Summary
What is scarier, choosing discomfort to learn, or conforming to the world because learning is hard?
For years, Baron “Bear” Bailey had spent years trapped in a mindset he never questioned, until a series of unexpected moments begin to crack it open. Sandy’s death, caused by his own negligence forces him to confront the state of his life. A conversation with Lindsay reminds him that people are people, not projections of what he thinks they are. Ruthie, the same waitress he practiced his confession to, becomes a catalyst for a journey he never expected to take.
Challenging the source of obsession.
Questioning the "nice guy" attitude.
Actively refusing to take shortcuts, like the One Wish Willow, which will appear once and will be rejected instantly, to never be seen again.Through education on empathy, boundaries, consent, vulnerability, accountability, and social justice, Bear rejects the future Obsession gave him.
This is not the story where Bear makes a wish. This is the story where he learns why he shouldn't.
This is where he refuses to.
And through this journey, he finds liberation.Series

Summary
It was her turn. She wanted her wish. And regardless of all the other options, every other thing she could speak into reality, regardless of the fire and the passion in her that had wanted so many impossible things from the world before, all she wished now was that none of this had ever fucking happened.
Or
Nikki is sure she can erase all of this, but something in the dark begs her not to.

Summary
I found Obsession to be very good. After watching some interviews with the cast, someone asked if, given a second chance, Bear would have made the same wish (or some variation of it). Michael Johnston said yes. I remain unsure, so I would like to explore that in this fic on the premise that Bear gets a second chance and becomes a decent human being with a sense of accountability, and I hope with guilt for what happened. I also want all the other characters to be happy, except Bear, who has to earn it.

Summary
When Bear begins dating Nikki, Sarah becomes infatuated with their every move. She never thought for a second Bear loved her, but she damn well had been starting to love him. And Nikki wouldn't betray her like that.
Maybe she would, like when she claimed all the poetry she'd written in high school about blood, and biting, and love being a desperate battle to enter into another's soul were Sarah's idea. So people would forget about Freaky Nikki and remember the cool, preppy, real Nikki.
Sometimes when Nikki's pupils leave Bear's body for half a second and meet Sarah's, they shudder, become brown instead of black. Yet they stay dilated, Sarah notices, and she remembers Nikki's old guilty puppy-dog glances from behind her new friends, like she was manipulated into betrayal by an unspoken social force.
She thinks maybe, if Nikki confessed she'd always dreamt of Sarah holding a knife to her throat, it would be her saying it. Not it. Her.Bookmarked by Rakuraidenryu
