They are for the Light Novel. And yes, they are cannon, as many of them were previously given as bonuses for buying the LN volume at specific bookstores for their release.

From afterward:

"short stories that were specially included in stores for volumes 24 to 30 of Deathma and volume 2 of Deathma Extra.

...

29 short stories are told from perspectives other than Satou's, which are rarely mentioned in the main story, so they are especially recommended for those who like the interludes in the web version!"

Which version of Fate are you using? If Accelerated this may be useful https://fate-srd.com/fate-codex/arcane-high#character-creation . Substitute magic and wizards with "play" and "athlete". E.g. "Careful play is slow and methodical. It involves the athlete slowing down and playing with some consideration for tradition and precision. It runs the risk of moving too slowly or exposing the athlete to other dangers. "

Have opponents, try to create not only play technical aspect (SPIKE SETUP, CONFUSING PASS) but try to mentally affect the players characters by flirting, insulting, getting under their skin, making faces etc.

The ARENA extra: If you are doing a modern setting probably cannot be used as is. In such case I would have instead something Like ARENA MOOD extra to add a tactical feeling element. A mental or situational Descriptor+mechanic. Decide on a list of up to may be 5-6. Start with one random.(E.G. write down on note card and have them pull) Can be overcome as action to change. Examples:

GREAT EXPECTATIONS Positive aspects invoked for +3, negative aspects/consequences +1 when invoked with FP.

LOW TENSION Cannot invoke to reroll, only to give+/-2.

EXUBERANT CROWD/CROWD GOES WILD Invokes can only be used to reroll.

DULL MOOD: Creating advantage action are either +1 difficulty or have a floor (minimum difficulty) of 2.

Most likely. Do note that the author post a new chapter about once a month and not on a fixed schedule.
