October the Great
There’s a little-known fact in the universe: October wasn’t always the most beloved month. In fact, centuries ago, October was seen as a sort of awkward prelude to the “real” festivities of the year. Back then, it was known for its unpredictable weather, bland harvests, and that awkward feeling when the calendar reminded you the year was nearly over, and you still hadn’t hit your New Year’s resolutions. People couldn’t wait to fast-forward to the holiday season with its twinkling lights, pumpkin pies, and gift-giving chaos.

Unreliable
Alright, let me tell you a story, and I swear on my grandma’s cat’s life that every word of this is true… mostly. It all started one Wednesday morning. Or was it Thursday? Doesn’t matter. The important part is, I woke up in my apartment—my very well-organized, totally not messy apartment—and I was ready to conquer the day. Now, some people might say I overslept until noon and had cereal for lunch. But those people don’t understand my commitment to brunch. Also, who are they to judge what’s an appropriate meal? The milk was still good, and the cereal had a healthy number of marshmallows.

The Poison type
Latios sat at the kitchen table, the old wood creaking beneath his elbows as he leaned forward, staring at the remnants of dinner. The house was quiet except for the muffled sound of the television in the living room where his mother, Nidoqueen, sat absorbed in her nightly routine. Lately, that routine had become a ritual—hours spent poring over Jehovah’s Witness literature, watching sermons, and taking notes in her well-worn Bible. It was as if the woman who had raised him, the strong, independent mother he once knew, had slowly slipped away, replaced by someone he barely recognized.

Under the Stardust Sky
Jack Atlas had never thought much about love. It wasn't a priority when he was focused on climbing the ranks of the Duel Monsters world, chasing victory after victory. His title as the "Master of Faster" was all that mattered—until Carley Carmine came into his life, and everything changed.

Collision of Kings. AI-Generated.
Seijuro Akashi was a man of precision, discipline, and unshakable control. On the basketball court, his presence alone commanded respect, his Emperor Eye seeing through every opponent’s next move. Off the court, he was equally composed, always the smartest person in the room, always a step ahead. But when Michael Kaiser arrived on the scene, that sense of control began to falter.

Bad Luck Absol
Absol always had a reputation. In the small town of Willow Creek, his name was whispered in hushed tones, like a curse. People said he brought bad luck, that wherever he went, misfortune followed. He didn’t believe in such superstitions—at least, not at first.

Bye! Summer! Hello Fall!
The last days of August were heavy with the kind of heat that seemed to slow the world down. The cicadas hummed lazily in the trees, and the sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows across the fields. Amelia sat on the porch of her family’s farmhouse, watching the corn sway in the breeze, its golden stalks nearly ready for harvest. There was a certain melancholy in the air, as if the summer itself was reluctant to let go, clinging to its last moments.

How Gallade threw out the Trash
Gallade had always been cautious when it came to relationships. As a demisexual, he needed an emotional connection before he could feel any attraction. In a world that often seemed obsessed with quick flings and superficial connections, this made dating challenging, to say the least. But Gallade had always held out hope that he would find someone who understood him, who would value the deep connection he needed.

The Disappearance of Sky
For years, Emily had been caught in a web spun by her best friend, Sky, and his boyfriend, Scoot. It wasn’t obvious at first; Sky had been her closest friend since 2019. They’d shared almost everything—their hopes, their fears, their late-night existential crises. Sky was funny, intelligent, and kind, or at least, that’s what she thought.
