GRAVEWATER

In the spring of 1919, something sinister is lurking in Loire Valley and Elle McIntyre is pretty sure it has a name and a seat on the city council. Her search for the truth turns deadly and will haunt Gatewood Manor for decades to come.

An image board including pictures of a lamppost in a foggy forest, a person clad in dark clothes with a mask, strands of caution tape, a house with a yellow door, a cabin in the woods, a woman peeking through a cracked door from below the doorknob, and a figure in a white hazmat and gas mask.

A quiet town is put into chaos and distrust when they awaken to find that every other house has their door painted yellow for an unknown reason.

#A #WFT #Q #MiseryPit

A moodboard featuring images of an hourglass with green sand inside, a warm acorn growing from green leaves, a blue ocean coming up against a rocky brown coast, a dark figure wearing a homburg hat and looking out to the ocean at night, a notebook with the words “learn from the past” in it, the headlights of a car at night, the outline of a wolf howling against the full moon, a city bench with the words “YOU ARE NOT ALONE” written above it, and a light up sign reading “Los Angeles” against a blue sky. All the images are set against a green sunlit forest background. The words “August OUT OF Time” are written over the front.

A moodboard with the name “Vincent August Lloyd” on it with “August” emphasized by a green square. The background image is of an hourglass against a dark background. There are little images of leaves, acorns, a hand with fingers crossed, a paintbrush, a book, and sitting figure turned away. There are two dark symbols that almost completely blend into the background of a wolf howling and a target.

The supernatural has been an open part of the world since phone cameras, especially here in LA. Yet August has no idea where his oddly specific time shifting powers came from.

When strangers gun him down in his own office, his mysterious powers become his only hope.

The city’s lousy with heroes—cape-wearing, laser-eyed, sky-flying showboats. Don’s not one of them. He’s a PI with supernaturally sketchy luck, a nose for trouble, and a trenchcoat that smells like bad decisions. Now powers are vanishing, and he might be next. #A, #SFFM, #Q, #miserypit,
