    [WIP STORY] In the vibrant metropolis of Aurantia City at the heart of the island territory of Palmira, a striking contrast defines the landscape, as gleaming skyscrapers and bustling markets coexist alongside shadows of economic disparity that stretch across its streets. Despite the struggles faced by half of its residents, life in the city pulsates with energy. For street-smart artist Luca and wealthy debutante Kaitlyn, their daily lives are driven by a mutual love for sports and a strong determination to excel and make a name for themselves. However, a sudden schism in Luca's neighborhood ignites a tempest of rising tensions, as whispers of discontent ripple through the community. In the midst of this upheaval, Luca, driven by an insatiable curiosity and a sense of justice, embarks on a self-imposed investigation. His path soon intertwines with Kaitlyn's, forging an unlikely alliance between two individuals shaped by very different experiences. Together, they delve into the depths of the city's underbelly, unearthing the tangled roots of a generational network of corruption that has long plagued their home. As they peel back the layers of deceit, the weight of their discovery looms heavy over them. At a pivotal crossroads, Luca and Kaitlyn must make a harrowing decision: to expose the dark truths that threaten to unravel their world or to remain silent amidst the chaos that threatens to consume them both.

    A city scorched by sun and politics. Magic folded into science. Bureaucracy wearing revolutionary masks. In this cycle of intertwined stories, characters move through eroding regimes, clandestine research, and the quiet violence of loyalty and betrayal. Gender, power, and identity blur at the edges, leaving room for irreverence, decadence, and moments of raw connection. Written in a style that balances intellectual rigor with sensual detail, this is prose for those drawn to political intrigue, queer realities, and the delicate tension between resistance and complicity. Nothing is pure. Everything matters. And sometimes, truth arrives-in capital letters.

    In the bowels of a city called Reidier, Mella makes a mistake. She loses her temper. To avoid the oncoming shit storm that results from that, she finds shelter- with the secret Incognita revolution. But their leader is missing, and tensions are high. Anything can happen. Meanwhile, far away on the east coast, the Archheir Astall attends another boring high society function. That turns out to be a bad idea. Before the night is over his parents are dead, and a coup d'état brews on the horizon. There is only one thing that might help him win back his innocence and his city- the sacred Mandate, a magical document which names the rightful heir- and that, conveniently, is locked inside a box no one has seen since his father became the Archduke of Yvette. No matter how much the six cities of Derwent wish themselves separate, they are tied together. Consequences stretch past city borders and walls. These two events were set into motion a long time ago- when a simple serving girl made a decision. Now, ancient forces are awakened, and change is coming. A Game of Thrones meets the Infernal Devices. (kind of)

    Consequences - the game in which we write a short story by passing it around a table. Each person takes it in turns to write a line. To make it more interesting, they can only see the one line before theirs. Everything else, including the opening line, is hidden until the paper is unfolded to reveal the story revealed. The prompt for this week's stories was "Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's..." In Creative Writing's take on the superhero genre, watch as our heroes take on a Ninja Turtle, a Puffin Lord, Donald Trump, a latex allergy, sentient sausages and Adam the Stranger. Jay Jay the Jet Plane is also there. And Luke still has a beak.
