SHORT STORY TOURNAMENT - FINALS

THE CASK OF AMONTILLADO by Edgar Allen Poe (1846) (link) - tw: death

“I drink,” he said, “to the buried that repose around us.”

THE ONES WHO WALK AWAY FROM OMELAS by Ursula K Le Guin (1973) (link) - tw: child abuse

Do you believe? Do you accept the festival, the city, the joy? No? Then let me describe one more thing. In the basement under one of the beautiful public buildings of Omelas, there is a room. It has one locked door, and no window. ... In the room a child is sitting.

THE YELLOW WALLPAPER by Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1887) (link) - tw: depression, insanity

John is so pleased to see me improve! He laughed a little the other day, and said I seem to be flourishing in spite of my wall-paper. I turned it off with a laugh. I had no intentions of telling him it was because of the wall-paper — he would make fun of me. He might even want to take me away.

[genderless-crimes]

for the ship ask bingo: Paulkins, Jon x Martin from TMA, & Garfield x Jon? :3

Duoxowl????? In my inbox????? It's more likely than you'd think

Ty for the ask, bbg!!!

Also, I'm gonna do this a bit differently from the character ask bc I wanna put gifs this time

First up, we have the one and only

Paulkins (Paul Matthews x Emma Perkins)

the straight couple of all time. Definitely bi4bi and t4t. I love these two so much for their cringefail flirting and the way they defy fate to be together. Bonus points since their lives become so much weirder if they're apart. Bonus bonus points since their doppelgangers were so down bad for each other that they murdered half the town (Robo Emma and Paul 23 my beloved). Absolutely iconic. 14/10. My only critique of this ship is that it's led to a lot of fans only viewing Emma as an attachment to Paul when she's amazing in her own right. Still love them, my fav Hatchetfield ship

Jmart/Eyecloud (Jonathan Sims x Martin Blackwood)

FABRIC RUSTLES

I love these two so much. Ultimate enemies to lovers but they're not actually enemies. I will never be over these two. I need them to be happy. I need people to get freakier with the Eldritch elements of both of them. I need to bite bite bite bite bite bite--

16/10 love it

Finally...

Lasagna Lunch (Garfield x Jon Arbuckle)

Duo when I catch you--

Horrible ship. I don't think Jon should be a pet owner, let alone a lover. -6/10

Short stories I remember

In various english classes throughout my schooling I have read short stories that I remember to this day. Here are some in no particular order. And stories other than by Edgar Allen Poe. If I think of more I will create another list.

The Necklace by Guy de Maupassant. All I remember about this story is that this poor woman loses a rich woman's necklace and spends so much time and effort paying it back. All for the rich woman to say something like "Oh that piece of crap? It's cheap" Woman spent all that effort for nothing. I want to say I had to compare this story to an episode of The Simpsons?

The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell. The most dangerous game is hunting humans. Dude gets away and kills the other dude. Magnificent. I remember having to write my own version of the story. I made them both kids in elementary school or something.

The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Who doesn't love reading a woman going mad? I think I liked the language in this story.

The Birthmark by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Husband hates his wife's birthmark. It's an obsession. Tries so hard to get rid of it. Finally he does at the end but the birthmark is part of her or something and she dies. Nathaniel's writing style is so emotional and raw. I love it.

Sales Pitch by Phillip K. Dick. Oh man this one is quite good. Futuristic science fiction world. Can travel the stars and shit. Advertising everywhere though. Real in your face shit. A robot comes to a couples home and essentially tries to advertises itself. Won't take no for an answer. Man flies off into space at the end and tries to kill it. Doesn't work out for him.
