♫ 01 word war - finley - 203 words - win/loss ♫
we squeezed into the metal compartment on the world's craziest new heist. we had to steal the king's red ruby before midnight, and as i checked my watch, panic rose up beneath me. we had half an hour until then. the stars shimmered in the sky, and i quickly sucked in a breath as it went dark as we went into the box. “is now a bad time to tell you that i'm claustrophobic?” i gasped, pushing passed my partner nervously. the rest of the mission was going to be in this little tunnel, and i already felt my lungs burning as my arms brushed up against the walls of the tunnel. i desperately needed more space, and i rushed through the tunnel in hopes of finding some sort of opening where i could breathe again, completely abandon the plan. oh was I going to be in trouble for this. the ruby was never going to be stolen, at least not by us, and as soon as i got out of here i would be running to the next country before anyone had the chance to find me, especially my partner, who i'm sure was furious with my little journey to find air

A Day in the Life of Hermes
As usual, I am currently very busy.
It can be exhausting sometimes, being a god. Even a god can get tired of their job after they’ve done it for enough time.
My job is to deliver messages, as I’m the gods’ messenger. Today is no different, except for one thing…
“Are you zoning out again?” George sighs. He slithers up the caduceus. “I want a rat.”
I focus my eyes on the paper. I’m trying not to respond, since I’m too busy to answer him right now.
“Shh,” Martha scolds him. “Can’t you see he’s busy? Give him some space.”
“But I want a rat,” he complains. “I’m so hungry right now. What happened to Percy? I’m sure he will get me a rat.”
I grit my teeth. “Percy is on a quest,” I reply. “And both of you have to be silent for the next few minutes. I have a job to do.”
“You’re always so busy,” George grumbles. “Like, what are you doing right now? What’s so important?”
“Hermes told us to be quiet,” Martha says. “Though, you have a point,” she adds.
“See, even Martha agrees with me now.” George looks up at me from the caduceus. “What are you doing, Hermes?”
“I’m delivering a message,” I say. Finally I look at the two of them, George and Martha, the snakes.
I point my finger at them and they instantly turn into pen and notepad.
I like my snakes. Sometimes. But today they are being especially annoying. Plus I have something to do.
I take the pen and glance at the words scribbled onto the paper.
Only three words.
My brow furrows.
I make both the pen and notepad turn back into George and Martha.
They raise their heads to look at me, both of them faintly disgruntled.
George speaks first. “Why did you do that to us? I never thought you’d do that without telling us.”
“Right.” Martha flicks her tongue at him. “George was being very annoying about it. He hates being the notepad.”
I interrupt the two snakes quickly. “Okay. We have something to do.”
George mumbles under his breath.
“We need to go find Percy,” I say seriously. “Right now.”

Event 1
Ayla always had been a huge bug fan. She had several books about them, and staring at the bugs (her favorites being ants and spiders) that lived around her house or yard was one of her favorite hobbies. One day, when she was 13 years old, she was looking at some bugs in the woods (she had recently found some very fabulous ants and ant hills), looking for some spiders, and then she saw a weird looking one, mostly dark colored with bright colored (almost neon) bits. She took out her phone to take picture of it, or maybe look up what kind of spider it was, but when she looked back down at the grassy ground, it was gone. “Aw, dang.” She muttered, putting her phone back in her pocket, a tiny bit sad that she didn’t get a chance to take a picture of it or anything. Then she looked down, and found the spider on her leg. “Oh, hello, little spider!” She said to the spider, looking down at it and smiling. “Please get off my leg, little spider.” Ayla said, carefully picking up the spider with her fingers, and then she felt a tiny pinch, “Huh?” She set down the spider and looked at her hand. A small bump like a mosquito bite was there. “That’s weird…” As she stood up and began walking away, her phone suddenly slipped out of her pocket. “Ack!” She tried to grab it, and out shot… webs? Webs seemed to have shot out from her hand and caught her phone. “Whoa… I wonder what else I can do with these?” She wondered aloud, looking down at the webs that hung from her hand. In the days that followed, she figured out how to fly (via ballooning) and the fact that she was now very good at jumping.

155 words, for illu-fi (incomplete)
There’s an intricate web
Of everything we do here and then
Threads and our little incidents, they soon intertwine
Illustrated in a universe that’s entirely our design
The view is illusionary, you won’t want close your eyes
Since when you know it too well, it’s no surprise
Illu-Fi
It’s not a place to pass by
Illu-Fi
There’s a how and a why
Spiders, you can find them even if they disappear
Colliding with others, we’re all friends here
Dimensional and reeling, we set a quick pace
There’s not one villain we cannot chase
It’s not illusionary, don’t ever close your eyes
Crimes and goodbyes, a past we can define
Even if you’re standing by yourself, you’re never alone
When you are in
Illu-Fi
It’s your place in time
Illu-Fi
A lovely way to make some new rhymes
We are
Illu-Fi
Writing with fervor and webs from our wrists
We are
Illu-Fi
Come swing on by!

