Gloves Up | SmackDown Contest Entries

a short story collection for my entries to the "Gloves Up | Multi-Genre SmackDown Contest".

small chapter summaries below:
________

first chapter (qualifying): needs the TW for a lot of blood-imagery and allusions to murder and abuse (but it's kind of a love story, still).
second chapter (1.1): a fluffy sapphic meet-cute in a coffee shop where the author leans into all the romance clichés there are :D
third chapter (1.2): a sweet (?) little wild west fantasy story about badass bounty hunters.
fourth chapter (bonus 1): an entry for the prompt "steampunk" and i think it turned into the start of a rebellion?
fifth chapter (1.3): probably needs trigger warnings again, for a very unreliable narrator in the form of Nick Carraway, starring in a Great Gatsby retelling that features zombies and the yucky things that come with that.

enjoy!
