A forgotten, unpublished tale of Halloween from the Twilight Zone, will you be able to finish reading?

Charlie Boone, his boyfriend Kip, and their friends, Rick and Adrian, are heading for a laid back Halloween this year, housesitting for Ricky's cousin. Only the house is not quite what they expected, and neither are its occupants...

Keith, the Warlord Prince of Marmora, will do anything to save his people from an unwinnable war against the rest of the solar system. Anything, even if it means the end of the only life he’s ever known, moving to a planet where he will be the only member of his species. Even if it means marrying a man sent against him in battle, someone who he has tried to kill.
Admiral Shirogane is willing to accept the marriage for the sake of the Coalition and the peace treaty which will bring an end to the bloodshed, but that doesn’t mean it will be easy. Especially not if the Second Prince of the Galra still seems intent on fighting him at every turn.

After a morning of hard sparring with his best friend, Shiro is looking forward to a shower. But he's forgotten his shampoo, and Keith's price to borrow his, is that Shiro let's him wash his hair.
Hopefully no one else will want to use the showers...

Keith does not want to wait until after his boyfriend gets back from Kerberos to have sex for the first time, but neither of them want to try and sneak a quickie in at the Garrison where they are continually watched, interrupted, and their schedules pull them away from each other.

But Keith knows a place out in the desert, and with a little preparation, Shiro is going to make the cabin perfect for the boy he loves.

The Moresby Collective Association controls life for Terrans living on Moresby’s Planet in the Andromeda galaxy.

Chasing them are thirty-one adults who will kill every teen, except for their leader Edgar Christiansson. He will be returned to the village to be executed in a way only humans can imagine.

Charlie Boone and friends get together in the magical town of Twombly for a Christmas party and magic show. Better late than never!

It's been a year since they thwarted the terrorist plot on Los Angeles, but things are still far from over, especially for Riley and Gray. Both had come to terms with never seeing each other again. But things change when Riley is forced into a mission that lands him in the worn torn city of San Francisco, right where Gray happens to be. Will these two be able to rekindle their lost love, or will it be lost forever?

Cyberpunk 2077 fanfic. Kerry Eurodyne/V.

He plays for me, humming along with the melody. Waves break lazily against the side of the yacht as it moves along down the bay at a leisurely pace. I lean back in my seat and just watch him, listen to the sound of his voice. Always liked that voice. Always listened when it came up on the radio.

————————

It's weird, hitting it off with a much older musician you've always admired. Weirder still when you've got his long dead best friend kicking around in your brain...

My take on V and Kerry's relationship from Boat Drinks onward and past the Stars/Aldecaldos ending.

Johnny's been on the road with Santiago's Aldecaldos for years. Upon their return to California, Johnny meets V, another nomad, who seems to have a strange ability to put him at ease. When Johnny returns to Night City, V decides to come with. Johnny wants to bring his band back together, and to do that there's one person he needs more than anybody else: Kerry Eurodyne. Kerry, who hasn't seen Johnny in six years and is really pissed.

This is a fanfic based on the tabletop RPG franchise Cyberpunk and the video game Cyberpunk 2077, but all you really need to know is the world has fallen to pieces and everything is owned by corporations.
