0	"Gary, you really messed up today," Henry said as they walked towards the Disciplinary Office for the umpteenth time that month. It was more common than not that would be Gary's first stop after his missions. "What was I supposed to do, Henry? You couldn't have done any better! I was just at the wrong place at the ...
1	"I seduce the dragon." "Uh... roll for charisma?" I looked across the table at the little goth girl wearing a robin hood hat with a single white peacock feather stuck in the brim. Wednesday, or rather Wodensdag, as was the name of her bard, dropped the dice with a clatter. "17," she reported. I rolled my own die. ...
2	It rose from the depths in a rush of water, it's piercing howl instantly recognized by everyone. He was real and he was angry. Fortunatly, he was also intelligent. Intellogent enough to know who had fired several long ranged missiles at him at least. And so, upon emerging from the deptha, Godzilla made for North Korea...
3	All these years of chasing mythical beasts around the world and never catching anything on film but shadows and muffled static were taking their toll on my faith. Sure, I could tell you about the time I chased Bigfoot through the mountains of Colorado, or the days I spent frantically hiding from a hungry Chupacabra in ...
4	Even though I am only 15 all I want in life is to become a superhero and join the Pyramid, an elite group of Heroes that save the world constantly. The only problem is that since I am too young they will not allow me on the team. This infuriates me but it is what it is. In order to still put my best foot forward and he...
5	"Owww!" I yelped. The Father stepped back. His eyes widened, and his face stiffened. "...Sorry, it was hot." I tried explaining myself. I'm glad it was only a few drops, I couldn't imagine the scars boiling water must leave. "Hush now." The man responded and reached inside his clerical outfit. "It's my mistake." ...
6	Learn magic in 12 weeks! Hands-on, experiential workshops offered with master spellcasters in the industry. Sign up today! These darn flyers were all over the place. Some were even clever enough to replicate itself when you tried to rip it off the alley walls. Everyone and their mom thought they were the next Merlin...
7	ABSTRACT: This paper reports the results of an experiment undertaken to understand the primal nature and natural instincts of mankind. A faux-natural environment was created in several different facilities, in which differing numbers of children were placed in order to observe their interactions and survival instincts....
8	"It seems the humans had quite the variety of sounds that they recreationally listened to," Anith recorded as he flipped through the various frequencies. "Some ranging from hauntingly beautiful to garishly explosive." Theena reached for the lines and popped the ends in her ears. She immediately winced as a mindless ca...
9	"All right, let's check the map. Target has to be around here somewhere." The wizard said from the front of the party. I felt a cold bead of sweat run down my neck. My status sheet, opened up before me, spelled out the two words of horror. "Demon King" it said next to my class. I checked out the body I'd spawne...
10	8.247.437.237 ... 8.247.441.280 ... 8.247.458.546 ... It had been three days since I had been given the scythe. Enough time had passed to come to terms with the fact that the numbers were not only rising; they were accelerating. If it wasn't enough that I was still in deep mourning after the funeral of ...
11	Duct tape. Three feet of rope. A pink dress on a wire hanger. The time I pulled out a monkey wrench, I guessed there was a plumbing problem. I went to the basement, and there was a leaky pipe. Another time, I pulled out a bandage, and figured a cut was coming. Ten minutes later, despite my caution, I brushed against ...
12	"Hi, I'm calling for Mr. Ron Andrews. Is he available?" "This is Ron. Who is it this time? Elastic Boy?Mirrors? Centaur Steve?" I was trying to put together my daughter's lunch for school when the call had come in. My wife looked at me, heard my end of the conversation, and buried her head in her arms, trying to hide...
13	My host reminded me of an old western movie with the two cowboys, one cleanly shaven with sharp blue eyes and his fingers twitching near his gun, the other a bushy black mustache with eyes dark as death, chewing on a piece of hay. This town ain't big enough for the two of us. John released a single laugh before his...
