Secret Handshake

Another selection of shorter stories from pw_contest, which I enjoy participating in. I don't even generally care for contests (since I'm not really that competitive), but it's very chill and friendly, and I would recommend joining for those who have any interest. And the word count limits get me to write things that are actually brief. It's amazing!

Two of these stories are loving brother stories, and the other one is about friendship. How predictable.
