    suits (this one was a matte black, it would be invisible in the night sky) appeared out of a panel in the wall and assembled itself around him as he stood holding Loki’s gaze, smiling slightly. “Stand behind me, put your arms around my neck,” Tony instructed. Loki did, and a moment later they were flying. Tony was flying slower than usual, since he had an unarmored companion on his back, but still they were whipping through the sky, almost silently around the mostly-quiet, mostly-dark…

    “The Haunting of Hill House” by Shirley Jackson presents many interesting characters. The one character in particular that caught my attention most was the protagonist of the novel, Eleanor Vance. Eleanor was a thirty-two adult with a child like personality. She tried to establish herself throughout the book and tried her best to impress and fit in where she could. Eleanor Vance had a rather strange personality in my opinion. She tended to act childish all the time but I can understand her…

Though over a century has passed since the Modernist period, the struggle for gender equality is still a very real, ongoing battle. Progress has been made, however.

At the end of the hallway, past the sawdust smelling workshop and decorative art room, lies a room with a broken door that scrapes the ground. But behind that door,lies the wondrous robotics room.

    Ernest Hemingway’s “Hills Like White Elephants” is a short story that only uses barbed dialogue to characterize a extremely tense conversation between a American man and his girlfriend, a young women named Jig. The story opens in a untraditional manner with no background, no indication of the characters emotions, and substantially seems to have no purpose. Hemingway himself gives the impression of utter detachment from the characters. He places the reader in a position as if they are listening…