14	The large man sat against the rock, rubbing his wrists. "Thank you, kind stranger, for freeing me from my prison." Clad in only a loincloth, he seemed unconcerned with the wind whistling across the mountain top. Gerald shivered in his coat; he was not built for such weather, but Sally had insisted that they go on a...
15	I remember when my Dad was processed. Well, I remember it vaguely. I was only 5 at the time. I was too young to understand what was going to happen. At the time I thought it was just a fun family gathering. Dad wore his best suit, and I got to eat ice cream cake. It was delicious. Now, it's my 35th birthday. Jenny got...
16	Guys, we can't LARP if we only talk about doing it on discord. Let's do like a practice sesh on the voice channel. I typed in the general chat, sighing. I liked this group. They really liked to stay in character. But they just didn't want to meet up and do this. And I was supposed to be the introverted one. Barry...
17	Dear Markus, If you are reading this, I would like to apologize. Okay, you see, there are a lot of things I gotta explain, but I really don’t wanna sound like a Text Block Terry. *Long story short, I got scared of the relationship. I really do love you. Please don’t think I don’t. I just... I couldn’t bear to see...
18	"All civilisations have had slavery in the past, you can't deny that can you." "I wasn't denying it. I'm saying that it is wrong to force a sentient..." "Forced? No we don't force them into slavery. THAT would be barbarism." "So you are saying that sentient beings, of indefinite lifespan and immeasurable intelligenc...
19	“See the careful way she draws the ever complex cube.” I said to her. She gave me a brief sideways glare before continuing. “Ah the masterful drawing of straight lines. Oh wait, what’s this? A right angle!? Oh stop the presses she’s managed to just outline the outside corner of the cube and hang on. Is she going to? Sh...
20	My entire world changed at the tender age of eleven. It began with inhuman strength. Then, it was invulnerability. Since fate decided for me to get the dice roll of a lifetime, I have slowly accumulated the power of the gods. Today, I finally reach omnipotence. It would be a waste if this power was wasted so here I am,...
21	"Has the experiment finally succeeded? Will I be known as the one to have truly materialized the magnificent body of our noodly lord?" I obsessively stared at the tupperware container in the hopes that my life-instilling contraption had fulfilled its duty. My lab coat was splattered with the nourishing tomato sauce ...
22	"So..." I said, my brain feverishly trying to remember even one actual interview question in the face of this insanity. "So..." the interviewee mimicked, as if trying the find the shape of the word in its - his - mouth. He was, largely, person shaped. He looked more like a drawing of a person, done from memory by some...
23	People are into safety. They pay big money for it. Burglar alarms, life insurance, the military: all things people shell it out for, hoping they never need it. What's the key to a successful product? Its gotta be cheap to manufacture, but something the customer will shell it out for. Something unlike, for instance, s...
24	"What do you mean 'out of options'?" Jerry asked, half chuckling. Even with the seriousness of the situation, Robert's actions seemed comical. "There's no other choice. I'm using the jetpack." Robert's deep, rough voice gave no hint of sarcasm. It suddenly donned on Jerry that he might not be joking. "Robert, this ...
25	Ok,I'm doing it. I am SICK of mynan always killing their pet humans, sick of it. For goodness sake it's not that hard to keep a human alive. But apparently, for some mynan it is, so here's my book, Human care for Dummies. 1) They breathe air. Oxygen. Hydrogen. Gases. Not water, not slime and definately not coconut ...
26	What happens then is they move as though taken by some force, a very weak one, but one with some purpose but no reason. It moves them as though in dance, and they see this happening, and their eyes dart sometimes, in embarrassment and horror, and then in shared social relief. For everyone nearby is doing it. If ever...
27	The first and final blow had been struck, a bolt of purple lightning that tore open the sky and shattered the ground beneath them. The clouds that had been the herald of the spell now burst, sending a torrent of rain over the broken earth and bodies of the people that had come to challenge the necromancer. He scoffed...
