Isolation Stories

My name is Carson Jake Palmer and I am a weirdo. You might know me by one of these labels. Anorexic, Transgender, scatterbrain, a spaz, etc: If those weren't enough labels for you I also have a severe anxiety disorder and PTSD. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said "What lies behind us, and what lies ahead of us, are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." I believe, by putting my story out there, I can help people understand how my brain works, and stop ignorance. Writing helps me express my feelings in a healthy way. One day i'd like to make a difference in the world. But right now, as a high school student, My life has only just begun.

The exploration of isolating feelings together, so we feel less alone. "A quiet togetherness in the disconnect".

Princess Calista has had her engagement arranged since she was a child and now the time has come to be betrothed. The wedding is postponed when her castle is attacked by rivals from a distant kingdom. Fearing for his daughter's life, the King makes the decision to keep her locked away. A knight is assigned to have eyes on her at all times and at night he is ordered to stand outside of her bedchamber so that no one may enter. His name is Sebastian Pierce, a 24 year old with a temper. He lost everything at a young age. With no family he became a knight sworn to protect. Sebastian enjoys being one of the most feared knights in all of the kingdoms so he is far from thrilled when he finds out he is being sent to watch over a princess. He feels useless and that he is way more valuable to the guard than the position he is given. He wants nothing to do with Calista, he is just there to fulfill his duty. He is her protector but after spending so much time with her he begins to develop feelings even though she has already been promised to another man. It is forbidden for a knight to be with royalty but that doesn't stop them from engaging in a secret affair that may be more dangerous than it's worth.

In an endless, decaying labyrinth with no name and no exit, a girl wanders alone. She has forgotten who she was. She no longer remembers when she arrived. The world around her rots gently-walls peeling, ceilings sagging, rooms breathing in slow collapse-and she does not resist it. The decay feels familiar. Comforting. Like home. There are no monsters here. No voices. No salvation. Only peeling wallpaper, mold-soft floors, flickering lights, and a girl slowly dissolving into the place that has claimed her. Through fragmented diary-like chapters, her thoughts erode alongside the environment, until identity, memory, and self become indistinguishable from the ruins that surround her. Where Wallpaper Peels Like Skin is a quiet analog-horror descent into isolation, decay, and surrender-where the greatest horror is not what chases you, but what welcomes you.

2025 continues where the diary left off: out on the edge of things, where days are shaped by weather, work, family, and the quiet weight of thought. This year brings change, reflection, and persistence. Life carries on through routine jobs, long days on the land, time spent with Mum, Dad, and Eric, and moments shared with friends and neighbours. There are practical concerns - machinery, responsibility, and keeping things moving - alongside the more personal challenges of communication, understanding, and finding your place within it all. Told through honest, day-to-day diary entries, Beyond The Outer Edge - 2025 captures a year lived steadily rather than dramatically: snowstorms and seasons passing, frustrations and small victories, solitude and connection. It's a record of carrying on, learning as you go, and staying present in a life that rarely shouts, but always has something to say.

Read to learn more! *Disclaimer* This story is NOT an accurate description of History or Russia, instead its based in a fictional world that is heavily inspired by Russia, and the life of Grigori Rasputin, but does not reflect the actual events of his life or death. The places, events and time period of these events are also not in line with actual history and some places mentioned do not exist. This story is not intended to address Soviet Russia or any political concerns related to the region. It's very superficial in its relation to the culture and language. I wanted to have as much creative liberty as possible and create my OWN take on historical events through the realm of fantasy. Also, I am not from Russia, and my knowledge on their culture and language is superficial at best so you should really go to a more reputable source if you want to learn more about the interesting history of the people. To learn more about this fascinating historical figure, please do your research! Reality is sometimes even more intriguing than fiction.

Fra is shaped by self-awareness, trauma, contradicting thoughts and feelings, and by being a failed nihilist all at once. He sees the world with unforgiving clarity and retells his experiences with a disgustingly honest, almost too-confessional voice; shameful thoughts, taboo urges, the parts that make us "bad" friends, and the desires we can't shake off. Therapy was supposed to fix him, yet all it ever did was make him more painfully aware of everything wrong. He knew the causes, the patterns, the diagnoses-none of it helped. He walked into every session already knowing the answers and walked out with nothing to do with them. A mind that understands itself too well and still can't heal is its own kind of hell. Despite wanting to be numb, he isn't numb enough to stop caring-yet not hopeful enough to start living the way he, or society, insists he should. Knowing exactly what's wrong yet having no idea what to do with that knowledge is only one of the many tortures his emotional intelligence has handed him. [This story is a 1st person view based one, Fra and the author are not the same person characters Like Ivan or other ones may be based on real experiences but aren't real people and made up]
