Dinner Mimicry (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The fennec bounced up and down along the kitchen counters, from step stool to floor to stool. Another pair of toast slices onto the plate and fresh bread replacing. Whaah-chunk, more on the way. Her attentions were scattered amongst the formation of...
Warm Seat in a Cold Storm (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The storm blazed a trail of ice and wind across the sky, sheets of water unrelenting as the regular flash of lightning scrambled between clouds and thunder. Below the night's glimmer stretched a long toss of road through the largely idle fields of...
Clarity of Purpose (Welded Sunset)
~ Well above the discrete happenings of the base camp below, the broad winged eagle mech carefully balanced atop a fresh thermal updraft while waiting for the final phase of calibrations to conclude. His attentions, lazily darting about over the camp's...
Saddle's Watch (Welded Sunset)
~ The lynx gazed into the campfire, and the pair of pots settled in atop the rack over it. The evening was, thus far, a calm one beneath the trees and stars. The saddle assembly rested against the trunk of a tree with its soft croon of some old banjo...
Rattling Van's Trip (Otherwise Untitled)
~ Linda shifted position in the driver's seat of the old van, gazing out wide into the horizon under the noon-time sun. He couldn't see any other cars out along the lonely stretch of road, only the scrubby plants and meager grasses that sought to...
Downed Prey (Welded Sunset)

~ The sun was advancing day towards evening, "That was a great museum! I really liked the exibit on those spectacular stones!", the Synth explained to the lynx. ~ "I'm glad you came to visit!", the lynx strolling alongside her friend. "Oh! Oh! The bus...
Seconds Hand (Otherwise Untitled)
~ Under a sky that blazed across its width with arcs of lightening, the deer lost his footing in one of the dashes between the trees of the forest. As he skidded through the sluiced mud and gravel, his eyes again caught sight of the lights he'd hoped...
Trowel, and Despair (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The fox gazed out at the shrunken plants and dying leaves of his garden. Some portions were as though a desert, the others a swamp. All had too much or to little water; nothing had successfully grown. ~ His attention turned to the trowel in his...
Trip Planning Diner (Otherwise Untitled)
~ Beth sunk back into the comfort of the diner's bench seating, nodding along to Harold's reckoning on which highways to take over the mountains. "Uh huh.", the possum's eyes on the kobold's plate, "Yeah", looking back up to Harold. Her attentions were...
Tick tock at the Station (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The raven looked up from his watch with a soft whine. He couldn't remember if he had planned to be early, or if the badger had planned to be late.