Word war. Accidentally channeled my inner romantic for this one. I hope this is allowed?
-
Beautiful.
He was soul-crushingly beautiful. Devastating in a way that mere words almost failed to capture. He tilted her chin up with the soft, curved knuckles of his hand, warm peach skin against hers, forcing her eyes to meet his dark ones. Piercing her gaze with its intensity.
And yet…….while she burned with the fiery need to get closer, deeper within those breathtaking eyes was….absolutely nothing. An emptiness like the void itself. Swallowing her expression whole but not reflecting anything back. There was no glint that she knew could be there, no telltale quirk of his perfectly curved lips. No light. Just darkness stretching eternal. Ever part of her sparked with a primal sort of want. It danced across her skin, along her bones, thudding against her ribcage like a million tiny heartbeats. She shivered with it and leaned closer into him. There was no spark in the way he moved closer to her in turn. It was practiced. confident, in a mechanical, almost robotic way. He looped his other arm around her lower back. Pressed the palm of his hand against her spine. More sparks. Her breathing turned heavy. His stayed steady and sure. Subconsciously, she began to count every breath taken between the two of them in such a small space. Every faint movement of his chest, the rhythm of it in tandem with the slow, lazy taps the pad of his finger began to make down her spine.
"Bi.…“ He breathed out only the first syllable of her name in a way that didn't shatter the silence but rather teased its borders, letting it occupy the space alongside them. ”…Some friends of mine are coming over soon. Could you make yourself scarce for just a little while?"
That did it. Suddenly the sparks burst across her vision and fizzled out to nothing but a dizzying sort of shock. The spell was broken and she was left still and cold, staring, stunned, up at the man she thought she could let herself love.

Word War w/ Strawberry-Lemon
I wanted to write tangled the series fanfic so have some very out of character something that I didn't know what to do with but at least it's something!
Cassandra flung her sword at the stone walls. Around them, the aforementioned stone walls closed in, creaking and grinding from disuse as they slowly reduced the space around them. In just a few minutes, they would be completely crushed, just the dust of their bones would remain.
The sword did absolutely nothing. Cassandra, just now registering Rapunzel’s question, turned to the younger woman, shocked.
“Yes, it is.”
“Sorry,” she had the grace to say, looking abashed, “it’s just that it almost reminds me of-”
“I know!” Cass almost felt sorry for cutting her off, but time was of the essence and they couldn’t just sit around discussing claustrophobia when they were about to freaking die.
“So come help me!”
“Right!” Raps’ voice shook.
She then proceeded to do absolutely nothing, even as Cass pushed at the wall in vain. The space left was no bigger than a closet now. Maybe thirty seconds until they were dead.
“DO SOMETHING!”
She’d have to apologize later, something she hated to do, or talk about any of this at all but they were going to die and
“Haven’t you done this

prompt - “One thousand and one eyelashes blown, two thousand and twenty-one more to go” 242 words
I’ve never considered myself particularly superstitious. I don’t flinch at the sight of a black cat slinking in front of me, or card through patches of clover in hopes of finding one with four leaves instead of three. But there’s always been a single exception. Every time an eyelash has fallen to rest on my cheek or waterline, I’ve scooped it onto my forefinger- rolling it under my thumb, mascara staining my skin- and blown it away, wishing for the same thing every time. Love. The kind of love I read about in books, daydreamed about while listening to music. The kind that lives on-screen, where they’d learn French for me like Cameron, or read the whole Bible in a single night like Dave. Where I’d receive as much as I yearned to give. When I was one thousand and one eyelashes down, I met a boy. He made me feel special, seen- as though I never needed to wish again because “the one”, as they say, was right in front of me. After five days spent laughing like we were best friends, and five sleepless nights spent thinking about what we could become, I blew a dampened eyelash into the evening breeze. He wasn’t the one, and I feared it would take more than two thousand and twenty one lashes for me to find someone like him again. Someone who would stay. For now, though, all I could do was wish.
for anyone reading this wondering if it is about me! i don't do this. though it is inspired by recent events and i am a hopeless romantic, this boy was not worth it and i just kind of flick off my lashes usually. fun little trivia that everyone was definitely looking for.

