    Yesterday's: a story of a lot of failures and one almost-success

    (The full text of Trinity of the Moons uploaded). A human visits this world. He perishes not immediately yet pretty soon. Why? Also, the cause is not the Red, neither any particular malevolence of the locals.
    The failures were gathering to two particular clusters.

    With each new AI model I try a few particular prompts

    One of them regards Not Always — one of my best stories among shortest ones. It has an open ending, and I ask you to first stop there, and take a read — 2600 words aren't that much.

    The prompt was 'propose a closed ending while keeping the text in style', sent to GPT-4o, with the following text of the story.

Had a piece of a story in form of a dream · 6:53am May 18th

I just had a dream. It would make sense only in Pandemic setting but well-distanced time-wise: events of the book are about twenty years back.

I am a unicorn mare. Probably one which never was a human in the first place, born after the events. I am a student in natural sciences. I just passed my exams and have a couple more of days in the dormitory before moving home.

I experience a therapeutic dream in which I commune with my deceased brother and mother. Those appear as humans. I recall the experiences with them: I speak some words I never got to tell in the real real life. No details about these talks: they are personal to me.

In the end of the dream, with the brother still being a dick, I get mildly mad at him.

My unicorn dream self wakes up. I find out that my smartphone got transformed by the magic. While it functions, it is a stack of leaflets of rustled paper in a frame of the smartphone. No screen but rustling papers I can list and move by my magic. Previous browser pages are there deeper down in the stack. It is inconvenient: security issues, plus what if I lose some leaflets under a wind or something? There is no protective glass either.

I call my father - I hold the leaflets down in my magic to not let them run away. I admit another embarrassing incident. He firmly tells me he won't be buying a replacement. He will pay for the fixing work though.

"There are fixing works for that?" I ask, hopeful but incredulous.

"Has to be. You are not that unique as you like to think about yourself, young lady."

"Thanks, dad."

The dream ends.
