[WP] Someone watches a snowy city from a bell tower. It's late at night, and someone is crossing the street in the distance. | White flakes swirled in the air, some soaring to kiss the peaks of houses while others gracefully crashed into the building sides. The dirt became less and less, hiding under the white blanket that winter lay down on us. It was the man's fourth night atop the bell tower.

The first time he climbed to the top of the tower was to watch a meteor shower set the sky afire when he was twelve. Solladias wasn't a child anymore, but the view was just as amazing.

[WP] We are only God's side project. | With skillful swipes of his fingers galaxies spawned in just the right locations.

[WP] Tell me the story of your roleplay videogame character, from the perspective of an NPC. | My body seized up as the world around me froze in place.

[WP] Tell me the story of your roleplay videogame character, from the perspective of an NPC. | You know, kids these days are amazing. I've spent my whole life studying and studying, but these kids are surpassing me right out of the gates. I suppose that says something about life experience over reading books.

I was well prepared for my foray into the wasteland this time, but I really found myself in quite a pinch. Pinned in between two boulders with raiders firing upon me from a bluff positioned to the northwest, I was really well and truly fucked.

[WP] Art has been outlawed. | Their twisted pictures that once could be called 'art' had taken a new form. They took expressionism one step too far.

[WP] Art has been outlawed. | Apparently someone once said that art is "anything you can get away with". My father used to whisper it to me at night.
