Tuning in… Welcome back, folks! The Week of Chaos continues with TWO short stories from Brandon Scott, the SECOND SET so far. Prepare to be… *Cue music.* …unprepared. Our first tale is one about innoncence and what happens when one is deprived of such in the face of a grim reality. What will become of…
(NOTE BEFORE READING: Use the links. They’re your friends.) We begin our Week of Chaos (READ THIS) with a piece that requires little introduction.
