The Unnumbered Door
When I first walked into the Harrington Apartments, my shoes stuck a little to the hallway floor. The carpet changed color halfway down, as if someone ran out of one kind and just kept going with another. The brass banister was loose in its brackets, wobbling a little when I brushed past. Everything looked clean, but not cared for, like someone kept wiping the same layer of age instead of removing it.

The Mirror Equation
Dr. Artie Thomas believed truth could be measured if only one built the right instrument. For twelve years, he chased a theorem that shimmered like a mirage at the edge of physics: parallel decoherence windows, where quantum probabilities formed thin, temporary bridges between near-identical realities. He called his invention the Aperture Array. His colleagues called it impossible.
