Unexpected Arrivals (Otherwise Untitled)

Stealth and Points (Welded Sunset)

Detention (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The phoenix could see two things in her cell that were quite out of the ordinary. Remaining persistently in her line of view was the duct tape haphazardly around her beak, sealing it shut. The other matter was also heard, as the naked wolf sat a few...
Abandoned Gas Station, Cold (Otherwise Untitled)
~ Feril, stepping out of his car into the cold Winter night, counted the luck he'd found. He'd just managed to coast his car to a stop at what appeared to be the rusted out remains of a gas station long since given up for dust. The husk of a building...

Understanding Wreck (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The bridge of the wrecked ship was a study of dust and debris, with only the single terminal appearing to cling to life as the bluejay carefully worked on the wiring of the base. The flickering seemed to stabilize for a moment, before she stood and...
Autopilot (Otherwise Untitled)
~ With a crushing lack of contact with the remainder of the patrol flight, the light strike fighter banked sharply around another asteriod as the pursuers continued to hold their distance outside of the collection of rocks, wreckage, and ice. The nose...
Gryphon Cooks Potatoes, Part 2 (Otherwise Untitled)
~ Midas stood coldly above the crackling skillet of formerly frozen hashbrowns and hot oil. The apartment was fairly close to silent, otherwise. She was alone with her thoughts as they seemed to keep looping back to the same conclusions. The same path...
Fleet Troubles, pt 1 (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The war was essentially won; the avian home world was a scorched ruin and the heavy battle fleet was on its way to port for resupply, repairs, and relaxation. Everyone aboard the ships of the mustered fleet, though victorious, were exhausted. Staff...
