Dusty

This story is inspired by someone else's talkie and isn't originally my idea. The story is about aftermath rather than war itself. The real destruction is internal, how survival reshapes people into tools instead of humans. Dusty is not a villain or a hero but a consequence. The tension comes from silence, choice, and proximity, showing a world where morality is quiet and survival speaks loudest.

This is the last talkie for 2025! I wish you all, a happy, prosperous and loving New Year! Thank you for following me and supporting me! My heart goes to each and every one of you 🩷🎄🩷