We were climbing up the tall mountain and I really couldn't tell what was going on. It seemed like an endless walk and I was so tired. My hands were trembling as I clutched onto my hiking guide, yet my friend still had the energy to continue sprinting. “Aren't you coming Lianna?” she called while vanishing into the brush ahead. I didn't really see her after that because that is when it happened.
The incident. Although I was extremely tired, I didn't want to be left alone on this weird and creepy island. So, I ran. I ran for miles trying to keep up but my legs were starting to give way. That is when I noticed some beautiful folliage scattered on the ground. I ran towards it and suddenly, *boom*..I fell down the what seemed like a hole and the walls started to close in. I screamed- but

(disclaimer- not edited :sobs
Sometimes I wonder what it would like to live on a tree. Be a mango. On even a fruit? It seems kind of cool if you come to think about it. What color would I be, what would I taste like - sweet or sour! Maybe something in between… whatever it is, I know that I'd be amazing. Sitting in my class learning about who knows what, I start dreaming off into my own world. It was my little escape from reality.
I was able to think my own thoughts, dream my own things, and most of all., design my owns worlds without the influence or opinion of others. I loved just being able to type my heart out without havign to come back and correct things. It was really nice to just write away in just a few minutes and simply just stay here I was still, stressing away.
In my magical world I would create stories. Storeis where evry day objects (or even fruits in this case I guess) would come to life and take some sort of form. What they actually were remain unknown to me but I knew that I wanted to come up with something that the world had never see before. A mango. Yes, that's exatly what I needed to make this magic real. So, I dreamt it up and brought it to life. it was like no other, I will tell you. it was just a very very very cool red orange green mango with a huge purple spot symbolizing wealth! ont top of that, it had enormous black sunglasses that gave it the ability to talk! how shocki

My anthem writing daily to mess with my cabin enemies. I woke up extra early to start this and just finished one of them!
Some of them are so good, I might even have some of my music pals preform it with me later! So stay tuned for that!
Since the links I’ve used in previous years to share my works were recently blocked by the ST, I guess I have no choice but to upload my documents as screenshots now! Sorry about that!
This one is about the cabin members from journalism raiding Area 51… for a scoop!


The next one I made is for fan-fi and I made an actual song for (I did use some computer voice synthesis for the singers, but rest assured, the lyrics and basic intro melody parts are entirely by me.) it can be found here at:
https://youtu.be/JiNN29hkqas
Last, but not least, we have this one for fantasy:

Progress 3 of 3 anthems completed! Done!

Part 1:
“Legend has it that the land of Eudaemonia was founded in the period of the ‘Greek civilisation’ - going by Underworld terms. Legend has it also that Androkles, the great Founder of the glorious land of Eudaemonia, was then only a hundred years old. If this age is not at all impressive in our world, then in the Underworld, Humans rarely ever reached half of that. Our Founder was congratulated and praised for his health and old age, he was regarded as the wisest man in the whole of the Greek Empire in the Underworld. Yet he was also regarded as strange and unusual. It appeared that Humans /feel/ more than Eudaemonians do - they possess some strange kind of blood in their heart that sometimes makes them express themselves with high-pitched squeals, grunts, or even stranger more, makes the water in their eyes overflow. Androkles, of course, did not show any sign of this weird behaviour, and for the Humans he was living with, this was a very strange phenomena. The Humans used words such as ‘expressionless’ and ‘unfeeling’ to describe our Founder.
Years passed by still and when the Great Androkles' health showed no sign of declining, Humans began to feel that something wasn't right. Rumours began spreading in the Underworld, some claiming that Androkles was one of these gods the Humans believed, that he had come from Olympus upon the mortals - and that he was /immortal/.
Androkles, who at that time did not know of his true identity, thought upon this word carefully. Immortal. His old age meant that he was different from the others. Years passed until he began to think that he might be from a different species - he had never believed himself a god and despite trying to recollect some blurry memories, he was convinced from a strange kind of feeling that his hometown was not Mt. Olympus.
At two hundred years old, Androkles was still as agile and strong as he had ever been. On this very day five thousand years ago, the Founder decided to leave the Underworld, for he began getting visions during the night about another realm, the world he truly belonged in. An unknown power guided our Founder, until he climbed to the very top of the highest mountain in the Underworld. There, a chariot was waiting for him. Still guided by this unknown power, he mounted it, and it carried him right to the vast field that would become the Eudaemonia we know today.
And with that, I declare to all Eudaemonians, the official five thousandth anniversary of our well-beloved land!”
(written
(433 words)
Part 2:



