This week on the InMon front:
InMonster Zero attended another library book sale and contracted another boxful, including a tenth anniversary edition of William Gibson’s legendary Neuromancer, which was hiding in the mystery section.
In other news, while experts report that Benefiber is odorless, tasteless, and dissolves completely in liquid, its efficacy as a component in a battle of wits is yet to be determined. Regardless, scientists have spent the last few years building up an immunity to it.
And now for our top stories.

The Rules
There are none. Read the prompts, get inspired, write something. No word count minimum or maximum. You don’t have to include the exact prompt in your piece, and you can interpret the prompt(s) any way you like.
OR
No really; I need rules!
Okay; write 200-500 words on the prompt of your choice. You may either use the prompt as the title of your piece or work it into the body of your piece. You must complete it before 6 pm CST on the Monday following this post.
The Prompts:
MIST CONNECTIONS
UNICORN SOUP
TIN WOMAN
ONCE AND FUTURE SLAVE
TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT

Happy writing!
I went with the Wizard and Tin Woman…

It would have been so easy to go with “Once and future slave,” but I instead did “Too close for comfort.”

I did TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT. (I think it was also indirectly inspired by UNICORN SOUP.)
But I really wanted to do MIST CONNECTIONS because that’s brilliant. Oh, well. We can’t always control our ideas, can we?
