Apollo, a robot companion made for nothing more than to encourage exploration to the young, awakens to a world devoid of life. No human is seen to walk the streets, nor are there birds flying above in the sky, or even insects crawling on the ground. Embark on his journey as Apollo tries to piece together his surroundings, wondering what has happened to the world, where the people had disappeared to, or where that noise came from...

After Blue Light
What happened at last year's farewell party? No one talks about it - and Aarav never answers. Once known for his quiet charm and perfect grades, Aarav now moves through the halls like a ghost. The laughter of his classmates feels distant, the world a little heavier. He doesn't believe in love, friendship, or promises anymore - just the passing of days. Then, one morning, the sky turns blue. Not the peaceful kind - the kind that hums, flickers, and burns. Within hours, the city collapses into chaos. Students are trapped inside the school as explosions echo across the horizon. Panic replaces order. Survival replaces kindness. And through it all, Aarav finds himself surrounded by people he once ignored - each breaking in their own way. As fear spreads and loyalties shatter, the question echoes louder than ever: What really happened that night? And what will become of those who live through the blue light?Concluida
Baylo: The Cosmic Dog
CHAPTERS RELEASE EVERY TUESDAY! Baylo was just a loyal golden retriever, living a quiet life on the moon colony-until a surge of cosmic power changed everything. Suddenly, he's more than a pet; he's a force unlike anything the colony has seen. Alongside Ellio, the boy who has always been his closest friend, Baylo begins to uncover secrets buried deep within the colony's walls. Strange occurrences, hidden experiments, and a shadowy threat loom around every corner. For Baylo, courage, loyalty, and instincts will be tested like never before-and the fate of the home he loves may rest in his paws. ___________________________________________________________________ Preview: The pink sunset over the moon colony was silent. Its light beamed through the artificial atmosphere, soft and alien, casting a rose-hued tint across the glass domes and skeletal infrastructure. The colony itself was built around three immense dome structures, each one housing a different facet of survival-agriculture, research, habitation-all dwarfed by a single tower that rose above them like a needle through fabric. It watched over everything, unmoving, unblinking. The buildings-sleek, metallic, utilitarian-sat beneath the tower's shadow. Nothing moved with urgency. No birds. No wind. Only the hollow hum of recycled air and the distant hissing of pressure locks opening and closing. Inside the domes, colonists moved like clockwork. Farmers in soil labs adjusted nutrient tubes to the roots of synthetic crops. Engineers ran diagnostics on life-support units. Researchers stared into data displays, their faces washed in ghost-blue light. All of them were quiet. All of them were tired. No one laughed anymore. No one talked about their home world anymore. But even if no one said it, the grief clung to everything-the way people avoided eye contact, the hollow way they said "Good morning," and the way every hallway echoed too much, like the colony itself had grown too big for the shrunken souls inside.

the kind that's never done
Steve understands that he's an overthinker. he likes to say that it's part of his persona.
