Table Stories

"My last day as an ordinary human began with a scream in the middle of that half-asleep haze. And weirdly enough, it wasn't mine." Francesco Penati is not a normal guy: he sees things he shouldn't see, talks to relatives no one else can interact with, and loves to cook. On the day of his eighteenth birthday, he inherits his family's trattoria-complete with a deconsecrated church and its adjoining cemetery. But his relatives vanish, and he finds himself attacked by a hag and a shadowy monster. Saved by an unlikely Nero, freshly escaped from the mythological prison he'd been locked in, the two of them must begin a journey along the Via Emilia among ancient flavors, forgotten folklore, and corrupted gods-while a demon older than fear itself schemes in the background. One new chapter on Sunday

You were only supposed to help the merch table for one set. One chaotic line, one stubborn card reader, and one borrowed band tee. Then Kirishima Eijiro; the band's ridiculously friendly guitarist walks up, sees you wearing his merch like it was made for you... and forgets how to function. Pop-punk noise, neon venue lights, and one flirty line that turns into a problem: "So... you come with the shirt, or is that extra?" Author's Note: Rock band AU - No Quirks - MHA characters but look modern in today's world. Ex: no sharp teeth, no pink skin for Mina but has pink hair and eyes, etc. Song inspiration "She Looks So Perfect" by 5 Seconds of Summer. RANKINGS: February 2026: #1 for Eijiro

“You do it like this.” he pushed the button and the paper went back to the place he shot at. “Just stand with your legs apart and shoulders strong,” he adjusted my posture. I felt tingly as he rubbed his hands along my hips to adjust me to the right posture. “Now click the safety,” as I did this the blood was pumping and I was super excited. I was about to shoot a gun for the first time. “Whenever you’re ready” he spoke still standing behind me. I aimed at the target and shot. One…two…three…four It was exhilarating, better than anything I had ever done before. The feeling of the backfire and ricochet off of the target. It was like I could handle anything that was thrown at my way. I would defiantly have to have him teach me how to do more."

A story about a girl whose life doesn't seem to give her any answers, and where life itself wants to control her. Needless to say she tries to rebel against it's plan for her.