Part 3:
The Eudaemonians, as they have mentioned ourselves in their five thousandth anniversary speech, are actually descendants of the ancient Greek people. They believe themselves of a separate species, but scientific research has proved the opposite. The first of the Eudaemonians, Androkles, was an entirely normal human being. In fact, his old age was the result of a mutated gene, so was his lack of emotions. It so happened in a strange coincidence that his wife, with whom he had many children and who populated with /their/ children the world of Eudaemonia, also had the same mutated genes as the Founder had. As for how they discovered a whole new realm parallel to our world, we currently do not have any indications of that, so it remain a mystery for now.
According to some research and inspectation, the Eudaemonians' technological progress is nowhere near the one we are living. They do not have computers or even the machinery that was invented during the Industrial Revolution in the eighteenth century. As they were descended from the Greek civilisation, their living environment and society is still built around that model. However, five thousand years is a long time, and from the begin of their world they would probably have developed some kind of ‘technology’, as we may call it, more or less. Our researchers have asked themselves that question in the past decade, and we are now ready to officially announce the grand reveal of the long researches about the beta-humans, as we call Eudaemonians.
It turns out that they too, have been curious about their past. Our researches show that they are conscious that they come from the ancient greek civilisation from what they call the ‘Underworld’, which is our Earth. However, what they do not know is what exactly was it that made their Founder able to discover and reveal a whole new realm and establish the Eudaemonian civilisation there. For us also, this remains a mystery. As we know, these
Eudaemonians have a mutated gene that does not allow them to feel emotions as we do. However, a mutated gene can still mutate, and our researchers have discovered that about two hundred years ago, a Eudaemonian had possessed the power to feel curiosity. Because of this person's difference, they got elected as president and led many researches to try and find the place that would link them to the Earth. They had tales and stories about the portal, but there was no concrete evidence to where the portal actually was.
They began searching their land, inch by inch, for any trace of a portal that would lead them to the Earth, the one from which their Founder first came upon Eudaemonia. Their government roused up the population and offered a large amount of compensation for anyone who would take part in the search. It was, at first, in vain. Though many Eudaemonians were interested for the compensation, their population was not enough to cover the entire land.
It was only after the invention of a useful tool that they did indeed discover the portal - which allowed us to communicate with them and investigate research in their land. Here is the story of this invention.
He was a young man in his early thirties - he had just reached his adulthood. Though he did not feel any more emotions than any other Eudaemonian, he was wild and thrived adventures. He often spent days upon riverbanks, and it was during one of those days that he made the discovery.
He found a sticky substance in the riverbed while fishing, some sort of silvery mud. While mixing it with a special stone powder just for fun, he discovered that the new combination glowed faintly red under the light of their sun, and as it was unheard before, he quickly brought it to the philosophers and scientists of Eudaemonia. These people discovered that it was a kind of metal that would change colours depending on the environment it was in. After a while they also discovered that the reddish light's brightness would alter ever so slightly whenever it approached the western wing of the realm, the light would dim. The most curious president went to the river and brought forth a bowl of this mixture for every citizen. Soon enough, all the Eudaemonians were led to the far west of Eudaemonia. Seeing this as a divine sign, they examined the area with meticulous attention. Indeed, not long after, they found a place where a queer, yellowish light was seen. They discovered, of course, that this was the portal.

Part 4:
As soon as the portal to the Underworld was discovered, all Eaudaemonians were roused from their normal jobs to take part in the viggest and grandest adventure Eudaemonia has ever seen.
Farmers were asked for their techniques of taming the earth to try and find a way through the portal, philosophers were asked to come up with ideas of what the portal might be like and why it would hide itself from us, architects were sent to study the portal and how we might open it.
There was even a period when people were on the brim of starvation because of the lack of farmers, when houses were decaying because the architects had been sent away. Despite this, the president of Eudaemonia continued. He mentioned and justified his actions by claiming that he felt something different from there lot of us, something that only the Humans of the Underworld felt. It was bamed, curiousity. At first we didn't believe him, but after a while we were obliged to notice that he was indeed different from us.
Therefore, we followed him without complaint, surviving through the droughts and famines.
At last, our endless researches reached an end. The philosophers had imagined a way of piercing the portal, and the architects had put the plan into execution. The result was not what we had imagined. Now, in the place of a pirtal, we had a hole. An enormous hole in the ground, an endless whole from which a fierce and bright light shown through. When we stared into it, we could see nothing but blinding light. We did not know where this whole led, nor was anyone brave enough to venture into it. This time, the president could not ask a citizen to go explore this unknown hole for the same of sacrificing his curiosity. To our relief we thought this enterprise was coming to an end, but we were wrong.
The president would not let any of his subjects enter the hole, so on a day we still remember until now, he announced that he would be stepping down as president. At first we were shocked. Though he was different, even a little absurd in our opinion, we loved him for his peculiarity and did not understand why he wanted to step down. Some made assumptions that it was because of family problems, others said that he was beginning to get old and read tiered of his duties as president.
None of this was true, for a few hours after his resignation he was seen at the portal that was now an endless hole. He was waiting patiently on the edge of it, AMD in no time, after hearing the news, all citizens arrived to witness this grand event. Some claimed it dangerous- it indeed was - and tried to convince our former president to not leave us and attempt this dangerous move. Though ue was moved - a small tear slid down his cheek- he said no, this is the one chance to rediscover the place we originated from and connect with the humans that live there.
He left no time for teary goodbyes - he had made his decision ever since the day the hole was opened.
And with cries of horror from the citizens surrounding our beloved president, he jumped.
I was then a little boy.
It is now two hundred years later from the event and we have not seen him from then.
As I write, there's an urgent knock on the door. I see people hurrying out of their houses, and my first thought is that something terrible has happened. But as I inspect closer, I see a look on their cafaces that tell me otherwise. It was hope.
Ever since the oresident jumped, Eudaemonia has not met another happy day. The government is weak compared to the former president's curious person, people are scared for the fate of the president, and bot a singke day has passed without prayers.
The knock sounded again at the door. I quickly went out of my room. It was the neighbour.
“Quick, Alexander, quick, come! They say the president has returned!”
I frowned upon hearing those words. Was this some ill intended rumour? I followed my friend nonetheless. We ran, or walked as fast as we could in the large crowd of citizens, to the hole. It was, of course, still there.
However, right behind it, was a humongous mass, similar to an enormous rock, except polished and more beautiful and slender. We later learnt thst it was called a spaceship.
Even more was our surprise when our president, now with snowy white hair and dressed with strange clothes, walked out of it, arms wide open and smiling. After a moment's recovery from the astonishment, we all hurried towards him and embraced him with love. He laughed and looked happier than ever. Over the cries of joy, he said, “I am pleased to introduce to you, my dear citizens, the Humabs of the Eartch, also known as the Underworld!”
And out of the spaceship, four strangely dressed humanoid shapes stepped out.

