role in the latest gossip mill.

How are you ever going to survive the graduating class of '25?

There's no murder, there's no magic, there's no monsters or ancient societies, no sci-fi future apocalypse, no treasure to find or deadly goons... just high school seniors navigating romance and maybe an asshole teacher and potential conspiracy theories.

Features! 🍑 FAQ! 🍑

romance one (or more*...) of five love interests! are you in touch with your feelings? could you be non-committal? do you fall hard and fast and with everyone?

──*please note that this is a romance focused i.f and as such no set aro/ace/aroace route is present.

PotP Drabble

Author's Note: A touch-averse person writes someone who shows affection easily

Tags: @piece-of-the-pie-if

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Elijah glances up at Shay as he works. They'd been drawn to him when they first met him, but now? A few months in? His friendly, jokey demeanor caught them hook, line and sinker. They enjoy his easy affection; casual hugs and leaning on each other when they sit together, forehead kisses and other light touches. He easily went with their mischief and impulsive ideas, even indulged in their interests. They bonded over a love of gaming, even if their preferences were different. He fit surprisingly well into their friend group, too. Their feelings for him hit them like a truck and they weren't sure what to do about it now. Should I ask him out? Would he say yes? What if he didn't feel the same?

He looks up just at that moment and smirks at them, a little sparkle in his honey-colored eyes. Elijah giggles, quickly looking back at the paper they're supposed to be writing. A minute later a pencil eraser hits their laptop keyboard with a click. They look back at Shay, who's acting like nothing happened. The cheeky, tiny smile gives him away. He realizes they're looking at him a second too late, straightening his lips out to a neutral line. Elijah flicks the eraser back at him, hitting him in the chest. His neutral mask cracks easily as he tries to catch the eraser before it can fall too far. They purse their lips, suppressing a smile as they go back to typing. They shoot the eraser back and forth until it ends up bouncing too far away for them to retrieve nonchalantly.

Elijah and Shay gaze at each other, chuckling as the fun little game ends. They hold the stare, exploring the depth in each others eyes before Elijah feels their cheeks heat up. They look down at their laptop again, flustered and nervous. They feel Shay still looking at them before going back to his work.

Long Furby Crafting

Author's Note: Elijah is turning out very annoying, which is exactly how they're supposed to be lmaoo.

Tags: @piece-of-the-pie-if

Summary: Elijah bullied Theo and Charlie into helping them make a long furby. Here's their process lol.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Okay, so here's all the things we'll need for this surgery," Elijah drops a box onto the floor in the middle of their friends. "Surgery?" Theo questions, peering into the box. "Oh boy," Charlie pulls out a sheet of faux gray-and-sparkly fur and a long bendy white thing, "What in the hell is this?"

"That's going to be my daughters spine, Charlie," Elijah explains as they snag their furby of their bed. They hold the toy up for the other two to see, "This is my daughter, Starlight. Over the course of tonight and tomorrow, she will be reborn into the glorious monstrosity she was always meant to be!"

"We're dissecting a furby?" Theo asks. "Not just dissecting, bestie. We are going to turn her into her ultimate form: the long furby!" Elijah's blue eyes shine with excitement. They unceremoniously drop to the floor, careful not to damage their 'daughter.' "I scrounged up a sewing kit. We're gonna hand sew this little fucker since none of us own a sewing machine," They set Starlight down next to them as they pull a small sewing kit out of the box. "Elijah, why is there dental floss in here?" Their friend sighs as he fishes out a new thing of dental floss. "I've heard that dental floss is stronger than normal thread! Don't worry, I got normal thread, too," They uncover five spools of gray thread and drop them onto the ground. Charlie laughs and stops one before it can roll into the abyss under their bed. "I already made a pattern for her body, so we don't have to worry about figuring that out. I have to remove her skin, so can you guys cut the fur?" They grab the wire cutters and scissors from their material box.

An hour later....

"Oh god."

"What, Theo? Are you disturbed by seeing a furby's innards?" Elijah laughs as they try to free the face plate. "No; you're using scissors to unscrew something," He despairs. "It's fiiinnee," They whisper at him. The duo perk up when Charlie's phone rings. They set the tube-in-progress in their lap and check their phone. They light up, "it's Julie!"

"Answer it!! I must show off my monstrosity!" Elijah bounces in place. Their friend doesn't need any further prompting. They tap the screen then say "Hey!"

"LOOK AT MY FURBY!!" Elijah screams, shoving themself into Charlie's side. "Elijah!" Theo tries to grab and pull them back but it's too late; they end up barreling into Charlie and sprawling across the ground.

A few hours later.....

"Okay, Starlight's head is done.... well, mostly. We have to do the ears," Elijah slumps against their bed. "Her body is.... about halfway done?" Charlie holds the tube up in front of them. "Don't forget her feet," Theo throws the little detached feet into their lap. ".....Fuck," They groan. "Theo, is her heart done?" Elijah asks.

"Yep, it's right here," He holds up the little light blue stuffed heart. They take it from him, inspecting it. It's obviously hand stitched by a first time seamster. "It's perfect!" They smile at him, "now, should we attach it to the spine so it'll probably stay in place? Or should we just throw it into the stuffing?"

"Is the heart going to move much?" Charlie asks. "I don't know..." The pink-and-red haired person pouts at the heart, then looks at the spine. After a minute, they decide, "I'll just attach it to the spine. Can't hurt her."

The next day....

"Is she done?"

"Almost," Elijah says, finishing some last minute stitching. A minute later they proudly hold out the gray stuffed toy that's just about as long as they are tall, "Ta-da!! My daughter!"

"That's a lot bigger than I thought it'd be," Theo laughs. "What're we going to do with her?" Charlie asks, taking Starlight from them. "Go hang out, show her off.... potentially scare people," Elijah answers with a laugh. They take the furby from Charlie and wrap it around their shoulders, "Let's terrorize the town!" Theo shakes his head.
