Short Stories

If you’re looking for a one-off story to read, you’ve made your way to the correct section of the sewer! Everything contained here will be one chapter/one post and (most likely) will take place in a secluded universe. Meaning you can jump into any of these stories head first, no further context needed. On the off chance any of these short stories are part of series, both a link to the related stories and a warning will be provided before the story begins.

Speaking of warnings, beside the link and description of each story will be a list of any possible triggers. Be sure to check these out before continuing onward. While I do my best to avoid any hints/spoilers while listing these, I don’t want any sewer rats to be caught off guard while trying to read. Tread cautiously and stay wary of any “mouse traps,” its better to avoid them entirely than get caught in one!

Everything posted here will most likely be under 50,000 words at most. And a couple thousand words at the very least. Though there may be outliers, this is a general rule of thumb to keep in mind. I’ll also place the word count with the title of each work so any interested readers can judge the time commitment needed!

Now that I’ve said my little spiel, feel free to run off and explore this section of the sewer! Dig around, check around each corner, sniff every nook and cranny! Maybe you’ll find something to sink your teeth into and enjoy.
