Enlighten Someone

Daily

Short Stories.

If you have read through any of our other pages, you know one of the issues we are struggling with is how to best share our works, while protecting our intellectual property. Our unique works that spawned exclusively from our minds are protected by copyright laws, but technology does not make it easy to prevent sharing. The truth is, we're doing a lot of ambitious creative projects this year and we'd like to make some money at it. Short stories are going to be a great way for us to both experiment with existing technology and get readers reading.

Two Projects: Fanfic And Original Work

The short story writing we will be releasing in conjunction with Enlighten Someone Daily is comprised of two very different projects. To present our unique takes on some existing universes, we are presenting links to an ongoing body of fanfiction works.

To promote our publishing business, we're eager to share our writing. If you check out the page for Unnamed Perils Policy Claim, you'll know we have an impossible task. We're trying to sell an i.p. where we cannot talk about it because of the nature of the story. The surprise and twists are part of the experience. So, we're taking a different tack. To sell our own, unique work, we need to sell potential readers on our mind and the quality of our writing. To do that, we're sharing that which we cannot sell: fanfic! Fanfiction is an opportunity to play in other people's universes and it cannot legally be sold. It's pure artistic expression and we support that, as we support the IPs who allow artists to play in their sandboxes under the doctrine of Fair Use. So, for your enjoyment, I invite you to enjoy (free of charge):

Empty Playgrounds - Set in the Destiny 2 universe, this mood piece explores the most sensible Darkness villain in the game's universe.

Remaining Ahamkara - Just in time for The Dawning 2023, we finally wrote out our story of who Eva Levante truly is. In an exchange
with Zavala, Eva begs the Vanguard leader to reconsider allowing Guardians to aid the spirit of Riven in the Season Of The Wish.
Told with humor and references any Destiny 2 player will enjoy, we reveal who Eva Levante has been all along...

Alberto The Happy Screeb - Destiny 2 created a lot of one-shot characters with very little explanation for their abilities or
explanations for the way they behaved in-game. In Warlord's Ruin, there's a Screeb that drops an entirely different currency
than anywhere else. We treat him like an abomination and call him names. Well, that's Alberto and this is his (hilarious) story...

Zero Hour Returns!... Why? - As the Lightfall campaign was stretched on, Bungie reused assets and hoped that players would
buy the premise and just accept it. This Guardian did not. Meet the Guardian that confronts ADA-1 about how ridiculous it is
to have a simulation for the Outbreak Perfected rifle.

No Prize Inside The Box - An outing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe! Following The Avengers: Endgame, Steve Rogers is in 1952.
He knows where Bucky is. He wants to mount a rescue mission. But just because he's ready to go, does not mean he will succeed...

Henchmen - Set in the Masters Of The Universe universe, this is now a finished work (it turns out, it's novel length!) that makes adult motivations
and interpretations of the characters. There is such richness and potential in this universe that we're having fun - this is a great example of our desire
and ability to play with different narrators and really flesh-out characters. In order:

The Lesser Evil Of Compromise - Mer-Man

Scars Of The Whip - Beast Man

Magic Of The Streets - Evil-Lyn #1

Rival - Tri-Klops

Apprentice - Trap Jaw

The Trial Of Foreknowledge - Evil-Lyn #2

Infiltration Risk - Mekaneck

Tomorrow's Threat - Shadow Weaver
The Smell Of Victory - Stinkor

Horror Magic - Evil-Lyn #3
Sticky - Webstor

Revenge Fantasy - Tri-Klops & Trap Jaw
The Loneliest Child On Eternia - Evil-Lyn #4
Epilogue - After Their First Encounter With...

Marriage License - Set in the Star Wars universe, this humorous vignette is what happens when Han Solo and Leia Organa apply for a marriage license!

My New Best Friend Is Out There! - Not to toot my own horn, but this is probably the most funny thing I have ever written. Set in the Star Wars
universe, this is The Empire Strikes Back from the perspective of the plucky Imperial Probe Droid that arrives on Hoth.

Better Than Andor: A Dedra Meero Story - If you've finished watching the second season of Andor, you might be like me; disappointed in how
Major Partagaz and Dedra Meero's arc concluded. It makes no sense given how the characters were written in the first season. This little short story
seeks to reimagine Dedra's ending in a most sensible way given all that came before that final bloc of episodes.

The other project is our own intellectual property. These are completely original short stories that are intended to entertain, inform, and challenge readers.

Our Short Story Project is done... we've stopped using Google Docs because of the company's relationship with both A.I. and censorship. Our next project is the short story anthology, so we're just keeping this part up for summaries of stories in Tales From Our Current Apocalypse.

Speakeasy - Set in the United States in a world roughly 20 years after the repeal of abortion access rights, this story explores
the clever way women have found to safely circumvent the oppressive laws they find themselves living with.

Philanthropist - A clandestine meeting in Bermuda between an active-duty General in the United States military and a billionaire author...
After a lifetime of war, a General has a bold idea on how to save the lives of the women of Afghanistan following the Taliban
recapture of that nation. To succeed, he needs the aid of an unlikely source....

Rest For The Warlords - A U.S. Senator delivers a rousing speech on the Senate floor in which he compares the U.S.
reaction to the 9/11 attacks with the response to the February 2023 earthquake in Syria. We are very proud of this.

You Are Going To Have To Stop - Leslie, the owner of Leslie's Great Books!, is confronted by an irate youth over the content of
her store. She recalls working as a "problematic" author's agent years before.

Heathen Shift - The night shift is where the Christian-run Heaven's Hobbies sticks their employees that do not fit
their corporate image. So, while an atheist, a lesbian couple, a Muslim woman, a Latina, a black woman and another
woman share their nightly routine at work, of course a discussion of the Bechdel Test ensues.

You Are Free To Kill Yourself. - Seven years after a mass suicide event, the F.B.I. investigates one of its own, an agent tasked
with helping to prevent an anniversary event. Cutting between the original video posted that spurred millions of people to take their
own lives and the effort of the government to prevent another event raises serious questions about the state of the world today.

Without Question - After more than fifty years of marriage, Helena wakes up to discover her husband has an erection (it's been a while).
Then their breakfast is interrupted by a student selling candy bars. Want a geriatric child-free slice-of-life... here it is!

Hermits: A Love Story - Fifteen years into his marriage, Martin realizes that he has given his wife the life he wanted,
which was the opposite of what was most important to her. This is his epiphanic therapy session,.

Pigeon On The Road - A girl talks with another girl about a single moment that defined the character of the boy
they were both mutually attracted to. Some moments are that impactful.

Gentleman Aberrant - A vampire story like only we would write... So, it's a guy and a young woman in Arkansas having
a conversation in a bar on a Friday night. More than that is what the actual story is about, so, you know... you have to read it.

Only Begotten Daughter - Not for the feint of heart... In 2023, God's daughter, sent to Earth, returns to His heavenly realm.
This is the conversation they have upon her return. It turns out, it's not bad. Heretical, probably, but not bad.

Every Opening - Our Thanksgiving story... This one is rough. Monica awakens in her dorm room to a text message from
her cousin, a young woman a year older than her who she has never met. This starts Monica on a path to understand the (lack of a)
relationship between her mother (Janice) and the aunt she has never met. While Monica searches for the truths of her family's history,
Janice works to prevent her from learning her past.

His Own Man - Cheesy Fried Potatoes goes to get a document signed that would allow him to change his name.

No One Misses You - I stand at the portal that would allow me to return to the land of the living, conversing with
Gabriel who tells me how to manifest back on Earth. This is an existential horror piece that explores how we move on
from loss and what happens to one lost soul who does not.
