What if, for your entire life, the world around you was all black and white? That's what life is like for Aaron, a young adult who has not yet reached Full Color... That is, until he wanders into a coffee shop and meets Olivia. 

AN: I'm horrible at summaries, but it's based off of a tumblr post I saw of your whole world being black and white until you meet your soulmate. I wrote this short story for a creative writing class. (Read the author's note at the beginning for a little more information.)

29 parts Complete

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
