The World of No: A dark damp nightmare place or suburbia? That she can't quite decide which is worse may be Phoebe's biggest flaw. #questpit #A #SPEC #Q
Top, l to r: a shadowy figure in a doorway, an industrial staircase, a group of blurred figures. Middle: l to r: headlights on a foggy road, an exit sign seen through a heart-shaped window, the side of an office building in green light. Bottom: a dark forest, a hand pressing against glass, a figure in a distant doorway.

“Come on, it’ll be fun.”
I put my feet up on the coffee table and glared at Jane through cigarette smoke. She was undaunted by my complete lack of interest. “Those words have never led anywhere good.” #1stLinePit #NA #SPEC #Q

Dark Matter x The Midnight Library: Phoebe thought things were bad, until she got trapped in a nightmare, or a suburban tract home. That she can't figure out which is worse might be her biggest flaw. #YouDeservePit #A #Q #SPEC

Phoebe's life sucks. She knows it. But when she makes a creepy new friend at a diner, she had no idea how bad it could get. Now she's trapped in a nightmare, or maybe a suburban tract home, and has to figure out which one is real. Oh, and how to escape both. #BluePit #A #Q #SPEC