28	The news logo popped on television, followed by the news music. "Tonight: the scientists across the world are meeting to discuss why people stopped dying. Hospitals and..." The attractive newscaster droned on, but I shifted the focus to our dinner. Ceasar salad in the wooden bowl. Seitan steak right off the grill. Ke...
29	I walked into the bar and everyone laughed. I was in a pink dress, just one of the many results of my curse, and everyone thought it was hilarious. They stopped laughing when I knocked out three of them in one blow. I sat at my usual stool, and ordered a beer. "Joe?" the guy next to me, Bill, asked. "Is that you?" ...
30	I am not a good person, not really. I like to think I am, but I'm just like you. I don't keep cash in my wallet so I don't feel guilty for not giving any to the pan handlers. I drive right past that guy hitch hiking, after all they could be a serial killer! I might hold the door open for people behind me but by god you...
31	I’m pretty sure that the cat was domesticated. Mostly sure. She was large, at least the size of a full-blooded Maine Coon. When she ate, her teeth were like little white daggers half the size of a finger. Her claws tended to leave marks on… everything. I was thankful that she’d only taken up residence on my porch, and ...
32	[INT: POLICE INTERROGATION ROOM] The room is lit only by a single hanging lamp over a rectangular table. A WOMAN is seated on one side of the table, her hands shackled to a loop in the center with handcuffs w/ long chains. About 35, She's dressed in business suit, her hair is a close blonde pixie cut, and her blue eye...
33	I woke up in my holding cell, the warm sweat of yesterday's "make the subject sleep on a hot plate" test still soaking my shirt. Honestly, these "experiments" are just getting ridiculous. This stopped being funny ages ago. Sure, I can leave by punching a hole in the wall, but where's the fun in that? I'm still sticking...
34	"Sir, the radar is reporting thinner clouds." "Again?" "Sir, yes, sir!" "Have the planes confirmed it?" "Last plane trip confirmed sunlight at one kilometer!" "I see." General Claudius was the last of a long generation of generals in the prestigious Skye family -- reputed for protecting the Isle of Precipitaea fro...
35	Part 1: I have three secrets. Secrets I have kept for my entire life. Things that I had discovered as a child, and resolved to keep to myself for the rest of my life. The first secret I discovered is that I am the most powerful person alive. I was born a Telepath, like my father before me. Able to read minds, but tha...
36	"Grandpa come on! We're gonna be late!" "Alrighty, hold your horses. I ain't the nimble young lad I used to be." Kyle Forrester had promised to take his grandkids Austin and Gary on a trip during their summer break, however he was surprised to hear that of all the amusement parks and places they could go they decided...
37	I'd turned 21 the day I found what I could do. I remember because my girlfriend and I had just had a colossal fight, resulting from my learning about her infidelity. She'd been the first to go. I'd searched for her for weeks, trying to understand how we could go from fighting to her simply gone in a matter of seconds....
38	note: resubmitted *Year 45* "Will it hurt?" I asked. The doctor shrugged apologetically. "We really don't know, John. You would be the first human to undergo the procedure." "Ah. I'm just a guinea pig." My rueful chuckles dissolved into wracking coughs. The doctor handed me a cup of water. "You're right," he...
39	Ten years since the Great War ended, and the world was scorched. Ten awful years of scrounging for drops of clean water and unirradiated food and doing plenty of things I’m not proud of to get them. Like today. Our little group of nomads, five including myself and two horses, were scouring what was once Germany for wa...
40	The American sat across from them at a large, weather-beaten table; no doubt looted from a long abandoned school that the monsters who shared the same table had been responsible for closing. The room was full of a cold silence as they all exchanged searching glances. Four years. Four years of undercover work. Four yea...
41	Congratulations, Dr Reilly. You are the fourteenth human to successfully travel forward in time. The year is 2118. Please take a moment to absorb this information before attempting to stand up. Jesus. I... I thought- *I will pause for 10 seconds before continuing so as to allow you to ponder the significance of...
