    This story involves a man named Dylan and a girl Josephine and is based on the song "The Boston States". It follows the same basic story beats but in Halo in the 2490s instead of the Revolutionary War. Dylan and Josephine make love when they're 17 but Dylan doesn't know she's pregnant. After Josephine's dad founds out about this he sends her to an original planet named Autumn, this is where a good chunk of the story takes place. Autumn is an outer colony world and is treated very poorly and its main export is Titanium A. After 2 years of working in as a welder in a shit hole known Port New Shoreham, Dylan enlists in the Marines to get away from there. Eventually Autumn rebels becoming insurrectionist and Dylan's unit is set there and the battle of New Boston(the capital) basically turns into Halo's own version of Stalingrad. They drop into the city from pelicans after ODSTs secure the LZs.During the eventual battle Dylan finds Josephine and their son, Jack. After a while Josephine convinces Dylan to keep Jack and she kills herself. Without any other option Dylan tries to send Jack back to his home planet so he can keep fighting but it turns out more difficult they he can predict.

    A short story loosely based on Wendigo myths Five teens are exiled to an island where they begin to be tormented by voices in the night. At this time I am unsure if I will expand on this. If there is enough interest I will but for now it will remain as is.

    Aarohi Kapoor was supposed to be the perfect Indian bride - red lehenga, jasmine in her hair, and a thousand expectations on her head. But just days before her big fat Desi wedding, she realizes one tiny problem: she doesn't want to get married. At least, not like this. Enter chaos: her dramatic mother, her cricket-loving father, a popcorn-munching younger sister, and a confused groom-to-be trying to keep his own mother from turning the mandap into a battleground. As Aarohi calls off her wedding (mid-mehendi), she unknowingly sets off a chain reaction: her parents' long-suppressed issues bubble up, secrets spill, and the entire Kapoor-Verma household turns into a live-action family meltdown. In the middle of love, heartbreak, and a very vocal parrot, two couples - one just beginning, one almost ending - must confront what truly makes a relationship worth saving. The Great Indian Break Up! is a hilarious, heartfelt, and gloriously chaotic rom-com about breaking the rules, breaking traditions, and sometimes... breaking up to find yourself.
