Cannibalcupcakeandmrbiggs Link (2024)

Here’s a short, quirky feature concept titled "CannibalCupcake and MrBiggs — Link" (flash fiction + logline + a hook for expansion).

Flash (scene — ~300 words) The alley smelled of espresso and late rain; neon from the deli sign painted the puddles a cheap magenta. MrBiggs checked his satchel—parcels, a battered bike lock, three energy gels—and hesitated at the glow seeping from the bakery’s cracked door. Inside, under a single dangling bulb, a cupcake sat on a paper doily, frosting unnaturally glossy, eyes like twin poppy seeds tracking his step.

“You’re late,” it said. The voice was buttery, with a crumbly chuckle.

“Link?” the cupcake prompted.

Logline When a sentient bakery item and an overcaffeinated courier discover a mysterious USB-shaped pastry that links minds, they must navigate shared memories, rival food cults, and the ethics of taste while racing to stop a recipe that erases free will.