42	It truly was Utopia. All of us had studied the implications of utopic societies as portrayed in literature and film throughout human history and we all knew why those ideas didn't work. We - or rather the quantum computer core humanity had built - had identified that one of the key components of maintaining a perfe...
43	“Hello, Mark.” Without looking, I know it’s Luca. “Hello. The usual for you again?” I ask, already knowing the answer. “Yep,” he smiles. “Just another tally mark.” I nod and escort him to a chair. “I’ll be with you in a minute.” From the back room, I grab the supplies I need: a disinfectant, petroleum jelly, an...
44	One second I was walking back home at night, the next a flash of blinding light and when I opened me eyes I stood in a bare, metallic oval-shaped room. A voice echoed from everywhere, even though I couldn't see any openings in the metal. It spoke in an odd language, not one I had ever heard. It was more foreign than fo...
45	They say that the Earth had been proven to be flat for centuries before the edge was found. Ancient philosophers, mathematicians, and scientists all had evidence of such. But of course, no one remembers them. They only remember the discovery of the edge, by the great explorer Nallegam. It was not a literal edge, of c...
46	This, however, only raised suspicion as to what could possibly exist on the planet's surface. Thus, private projects began to spring up; one after another. It seemed the more the government withheld information, the more determined people became to seek out the truth. Finally, 10 years later, the first civilian exped...
47	James woke up feeling unnaturally happy. He didn't expect the lack of comms to hit him so hard, but being the only person on a planet without any form of communication had gotten to him. Regardless. Today was the day. He could finally communicate with the world again. He got up, showering and preparing his morning c...
48	THE BEING was terrible and powerful and awesome beyond comprehension; HE evoked the kind of imagery that would scar a man through cuts that would not form, and burn away eyes not possessed by the minds of men. And yet, HE was at the annual conference on deep ocean vertebrate biology, and frankly, this was the 37th lea...
49	"Alright, Mr. Isla, I'm about to activate your prosthetic eyes. I've we've darkened the room, but the brightness will still sting for a while." Enrique Isla was sitting upright on his hospital bed when he heard an electric hum up followed by a sharp sensation... brightness. That was all he could describe it as. Brig...
50	I sigh. I am prepared for this. I've been on Reddit. I've seen the AskReddit Threads and the WhatIf Threads. So I make my choice, and go for the duck-sized horses. The funny thing is that horses are actually, generally, skittish and wary of new people, so as I enter this new room, which is designed like a mini horse ...
51	Lenny cracks his knuckles as Sarah watches her grandfather close his eyes, take a deep breath, and slowly open his eyes. He pushes back his gray hair with his hand, pauses, and smiles at Sarah. He pushes a plate with a sandwich towards her and says, "Come on, eat up. Show your grandpa you're a good eater." "Grandpa, ...
52	"What?" I said in surprise. "Tag, your it!" The hooded hooligan said with a giggle. I decided to sit back and process what was happening. The Grim Reaper was slowly gaining the most doofiest smile in anticipation for my response. "Ok, is this some kind of trick?" The Reaper's grin went away. "Look, buddy, my boss h...
53	'Thank you for coming in today, Mr Flynn, I believe you're our last interviewee of the day!' 'Thanks for your time.' 'My name is Reverend Thomas, I am the lead teacher in religious studies at St Paul's Church of England Secondary School and I also officiate the weekly catholic assembly for the students. I suppose the...
54	I stared at the revolver sitting in my hand, a weapon designed to take a life, to end a life, my last chance at salvation. I pointed the gun to my Temple and pulled the trigger. I was met with a full clanging sound and the feeling of overwhelming defeat. I had expected as much, these suits were designed to withstand ...
55	He heard her snoring. It was time. Neil carefully reached across the bed and lightly grabbed Ali’s shoulder. The room was dark, but he could just barely make out her small sleeping figure. He was careful, as silent as his large frame could move on the noisy mattress. If Ali woke up, it was over. Two years of timid an...
