Welcome to the Cork Board! This is where I keep all the little story ideas running around my head. Most of them aren't too fleshed out, and are pretty incoherent, so excuse my amateur writing. I hope you enjoy the worlds I've created, or perhaps find comfort in seeing a character similar to yourself.
The bubble numbers represent the order in which I have created the stories; the order of sticky notes represents which ones I have most recently worked on.
summary : Jolly is in trouble. She can only think about mutilating herself beyond belief, and is haunted by relentless nightmares. At least she has concerts to look forward to. Utsuki just wants to afford to eat. He's in a band, but they're not doing so well, and he's not exactly a charmer with the ladies. Two jobs aren't cutting it, and he's dreading picking up a third. Officer Yu is tired of being called to break up bar fights at shitty venues. He's waiting for his big break, but it looks like it might never be coming. Uncle Yan is worried about Jolly. He's her only relative who lives in the city, and has noticed her acting strangely. On April 9th, he final loses contact with her. He calls the police.
characters : Jolly, Utsuki, Officer Yu, Uncle Yan
summary : The world we have been promised no longer exists. Charlie is one of the few waiting for the Whalefall - a massive astronomical meteor shower caused by the intergalactic warfare above her home planet. Some say it's the end of the world, others say this will finally give the planet the wealth it needs to really become part of the galaxy. Charlie doesn't care, as long as she can rip some cool tech from the fall. Things change when she realizes some of the corpses aren't burning in the atmosphere, and some of the corpses aren't even corpses at all.
