Summary
“You don't listen, Gem!” Her first mate shouts, long brown hair whipping around her face. The captain has told her over a dozen times she should pull it back, but the first mate rarely listens. “You jump in headfirst without coming up with a plan, and it explodes in your face! Every time, Gem! And yet you keep doing it, as if it’s the first! You never think things through!”
The first mate looks angry. Furious, even. It takes a lot to get the first mate riled up. Normally, the captain is the hotheaded one, always quick to act on emotion, while her second in command is calm, cool, and collected. Easily flustered, maybe, but not easily angered. It’s almost as though they’ve switched roles.
How strange, the captain thinks to herself.
or, pearl and gem are at sea, and a storm approaches.

Summary
The shadows were restless. That meant they were whispering, which meant they were actively getting louder, which meant that Scar’s thoughts had been replaced with the incoherent chatter going on around him.
“Would you shut up?” He snapped at the air. “I’m trying to think.”
He didn’t know how many were in there with him. He didn’t want to look. They tended to wander as they pleased around the first floor, whether or not he was in the room—though something kept them from going up the stairs.
Which was completely fine with Scar. It meant he could at least fall asleep in peace, even if he did always wake up screaming.
Or, Scar hasn’t left his house in a while, on account of the constant nightmares, relentless pain, and overwhelming exhaustion. The shadows haunting him aren’t much help, either.

Summary
Pearl should never have taken the stars, in the first place.
Or, Pearl never meant to cause trouble. But loneliness causes us to do all sorts of things we never would have even considered otherwise. And unfortunately, consequences still follow—however unfair they might be.

Summary
“How long have you been a gravedigger?” Scar asks the woman with pink hair.
“I began quite young—I believe it was the year King Jimmy was crowned, Watchers rest his soul.”
“And how long ago was that?”
She stops her work to stare at him, astonishment lining her face. “Don’t you know when the king was crowned? By God, man, even the greatest fool in the kingdom could tell you that—I know because I’m married to him.”
“Your husband is a fool?” Pearl asks.
The gravedigger shrugs. “Well, he married me, so there must be something wrong with him.”
Or, about half of Act V Scene I from Hamlet, but cast as the life series characters.
or or, I cast Scar as Hamlet and Lizzie as the gravedigger because they just have those vibes
or or OR, lizzie being a cryptid for almost three thousand words

Summary
She stood frozen, staring. He pulled a clump of sod from his hair. Even from here she could smell it, the heavy, acrid scent that clung to him, like earth turned over, like pavement after rain.
“Natalie,” her mother beamed, eyes huge and bright and wet, “Say hello to your brother.”
He waved at her. “Surprise,” he said mildly, as if he were dropping in for dinner. “Can I use your shower?”

Summary
"David could have been lying there for hours or days or years when he heard someone go 'What?'
A reaction people had had to David before. Usually it took at least him opening his mouth. 'New record,' he said aloud, not uncovering his eyes. 'Congratulations, Mr. Fry, you’ve outdone yourself. Oh, no, don’t mention it. But how remarkable! I mean really don’t mention it, I thought I was done with this shit. Makes a man want to die again.'
There was a long silence from whoever had discovered him. Also not an uncommon reaction. David waved his free hand. 'Bug off. This is my afterlife. Get your own.'"
***
For the first time since he died, David talks to another spirit -- someone in an oddly similar situation. This might prove to be helpful for both of them. -

Summary
She was curled into a ball next to her desk chair, tears staining her sweatpants. Gabe slinked onto her bed, and it creaked under his weight. “Hey, Nat. What happened this time? Can I come down there with you?” He asked gently. She nodded, and he slid off her bed, onto the rug near her. The back of his head rested against the mattress. “Can I come closer?” He added. She nodded again with a small whimper, immediately falling into his arms with a cry. He gently ran his hand through her matted blonde curls. “Shh, Sunshine..”
“I-i just, I was writing this song for the talent show and I just can’t get it right.” She sobbed, practically swallowing her words.
She had a beautiful voice. It tore him apart that she thought she wasn’t good enough. She did choir for a moment in middle school, but decided it wasn’t for her, and threw herself into swim team and piano instead. He was the singing one, the one who stayed in choir, the one in musical theatre, the one who made music, the one who sang her and their mom to sleep. “Okay. Sing it for me, Sunshine.”