56	A group of Neophytes stand at attention in a dusty training hall. A grizzled Templar paces before them, searching for any flaw in their stances, any weakness in their eyes. He is long retired from active duty, but his back is ramrod straight and he wears his pockmarked armor with pride. "Who is our Enemy?" he barks. ...
57	My mouth tasted like a raccoon fire put out by a bag of wet moldy trash. The docs said my chemistry would be off when we woke up but they didn't tell me my tongue would make my eyes water. The cryosleep hadn't killed me - obviously - so that was one good thing. Of course, the only reason I went in there was because the...
58	The air crackled as bolts of electricity played upon his outstretched hands. “Now feel the full power of your conqueror, I, The God of Sparkles!” I sighed heavily. Another day, another lame invader. This guy was probably only a level 2, but whatever. What could you expect when you were the ruler of a province but on...
59	Tony was sat on a stool, hunched over, gripping a small piece of chalk. On the wall behind him were thousands of tally marks that almost stretched across the entire thing. Tony was in the middle of counting them, he did this every now and then to keep track of the time. Last he checked he had just passed the 20 year ...
60	Author's note: Haha, this is a great prompt! Lots of potential. "Hey! Welcome to North Korea, the hottest new vacation spot in the world! I haven't seen you here before, you must be a new member. Here, let me take your coat?" "Yes, the weather's actually quite nice! It turns out that we have a very favorable m...
61	Stormlights tormented the skies, teasing, needling and gouging the crooks, the crannies of deepest horizon with pitchforks of blue and white. The sluicing rain tumbled on the boy's back. A broken back that belonged to a shivering boy. The thundering skies observed the unspoken lamentation of the outcast; eyeing him w...
62	"Control, this is Pale Squad. We are in the Mist. Copy". "We copy Pale Squad. Keep your wits about you. God's speed". The radio crackled into silence and the five men strode deeper into the clinging mist. Its wisps clung to their uniforms, leaving trails behind them. They moved in unison, closer than normal due to th...
63	They are all dead. Everyone I know, everyone I have ever loved. Gone. The storm had come out of nowhere and it had been the pilots only choice. The small plane crashed down in Uunartoq, a small frozen wasteland north of Greenland. I was at the rear of the plane and in a section that snapped off on the initial impact. ...
64	Sally pulled at her lunch, trying to keep calm as it refused to budge. Her sandwiches were, once again, glued to the fridge shelf by honey. With a last yank they finally came free and she was able to examine the now somewhat soggy and squashed package. She took a breath and counted to five, before turning to Ben, who...
65	"Oh Jim!!" She exclaimed, a look of stunned awe upon her face. "You're...a- alive!" Tears poured down her face as she gasped for air, still in a shock of emotion. Jim hugged her tight and said "I know, I know. I'm sorry I'm so sorry." He gently moved her so they were level and said "Heaven was full so they sent me ba...
66	Between the holiday season rolling in a superfluous number of suicides and the souls of the sinful constantly attempting to overthrow their ruler and find escape, the devil miraculously finds time to work a break into his busy schedule to decompress from his bothersome duties and responsibilities. He groans as he settl...
67	My wife Jane had an almost supernatural ability to cook, sometimes making amazing dishes out of whatever was left in the kitchen. Slowly I pulled to the edge of the curb and parked my old beat up suburban parked just around the bend. She always said the same phrase when I asked here how she always managed to achieve ne...
68	Edan Mask froze in place. He had one foot on the last step of the rocket and the other one on the surface. The shivering stopped. “What is going on?” he asked his companion Booze Allin. “You should better get back in here and wait for further instructions. In about 20 minutes we should get the message.” Allin said. ...
69	Emotions are complicated, they make life complicated in ways you'd never expect at times you'd never think of. Emotions also complicate life when you don't have them. No constant hum of this or that, no flights of fancy, no passions. Everything I did, every decision I made borne of logic and factual input, like a robo...
