Depression AU
Story
Marco, a prostitute, lives in poverty in a run-down apartment building in a large, bustling city. Next door, in a different building, lives Bertholdt, another prostitute. The two of them meet Reiner independent of one another - Marco while working on the street, Bertholdt while at a food pantry - and the three of them start something they hope will bring them out of what they were born into. Unfortunately, every effort of theirs fails, and they all die before they turn 30.
Characters
Marco Bodt - A prostitute living in poverty. He strikes up a friendship with Bertholdt, who becomes more than a friend after the two of them meet Reiner. He ends up dying of a heroin overdose and is the first of the three to die.
Bertholdt Hoover - Another prostitute living in poverty. He bonds with Marco over their shared life experience, and with the addition of Reiner, he ends up falling in love with them both. He's the second to die, unable to cope with Marco's death. He slits his wrists in the bath.
Reiner Braun - A homeless man haunted by his past. He meets and rents Marco, but just as a listening ear and comforting presence. He keeps coming back and rents both Bert and Marco once he meets Bert, even though he can't afford to, because he is desperate to be known and loved. He drinks himself to death and is the last to die.
Jean Kirstein - One of Marco's regulars. He's not unkind, but he takes what he wants without any regard for Marco's pleasure. He realizes he feels more than he'd like for the man and chooses to apologize for his selfish behavior, hoping to start a new chapter of his life with him - but nothing ever comes of it.
