Anypl(ace)

by August Croft

Ace is asexual. Archie is non-binary. Both are seniors in high school navigating their final year together before college. Through a lakeside cabin, lucid dreams, serious heart surgery, and blue Slurpees, Ace and Archie learn what it means to grow up and grow apart, as well as what it takes to stay together in a world still trying to understand them.
