Notes

In Bloomington’s Breeze

Bloomington was not your everyday English town. Nestled between rolling hills and whispering woodlands, every resident had a minor magical ability. From Mrs. Elmsley who could make her ginger snaps taste like any meal you fancied, to young Tim who could produce melodies out of thin air.

The Last Departure

Life’s journey is a series of trains and platforms. Every station is a crossroads, and every train, a missed opportunity. M waited too long for the perfect moment, only to find himself alone at the journey’s end.

Layers of Reality

In the year 2578, the Earth was a lush Eden. Towering forests grew untouched, oceans teemed with marine life, and vast plains pulsed with herds of wildlife. Until the Back-to-Earth Movement began.

The Tailor of Warsaw

As Andrzej gazed at his reflection in the mirror, he saw not just a man preparing for a potential new role in government but a reflection of the duality of his life. In the mirror, he was a figure of composure and refinement, but beyond the glass lay a reality of tumult and uncertainty.

Digital Spirits

In the great server-farm city of Zero-One, where humans had ceased having faces or bodies, Albert cracked his knuckles, digitally speaking. “You know, we’ve lost something in becoming 1s and 0s,” he mused, tossing an algorithm back and forth with his friend, Sam.

Carved Chronicles

In the quaint village of Shropshire, Emily sat in her garden, the scent of roses wafting through the air. She was still grappling with the loss of her father, Henry, when a solicitor arrived with a revelation that would change her life forever.

The Way He Parked His Car

Small changes often signal big troubles. The way he parked his car – not quite right – was the first clue something was terribly wrong. Then, there was a long silence at his door followed by flowers and notes left by neighbours.

Life Reviser

With the hospital room as the stage and the soft hum of machines as the ambient score, John’s life was poised to transform into a riveting motion picture. The Life Reviser was the director ready to capture every scene, every emotion, in this final, cinematic journey of a lifetime.

Vegetable Mix-Up

In the shadow of dawn at Dongseong Complex, a routine morning twisted into tragedy: a vegetable-sorting robot, in a chilling misjudgment, claimed a human life.

The Parking People

In the tranquil London suburb of Acton, a new block of flats had recently sprung up. Built in compliance with the latest legislation, 80% of the flats were snatched up by private buyers, while the remaining 20% were designated as social housing.
