*crackles,
I offer these three predictions as an Intrig catching glimpses of The Flow.
Capsuleer forces will join the ground conflict in Chosen Systems before it is over.
Intriguerre will turn to playful communion with the dwellers of Anoikis to face Ancient Enemy Azdaja
Warclone fireteams will board derelict stations, Drifter hives, and untouchable titans alike.”

Okay.

If this works for the Prose category, please add it to my submissions.
You don’t start that many businesses and get them off-world, and amass hundreds of ships, in so few decades… without pulling off some things for some people who pay. That is a big part of what my father has been doing in our part of the cluster. He couldn’t always get the shiniest stuff, but he met some people who appreciated his services.
After ~30 years of businesses doing well for my father, and after the years it took to raise me during the latter part of that, he felt it was time to send…

I don’t know if I can submit this for the contest, as a portion of it is vocabulary invented and copied from another post, but if it is acceptable and not considered plagiarism then I hope it is to your liking. I organized the vocabulary better, starting with categories and then often alphabetizing it within each category. I also explained a connection between the languages of Athra/Amarr and Soliara, and did my best to translate the Holder oath, word for word.
Preface:
The following vocabulary is predominantly based on modifications (such as syllable/s flipping) of Romani words (that language being a development from ancient Indian, Persian, Greek, Slavic, and other European languages), as well some words from Latin and various Semitic languages (such as Arabic, Hebrew, and Yiddish). Basically it is a language which astronauts from the Middle East and its surrounding lands formed over thousands of years. It has influences and hints from most of the…

To live, to see, to stand, to claim;
This is the way of the Holder.
I am a person who rises.

Looking over this thread again, I noticed that in the basic information section the fourth category is named “News/Gossip/Opinion Pieces” yet in the story listing this category is titled “Gossip/News”… Which is it? My submission is not gossip or news. I submitted it as an “Opinion Piece” because it is meant as an insight as to my opinion on the current widespread mindset of capsuleers. However, every other entry so far in this category is about recent events or conspiracy gossip, which makes me think my entry doesn’t fit here.
I would like a bit of clarification on what “Opinion Piece” is supposed to mean. The current post doesn’t make that clear. If my entry is miscategorized I’d like it moved to Prose I guess. That’s the next best place it would fit.
Looks like it was just missed out in the list. I’m pretty sure it’s still opinion pieces as well.
Opinion is part of news. I updated OP to make that clear, however!
OP also updated with entries to date. Only 3 weeks or so left to enter!

Submission for the thingy.
I could only see tiny blurry white lights fading in and out of the black while I heard multiple voices echoing, “Who are you!? What are you doing here!?”. “I-I don’t…ugh. Who are…?” I hear shuffling of feet and clanging of metal as the voices moved closer. I thought to myself, “How did I get here?”
The sun slowly rose above the horizon of Duripant V; washing across the fertile land pulling back the dark cold blanket of night. My eyes opened to the sounds of hungry animals and the smell of a fre…

Mehatoor - 24th IC Station
In an unprecedented move, a capsuleer is being called on for back payments of child support after numerous attempts by the yet-unnamed capsuleer to contact the mother and child.
“He just won’t leave us alone, so I figured, why not? Maybe he does have some connection to her. I still wouldn’t leave her alone with him,” the mother told reporters outside the courtroom after the initial hearing.
The mother claims she had her memories wiped after several traumatic encount…

24TH IMPERIAL CRUSADE LOGISTIC SUPPORT, MEHATOOR VI, DEVOID
Responding to a recent legal action seeking payment of child support, infamous capsuleer Nauplius has filed a legal brief of his own demanding sole custody of the child in question. In the brief, hand delivered to the court by a TCMC-programmed slave, Nauplius claims that the child was horrifically abducted shortly after birth by noblewoman Lady Melisande Galena, who faked the baby’s death and emotionally manipulated the d…
Mehatoor - 24th IC Station
Another hearing brought us a fascinating and almost horrifying proposal from the opposing client - an offer of remarriage. When asked about this and the likelihood of acceptance, the claimant turned a vivid shade of green and had to excuse herself from the proceedings.
Miss Dadarwar indicated this was further proof of the traumatic circumstances her client found herself in while under the influence of the respondent. She went on to say that they would be doing all in…

After a thorough psychological investigation lasting several weeks, sparked by the ‘evidence’ presented by the respondent, the court has come to several medical conclusions regarding the mental state of the claimant while under the influence of the respondent.
