    The story begins with Fleur, a young heiress to the fortunes of her wealthy family. She spent the majority of her life in Paris, isolated from her parents who were devoted to mingling with the well to do. Fleur quickly takes after her mother, spending most of her time as a wild socialite and a well known flirt. Her father becomes concerned for her future, so he writes to his sister to take Fleur to her estate in England so Fleur can focus on her studies with a private Governess. One night, when Fleur's mother decides to announce that she is a supporter of the suffragette moment, her father sends Fleur away from her mother as a punishment for his radical wife. Fleur's story is one of personal growth and intrigue, as she is surrounded by a new, borderline ethereal world and its new, simplistically elegant people. She devotes herself to restoring her Aunt's long abandoned cottage, behind her Aunt's estate and close to a well populated village. But when Fleur and her new friends begin investigating things that were never meant for them to see, they are faced with the opportunity to change the fate of souls that were as lost as them. The opportunity to save the future, by uncovering the past.

    Consequences - the game in which we write a short story by passing it around a table. Each person takes it in turns to write a line. To make it more interesting, they can only see the one line before theirs. Everything else, including the opening line, is hidden until the paper is unfolded to reveal the story revealed. The prompt for this week's stories was "Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's..." In Creative Writing's take on the superhero genre, watch as our heroes take on a Ninja Turtle, a Puffin Lord, Donald Trump, a latex allergy, sentient sausages and Adam the Stranger. Jay Jay the Jet Plane is also there. And Luke still has a beak.

    A city scorched by sun and politics. Magic folded into science. Bureaucracy wearing revolutionary masks. In this cycle of intertwined stories, characters move through eroding regimes, clandestine research, and the quiet violence of loyalty and betrayal. Gender, power, and identity blur at the edges, leaving room for irreverence, decadence, and moments of raw connection. Written in a style that balances intellectual rigor with sensual detail, this is prose for those drawn to political intrigue, queer realities, and the delicate tension between resistance and complicity. Nothing is pure. Everything matters. And sometimes, truth arrives-in capital letters.

    [WIP STORY] In the vibrant metropolis of Aurantia City at the heart of the island territory of Palmira, a striking contrast defines the landscape, as gleaming skyscrapers and bustling markets coexist alongside shadows of economic disparity that stretch across its streets. Despite the struggles faced by half of its residents, life in the city pulsates with energy. For street-smart artist Luca and wealthy debutante Kaitlyn, their daily lives are driven by a mutual love for sports and a strong determination to excel and make a name for themselves. However, a sudden schism in Luca's neighborhood ignites a tempest of rising tensions, as whispers of discontent ripple through the community. In the midst of this upheaval, Luca, driven by an insatiable curiosity and a sense of justice, embarks on a self-imposed investigation. His path soon intertwines with Kaitlyn's, forging an unlikely alliance between two individuals shaped by very different experiences. Together, they delve into the depths of the city's underbelly, unearthing the tangled roots of a generational network of corruption that has long plagued their home. As they peel back the layers of deceit, the weight of their discovery looms heavy over them. At a pivotal crossroads, Luca and Kaitlyn must make a harrowing decision: to expose the dark truths that threaten to unravel their world or to remain silent amidst the chaos that threatens to consume them both.

    The seventeen-year old is Queen. She should be happy about that, right? She's not only married but she's married to the king. She's not only married but she's married to the king. She's got a husband who has money and power and rank. Someone she can honour and obey and give herself to. Someone who will provide for her as long as she stays in line. As long as she stayed quiet, stays submissive, stays without an opinion, stays calm and ladylike and (of course) beautiful. As long as she stays worthy of love, worthy of belonging, worthy of what he gives to her. The seventeen-year old is Queen. That means she has giant, ornate palaces, crystal chandeliers, hundreds of dresses, and a bunch of food she can't actually eat but can indeed stare at (fat women aren't attractive after all). The peasants, the people lower down on the hierarchy, don't have that. They don't have food, often, as the price of bread can soar too high for them to buy it. They don't have warmth in the winter, or medicine for when they're sick. What they do have is hard work. Hard work and calloused palms, calloused fingers, calloused feet. And her heart reaches out to them. But what does her heart know? It's not her place to have opinions. She has to be loyal. To her man. ... Unless... unless her loyalty truly belongs with someone else. Maybe the thing she has to be is brave.

    In the bowels of a city called Reidier, Mella makes a mistake. She loses her temper. To avoid the oncoming shit storm that results from that, she finds shelter- with the secret Incognita revolution. But their leader is missing, and tensions are high. Anything can happen. Meanwhile, far away on the east coast, the Archheir Astall attends another boring high society function. That turns out to be a bad idea. Before the night is over his parents are dead, and a coup d'état brews on the horizon. There is only one thing that might help him win back his innocence and his city- the sacred Mandate, a magical document which names the rightful heir- and that, conveniently, is locked inside a box no one has seen since his father became the Archduke of Yvette. No matter how much the six cities of Derwent wish themselves separate, they are tied together. Consequences stretch past city borders and walls. These two events were set into motion a long time ago- when a simple serving girl made a decision. Now, ancient forces are awakened, and change is coming. A Game of Thrones meets the Infernal Devices. (kind of)