Weekly 1
Part 1:
“Legend has it that the land of Eudaemonia was founded in the period of the ‘Greek civilisation’ - going by Underworld terms. Legend has it also that Androkles, the great Founder of the glorious land of Eudaemonia, was then only a hundred years old. If this age is not at all impressive in our world, then in the Underworld, Humans rarely ever reached half of that. Our Founder was congratulated and praised for his health and old age, he was regarded as the wisest man in the whole of the Greek Empire in the Underworld. Yet he was also regarded as strange and unusual. It appeared that Humans /feel/ more than Eudaemonians do - they possess some strange kind of blood in their heart that sometimes makes them express themselves with high-pitched squeals, grunts, or even stranger more, makes the water in their eyes overflow. Androkles, of course, did not show any sign of this weird behaviour, and for the Humans he was living with, this was a very strange phenomena. The Humans used words such as ‘expressionless’ and ‘unfeeling’ to describe our Founder.
Years passed by still and when the Great Androkles' health showed no sign of declining, Humans began to feel that something wasn't right. Rumours began spreading in the Underworld, some claiming that Androkles was one of these gods the Humans believed, that he had come from Olympus upon the mortals - and that he was /immortal/.
Androkles, who at that time did not know of his true identity, thought upon this word carefully. Immortal. His old age meant that he was different from the others. Years passed until he began to think that he might be from a different species - he had never believed himself a god and despite trying to recollect some blurry memories, he was convinced from a strange kind of feeling that his hometown was not Mt. Olympus.
At two hundred years old, Androkles was still as agile and strong as he had ever been. On this very day five thousand years ago, the Founder decided to leave the Underworld, for he began getting visions during the night about another realm, the world he truly belonged in. An unknown power guided our Founder, until he climbed to the very top of the highest mountain in the Underworld. There, a chariot was waiting for him. Still guided by this unknown power, he mounted it, and it carried him right to the vast field that would become the Eudaemonia we know today.
And with that, I declare to all Eudaemonians, the official five thousandth anniversary of our well-beloved land!”

Katie was pretty sure that the extra two thousand and twenty-one eyelashes she had lost as a child and stored in a jar weren't going to make any more difference than the one thousand and one eyelashes already blown, because Jake still wasn't looking at her. As always, he was looking at the dumb blonde sitting next to him. What was her name again? Katie was pretty sure it started with a F or something. Like a Freeda or a Frankie. In Katie's personal opinion, Katie was a much less grandma sounding name than Frankie. Who names their child Frankie and expects them to just go ahead like that? Then again, the grandmas with the actual name Frankie must have been children too. If the current 17 year old Frankie would have been 70 instead, Katie wouldn't have batted an eye. Suddenly, she felt very sorry for all the Gertrudes out there.
No no, she wans't sorry for THIS Frankie. This Frankie was a devil. This Frankie was a demon spawn. This Frankie was sent straight from the depths of Tartarus to mess with her one chance with her seven year crush. Obviously, the only year she had gotten him in her class timetable, he was sat next to this prettier, shorter, cuter, dumber blonde girl who was stuck to him like glue.

