'This isn't real'
'Well, did they make you cry? Make you break down? Shatter your illusions of love. And is it over now, do you know how? Pick up the pieces and go home.'
never really a morning person, except that one specific day. The day that everything took a turn for the worse. The events of the night before seemed to have taken a toll on my body. My eyes lifted open as sunlight streaked through the small window at the top of the small room, wait... this isn't my room... I quickly sat up, remembering the events of the day before. I was now wide awake, contrasting from my tired state from before. I looked around the room, it was a small room, with very plain and minimal furniture, the walls were a bright white, the floor was dark and wooden, the bed was old, rickety and wooden with a thin grey duvet, there was a lone window on the opposite side of the room, with metal bars across it, it was in the very top corner of the wall, blinding sunlight barely visible, making the rest of the room covered in dark shadows. Almost like I was in a basement.
Oh my god... I'm still here?... it's like a prison, a slightly upper class prison. Tears formed at the rim of my eyes, before they were harshly wiped away by the red sweater. Wait... whose sweater it this? I examined the red sweater that covered my torso, it was slightly bigger, like a mens sizing, and had the strong smell of expensive cologne.
I rested my face in my shivering hands and brought my knees closer to my body, clutching the duvet. This isn't real, it's a dream. Yeah... it's just a dream, a very bad dream. None of this is real. This isn't real. This isn't real. This isn't real. This isn't real. THIS ISN'T REAL WAKE UP- my troubled thoughts were abruptly brought to an end as the heavily locked door slammed open. Revealing a man I failed to recognise.

A blonde haired man walked in, he was well dressed but his hair was fairly messy. He lightly smiled at me before walking further into the room. As he walked in, my mind started to wander, I don't recognise him but I feel like I've seen him before. Then it suddenly clicked. It's him! The man from the restaurant, the one who left me the note. His smile twisted into a smirk as he studied my face. "Ah, I see you remember me" he slightly laughed at my shocked expression.
He walked over to my bed and sat down at the end, I shuffled back towards the headboard in fear. He was surprised by my scared reaction, but his surprisement quickly turned into laughter as he slightly bent over from laughing so much. I sat awkwardly against the headboard as he hysterically laughed.
He finally stopped laughing and looked back at me with a humorous smirk plastered on his face. "Why are you so scared I haven't even done anything?" He questioned as he began laughing again. I calmed down a little after hearing that, ok that's good, maybe he won't hurt me. He took notice of my calmed figure and turned his body to face mine. I slightly squinted by eyes in suspicion as his body language abruptly changed.
His cruel smirk widened as he noticed my suspicions glare. "That doesn't mean I won't do anything, you have every right to be scared. You have no idea what I will do to you." He lightly chuckled at my trembling figure, and turned back around, getting off the bed. I took a deep breath, before asking, "w-what will you do to me?" I quickly became nervous as I anticipated his answer. He paused for a second, before leaning closer to me. "Whatever the fuck I want."

He took a few steps back, and stared at me, not doing or saying anything. I tilted my head up in confusion as he stepped closer towards me. "In a few hours, a man with brown hair with slight blonde highlights is going to come into this room to ask you some questions, and you're gonna answer them honestly. Unless you wanna find out what happens if you lie?" He spoke, his smirk widening as the sentence ended.
I nervously shook my head, "that's what I thought."
"Good bye. [name]." He spoke in an eerily calm tone, as he finished the sentence he placed a light kiss on my tear stained cheek. He looked at me again smirking smugly as what he had done, before walking out the room, locking the door. Leaving me in shock as I subconsciously brought my shivering hand up to my cheek, brushing over the skin he kissed, still being able to feel his rough lips on my skin.
What the hell just happened?
——————————
FUCK WAS THAT I.N" The purple haired man screamed at him, I.N didn't react in any way, only stared at him with an uninterested stare. "WHY THE HELL DID YOU KISS HER." I.N laughed at his inflamed reaction and took a few steps closer, "why are you making such a big deal out of it? It was only on her cheek, despite how much I wanted it to be her lips." The purple haired man scoffed and rolled his eyes, before turning back to I.N. "Jeongin, you kissed her for fuck sake, she's not here to be your stupid little slut," he brought his hand up to his forehead in annoyance, massaging his temples.
Jeongin smirked at his reaction, and slightly tilted his head back smugly. "What, are you jealous Lee know?" He mocked. Lee know turned back to him, hesitating for a second. His brown eyes boring into Jeongin's deep and mysterious brown eyes.
"So what if I am Jeongin." Lee know smugly said after a moment of silence, surprising I.N, "tell me Jeongin, what was it like kissing her?" He asked, leaning towards I.N and smirked at Jeongin's silence. Jeongin hesitated for a second, but his iconic smirk quickly returned to his face, "I guess you'll just have to find out yourself." Were his final words, before he turned around, waking out of the hallway.
Lee know cocked his head to the side before replying, "maybe I will, I.N." Jeongin turned around, letting out a small chuckle. "But mark my words I.N, that stupid little bitch is mine. Not yours, not BangChan's, no one else's but mine."
Jeongin's smirk quickly fell, and was replaced by a deadly stare. "We'll see about that." Before turning around, and walking away. Silence filling the awkward space.

Moonshot
Gregarious businessman Evin Tumble is fascinated by the sudden and inexplicable appearance of a low-orbiting moon. Specifically, he's interested in shooting it down with a giant cannon. The moon is only about eight miles overhead, but it's high enough and quick enough that nobody can reach it by balloon or airship. He hires our protagonists: taciturn Iseult Morrin, cheerful Sean Whelan, and nervous Íde Ceallaigh, to help him with his obsession. As our heroes are dispersed across the continent to perform tasks for Tumble, and the moon-hunt draws closer, they become increasingly suspicious of their benefactor's motives and true nature. Moonshot is a story centred around struggling with confidence, the difficulty of being an immigrant, and the duality of truth, all clad in the trappings of an urban fantasy. It is character-driven, from the heart, and based on tropes and ideas that are missing from a lot of contemporary fantasy (a push beyond the flawless-yet-somehow-still-needs-rescuing-by-an-oafish-man heroine trope, a touch of cosmic magic based on the shared geometries of Celtic and Arab art).
