Men on the Moon
Nobody at NASA gave a goddamn about the weather in Jersey. This fact, as true and as simple as it was, had not stopped my Aunt Rosie from pacing around the parlor all morning and pressing her face to the front window in search of thunderstorms.

The Day Everyone Got the Same Dream
Sarah Martinez thought she was losing her mind when she woke up at 3:47 AM on Tuesday, October 15th, drenched in sweat and haunted by the most vivid dream of her life. A massive digital countdown floating in an endless white void: 72:00:00. Seventy-two hours.

Kindness Tastes Like Lemon Tea. AI-Generated.
I never liked tea. Not the bitter green kind, not the herbal kind my mom kept insisting would help me “balance out,” and definitely not the flowery ones that tasted like wilted garden petals.

The Door Was Never Locked
Marla always cried during commercials—especially the ones with dogs in them. Her friends joked about it. Her brother used to nudge her at the movies when the sad scenes hit. “Sensitive,” they said, like it was a diagnosis. Like it was something she’d outgrow.

Strigen’s Forest
Strigen’s Forest rigen’s ForestSometime in the hereafter, in a kingdom once ruled by laughter, a deep fog crawled through the valleys and over the hills, covering the land like a forgotten spell.

Under the Crimson Sky
By Nadeem Shah The sky bled red the evening I returned to Raven Hollow. I hadn’t been back in twelve years—not since the night everything I believed in was shattered.
