Plot Twist
End of Man Chapter 2 - James
Chapter 2: James The raucous laughter and banter coming from the other passengers in the car belied the anxiety that James felt. There were four in total, including himself, riding in the gaudy red sports car they had boosted from a parking garage earlier that day. In an attempt to quell the anxiety tumbling around in his stomach, James tried to catch what was coming through the radio. It was difficult given that he was in the back seat and had to try to catch what was being said through the other's boisterousness.

“The Room with No Name”
She walked into the room like a question begging to be answered. Barefoot, half-robed, skin tasting of lavender and doubt. Her name was Elizabeth — soft lips, storm eyes, and a tension in her step that betrayed everything she tried to hide.

Journal Entry #1 Seven Stupid Silent Days I don’t know what I’m doing. I’ve never written things down before. Not like this. Maybe a couple old passwords or something, but never this. I thought it might help. Help me stay strong, help me find her, help me with something… anything. I’m struggling. My moms been gone for seven days — seven stupid, silent days. The one person I always turned to for everything just vanished, and I have no clue what to do about it.

Dead Man's Playlist: Chapter 7. Content Warning.
The city looked different coming back. Not bigger or smaller. Just...duller. Like someone had turned the saturation down on everything. The neon signs she used to find charming buzzed too loud. The sidewalks felt sticky. Everything smelled like bus brakes and too many people pretending to be somewhere else.

Dead Man's Playlist: Chapter 6
The next morning was thick with fog. Junie stood on the porch, blanket over her shoulders, coffee in hand, and watched the trees disappear into soft gray nothing. The lake was a pale blur. The birds were quiet, and even the wind seemed cautious. She hadn't played a record yet. She hadn't written in her journal either.

Songs of the Silver Wizard
COMPENDIUM “The thing about dangerous friends is that they are dangerous, even if they are your friends.” Flames licked the air, dancing like tendrils of smoke that still carried the warmth of the fire. Thaddeus slammed his staff into the ground, and the courtyard shuddered as the wall of water met the unholy bonfire.

St. Ebrius
“Hi, Jordan.” It was early in the morning, so he knew that it could be a hallucination. It was all in his head as he turned in the dumpster and opened his eyes. Jordan Radasso had been living there for the last four years after losing his apartment, being banned from the shelters and kicked out of an abandoned restaurant (kicked out? Those kids chased him out for fun). The dumpster was in a fairly quiet alley. Garbage trucks rarely passed there after the restaurants shut down and the government put in another marijuana shop. The people who still wanted to walk on the main street were tourists and they always had a lot of spare change. The only difficulty was the food bank that was five blocks away (always crowded on weekends and after 1 pm) and the weather. The cold had come in and he felt the pinpricks in his feet first; the layers kept most of his blood flowing. And today would be another trip out to see if he could beat the crowds, and keep the heat in his body moving.
