The Fallout Show Overview
I finally finished The Fallout Show after getting spoiled on some of the twists and deciding to binge the last few episodes now that I knew what was coming. That said, the show still managed to throw me a couple…
Cypress
Chapter 11: Places to Be
Sissy and Danny stared at me. Sissy like she was waiting for something, Danny like that something was a detonation. I picked up my slack jaw, caught in the thought mid-way through a sentence. “I-I was saying, you know, to…
Horizon Zero Dawn: Brin’s Prophecies
The first time I played through HZD, I almost missed Brin entirely. As a minor npc in the middle of nowhere, his quests are surprisingly out of character for a game that prided itself on sticking to hard sci-fi instead…

Chapter 7: Finally Home
The night passed with old pictures and old stories until Holly’s eyes grew heavy and her head rested against my shoulder. Sissy gently pulled the empty plate from her hands and Stella and Gia slid the albums back into the…
