And In The End…
A story about a man who, after reaching the end of his life, finds someone waiting.
No age verification, but intermittent swearing, cranky old bastards, a Neil Gaiman reference and sporadic philosophy.

Rime
A Chicago woman’s first ski trip to Japan doesn’t quite go as expected.
Slight swearing, a bit of tasteful naughties, a lot of geography and mild horror. No age verification.

The Cave
When one day a man finds himself in a strange misty place that seems oddly familiar and, yet, entirely mysterious, he discovers his feet taking him toward a certain cave.
No age verification. Minor name-calling. Mild medical yuckies. Somewhat sad and a bit wistful.

Faces
Cedric Cooper, a computer analyst in Nova Scotia, has a monstrous time in an alley as he hurries to catch a train.
No age verification but there’s some scattered f-words and accents.

Steel Horse
A courier stops at a bar where the locals are dangerous, but another traveller is well-suited to deal with the threat.
Age verification required. Genre: Modern Horror. Trigger warnings: graphic violence, moderate profanity, moderate Roxette references.

Post-Pond Depression
Clara, recently introduced to the Doctor, has stepped out of her comfort zone.
No age verification. Pretty clean. Simple character interaction fan-fiction set at the start of The Rings of Akhaten.