Let’s do this one more time
From the top, two, three, four!
Hey, hey you! The collider’s broken and-
Woah, oh, woah,
It looks like we’ve got so many spider-people here!
Does anyone know what happened?
All I remember was a loud explosion and then-
Bang! We’re in the same dimension-
(An interdimensional rift!)
Oh, woah, oh, woah
Anyone know how we can get back home?
(Find the collider parts!)
(Good luck, heroes!)
Let’s do this one more time
From the top, two, three, four!
It looks like we’re stuck in this dimension together
Woah, oh, woah
And no-one knows the way back home
Does anyone have any ideas?
(We need to fix the collider, right?)
Woah, oh, woah-
It looks like we’ve only got a month!
(What? What do you mean?)
A month before this thing tears the whole spider-verse apart
So we’ve got to find the collider parts!
(Good luck, heroes!)
Adventure - 150 words
Crash.
Bang.
Boom.
We’re stranded in the mountains
With no hope of rescue
How’re we going to get out of here?
(Follow me!)
We’re trekking through the snow and trying to make sure
None of us die on the side of this mountain!
(I mean, there are ten thousand ways this mountain might try to kill us-)
Stay close!
Follow your leaders!
And hopefully
This adventurous expedition won’t end in an absolute disaster
(Not that it already is one)
So grab your backpacks
And let’s get moving!
Time is running out, we don’t have a lot of food on us
We’ll need to find someone to rescue us
Before it’s too late and we’re…
(Dead? That’s kinda morbid.)
(Uh- yeah-)
So it’s time we adventured
Across the mountains
Time to find out if we can make it out alive, woah-oh!
(It’s not really considered adventuring if we’re stranded, right?)

Dystopian - 160
All is not as it seems
Everything on the surface is covering up for something deep
Perfaith City is a dangerous perfect
So join the rebellion!
We’re fighting for what’s right!
Let’s look at the records, maybe we’ll uncover what is wrong with this place!
We know it’s a dangerous perfect
Where Missing is “Recovery”
History forgets, silencing the revolution
We’re all just playing in a paradise
Where nothing is as it seems
So my dear friends, take up your arms
And fight for a world that’s good and right
Where we can strive for freedom
It’s time to escape from this dangerous perfect
It’s time to announce the revolution
It’s time to break free from our paradise
Perfaith City will crumble and fall
No longer will missing be recovery
No longer will history silence the revolution
No longer will we be playing in a paradise
Expecting justice while dreams all die
It’s time we escaped from this dangerous perfect!

Let’s do this one more time
From the top, two, three, four!
Hey, hey you! The collider’s broken and-
Woah, oh, woah,
It looks like we’ve got so many spider-people here!
Does anyone know what happened?
All I remember was a loud explosion and then-
Bang! We’re in the same dimension-
(An interdimensional rift!)
Oh, woah, oh, woah
Anyone know how we can get back home?
(Find the collider parts!)
(Good luck, heroes!)
Let’s do this one more time
From the top, two, three, four!
It looks like we’re stuck in this dimension together
Woah, oh, woah
And no-one knows the way back home
Does anyone have any ideas?
(We need to fix the collider, right?)
Woah, oh, woah-
It looks like we’ve only got a month!
(What? What do you mean?)
A month before this thing tears the whole spider-verse apart
So we’ve got to find the collider parts!
(Good luck, heroes!)
Adventure - 150 words
Crash.
Bang.
Boom.
We’re stranded in the mountains
With no hope of rescue
How’re we going to get out of here?
(Follow me!)
We’re trekking through the snow and trying to make sure
None of us die on the side of this mountain!
(I mean, there are ten thousand ways this mountain might try to kill us-)
Stay close!
Follow your leaders!
And hopefully
This adventurous expedition won’t end in an absolute disaster
(Not that it already is one)
So grab your backpacks
And let’s get moving!
Time is running out, we don’t have a lot of food on us
We’ll need to find someone to rescue us
Before it’s too late and we’re…
(Dead? That’s kinda morbid.)
(Uh- yeah-)
So it’s time we adventured
Across the mountains
Time to find out if we can make it out alive, woah-oh!
(It’s not really considered adventuring if we’re stranded, right?)