70	The King Mage of Nothing The heathen armies of the North had been sieging the Capitol for three years. In that same time, I’d lost my three children. First it was starvation, which claimed my baby boy. Then it was disease, which claimed my only daughter. And finally it was the unrest, the riots, which had claimed ...
71	"So sorry I am late, Congressman," I called, slipping through the steel door as it hissed open. "Unfortun-" "Don't worry," the Owl-like Adrivan answered from behind his desk. "Everyone has a run-in with predators now and again. You were coming from Earth, right?" the representative from Kyldan-Alpha didn't bother look...
72	Larry checked the clock again. 4:59. He and about thirty others all sat at the edge of their seats, eager to leave J&J Tele-Survey for the weekend. No more sitting in a prison cell called a cubicle. No more getting yelled at by stay at home moms once every four and a half minutes. That statistic was real, calcul...
73	General Falto of the Ifreez, current head race of Unified space sat in his office going over some reports with his main advisor. "First the Gwendar, then the Hoaran, several other horrific creatures I don't care to mention and now some weird vampiric slugs from Udeseen IV? What in the hell are they doing out there an...
74	T: You've got to be fucking me, she is right there Steve! S: Who? T: Rachel. S: From Physics? T: Yes! S: I don't see anyone. T: My ass 'you don't see anyone', she's watching me here and she has been following me all day! S: Are you okay man? Like, my dad was seeing my mom a bunch before he snapped. Is Rachel jus...
75	"Watcher to Overhead. No hostiles sighted, Gearshift and Sonar are cleared to continue east for 100 metres." Watcher waited for the reply "Copy, Watcher" the female voice came on the return transmission "I'll inform the others." Watcher was one of four members of the Heisari prospecting team on Allara. Heisari was ...
76	I just had to do it. Go into my old-school coffee shop and act like a hipster. "Black coffee and a regular donut" wasn't good enough for me today. I had to try and be funny and order an "Americano and a beignet." I thought he just looked at me funny since he knew my order and has no sense of humor. I wasn't going to qu...
77	I finally understand. I finally understand the Humans. I was assigned to them to study their “death,” as they call it. This state of un-being. We thought it to be lies and deception, to hide something greater. But no, it is not so. We hypothesized that they just went dormant and would wake sooner, but no, when Humans...
78	So much fuss over so little. Yeah yeah, he robbed a bank. They're insured, who cares? Now, in the ensuing battle, Mr Gorgeous and Captain Steelhead have caused untold damage to the lives of the average citizen. That's why I keep my ass planted right here in front of the TV watching the cape and cowl crowd make asses...
79	The human race always figured there was other races out among the stars, and for many years they had plans for when they eventually made contact. The first visitors seemed friendly enough, a couple of explorers from EG 89. They stayed on Earth for twelve years, telling the humans as much as they could. Their departure ...
80	The spikes were what did it. A white picket fence is good and all, especially when paired with an immaculate lawn and neat garden beds filled to the brim with daffodils and lilies. Red bricks too, with wide, open windows and a welcome mat that actually said ‘welcome’ rather than spouting some amusing turn of phrase. ...
81	Earths Divided: Part I Earth It was a disaster. Midway, our first space station. She was old, but built at a pivotal moment in history. A joint project, pooling the resources of every nation on Earth. A permanent presence in space, a symbol of our ingenuity. Or so the Sovereign claims. And it might even be true to a...
82	I was out goofing off with my good friends. We were out by a lake, jumping off of a tall waterfall, maybe 50 feet high. I took a running start to jump, but I tripped at the last second and fell the entire distance onto solid rock. I was messed up pretty damned good, and I was rushed to the emergency room. The doctors t...
83	"Ladies and Gentlemen! The final test of skill, dexterity, and endurance!" A loud voice shook the colosseum that sat the entirety of the human race. Cheers exploded, confetti rained, women wept. I looked up at the spectacle. Billions of voices rose in jubilation. A piece of colored paper landed in my thick black m...
