SUB Story Week 5: Dissolution

Last week our monsters got a bit doo-lally in our #substory. For a round up of the week pop on over to our tumblr site, which uses the power of Storify to share tweets without needing twitter. Here's an even shorter summary of what happened this week (July 18 - 24):

1. Vampire confuses everyone by going off grid while setting up a new laptop - Werewolf and Zombie think she's gone AWOL like You Know Who.
2. Werewolf admits his responsibility for the art fiasco and makes up with Zombie.
3. Werewolf gets full moon madness from fleas. In the process, Vampire turns into a bat to get away and is promptly knocked out by Zombie who swats her like a fly.
4. Werewolf figures out what's happened after full moon, but can't help as panicked Zombie has made her fortress massive. Wolfie is angry again at Zombie for the whole situation.
5. Werewolf admits to needing Vamps to sort his life out for him - his 2 week deadline for finding You Know Who has expired, but he needs help.

Why can't Werewolf remain friends with Zombie - making up one minute and blaming as soon as something else goes wrong? Have Zombie and Werewolf enjoyed their time away from Vampire (like they actually wanted)? Did Zombie cope when she was left effectively in charge? Werewolf has realised he needs help, but will he survive the treatment to be given by his friends?

SUB Story Week 4: I can't believe it's not flutter

It's been another tense week for the monsters in our #substory. For a round up of the week pop on over to our tumblr site, which uses the power of Storify to share tweets without needing twitter. Here's an even shorter summary of what happened this week (July 11 - 17):

1. Not only did Vampire use Werewolf's art money to buy blood, she tries to make amends by trading the blood for an exhibition space at the Tate.
2. Vampire may be business-savvy, but she's not immune to being conned - Zombie's date, Arowane, takes revenge and we discover the Tate show is not actually going to happen.
3. Meanwhile, Werewolf is panicking and uses Zombie to make art for him. Surprisingly it doesn't go well and the new exhibition in a Scout Hut completely bombs. Everyone blames Zombie.
4. Zombie, understandably upset, decides to build a fortress to keep her friends out (and the apocalypse, should there be one of those any time soon).
5. The search for You Know Who has stalled, but Werewolf's clock is still ticking...

Can our trio ever find a way to stop arguing and blaming each other - will they get to live in harmony (or is that just unrealistic)? Vampire tries to make amends, but Werewolf can't see it - what else is his rage blinding him to? Can Zombie survive on her own, cutting herself off from her friends? With the 2 week counter rapidly coming to an end, will they find You Know Who in time?

SUB Story Week 3: Damien Hirst eat your heart out

Further monster madness this week in our #substory - the mysterious You Know Who is causing a rift without even being with our fiends.

For a round up of the week pop on over to our tumblr site, which uses the power of Storify to share tweets without needing twitter. Here's an even shorter summary of what happened this week (July 4 - 10):

1. We find out Vampire spent all of Werewolf's art earning on buying blood.
2. Vampire promptly takes herself off to negotiate a deal for profit, but Wolfie is far from happy.
3. Werewolf is tired of the arguing and puts it down to You Know Who having left.
4. Wolfie sets out an ultimatum: find You Know Who in 2 weeks or he & Zombie are off.
5. Zombie is feeling left out and put upon again, so distracts herself with squirrels.

Will Vampire try to restore her relationship with Werewolf? Can she buy her way back in to his heart through her cunning business acumen? Will they find You Know Who or will we lose Werewolf & Zombie forever? And what is Zombie going to do with all those squirrels?

SUB Story Week 2: Purple Brain, Purple Brain

The twittersodes are taking us on a twisty journey with our characters, tagged #substory. We hope you are enjoying the story, but also seeing some themes and plots starting to emerge.

For a round up of the week pop on over to our tumblr site, which uses the power of Storify to share tweets without needing twitter. Here's an even shorter summary of what happened this week (June 27-July 3):

1. Vampire tries to get the group to prepare for Greenbelt with a session at the Frank & Stein pub, but over-planning raises tensions that leave Vampire holding the drinks.
2. Zombie isn't as dumb as people thinks she is - her art site for Werewolf is a hit.
3. The profits Werewolf is making are being fought over by Zombie (who thinks they should invest in Lego) and Vampire (who thinks Zombie's ideas can't possibly work).
4. Zombie has a date with a merman (who Vampire still thinks isn't real) and it doesn't go very well.
5. With romance in the air, Werewolf gets a bit horny and Vampire turns to her native French, the language of love, to express her softer side. But still insists career comes before relationship.

What will happens with Werewolf's profits? Is Zombie better at business than Vampire? Can Zombie fall in love? Can Werewolf look for more than lust? Can Vampire be satisfied by business alone?
