An anthology of speculative short stories and poetry featuring Aromantic characters. At the heart of this collection are the bonds that impact our lives from beginning to end: platonic relationships.
A cursed seamstress finds comfort in the presence of a witch, teams of demon hunters work with their rival to save one of their own, a peculiar scholar gets attached to those he was meant to study, and Queerplatonic shopkeepers guide a pupil as they explore their relationship needs and desires. Through nineteen stories and poems, Common Bonds explores the ways platonic relationships enrich our lives.