84	"Oh wow! This old thing!" I've found something. "... Let's see if this old boy still has it." I look around the basement, dust from the items I've been disturbing drifting through the poorly lit room. There are piles of stuff along every wall and stacked in random spots around the room. A lifetime of memories... an ...
85	Private Helena stepped out into the cold autumn day. She breathed in deeply through her nose savouring the brisk chill. She looked down at her terrier, Sausage who looked back at her with enthusiastic, expectant twitchiness, she bent over and clipped a leash to his collar. She stepped onto the sidewalk and broke into ...
86	There is nothing. And then there is light. There is bright, white light, a sensation of tumbling, and a faint rushing noise — a faint rushing noise that gets louder and louder, until it builds to a deafening crescendo. Finally, this is punctuated with a definitive “pop”, which seems from the approach as if god himself ...
87	He swirled the dark red wine in the glass before bringing it to his nose for a deep smell. He attempted to hide the grimace from his face, but in attempting to cover his displeasure he made his disgust more apparent. He drank the foul concoction and was barely able to choke it down. "Jesus," he whispered. He heard the ...
88	"That hour is just for you," said the old man across the counter. He dangled the antique pocket watch so the unique symbol was fully displayed to Jason. The old salesman snapped the watched closed, and laid it on the counter top. "How much would you be willing to part for it?" Jason could care less about the mystery ...
89	There seemed nothing out of the ordinary about a child of six sporting little cuts and bruises at first. All children of that age fall over, scrape their knees and bump into chairs and tables. As a particularly clumsy and forgetful child, I'd often have no idea how I got them - I'd just assume that I'd fallen over or s...
90	It is ragged, and sweet, and full of life. Her breath fills her lungs, deep and full, as if she is inhaling the totality of life with one breath. And in a rush, it all escapes through her lips. Her breathing becomes even and measured, and tentatively she opens her eyes. Surrounding her are seven Automatons, who swiv...
91	"Right here?" I asked. The lead cultist nodded, his knife held to my son's throat. "Right now?" Again, the cultist shook his head vigorously up and down. His followers also nodded their desire to see this done, wicked daggers gleaming in the gentle lamp light of my home. I shrugged and craned my neck, cracking out the ...
92	“Ma’am you have a call waiting.” Beatrice said from outside my office. I pressed a fingertip against the crystal mirror sitting in the center of my desk. There was a brilliant flash of light and a man in a black robe stared out of the mirror at me. His features were concealed beneath a black hood. “Lady Kareena. ...
93	Eric Abel, who goes by the alias 'Magic Man', was sitting in a massive concrete shelter built around a decommissioned reactor in the heart of an abandoned nuclear power plant. He was waiting to be bum rushed by the world's most powerful people, his colleagues. He is considered by most to be the worlds most powerful h...
94	##Scared to Love Dylan waits by the storage room for Lisa. He messaged her before first period that he needed help with his math homework. She said okay, and she said that she was available after school. He asked her to meet him by his last class which just so happens to be by the old storage room. If she says no or d...
95	They called it Thorn of Despair. Idiots, naming something after what it does. I walked up the palace steps unchecked, a guard in bright royal colours keeping me in his eye but only protecting the throne room in earnest. They wanted the poor to come in here and see the artifacts. They wanted us to know the Empress had s...
96	I feel like I know everything about Tiffany. Aside from the life backstory stuff that every significant other knows about their spouse, no I mean I know everything. I’ve visited her at work. I can tell by how much water is in her jug how her day is going. I can tell by how much time she’s had to drink it. I can tell if...
97	"How was your weekend?" "Oh, yeah! Solved the Fermi paradox." "Hah, nice. I went to this really cool restaurant where - " " - no, I'm serious man." "What are you talking about?" "It's in the dark matter." "What's in the dark matter?" "All the alien shit." My colleague Eleanor gave me a look, and sipped her dr...
98	It was the way he stared at me. Golden retrievers are friendly, loving dogs - everyone knows that - but frankly, not particularly clever.
