“It’s been forever! I haven’t seen you since high school!” These greetings pop up like weeds in the hidden message requests of your inbox. Most of us just delete and move on, but what if just once, out of curiosity, you decided to message back? What horrors would unfold from the dark world of multi-level marketing scams? What’s really in the Tupperware your guest brought to the dinner party? Is that peppermint oil in your IV bag? Did the pastor’s wife actually just hand you a bottle of lube? We want to see your wildest crossovers! All stories must have an MLM element; characters involved do not need to be cis men. We just need it to be queer.
