Whispers of Oak & Acorn - Episode 5
A Picnic Under the Harvest Moon The harvest moon, a celestial lantern, bathed Acorn Creek in an ethereal glow. On the familiar hilltop, a patchwork quilt of memories – worn blankets spread beneath the moonlight. Elias, a boy woven from summer and silence, Sarah, his firefly-bright companion, Mama, a canvas where joy and sorrow wrestled, and Papa, a silhouette cast by regret, perched upon its warmth, hesitant smiles battling moonlit shadows.

Whispers of Oak & Acorn - Episode 6
The School Play and a Father's Applause The final curtain fell, leaving behind a silence heavier than the standing ovation that had just rocked the auditorium. Elias, bathed in the stage's fading spotlight, felt the echo of applause still tingling in his bones, yet a different kind of tremor ran through him now. It was the tremor of fear and anticipation, of standing on the precipice of something new, something he wasn't sure he was ready for.

Whispers of Oak & Acorn - Episode 4
Secrets Under the Weeping Willow The weeping willow, a silvery curtain against the bruised twilight, sighed secrets into the hushed air. Beneath its emerald eaves, Papa sat, a statue sculpted from regret and solitude. The creek mirrored his melancholic state, its glassy surface reflecting a man adrift in a sea of unspoken sorrows. Elias, a fledgling navigator on this emotional ocean, approached with measured steps, his heart carrying a fragile lantern of hope.

Whispers of Oak & Acorn - Episode 2
The Library, a Refuge of Paper Wings The library was Elias's sanctuary, a cathedral of paper wings soaring between whispering shelves. Dust motes danced in sunbeams slanting through stained-glass windows, painting the air with stories untold. Here, the echoes of his family's fractured fairy tale faded, replaced by the symphony of rustling pages and the soft hum of turning gears in the grandfather clock.

World in Tatter Ch. 19. Content Warning.
The storm raged most of the night, not letting up until the wee hours of the morning. Not long after we got to this place, I dozed off, but I couldn’t sleep for long. A couple hours at most. I woke up shivering on the floor, clothes still completely soaked through. However, when I come to, I realize Alice is no longer by my side.

The Sickening
When Dad saw the dragonling on the kitchen table, he did a double-take. I didn't think people did those in real life. Took his glasses off, cleaned them, put them back on. The whole bit. Got close, drinking in every scale. His eyes, already huge behind his glasses, looked even bigger.