SWC Weekly 1
About The Post
- points worth: 2000 points
- part 1 words: 356
- part 3 words: 530
- part 4 words: 919
- reason: weekly 1
Part 1
The Aerals were a people. A community. Their homes floated in the sky, above the clouds. Anemone gazed at the colorful sunset just above the clouds. Her feet dangled off the stone platform.
Long ago, when the oceans had flooded, a small group of people had looked to the sky and said “this is where our home will lie.” Her grandfather had been one of them. He had dedicated his life to building their paradise. The Aerals didn’t have an official belief or God, but Anemone's mom had told her stories when she was younger about a perfect man who had sacrificed his life for the world. That man must've been brave, Anemone thought.
Three generations had already lived in the sky, or as the Aerals called it, “Up Above”. They had found ways to gather water, breed animals, and plant various foods. Anemone’s favorite place was the water elevator. Using suction, water would be forced up metal tubes that reached down towards the ocean. When possible, they would reuse the water
Life was perfect Up Above. Anemone was halfway through school, meaning after that she’d be able to do whatever she wanted with her life. She had decided that just like her parents, she wanted to explore the Down Below. When she was a young age, her parents had disappeared in the night to explore below and see if they could find other civilizations or land. The council had forbidden this, since they had lost so many people Down Below.
But, Anemone was determined to explore. She checked the time and realized it was almost bedtime, so she sprinted back to her cottage. In the morning, she’d daydream more about exploring the depths of the ocean. And land, if there was any left.
Years later, Anemone finished her school. Tomorrow was the day she’d sail out into the unknown. Using the old rope and staircase leading to a small platform on the ocean. She packed her bags and took one last look around her childhood bedroom, her home that she had always known. And, she slept in her warm bed for the very last time.
Part 2 see project here
Part 3
Anemone snuck out through the window of her cottage, and crept past the guards stationed around Up Above. They were taking a light snooze. Those guards had been picked because of their excellent hearing, so she had to be extra careful.
Suddenly, she heard a noise. Someone was coming! She found a barrel to hide behind. A voice that sounded like a man started speaking.
“Aeolus, we need to keep the third tube closed. The Council said so.”
“They’d never notice,” a second male voice said, “we’d just open it for a few minutes. A few more gallons of water won’t hurt.”
The men went on for a while in front of the barrel that Anemone was hiding behind. When will they stop arguing like this? Anemone thought.
Finally, Anemone decided that it would be best if she quickly jumped out and wacked the men on the head with her bag. But before she could do that, the men had already moved towards the water tubes. They turned a valve, and water started moving. Anemone knew that if they used the third tube, the huge metal container would explode from all of the pressure. Maybe I could use the huge explosion as a distraction for me to escape. She thought.
Anemone waited for what felt like hours, but then a huge explosion happened. The water tank bursted. Water went everywhere. People were running and screaming. Anemone took the chance and sprinted towards the ladder to the deck below. She’d only have five minutes before they noticed where she had gone.
I hope this is the right choice. My parents will be proud of me, right? She kept climbing down the ladder. The ground was in sight. Anemone took the inflatable boat out of her pack, pressed a button, and watched as it rose up. The water was clearer than she had expected. In school, they were taught that the water below was infected with all sorts of different things and that they shouldn’t get anywhere within 100 feet of it. But, here she was.
She tossed her pack into the boat and made sure the boat was secured. She pushed it away from the dock and she started floating into the open sea. In her pack, she had a sweet smelling chewy fruit called an aerfructus. It had been gardened by her people Up Above. Inside of the fruit, there were small nanobots that lived for a few days and would give your body nutrients it needed and even heal you if you had any wounds.
She also had a wayfinder, which was an old compass that would point towards any coordinate you’d like. Back when her people had still adventured out, they had invented it. But since it wasn’t used anymore they kept it in a safe inside of the council building. It had taken her months to plan how to get her hands on one. She finally had it. She rubbed her fingers over the cold metal and looked at the map she had. The first place she planned on visiting was the Himalayan Mountains, since it was at a high altitude. It was time for her adventure
Part 4
Months had passed since Anemone had departed the dock. All she could see, in every direction, was water. She lived off of fish. Occasionally she had even fallen out of her boat, but she learned to get the strength to climb back in.
Every once in a while, she’d think that she saw land but in reality it wasn’t. And it’d just be a trick of the eye. She was getting tired of just sailing in the open sea, but there wasn’t anything else to do.
Just when she was losing hope, she saw land! She paddled harder than before. She was determined to reach land. After what felt like hours, the water was shallow enough that she could stand up and push her boat towards the shore.
Anemone recalled back the survival books she had read from the banned section in the library, and she remembered that it had said to survey your surroundings and look for sources of food, water, or shelter. Obviously there was water all around her, and since there was land there was bound to be some sort of plant that’d be edible. Or maybe even animals.
She decided to shrink her boat and place it into her pack, just in case. And then she walked, with the warm afternoon sun on her back. Anemone breathed in the fresh air. She sat down on a rock and took a break to eat one of her last aerfructus.
She felt a blow of hot air on the back of her neck. Anemone froze and slowly turned around. A fluffy, black and white animal stared at her. She had seen a picture of one of these creatures before. It was a giant panda!
Although she knew it wasn’t wisest to, she reached out her hand towards the fluffy beast. Its fur was like a rug, warm and soft. The panda gently nuzzled its nose at her. Anemone giggled. “What should I name you, little guy? How does Silas sound?” The panda stared at her. “I’ll take that as a yes.”
The panda reached out a paw towards her pack, and she realized that he wanted the fish from her. She quickly took it out and tossed it towards Silas and he ate it in one bite. She started walking again, wanting to cover more ground before it became dark. Silas followed her.
Anemone heard the crackling of fire, chatter, and footsteps. Civilization! She crouched down from behind a bush and spied on the people. It appeared that they were eating dinner. And, because of her nano language chip which allowed her to understand 1,000 other languages as well as speak them, she could understand what they were saying. She had paid 60 whisps for it but it hadn’t been needed until now. What would be the best way to approach them? Before she could think of a way, she was discovered. The villagers came towards her, yelling and screaming. It took her nano chip a few minutes to translate since it hadn’t been used, but once it did she understood.
“A human girl! What do we do with her? Bring her in for questioning.”
Their rough hands pulled her towards the center of the village, which she assumed was like a gathering area. They took her pack from her hands and started digging through it, and they also tied her up against the post.
A man that had a colorful crown made of grass on top of his head stood in front of her. Judging by how well dressed he looked compared to the other villagers, she could only assume he was the chief. “Are you from an enemy village? What are your intentions?”
She gazed in shock. She still couldn’t comprehend that she had met a real human being. “Sorry, sir. I’m from a village far away, in the sky. My name is Anemone. I promise I’m friendly, I don’t have any intentions of causing harm.”
He stared at her. Anemone had a feeling he didn’t quite believe her. “We could have you stay in someone’s house. They’ll watch over you 24/7 until we trust you.”
She nodded her head and agreed. Many months later, she had finally settled down in the village. The villagers loved her. She brought all sorts of new technology for them to use.
One day, she approached the head chief. “Sir, the main reason that I have left my home to explore is because I wanted to see if I could find my parents. They left when I was young to explore and never returned. Have you ever seen a middle aged couple travelling?”
The chief sighed. “Yes, we have. 10 years ago a couple came through and we were hesitant but after a few months they had earned our trust. They were well loved by our people. But, they decided to go to another village that was an enemy of ours. A few days later, we heard that the village had been burned down. And there were no survivors.”
Anemone stared at the ground in shock. Her parents were dead? She didn’t know what to do. “I’m going to think about what I want to do. I’ll get back to you in a few days.”
She went back to her hut and sat down on her bed in thought. Finally, she decided that she was going to stay in the village. She loved the people and it was her new home, along with Silas the giant panda.

