Dear readers, again I must apologize to you. I work a difficult job that sometimes smashes into my weekend and when I planned to finalize the narration videos for 11 and 12, work called. So, I plan on finishing both tomorrow, Monday once this proposal for work is finished (out of my hands Tuesday). But… Continue reading Episode Twelve
(Hi readers. Apologies on the lack of a video today. I will endeavor to get it up ASAP. My intention has been not to let this story, or any writing, impact my mental health negatively. Unfortunately, I've had a rough couple of months in terms of work load and how much I've been doing, and… Continue reading Episode Eleven
https://youtu.be/nVhkFIDwbuA I grab Mateo by the arm and haul him into the house through one of the broken windows, praying the four newcomers haven’t noticed us yet. Mateo starts to protest but I cover his mouth. “I thought you said he abandoned this place,” I whisper. Mateo pulls away from my hand. “Yeah, dude, he… Continue reading Episode Ten
https://youtu.be/wA9m2GSxaJs Mateo and I stand at the edge of the Shells on the roof of a dilapidated apartment complex. The ruins of Houston’s university stretch before us. I listen for drones and capes. For now, we are alone. Mateo wears a green mask that covers everything but his eyes. I made it by hand in… Continue reading Episode Nine

It takes their ideals and their principles and weaves them a very fine noose. Terrence Lilac, Report on Affect Hues: Bronze Part Two: Dead Cape Domino Five days after Danger Close’s death, Bedevil rides in a luxury SUV… Continue reading Episode Seven
https://youtu.be/N0O7UuEUSYk A storm sewer isn’t an ideal place for a meal. Given the circumstances, it’ll have to do. We’re not far from one of my usual haunts, but I didn’t want to drag Mateo there in case we get followed again. My plan now is to see who else might chase us, or if we’re… Continue reading Episode Six
https://youtu.be/kEpvPXBCoZM Thump, thump, thump. Heavy metal boots march on the chapel roof. I stare in horror at the ceiling, waiting for the guillotine blade to fall. “How do you think he found us so quickly?” Megajoule asks. “I don’t know,” I mutter. Megajoule chuckles as he circles around me like a shark. “This is why… Continue reading Episode Five
https://youtu.be/8Pzoj2riLBQ Two hours ago, I slipped into the Marskin warehouse expecting to find a gang of a dozen welterweight punks. I was paid three hundred American dollars to take care of them. Paul and I desperately needed the money to make ends meet. Instead I found a mass tomb. The gang I was supposed to… Continue reading Episode Four
https://youtu.be/WIIBoOU44jk Food stalls lurk in the skeletons of office buildings. Homes are made with plastic tarp and corrugated steel more often than brick and mortar. Nearly every building here has been touched by Affected war at some point in the last century. Capes move overhead like moons shifting the tides of the lives below them.… Continue reading Episode Three
