Cosmic Contagion signing! Meet Jackson Wolfe! The day has finally come! Everything in Ellie's life might have needed rearranging just to attend the Cosmic Contagion book signing, but it was worth it to meet her favorite author of all time! Until she enters the store the signing is at, only to find out tickets are needed and she doesn't have one! Before she suffers death (and maybe rebirth as a zombie) by humiliation, Ellie literally runs into Zack, who offers her his extra ticket. Approaching people is not Zack's strong suit. Couple that with the crushing anxiety of fitting in with societal norms and dealing with the pressure his friends and family put on him to conform... well, Zack's used to not getting the girl. No one can seem to get past the fact that Zack is autistic, sure, but he doesn't need all their 'help' to navigate life. Zack just needs to live, and maybe fall in love, his own way.
