Hi everyone, and Happy Wednes-yay!

Apologies for the radio silence on my end this past week - I was transitioning hospital teams and, as always, there's the initial adjustment period šŸ˜… Here's this week's updates/posting schedule:

"How To Boil A Lobster" - A Short Snippet

A serving of ruthless! Grey - enjoy!

You've been in many unenviable positions before. 

Hell, no one wants to be an intern - making the list, changing wound vacs, retracting for hours on end while the senior resident gets to actually cut. But right now, you know for a fact that you're glad you're not Xavier Price. 

See, Xavier Price committed one of the cardinal sins of surgery: pissing off the scrub nurse. And, not just any scrub nurse, b...

Hi everyone, and Happy Sun-yay!

As the weather gets colder (and the first snow fall looms 😬), I hope you enjoyed Dr. Sloan's snippet yesterday. Nothing better than falling ass first but having a beautiful lady pick you right up, am I right? Here's this week's updates/post schedule:

"In Which You Really Should've Taken an Uber" - A Short Snippet

So, you made a mistake. 

...Maybe more than a mistake. 

And now - well, you might lose your life...or at least a toe. 

You knew winter in Danton would be unforgiving. Endless feet of snow, wind that cuts right to the bone. So why did you decide - on this day, in the middle of January - to save money on an Uber and walk to Ivy's house after work?

You flex your fingers in your coat pockets - they feel so stiff (frozen, your mind unhelpful...

Hi everyone, and Happy Mon-yay!

As you all may or may not know, I have COVID. But, during my quarantine I've managed to get some writing done - namely, starting on Case Three! Here are this week's updates:

> Case Three: Chapter One is a go! Just a heads-up, this will be a story-driven chapter so you won't see the kind of bite-your-fingernails choices that you've seen in prior chapters. Maybe for some of you, that's a relief?

Would you like a Patreon-exclusive Discord?

Would you like a Citadel Discord only for Patrons (it would be available for $5 tier and up)? That way you can discuss sneak peeks/short snippets/etc. without worrying about spoilers for non-Patrons. Let me know what you think!

"November" - A Short Snippet

Vic's POV

It's been a long fucking year. 

June.

July.

August.

Then a blur. No - that's not quite right. A willful deletion. You don't like to think about it, so you can't think about it. And, yeah, your therapist would love to unpack that one, but right now? You're okay with leaving that black box untouched. 

You watch flakes of snow melt against the window. Funny how fast time passes - it was summer, then fall, and now the begin...

Hi everyone, and Happy Sun-yay!

To be quite honest, I've been on a really punishing stretch of hospital work so it's been difficult finding time to work on Citadel, from coding the next chapter to writing short snippets. On my single day off per week (hello six day work week 😭) I'm usually just trying to catch up with domestic tasks and to rest up for the next week on the wards. 

I just wanted to thank all of you for your patience and your patronage - I'm still in...

"Wellness Break" - A Short Snippet

You've figured out that there are two types of people: those who put on gloves before scooping out their pumpkins and those who just go in raw. 

As your co-interns start carving out their pumpkins, you sneak a peek at everyone's progress. Xiao, predictably, has gone all in - pulling out goopy fistfuls of pumpkin seeds with a "I fucking hate this" look on his face. Riley, on the other hand, is just pulling on his gloves, looking at Xiao with visible disdain. 

And you? You...

"Enough Time" - A Short Snippet

It is on the fifth loop when you realize that maybe you aren’t meant to save them.

At first, it’s a fleeting thought. After all, you have to save them. There has to be a way. There’s no way the universe would trap you in a time loop with no out…right?

But, as the deaths add up, as you learn—or, worse, see—that MC has died yet again, it really makes a person wonder what kind of cosmic joke this is, what kind of lesson you’re suppose...

"Two-Faced" - A Short Snippet

Based on the prompt, "Stuck in the elevator with Dr. Grey."

You and elevators don't have a great relationship. 

Your first week of medical school--trapped in an elevator with eight of your classmates. Just last month--stuck in an elevator with Vic (in your pajamas, no less). And now, now--because this is a running theme, a cruel joke--you're in a jammed elevator with one Dr. Peter Grey. 

You hear him sigh, watch as he calmly presses the "call" but...
