I'm writing a book about two women, both LGBT, one of whom self harms and the other who later becomes her girlfriend. I'm unsure if I should set the scene in high school or college. Does anyone have any ideas? What kind of themes would you want to see in a book like this?

Character A, through gritted teeth, while trying their best to stab the other: Why can't you just fucking die already!?
Character B, smiling while ducking under A's sword: Trust me, I've tried. It doesn't work.
A, freezing in their place, stricken: Wha– No. No. You don't– B–
B, a tired immortal: Hm? It's fine. It's all in the past. Don't worry about it.
TW SELF HARM
Does anyone want to read the rest of this? Working on it now!
Alec slammed his head against the bedframe as he dropped to the floor. Fuck. All he wanted were his blades and the comfort the blood gave him. But he knew it was wrong, he knew he was romanticize something he shouldn't. And he knew Magnus would be deeply hurt deeper than the blade could ever cut Alec. But Angel, he wanted it so bad.
He tried to squeeze the tears away, feelings of overwhelming shame washing over him. He desperately wished he wasn't so weak. Crying made him feel like he was the weakest man on earth, despite Magnus assuring him that tears were a sign of strength
different meeting AU where Magnus transforms himself into a cat sometimes just for funsies and goes running around Brooklyn and one day a certain shadowhunter saves kitty!Magnus from a demon before Magnus could transform and take care of it himself. Alec picks him up and literally takes him to the Institute and gives him food. He doesn't have cat food so he gives him human food, which Magnus is thankful for, and just kind of. Keeps him. And Magnus knows he could easily sneak out anytime he felt like it and just go home, but he likes Alec. He's kind and, well, he's also hot so there's that. Humans don't think anything of undressing in front of their pets and Magnus isn't above watching. But also, Alec looks like he could just use a friend to talk to who won't talk back, someone to just listen and Magnus is happy to be that for him.
I just love the idea of kitty!Magnus listening to Alec tell him things he won't tell anyone else while his "pet kitty" just purrs in his lap to make him feel better or bumps his head up against Alec to bring him out of bad feelings before he sinks too far into them.
And it never occurs to Alec just how unnaturally golden the cat's eyes are.
Maybe Magnus doesn't really intend to make himself known to Alec. He figures he'll just stick around for awhile and eventually he knows he has to leave because he can't just live as a cat forever. And it does worry him because he knows Alec doesn't talk to anyone else and he's sort of fallen for him at this point, with Alec being so kind and sweet and self-sacrificing and pouring out his deepest secrets and insecurities. But then Alec gets hurt on a mission and he's in a bad way when he comes back. Magnus has the run of the Institute because he's kind of considered the Institute cat although everyone knows he's Alec's. So he's around when Alec gets dragged in by Jace and Izzy and taken to the infirmary. It's serious. It's bad. Magnus has to make a choice. Let Alec suffer and possibly die, or make himself known.
this has such Malec vibes
This is very valid.

idk what it is about work but on long days I just need a couple hours of no sound, no games, no stimulation after I get home, but by the time I’m ready to be alive again it’s already 12am. just feels bad to still be living with my family but feeling like I’m not a part of it anymore cause I’m drained from dealing with customers and ruminating over mistakes that my manager noticed. it sucks cause I can’t quit or I’ll be a worthless jobless daughter again but I don’t know how much more I can take
A week ago a couple people called off a bunch in the curbside pickup department. They lived together so they were both sick…after a couple days they were told they had to either come to work or get a doctors note, so, naturally, they came to work. They both still had fevers and were notably sick. They were permitted to continue working anyway.
Cut to a week later…70% of the store calls off in a single day. All reporting the same illness. Two others show up but are…well…sick. They aren’t sent home.
…We aint learn shit during the pandemic.
Stop micro-managing me, PLEASE! Either you can do it, or I can do it, but you can't have it both ways. Just let me do my job, I promise you I know how without your constant input

I don't care how often you go to a place and how friendly you are with the staff, if you see an employee on break leave them alone!!! Had this regular come in, and he sees me in the corner, earbuds in, phone set up in such a way its obvious I'm watching something and he stops and says something to me. I ignore him the first time hoping he'll just go away.
He comes back after placing his order though, sets his drink and shit down on the table I'm eating at and waves his hand in front of my face. Like what!!! What the fuck do you want!!!! I never even speak to this regular why the fuck are you trying to talk to me right now we aren't buddies I don't know you!!!! Leave me ALONE god damn.

I still wear a mask in public and at work.
Interesting comments I've had recently from customers.
"Do they make u wear that to work here?" While multiple uniformed coworkers are next to me not masked. Clearly not required to work here ma'am use ur common sense.
"You should take that off it's such a negative reminder" a reminder of what, sir. Oh the pandemic that is STILL happening? Sorry my personal safety makes ur poor feelings sad 🙄
"I miss c0vid and masks, I never had to wear lipstick!" ...u can still wear a mask u know. It's not like banned or anything lol. Also how incredibly out of touch to claim u "miss" a virus that 1. Is still dangerous and happening and 2. Devastated tens of thousands of ppl whether financially or physically or loss of a loved one.
"How am I supposed to know if ur smiling, I bet you have a pretty smile" fuck u old man
