Summary
Anni 70, l'omosessualità è ancora nella lista delle malattie mentali. E questa è semplicemente la storia di Harry, ragazzo privato della libertà di essere se stesso.
Dalla storia: Mi privarono della mia dignità in quanto uomo, praticandomi una cura a base di ormoni. Rubarono i miei pensieri, resettando la mia memoria. Calpestarono le mie emozioni innaturali, sostituendole con quelle che consideravano giuste; e gettarono merda travestita da fede sui miei sentimenti.
Provarono a dare vita a una personalità che non ero io: mi fecero diventare veramente il pazzo che volevano curare. Perché io non ero l’abito che mi era stato cucito addosso, ma a loro alla fine del lavoro andava bene così.

Summary
The true start of an asylum was in the 1800s. As time went on, what would get you thrown into one became more and more common. Whether that was just how society progressed, or the doctors and orderlies who worked there just wanted more power, nobody could quite tell. The people who truly needed help were just thrown in with murderers. People would be electrocuted and trained into not loving the people they once did.
Castiel was one of those people. He thought he would be able to fake a recovery. At least he did until he met a man with a smile that could light up the darkest rooms. To Cas, the mysterious man was probably the only sane one in the asylum. But, what he didn’t know was that everyone else thought he was the worst one there. -

Summary
There are plenty of places broken children go. Sometimes it’s right back to the people who broke them or to new people who do the same. A lot of the time it’s to new parents, better parents, but when there’s nowhere else to go?
They go to Yorktown.
The broken ones, the ones who got hurt trying to protect their helpless sisters, the ones who don’t talk and just smile because then they won’t be hurt, the ones who speak French, forgoing the years of painful work because if they can’t be understood they can’t say anything wrong. The children who wear their sexuality, their gender, their very existence, as a badge of shame.
And, of course, the trouble children who won’t stop talking because as long as they’re talking, as long as they’re writing or arguing then someone’s listening to them. They haven’t been left behind.
Yorktown welcomes them all and does its best to heal them, if they can be healed.Series

“Whizzer, can you please come down and talk to Jason quickly? He wants to talk with you.” Trina said, sounding vaguely worried and annoyed.
Whizzer was up in a moment, pulling on his jacket as he replied. “Of course. I'll be right there.”

What if Whizzer didn't tell Jason to see a psychiatrist? What if there was a reason that left him unable to convince a young child into going to therapy that he clearly didn't want?Just really a small idea that had been burning in my mind so I wrote it down, might add more on later.

Summary
In August 1994, Castiel Novak leaves his sheltered, evangelical homeschooling background in tiny Lebanon, Kansas to attend the University of Kansas in Lawrence. His roommate is Dean Winchester, engineering student and wannabe rock star, who becomes his best friend and turns his world completely upside down. Through a combination of his liberal arts education and his friendship with Dean, Castiel starts to leave behind the strict and unyielding faith of his parents, and eventually starts coming to terms with the fact that his feelings for Dean are more than those of a friend. He's certain the feelings are one-sided, but much worse than unrequited love is what his parents would do if they ever found out. Can Castiel get past his crises of faith, identity, and sexuality to find happiness?
