Pick an Ending

Practically a standing Challenge any more: what allusions to Edgar Allan Poe’s poems or stories can you find in this issue’s installments of Jack Alcott’s Grim Legion?
Rogers is surly enough a character to justify the ending of Clyde Andrew’s “Spacesuit Blues.” Can you think of other possible endings?
In Gary Inbinder’s “Exterminator,” what is the significance of saying Requiescat in pace in Latin rather than “Rest in peace,” in English?
Could Terry Pratchett’s lonesome character Death possibly have the personality or discretion of Yama in Hareendran Kallinkeel’s “Transcendental Meditation”?
What story plots can you devise that might follow upon James Allen Starkloff’s “Experience a Book” and Peter Gerenz’ “The Spec Hunter”?
If you were writing Saurbh Katyal’s “Nemesis,” how would you end the story?
