Yeah, it's really sad that there are barely any original stories, no matter what industry you look into. Everything's either a remake, a sequel, or an adaptation. Even with books, despite having original ideas, so many books these days are retellings of classics or myths, or they end up being published fanfiction. (I'm pretty sure Heated Rivalry falls into this category, as Scott and Kip are literally Stucky.)

Heated Rivalry was FanFiction? I read the book recently and I have to say though that the series did something really good with it, Otherwise (to me) it just read like a run-of-the-mill love story.

The Off campus teaser is out, Again, idk how I feel about it but I guess I will be watching

So Book #1 (ScottxKip's story) was Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes fanfiction. Idk about Ilya and Shane, some people say they were original characters but others mentioned them being in the og fanfic so who knows 🤷🏽‍♀️

Off-Campus just isn't for me. I've also heard some stuff about Elle Kennedy that makes me not want to support the project.
