    Summary

    Every day, Mr. Samsa walked through the streets and went to the bank with a lingering presence of filth, with the image of a giant, scuttling insect in the back of his mind. His being was a tense mass, holding himself together, holding his secrets together, preserving the image of the family against the forces of the universe and the prying eyes of the city. He could feel gazes on him at all times, and the image in the mirror was one he went to often, for it was a necessity to see himself, to see his features, and be reassured that they were still average and not at all out of the ordinary. His hands were cracked and red and itchy and still, he washed them. Soap, hot water, rubbing—he scrubbed the filth, and scrubbed it again, and again and again, until there was not a speck of dirt left on them.

    Or, a look into the thoughts of Gregor's father in The Metamorphosis.

    Summary

    Hii, this is a roughly made translation of a work I already did in spanish, so, feel free to comment anything amiss.

    ***
    I wrote a continuation to the book; it’s been in my notebooks for a while, and I wanted to polish it and publish it, so that others can read it.

    Summary

    One morning, when Gregor Samsa roused from troubled dreams, he found himself unable to move a centimetre. He lay paralyzed on his back, staring straight up at the ceiling, incapable of blinking, yet his eyes did not sting in the slightest. He strained to shift his gaze from its fixed spot on the rafters, but his efforts were in vain. His eyes, like the rest of him, remained glued in place.

    A different version of The Metamorphosis in which Gregor Samsa never left his bed.

    Summary

    A series of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy AU pre-canon fics about Ford Prefect confronting his drinking problem, Arthur Dent managing his anxiety, and both of them falling in love, whatever that means for them.

    Each entry in this series is meant to be able, as much as possible, to be read as a standalone story without needing the other fics for context, but the later a fic is in the series, the more context may be required.
