    Summary

    For a few liminal moments, it was just them, the Shinjuku crowd, the sooth of nicotine, and the achingly familiar companionable silence between them.

    Shoko exhaled smoke, and knew she had to be the one to break it.

    “So. I’ll just go ahead and ask, any chance the charges are false?”

    It was a possibility that had crossed her mind earlier. Not because she thought it was very likely, but more as a brief musing, a ‘what if’ of sorts. Shoko didn’t normally indulge much in those, but her friends also didn’t normally get accused of mass murder. A day for unusual occurrences.

    And either way, it broke their mutual silence.

    Geto stared ahead as he calmly answered exactly what she’d expected. “No. Unfortunately not.”

    There was not a single ounce of remorse in his voice.

    Ieiri Shoko on life, friendship, and loss. Told through an extended version of her brief conversation with Geto in Shinjuku.

    Summary

    Poems from a book I'm writing I deem acceptable enough to at least be seen by people. Mostly because I could never have it in myself to see them deleted. And what are we but hoarders of emotional warfare.

    Enjoy!

    Summary

    Akira Kurusu is 23.
    Twenty-three, and still processing things that happened to him at 16, and 17, and 18.
    Six years have passed since doing the right thing– the only thing, really, that he could do– ruined (ruined? saved?) his life. Five years since his stint as a puppet-turned-defier-of-gods came to an end. Four and half since it actually, finally, stopped. That’s four and a half years, or fifty-four months, or one-thousand, six hundred, and forty-two days, that he has had to move on.
    How could he move on? He still sees the mask in the mirror sometimes.
    How could he not move on? It was, objectively, the worst (worst? best?) year of his life.

    Summary

    When Katrina asked them all out to Maine to help her figure out what to do with the old house she'd inherited, joining had been a no-brainer. But as they fixed up the old house, every one of them got a sense that the decay in this house was more than surface-deep.

    Summary

    The sad man doesn’t always need flowers for the dead, thankfully. Sometimes he says it’s a gift for a woman or a kid. He always talks about the flowers’ recipients as if he is reading from a report, his tone almost detached, but Joe can distinguish the lines of emotion here and there, like delicate little blooms growing between wild bushes.

    “Widower, late sixties. Loves tea and detective novels. No children or pets.”

    Chrysanthemums, gladiolus, and forget-me-nots.

    “Teenage boy. No siblings but many cousins. Likes football and a German rock band.”

    Daisies, columbines, and snapdragons.

    Sometimes the sad man doesn’t show up for a couple of months, and Joe begins to wonder if perhaps he has imagined him after all.

    Joe owns a flower shop where he makes the most beautiful bouquets and arrangements. He takes real pride in his work.

    Unfortunately, he cannot say the same about his non-existent romantic life. Joe wonders if that’s the reason why he has been paying too much attention to his new client, a beautiful man with big eyes and a sad face.

    Summary

    Something is very wrong in Hallownest.

    The Hollow Knight wakes up outside the Temple of the Black Egg. Hornet feels a shift in the kingdom from all the way in Greenpath. Together, the two of them discover the sacrifices each has made—and the grief neither one of them was allowed to feel.

    Hollow survives the Hollow Knight ending, though severely wounded and close to death. Against her better judgement, Hornet takes them under her care. Along the way, Hollow begins to acknowledge their emotions, and Hornet slowly discovers she's been lied to about the true nature of Vessels.

    Summary

    A knot twisted in her stomach as her mind and body registered the proximity of the human Doctor—she was this close to being completely alone with him for the first time. Every nerve ending in her body tingled painfully with anticipation, their kiss on the beach replaying itself on a giddy loop in her head.

    Summary

    “That you, Soot?”
    Wilbur did a double take, blinking at the strangely familiar sound of someone he’d left behind a long time ago.
    “I didn’t know you had my number, Schlatt.” The words were familiar, and he found himself relaxing into the stiff wooden chair of the break room, his half-eaten lunch sitting in his lap.
    “Got it from your father,” Schlatt returned. “Speaking of your father, he’s dead.”
    Wilbur blanched. “What?”
    “His accountant is trying to get a hold of you, pretty sure you're the only person in his will.”
    Wilbur leaned forward until his forehead was resting in his hands. He wasn’t about to mourn his father, but he couldn’t say it wasn’t a shock.
    “Any idea how much he left me?”
    Schlatt took another long sip, a vulgar sound projected right into the receiver. “Spoke to him last week,” he commented. “Said he had a couple hundred million from his last sold business. Could be more.”
    Wilbur quit his job that day to start his new life, or revert back to an old one.

    or

    Wilbur's the son of a so-called mafia boss, who he just inherited the fortune of. Things get more complicated when his father's murderers come after his inheritance.

    Summary

    Chosen stops in front of the door leading to the open balcony, and the space Dark had silently claimed as his laboratory. He can’t help but feel a sense of deja vu once he teared his eyes away from the written notes and grabbed the handle. Something churned in his stomach, cold and odd.

    With bated breath, Chosen pushes the door open.
