40 min - 'World Well Two' ft. James Moller
Anime mongrel and friend of the show James Moller drops by and Belvin refuses to leave, so we have to do four prompts for this one.

A group of rogue monk-soldiers specializing in aerial combat break away from a war that is engulfing the world to lead an independence revolt on a distant island.
Prompt words: Key. Lime. Prophecy. World War II.

38 min - 'Crabyrinth' (1986)
Not related to the film starring David Bowie, except for the swirly walls and the bulge. Content warning: animal anatomy, crab anatomy, swords with sandals, brain vore. I don't usually write the descriptions. Do people read these? Do people notice when episodes come out really, really late?
By the way, Walter has laid a tangled web of clues throughout all these descriptions, and if you can put them together and solve their riddle, it will lead you to a real world cash prize, probably! Terms and conditions apply, most likely.
Prompt words: Labyrinth. Nest. Money.

Prompt words: Wisp. Fear. Caravan.

38 min - 'The Grey Frontier'The unholy union of Walter "Vitamin K" Kunkle and Zachary "Nabokov" Chessman produces a more freeform setting than the show has had previously. In this new land, prompts are thrown aside, and the Lads get down to the nitty gritty of building a world focused around colonizing a shattered afterlife. Nautical angels, tyrant kings, and colossal tomb castles stand out in this bleak episode.Read Zach Chessman's winning flash fiction story, Foo Fighters, in Fantastic Other Magazine here: https://fantasticother.com/2020/08/31/foo-fighters-by-zach-chessman/

41 min - 'Sunlit Sails'Without Chessman's fruitless song references to distract them, the boys center themselves, tighten their headbands, and construct the best swashbuckling setting the Earth has ever seen. A large inland sea has been locked in perpetual daylight for decades, and humans, as well as most of the gods, are stumped as to what to do. Who will take the helm of the sun galleon in the sky and steer her westward once again? And what's that scheming Night God up to?Prompt words: Curse. Swashbuckling. Sunlight.

39 min - ‘Dangers in the Outfield’Times on the diamond were peaceful, until the giants came from across the sea. With them, too, came the strangely energizing and enigmatic juice, which soon covered the entirety of the known world. The fabric of human civilization itself strains under the pounding of earth-shattering feet—and the Eternal, Divine Game drags on for ceaseless millennia, spiraling society into a brutal hellscape in which only the strong (and the lucky) can hope to survive.Prompt words: Baseball. Big. Juice.