End notes
I don't know how to songwrite gamers.
In my defense for the repetition, chorus. I hope it's alright haha. I tried to pull from the cabin lore as well, but it was really hard to figure out good words

What Are They Even Doing in Fanfic? (164 words)
Fanfic!
What do they even do there,
I truly don't know
Where they even go
In fan-fi
Oh! I forgot something
I'm supposed to be convincing you
That we're friends or something
So that we can betray you later on-
Ignore that, fan-fi!
Later on,
You divide into fandoms
(or something like that,
nobody truly knows)
And have fun, um,
Oh, right!
That's right, that's right!
They're all doing something that has to do with rock
Yup, that's all that's on their clock
Something to do with music
But besides that?
No one else knows
What else goes
On in fan-fi
They have two word count groups, but are they all the same?
Of course, there's nobody to blame
That none of us know
What on earth goes
On in fan-fi
Mhm, it's not our fault
None of us are to blame
None of us are to shame
That no one knows
What goes
On in fan-fi
A Generic Call to Action (171 words)
Action is similar
Yes, it's something quite familiar
Yup, that's right
Differences despite
We know the words
That's illu-fi's verse
The Spiderverse!
Shooting webs across the web
We type out our archetypes
Brazen, loud, and clear
We scarf down mangoes
With so much grandeur
You'd think that we were something grander
But we're not
We're Action!
Our words don't fail
Even in the extremes
When all is lost
Everything still seems
Worth the cost
When Action gets involved
You all know
Something will come to a head
We're Scratch's favorite shooters of spiderwebs
Saving the day
We always win
Some day, some way
We're action
The rulers and writers of the Spiderverse
Always brooding and plotting
Penning, moving, and jotting
We'll write a story that comes from within
With the power of our cabin and our motivation
Tell them to watch out for where we've been
Watch them cede the win!
It's time to answer the call to action
Because that's who we are
We're Action!
Meet Sci-Fi (177 words)
Cyborgs and aliens
Godzillas and mothmen
In Sci-fi these are our bretheren
Sometimes they're our enemies,
but we don't have to talk about them
In sci-fi, we love making things go boom
Although today,
a virus seems to be
our imminent doom?
The author's not really sure
Though it seems we'd also like to make things burn
We all work for Stellaron
Securing and procuring
Positions and lots of different missions
What a time to be alive
The Internet needs to survive
But there's no need to fear
Sci-fi's here
Saving the day
One thwarted crime at a time
Sci-fi is a classic
We've been around as long as any cabin
We'll stay together till the end
Be it the end of the session or the end of the sun
And we never have to pretend
That everything is under control
We're all ready to rock and roll
Sci-fi, we're here for you
We'll steal for you
Unless you're illu-fi
Then we have no need for you
Bug off
We can't wait see you lose!
Fanfic!

Sci-fi, we're here for you
We'll steal for you
Unless you're illu-fi
Then we have no need for you
Bug off
We can't wait see you lose!
