The #mountains of Viridius 5 are not mountains at all. They’re the shells of a colossal species of arthropod similar to Terran hermit crabs. This is how the colony ship Void Master was lost. Well, not lost; just inhabited in a way the colonists hadn’t exactly planned on. #vss365 #microfiction

#LitHodgepodge 2 Who doesn’t love a good crossover moment? Imagine your story’s cast of characters got sucked into a TV show or film. What comes to mind as a world where they’d mesh well? Or one where they’d wreak (delightful) havoc? #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WriteSky

An October Prompt Game of Miscellaneous Proportions

FRIDAY FLIGHTS OF FANCY

[Graphic of a winged angel holding a book]

Prompt:
2 | The cast of your book got sucked into the screen! In which show or film would they feel most at home? Or which one would be most entertaining to see them in?

[Graphic of a talking crow]
Personally, I wouldn’t mind joining the cast of “What We Do in the Shadows.” Guillermo would take excellent care of me, Colin and I would have much to discuss, and I do believe I’ve a solid plan to steal Laszlo’s witch-skin hat.

Join tomorrow for Saturday Snap Judgments!

#WIPSnips Part 5! Even while wounded, Val can fight :3 #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Down the hallway, Prime fired all the way. They had done better at conserving ammunition – had had this rifle stashed as a contingency, had hoped they wouldn’t have to use it – and two mags kept the guards at bay until they were able to disappear down the stairs. Echo led, one shot left (really hoping he wouldn’t have to resort to hand-to-hand combat), calm and collected despite the lack.

‘We got a ride?’ Prime asked.

‘Negative,’ Echo replied. ‘Our best bet is the Lab – there are two entrances nearby.’

‘Lead on.’

Echo poked his head out, checking the courtyard for hostiles, as Prime watched the staircase and the main entrance.

That meant their attention was split when the heavy dropped from the upper floor.

He’d intended to squash Prime, but their proximity to the mark made that difficult. So he’d drawn his knife and plunged it down, screaming, giving Prime enough warning to sidestep the initial attack. Their hook came up to parry his knife and they twisted their arm as it locked against the blade, spinning it from his grip; undeterred, the heavy punched at their wound.

‘Prime!’ Echo cried, turning and pointing his gun.

‘I got this!’ Prime replied. They grunted as the heavy landed a hit on their injured shoulder, but they drove a kick at his knee in return. The mark flinched and whimpered at each hit, seeing nothing, hearing only the assault.

Finally Prime got some distance. Not much, but enough; they let the mark take their weight and landed a bunny kick high against the heavy’s chest, knocking his head into the wall hard enough to leave a dent. He crumpled, and Prime got to their feet, dragging the mark up with them.

#WIPSnips Dent, notch, what's the difference? This is right when Clara starts realizing things are weird.

Then, after a hesitation, she crossed to the easel and dragged the back of her thumbnail against the frame beside the altered door, leaving a shallow notch in the wood. A mark. Proof. If it shifted again, she wanted to know exactly where.

The Vascular Normalization Window in Anti-VEGF Therapy I am sharing a figure intended to communicate the transient nature of vascular normalization. #TumorAngiogenesis #VascularNormalization #AntiVEGF #TumorMicroenvironment #Pericytes #TumorVasculature #AntiangiogenicTherapy #CancerBiology

$The Vascular Normalization Window in Anti-VEGF Therapy I am sharing a figure intended to communicate the transient nature of vascular normalization during anti-angiogenic treatment, a concept that continues to shape dosing and combination strategy discussions. I want to emphasize at the outset that the underlying data are simulated; the curves are constructed to reproduce trends reported across the preclinical and clinical literature rather than to present novel measurements. The plot is a temporal contour band plot rendering two opposing envelopes against time following VEGF pathway blockade. The first envelope tracks pericyte coverage of the tumor microvasculature, expressed as fractional NG2/PDGFRβ-positive perivascular investment, which rises as VEGF withdrawal reduces the destabilizing pressure on nascent endothelium. The second envelope tracks microvessel density, which declines as immature, poorly perfused vessels regress. The shaded intersection identifies the normalization window, the interval during which pericyte recruitment and basement membrane maturation restore a more physiologically competent vascular phenotype before pruning progresses toward frank hypovascularity. Within this window the figure annotates the functional correlates that motivate combination scheduling: reduced interstitial fluid pressure, attenuated hypoxia, improved oxygen and drug delivery, and partial restoration of endothelial barrier integrity. The band widths encode illustrative uncertainty, reflecting the heterogeneity in window timing and duration observed across tumor models and dosing regimens. The mechanistic argument the figure supports is that therapeutic benefit from normalization is inherently self-limiting. Sustained or excessive VEGF inhibition drives the system past the window into a hypoxic, treatment-resistant state, whereas appropriately timed cytotoxic or immunotherapeutic delivery may exploit the transient perfusion gain.$
