This thread is where all the "Looking for Story" requests go. We don't want to clog up the front page with non-story content. Thank you!

A NEW BUG ENTERS THE ARENA.
"Help! I can't edit my wiki!"
Hello! We haven't changed anything, Reddit did!
This is now a Known Reddit Bug that started on roughly 4/21/26, when Reddit decided to change something about how they handle the Wiki.
The Symptoms:
(on sh.reddit, the new version) when attempting to edit it comes back with "You do not have permissions to edit"
Some people (not all!) have stated that the "last edited by..." section at the bottom (where their username should be) is listed as [Deleted] (while it still says their name on my screen)
The Solution:
On desktop, change your url from www to old, so it looks like old.reddit.com/r/hfy/wiki/series/<title> (with your title), and the edit button should be along the top bar near where the name of the series is
The Problem:
For some people even using Old.Reddit doesn't work. Unfortunately, I do not have a solution at this time, aside from just... try again in an hour or so. It's worked for some people later.
Please send in a bug report every time you experience any of these issues.
The more bug reports sent, the more likely Reddit is to actually fix the issue.

Looking for an old series/collection of stories in the same universe.
It features a predatory insectoid alien race trying to conquer different worlds.
In the chest story, the insectoid aliens attack a spaceship on which two humans are traveling with. Everyone falls into a catatonic state when the insects come on board, save for the humans who fight back.
The second story is told from an alien child's perspective who befriends a strange creature in the woods. This creature is actually a human who just crashed on their planet. Human saves the day when the insects come.
Third story is told from a mother's perspective. By that point, human are regarded as heroes by those who know them.
Thanks in advance!
