Monique @starfish72.bsky.social · 2hBob and Nora hear that their favourite lunchroom is closing for the summer. The news sends a #quake through their routine. They are used to it always being open. Every Saturday, they enjoy an Italian panino of their choice. Now they must adjust and survive the summer. #vss365 071

Monique @starfish72.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Bob and Nora are shopping for groceries when a #siren sounds through the parking lot. Drivers carefully make room for a police car. Nora grabs her heart, as always, as if it somehow concerns her. Then she leans closer to Bob and wonders who they are looking for. #vss365 0186

What her grandmother called love, others might have called sin; yet it was that very sin that had given her mother life and her in return. #vss365 0274
Reposted by MoniqueJan Karlsson @jangoeswriting.bsky.social · 08/10/2026To Ilyna, #sin was more of a set of guidelines, and thievery shouldn’t be one of them. Surely it was up to her marks to take better care of their belongings? She never hurt anybody, though others had hurt her, so why should she worry what punishments the Patrons would bring down on her? #vss365 1295

Monique @starfish72.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Nora finds a folded up piece of paper in Bob's pocket. On the inside it says, "It's a #sin to look this good." She thinks this really takes the cake. Surely he can't be serious? Nora thinks he planted the note there just to give her a giggle. #vss365 1204

Monique @starfish72.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Bob talks to Nora about one of his past relationships and how she #lured him in.
