Promptober 2025 Day 14: Grave Dirt

Using thepromptfoundry’s Ominous October list.

Agatha’s second story! I’m honestly really proud of this one. Agatha is my OC for krakaheimr‘s Chicago Spirit setting. But honestly this story has very little to do with that. This is historical fiction about an NB person dealing with their baggage.

CW for passing reference to past underage sex work. Agatha is from the early 1900s and she’s had it rough.

+++

The soil of Flanders Fields seems to seethe beneath Agatha’s feet as she walks through the poppies and graves of Ypres.

She had thought she would never come back here again. Never wanted to. The earth of the continent where she was born is a mass grave, and one of the things buried here is the person she should have been.

But then that’s why she had to come back, isn’t it? She couldn’t run forever; she’s not that kind of coward. No, cowardice has little to do with it. You spend years running from the pain and then one day, you look into the mirror and you understand it’s either time to turn and fight or to allow the past to take control of you.

And that is exactly why she left the first time. She is her own. She has paid far too much to achieve that. She will allow no one else to control her; not even her own memories.

She’s worn a funeral suit to this place, as befits a man visiting his own grave. Her trousered legs brush and hiss through the poppies and with each step those memories well up from the blood-soaked earth that bore witness: of how she slowly shed her humanity like the soldiers here shed their lives. Drip by drip. When she stopped being a girl, and became a woman. A man. A spy. A prostitute. A liar. A killer. A traitor. A disembodied knife in the dark. A monster.

And there, finally, she finds peace. She’s proud of her monstrosity. It feels like the truth. She wouldn’t choose to go back.

The men who ran the German war effort, who used her as a tool in her tender adolescence and turned her into a whore and spy and assassin for the Fatherland…they’ve walked on this soil. These very poppy fields contain, somewhere, the imprints of their squalid feet. Perhaps if she finds them, she can drive some iron nails through them. It’s a long shot, but she pocketed some before she came here, just on the off chance.

She has her knives too, on the chance she should meet any of them in person.

Promptober 2025 Day 10: Cries on the Wind

Using thepromptfoundry’s Ominous October list.

First story for my mage, Griffin! No CWs for this one; just a lil old urban wizard having an adventure.

***

The hounds of the Wild Hunt are baying through the city streets. The unaware might think they’re the screams of racing motorcycles down the drag that cuts through the city. But Griffin and every other supernatural being in the area looks for shelter.

It’s not the High Hunt, thank every god Griffin can think of—the Rede, the great ritual marking the coming of the hungry dark, the one that blankets the sleeping earth in blood in sacred offering and calls forth the season of the restless dead.

But the sluagh sidhe run rampant at this time of year and they hunt where they like. And anything sane gets out of their way because the winter night belongs to them. Depending on where you are, their herald might be the lengthening hooked shadows of the forest sweeping down on you, the bay of hounds at midnight, the whirring wings of the migrating geese, or the howls of the late-night motorcycle races on the interstate.

Griffin unfortunately isn’t anywhere close to convenient light or a protective threshold. He’s ducking through a parking garage, hoping it’ll be enough, when he feels the plucking at him: the Wild Hunt has caught his scent.

Nothing for it now. He breaks into a run.

The bond of it solidifies as he runs. It hooks into his magic and his self. It’s not magic, it’s deeper than that: the pure, primal connection between hunter and hunted. There’s nothing so terrifying, or so alive, or so intimate.

With every thunk of his feet against the pavement, it pounds up through him, the drums of the dance of survival that’s been danced since long before humans existed. The sacred ancient relationship of predator and prey.

The claws of his hunters catch at his clothes and hair, rake across his skin and his magic. They aren’t in sight yet but the tie to them is inside him. They slow him down, make him stumble, tugging him back toward the savage promise of their arms and their teeth. His breath drags in his throat.

He leaps down the five steps that lead from the street to the promenade of Riverside Park and grabs at the air, pulling out the moisture drifting off the river to whip it into a dense fog. In the sheltering clouds of mist, the light poles stand out. He weaves the pools of hazy light into his cupped hands and blows them out again, sending them rolling off into different directions to try to confuse the path.

Then he bolts again, for the pedestrian bridge. A ways behind, he can hear the wheels of the hounds—shivers at the feel of their skidding tires bouncing down the stairs.

His misdirections work on one; water and the snarl of a revving, sodden motor splash across his mind where it mistook the river bank and went into the water. Its clutching grip releases from him, at least one pursuer accepting its prey has outsmarted it this time.

But there’s still the rest of the pack. The others lick at him, savoring their defeat of his trap and knowing they’re that much closer to taking their prize. He gasps at the phantom burn of hot saliva dripping down the back of his neck.

