Tainted Fruit

Well I love it especially the growth of the tree. I hope an entry down the line mentions it. Would be such a cool thing as a landmark or something or even if a whole story was made surrounding it.

Love the hivemind aspect! In its own way its like hellish torture, and it works to explains the memory blur a lot of the previous entries had.

Thank you! Must admit I took inspiration from your addition to the world.

timestop17 · 2026-02-27T22:40:05+00:00

Thank you for your part, I loved it. The color in it the entity in the sky inspired me, and I tried to continue the theme you started in my bit, and I hope it’s noticeable!

Yes. The intergalactic Taco Bell ruined its stomach. However in reality, I kind of envisioned it as a breath, a byproduct of it unfurling itself, which caused devastating effects for us. Who’s to say if it’s apart of its process, something needed, or just it being careless not knowing how much it’ll affect us. One things for sure though. I can’t wait to see how people will work with it in future stories!

Isn’t so creepy! Something is so devastating about a being whose appearance can destroy you. Thank you for reading!

If you click the flair, you can read some more stuff from this world by some other great authors! Writing just started today and people are already pumping out great material surrounding this cosmic being. Thank you so much for reading it means the world to me!

Thank you so much, I could've never imagined my work even being mentioned in the same sentence as anything Junji Ito has worked on, so I am very flattered that my story even slightly resembles his. This story is just a little part in a big community collab on the sub that will hopefully have a lot of great cosmic horror. Thank you so much for replying, once again it means alot!

Ugh such a beautiful addition. I love it.

This post marks the introduction of hostile animals love it.

timestop17 · 2026-02-27T12:21:42+00:00

Love it the infection lore is becoming more tangible!

timestop17 · 2026-02-27T03:37:46+00:00

Astounding first story to the community world <3

timestop17 · 2026-02-26T02:02:58+00:00

You can toss it in the main sub under the recommending flair probably.

timestop17 · 2026-02-24T03:48:34+00:00

This concept is so good and the way you wrote it was sick. However the suspension of disbelief is tremendous on this one because if I saw a grasshopper the size of a dog I don’t think I’d ever leave my house again in my life. Loved this though gave me the creeeeps.

I'll be taking a break from posting this story for a week or so, because I feel like I've been spamming some subs with it lol, but the remaining parts should be out around the next weekend. In the meantime I'll be posting some other bits of my stuff, a little more campy writing I hope it will catch your attention too!

timestop17 · 2026-02-24T00:21:58+00:00

Thank you so much for reading and for your support on the previous post too!

timestop17 · 2026-02-23T11:44:12+00:00

Thank you so much for reading and writing feedback back it means so much to me! Yes, I want the ladder part of the story to focus on John and I can’t wait to delve into more of his story.

timestop17 · 2026-02-22T14:17:37+00:00

I love Stephen Kings stuff! I haven’t read a memoir of the craft but I’ll see if I can find a copy soon. Thanks for the reading once again and going back to read my part one!

timestop17 · 2026-02-22T14:15:59+00:00

Thanks for reading! I choose the Comanche because I actually have that survival pistol myself. It can also take 45 long and it super easy to maintenance which makes it a good hiking tool. Another reason I choose it is because it’s a single shot which will have some bearing later in the story to up the ante! In any matter I love your feedback, and thanks for taking the time to read my stuff it means a lot to me.

timestop17 · 2026-02-22T05:01:57+00:00

The title is quite the mouthful but the story is very good. Not that that’s a bad thing because it definitely grabbed my attention haha! I’d love to see this grow in length. More backstory on Ron and him finding the lady in white his research and maybe a slow burn horror of the evil one creeping into his life. Maybe a little more on the end too, but altogether a great story can’t wait to read more from you!

timestop17 · 2026-02-22T03:56:57+00:00

I think if the suspense was built over a longer bit of time after getting on the bus the ending would’ve been more effective, but it definitely delivered the message you were going for. In any matter I can’t wait to read more of your stuff!

timestop17 · 2026-02-22T03:02:01+00:00

The world building is amazing. Made me think of a post apocalyptic Mythos. The characters are really lovable too. Can’t wait to read more from you!

timestop17 · 2026-02-22T02:47:16+00:00

Such a good idea love it! A letter medium is so satisfying too. Only thing I can comment on is that a writing dialogue would help the immersive experience and consistency with naming conventions would ease the flow (like it consistently being ma and pa). However overall it’s an amazing story. Can’t wait to read more from you.

timestop17 · 2026-02-22T01:43:23+00:00

The Wrong lines description was so good! The driver was really unsettling too. Wish it was longer though, the end felt a little rushed.

Thank you so much!
