The first chapter is good. I wouldn't say it's a masterpiece or something but it was interesting to read and worth the time (like, ten minutes).
On the other side, I couldn't even finish the second story, just, no thanks.

The first chapter is amazingly done and has an more serious tone
The second is just the comedy with an stupid MC lol

I went into the second story thinking it would be awful from the comments but it was actually quite cute and funny, and I loved the dynamics between the FL and the ML (you can kinda see why the title is what it is, but in a more lighthearted way).

That being said, it definitely did not benefit from being placed after the first story. I don't think it was "weaker" or worst than the first story, but they're both very different genres, and the ending of the first story made going into the second one kind of...weird considering the huge shift from gothic tragedy to high school supernatural romcom. I think they should be read separately rather than together because the second one definitely falls tone-deaf after the ending of the first story, but I digress.
