Fragment: The Summoning was a Jenny Everywhere short story written by Scott Sanford in 2022. It was the third of Sanford's “Fragments” shorts, after Fragment: Frogs and Fragment: Nowhere Plan.
Contents
Plot
Sneaking around in a dark alley at night, Jenny is snuck upon by her friend Kim, who asks her what she's up to. She shows her a badly-typed flyer advertising a ritual to “SUMMUN STAAN”, explaining that she wants to make sure that the cultists don't, against all odds, succeed in summoning something dangerous. After Kim uses her mysterious abilities to help Jenny enter the empty storefront where they've set up shop, however, it becomes clear they misread the typo: while they do successfully summon the object of their worship, it's not Satan but the benign Stan.
