NEW ACHIEVEMENT! And They Were Roommates by eclectillector
Fandoms: Dungeon Crawler Carl Series - Matt Dinniman

Summary
You know, Crawler, historians used to have a fascinating habit.
Two men would live together for forty years. They'd share a house. Share a bed. Raise a cat together. Leave each other everything in their wills. Write letters so disgustingly affectionate that they make romance novels look emotionally constipated.
And historians would look at all of this and conclude:
"What close friends."
Amazing.
Truly a level of denial normally reserved for cult leaders, reality television contestants, and people who think they're "just being nice."
Now, to be fair, housing costs are terrible. Sometimes two fully grown men do end up sharing an apartment. Sometimes they do sleep in the same bed. Sometimes they do spend every waking moment worrying about each other. Sometimes they do accidentally build a life together.
But eventually, Crawler, there comes a point where you're not fooling anybody anymore.
Not the audience.
Not the cat.
And definitely not yourselves.
REWARD:
You've unlocked the passive skill: Heterosexuality (Contested).The effectiveness of this skill decreases every time you call your roommate "family."

Summary
“I thought the worrying would be over.” She said quietly. I could tell that she wasn’t playing anymore. The mask was off. “Once we got out of the dungeon, we weren’t supposed to lose anyone anymore. Please don’t make me lose someone else.”
“Fine,” I muttered. “Fuck, Donut, fine. I’ll send him a chat, okay?”
Donut curled closer, purring loudly as I pulled up the chat function. I scrolled past the few chats I had since the dungeon closed, updates from various members of the group flicking by as I searched for a thread that hadn’t been used in almost a year.
Carl: Hey, Mordecai. It’s been a while. Donut and I were just talking and wanted to see if you wanted to visit. We miss you. Donut especially.

This is a story about guilt, forgiveness, and finding a home even if you think you no longer deserve one.

The Ilya Rozanov (Former Hater) Support Group by TylerReed

Summary
For some reason, everyone has a terrible first impression of Ilya Rozanov. Many have an outlandish hatred of him, distrust him, or think he's a terrible fit for Shane Hollander in one way or another. They see him as the villain in Shane's love story, regardless of Shane's many objections to the contrary.
Unfortunately for them, they couldn't be more wrong about Ilya, and each and every one of them is going to slowly come to realize what a good man he is, firsthand, as Ilya worms his way into their hearts and minds.
Or, the 5 times where the cast of Game Changers finally realized Ilya Rozanov was a great man, and the 1 time Ilya Rozanov finally got the first impression he deserved.

if shane hollander gets mad at me reading about him getting blasted in the ass then he can check his bank account. i know ilya would be chill with it though
Luca Haas tries very hard to not let anyone know about his dark (read: embarrassing) past. Unfortunately, the fans are ready to let people know for him.
Or, Luca used to run a tumblr blog for Hollanov and the internet goes wild.
