Beneath the Silver Moon
On a chilly fall day, a 29-year-old Liz sat in her car outside her job and wondered why she had even agreed to take a shift on her only day off. She sighed before pulling her long red hair up into a ponytail. The office building looked as cold on the outside as it did on the inside, but bills needed to be paid. She gathered her stuff, exited her car, and proceeded inside to begin her dreaded day. Mary, the secretary, waved at her in the normal cheery demeanor you'd expect from her, but Liz just smiled and ducked into her office quickly shutting the door to shut out the chaos. She sat in her office chair and stared at the list of "to-do" stuff that her boss had left on her desk. "Great", she thought before logging into her computer and checking her email. Boring, boring, and more boring, she read through the list of emails about meetings, reports, and the occasional dinner party invites that were very clearly meant for her boss and not her. She stopped on a random email from her friend. The same friend she chose to cover the day for seeing as Evie called in for a sick day. Evie never got sick so this was a first. The email read that Evie was supposed to give a small interview to Marcus Lee, this small town's version of a celebrity. His family comes from old money but Mr. Lee has formed his status through his own contracting company that handled several contracts from construction to even small jobs like babysitting. For anything you might need a verified contract for to ensure a legit job, he'd be the person to go to. He also oversaw several charities and even the local children's center. For anyone, he'd be a dream to talk to, but Liz was dreading it. She wasn't known for getting along too well with Marcus. A bitter grudge from when she was 18 that never really got resolved with a boy who she once thought hung the moon. The boy who told her to get lost on their last day of high school despite them being best friends. The boy who broke her heart. What was she going to do???

A Minister And His Daemon. Content Warning.
The Minister of Fears was tired. Sitting comfortably atop the Great-Grey-Tower, he was lost in thoughts, his mind stirring around the few passages of his life he remembered clearly. Dressed in his official crimson dress, Jeoffrey the second sighed in relief and threw away his white wig, down the tower, the colorless lump of artificial hair catching the heavy winds and morphing in yet another apparition; a freed, ghoul-like bird, flapping its absurd locks of hair, at one with the gusts of air.
