    Summary

    You've been a perpetual shut-in for years, which has only gotten worse since getting your job at Valdivian. The inside of your house is just much safer than the outside. But, Sam, your only friend at this point, is having none of it after not seeing you for so long. So, she helps you dip your toes into the water of going out, making friends and experiencing the world. And maybe you learn the outside world isn't so bad, either.

    Summary

    After you’re laid off from your customer service job at Valdivian for being quote unquote “not a good fit,” you’re not sure how you’re going to make ends meet.

    That’s when you stumble across the Breaker Box, the city’s most popular magical club that caters to myths and creatures alike. And for some reason, they also just so happen to be looking to hire a human bartender.

    After a rough meeting with the maintenance man, Eddie, and a charming interview with face of the club, Volt, you start to find your place not just at the Breaker Box, but also with the club’s mysterious, magical co-owners.

    Summary

    Silver digs against your skin, crisp and tempting. Your eyes don’t dare to shut against the man towering over you. His breath is hot, waiting—wanting.

    “Careful there, live wire.”

    The cool shot of a muzzle presses against your back—another looming presence enters the fray.

    “Close your eyes and he just might slit your throat here.”

    Summary

    Spooky season was a state of mind at the Breaker Box. Those crunchy fall leaves had begun to hit the ground in Valdivia and Lauren Shaw was already breaking out the sweaters and her favorite autumn breeze candle.

    So it only took a little bit of convincing a certain dark-haired bartender into helping her (and her little pigtail-wearing, jewel thief toddler) decorating the club for Halloween in September.

    Summary

    The tuba was his first love. Hector spends every Friday evening playing in the local community orchestra in his city, where he shies away from attention (save a few friends') but delights in pouring dedication into his music. Behind the brass, the air poured from his lungs finally gains meaning, and playing in the lower register makes him feel… dependable. Essential.

    Then one day, he meets his second. You walk in, instrument in hand, and he curses himself for his irrationally immediate interest in you. And you notice the cute tubist peeking out at you from behind the metal, and little sticky notes with saccharine words find their way in between your sheet music.

    Summary

    But this light. This light is astounding. It kisses heat and oxygen and licks the whole building up in a blaze of glory. Wooden beams clatter to the ground as the entire thing comes down.

    This sorry excuse of antiquated property still gave him the nasty shivers. Even as the flames swallow it whole—Volt can almost make out the collapse of his childhood bedroom, robotic and grey. But now, in its vermillion magnificence, it’s just the most dazzling burn.

    Summary

    “Jean Loo Pissoir, hear that name as you choke–”

    Those siren stories were simply just fiction, mythology, really, it wasn’t anything that big of a deal, and yet…

    “Thinkin’ fishies sing sweetly, but he thinks they croak!”

    …This is a far cry from the beautiful singing that Sam had told you, you had envisioned more of a gentle, somber song that filled your ears, lulling you to peace; This was more similar to that of a knee to the stomach and a migraine alongside it.

    Or, after losing your job and having nothing else to do, you set out on sea. You just so happen to encounter a crapping siren. The aftermath is better than you expected.

    Summary

    Jean Loo Pissoir is a rather popular rap (or, attempting to token the term ‘crap’) artist. He is good at what he does, talented, and he knows it. He returns to his home town, to the club he started out in, the Breaker Box.

    He meets Johnny Splash, an amateur singer with a great voice but awful pacing and no lyrical flow. It’s crap (and not the cool kind). But the man himself manages to charm the rapper into giving him a tip (or two).