Focus, Griffin. Focus.

The entry to one of the subway stations is coming up. He pulls out his pen knife and slows a little, long enough to slash a few drips of blood from a finger and flick it down the street, slivering off an echo of himself that goes running for its life on past the entrance.

Then he reaches up to the clouds passing over the moon, the ones that hide its light in the same hollow blue-black as the dark sky, and pulls their veil around him, vanishing into the night to creep down the steps into the station.  There aren’t enough people there at this time of night to ward off the fae, but the mess of trails might be confusing enough to lose them.

There’s no train, and waiting for one would be insane. He slides through the shadows of the station as best he can, trying to keep the lights from burning away his veil of shadows, and ducks down into the tunnels.

Here the rats whisper secrets and directions to each other. Listening to them tells him where to go. A train is coming soon—they can feel the ground beginning to vibrate with its mammoth momentum—but up here there’s a side passage. It’s a service access, when Griffin reaches it: a towering cavern to a rat but small enough that Griffin has to duck a little to keep his hair from snagging on the grilles along the top.

From behind him, there’s a whine that could be an over-revved racing bike in low gear. And then it’s answered by another one up ahead in the tunnel. The Wild Hunt’s grip squeezes crushingly around him at the realization that he’s fucked, and he staggers.

Their laughter chitters and scrapes along the walls, raking him as they close in from either side till they come into view. Blurry, morphing figures, their shapes resolving differently every time he blinks Four-legged, glowing-eyed hounds with slashing, dripping teeth. Crouching, long-limbed beings in the general shape of human, with claws and long flowing black hair. Gleaming, fierce-looking motorcyles with  swept-back handlebars and headlights that glint red.

They’re inching closer, and he can feel them all around him. Inside him. Their claws and hands and hooves and tires and tongues dragging over his skin, his mouth, his mind, their grip sinking into him till he’s gasping for breath.

Griffin pulls all his magic tight, till it fills him to the brim, his body and shape a perfect vessel for it. Then he jams his hands upwards, into the thick power cables protected by the ceiling grilles, and calls the lightning.

The world goes blank in blinding white, agonizing sound. The concussion bounces off the walls and back to him, pummeling him from all sides. The last thing he hears is the hounds beginning to screech as they’re knocked away, the condensed shadow of their bodies evaporating in the totality of the lightning he’s summoned. The last thing he feels besides the purity of being swallowed by electricity is the grip of their claws slipping reluctantly from his mind.

When the world returns to his senses, he drags himself, groaning, back up onto his knees and huddles there. His clothes are shredded, and what’s left of them is smoking. Lichtenberg figures curve their delicate fractal lines over his exposed skin. The Wild Hunt is nowhere to be seen.

He’s gonna have to walk home like this.

#PromptOber - Zusammenfassung … von der #Effizienz und dem #Verlusst durch #KI

https://harald-schirmer.de/2024/10/10/promptober-zusammenfassung

Zeit ist kostbar. Besonders hilfreich sind KI-Assistenten, bestehende Datenquellen zu sichten und je nach Bedarf zusammenzufassen.

- Das Wesentliche ist für die Augen unsichtbar.

Aber Achtung:

Meiner Erfahrung nach sind solche “Verkürzungen” sehr beeindruckend und hilfreich einen ersten Einblick zu bekommen. Sie können aber weder das echte, emotionale…

#PromptOber - Achtung BIAS … #KI und Kreativität oder warum unsere Phantasie noch lange viel mehr “Denkmöglichkeiten” hat, als generative KI

… oder warum #Gendern beim #Prompt unverzichtbar ist

… oder warum bei KI alle “Menschen” eher wie aus dem Katalog aussehen, statt eine realistische “Vielfalt” abzubilden

… oder wie eine Asiatin, ein Afrikaner oder Ägypterin wohl unsere KI-Ergebnisse beurteilen würde

… haben wir schon über Darstellung von “Alter” gesprochen

https://harald-schirmer.de/2024/10/09/promptober-achtung-bias

#PromptOber - sichere Link Kontrolle
Angst vor #SPAM? - dann lass KI den Link öffnen und Dir eine Zusammenfassung geben.
Gleiches gilt für Events (nur Marketing oder Relevant für Dich?) oder AGBs und andere „Monster-Dokumente“
#KI kann das Wesentliche für Dich zusammenfassen.

#Promptober #Bilderkennung - Habt Ihr schon mal #KI verwendet um ein Bild zu analysieren?
Etwas suchen setzt voraus, dass man weiß, wie ein Produkt, Bauteil oder Werkzeug heißt. KI kann dabei helfen, das herauszufinden: https://harald-schirmer.de/2024/10/07/promptober-bilderkennung
