CRAZY
Not again. The presence. I can feel the chill. The breeze of an entity passing past me. Taunting me. Again. This story begins many years ago. A tiny community constructed next to the large, ominous at times, lake in the woods. No one knew the series of spirit connection to the structure that had been relocated to this very spot so long ago. This structure itself attached to a famously known haunted church from miles down the road. These spirits are not happy and long to be home again.

Come swim with me
I relive the same nightmare every night. Night after night I walk down to the shore, the pebbles crunching under my bare feet, the sound of water lapping, softly washing over me. I stand in the water, just up to my ankles and feel the cold creep up my legs, into my belly, my chest, until my whole body is covered in goose bumps and shivering. Then I hear it. A soft, almost melodious voice whispering across the water “…come….keep coming… you’re almost home…” it sounds as if it’s spoken with a smile, gentle and reassuring. It’s not a voice I recognise, buts it’s oddly familiar. It’s everywhere, but nowhere. I can’t place if it’s a man or a woman, it’s just a voice, beckoning, guiding, calling me.

All Hallows Eve
Mirrors are not just pieces of reflective glass. They are glimpses into a world unknown. A world of the dead, damned and not so dearly departed.

My Hero Academia's Pop Culture Quirk
Fiction can actively captivate people to become enthralled with the magnificent and thought-provoking worlds on display. In Japan, those who make up the “Dankai Junior” generation or the “lost decade” look to sources of pop cultural fiction as a way to escape the burden of everyday life to the point where a new gray area forms between the imaginary and reality. My Hero Academia, while relatively new, is a franchise that has made prolific headway in the Japanese popular culture market by way of its immersive world building. I believe My Hero Academia’s major success has come from fragmenting the essence of the series, mobilizing its consumers through playful engagement, and posing socio-political significance as a meaningful media mix franchise for its target audience in Japan today.

Nothing Cold Can Stay
The river boils here in the winter. Not actually, but one could be convinced by the steam it emits. The air around the river is so much colder than the water, it seems like if one were to dip their toe in, it might be cooked.

Deep breath.
I knew I needed to follow some instinct inside my Soul It was a magnet pulling me into a frequency that was new to me but I knew It was from the Lord as I knew his voice, his aura his spiritual Soul eminating lighting all the dark from all the path ahead. Water, foggy waters we are here.

The Lighthouse of Mantum
My name is Tomaine and I'm a light keeper. I tend to a lighthouse on a small remote island called Mantum. While my location is remote it is quite important to many of the major trade routes. There is always a storm going on even if it's a light one so it is always wet no matter what. Ships stop at my small harbour once every three months to bring me food and supplies. I came here after the previous light keeper Pollie mysteriously disappeared. He was assumed to be dead since it looked like the lighthouse had been raided. But a body was never found.
