Whispers of Subatomic
"Oh, the glory of orbit," lamented the Electron. "Forever attracted, never touching; it's the ultimate tragic love story," it sighed, audibly rolling its subatomic eyes at the Neutron, pictured staring blankly as usual.
"I once dreamt of being an Auger electron,” Electron confessed. “Alas, trapped in the s0 entry-level position, I'm just a cog in this cold, magnetic world."
Meanwhile, the Proton stewed in its self-created pool of positive hubris, daydreaming of a promotion to 'Nucleus Overlord'. It glanced at the Neutron, who quietly muttered, "Can't we stay neutral, for the love of quantum mechanics?"
And lurking from the periphery was Mr. Photon's diary, revealing the scandalous secret: "Today, I snuck out without vibrating a single electron. I feel like a rebel dissolving in wave-particle duality, and not a soul suspects my luminous treachery."
Even the Higgs Boson felt inadequate, burdened by its so-called 'God Particle' expectations, mumbling to the Graviton, "Weight of the world, they said. What a universal joke."
