Ecstasy Behind the Forgotten

December 2022 •English

Toxic masculinity has come to a head and this story explores the consequences not just for women, but for men. The phrase "toxic masculinity" is thrown around flippantly, and its potential root causes are very rarely explored. When a person is plagued with jealousy, they are willing to do almost anything in order to acquire what they desire. Our protagonist, August, internalizes the relationship that his best friend Wren shares with his girlfriend Julia as a direct, personal attack on him and his identity. Due to the fact August is not getting the same amount of attention and affection that he is used to from Wren, he goes behind Wren's back to manipulate Julia. August's internalized turmoil triggers an out-of-body experience that then drives him to make intimidating, coerced advances toward the people he loves.

Where the Cattle Laid

April 2023 •Chinese

Inhumation is a traditional Chinese funeral custom. People believe that the dead can rest in peace only when they are buried in the earth. Otherwise, their souls will be lost and become wandering ghosts, never to reincarnate. The place where cattle laid comes from an ancient Book called Jin, which means a geomantic treasure place where people can rest in peace. In modern days, the Reform of Funeral and Interment began, and many stories of conflict with faith occurred. Old Li and the Fool’s journey took place in the autumn of the year when the burial was changed to cremation.
