《Whimsical Invitations》The Air-Hockey Table
Advertisement
Sometimes you gotta punch the air-hockey table.
Sometimes fate just works that way.
I know a guy,
When he was asked the question,
He simply said no.
It's simple and hassle-free.
But sometimes you gotta punch the air-hockey table.
Sometimes, the fate you really want requires a price.
It requires a mistake, a sacrifice.
I knew a guy,
And when he was asked the question
He simply said no.
Four years later he mourned his fate.
“Why, oh, why didn't I punch that hockey table!” He exclaimed.
It was unfortunate to watch,
As his life descended into chaos.
Simply because,
Sometimes you gotta punch the air-hockey table.
Why? You’re asking me why?
I’m not sure.
Sometimes the heavens demand it.
Sometimes its worth the price.
Sometimes, as you pray,
Mourning for your life,
Wishing for another chance,
A way to take it all back,
Or an opportunity to float in the sky,
Sometimes that requires sincerity.
Why did the heavens ask for a punched in air-hockey table?
I have no idea.

The Big Yoink: A Smol Detective Story
This is another fanfic set in the universe of They Are Smol, a delightful series of stories which you should totally go read right now if you haven’t. It’s a sequel to my own The Smol Detective. In this story, Oscar Williams and his adopted alien family have to determine the guilt or innocence of another human and her two alien friends. The trio stands accused of stealing a sacred relic, and if it isn’t found soon an ancient religious cold war could turn very hot indeed… Formal Disclaimer Type Thing: I do not take credit for the original setting, this story is set in an alternate version of the 'They are Smol' universe, written by the one, the only u/tinyprancinghorse. TPH takes many forms and is known by many names. He is like Nyarlathotep, only smaller and cuter and more prancey. TPH also has a Website should you require more Smol Shenanigans in your life. Which you do, so get over there and read it. The cover art for this sequel again comes courtesy of the mighty Akella, and they deserve lots of headpats from giant aliens because they are awesome.
