Not Quite the Olympics
Sydney dropped a water bottle over his head. The noon sun was a menace, but it was worth it. So worth it. "On your marks" a jacked rabbit said, "One, two, three!" Shots were fired, and TJ joined the others in the race. The lynx was in top shape;...
Marriage
Devon sighed. Cameron was just sitting idly by. He was recovering, but his anhedonia was still severe. Just a week ago, he had given up music for good. And he avoided going out when Artie and Maria were involved. Still, he was improving. And...
A Tale of Two Steels (Lorwyn/Phyrexia)
Thus did the invaders come, tearing through the wind with marrow lights. The Aurora passed like a tide, but cut it was, and oblivious it was to them as well. Flame burst like a flaring sun, leaving ashes like burnt corpses. This happened outside...
Deteriorating
"Dad!" Chase's father barely had time to say "Hello there, champ!" before the otter collided with his dad, nuzzling deep in his embrace. "How was school today?" the older otter asked, stroking his son's face gently. "It was okay. Leo met...
A Snowy Valentine's
"Garret, look!" Stefan pointed. Garret yawned, then got out the bed and joined his lover by the window. "Godammnit, more snow?" the wolf whined, "I was hoping global warming would have made this a warm day. I'm tired of the cold." "Well,...
The Evening After
Night passed. Day passed. And TJ still felt like he was dreaming. Red and blue flashed in his mind at that horrible visage in the lake, as if the sun and moon were constantly on his eyes. He didn't scream, he didn't talk. His body...
Conspiracy Possums
"So, you agree with me on copaganda?" Mason asked. "Absolutely" Stefan nodded honestly, "Its why shit like Paw Patrol is so insidious." Garret sighed. They had met Mason when Garret (under Stefan's protests) took his yearly diagnostics to check if...
I bleed
I bleed, Both sides of my toe, The red ichor flows And you can have it all. I don’t bleed by choice, By I choose to not crust. Here, have it and be done, Drink greedily as you do. Your favours nourish me.
At Leo's House
Jenna was reading on the bus. It was a Hiromu Arakawa title filled with beefy men and busty women. Honestly it was horribly uninteresting but she didn't mind, it was better than reality. God and Satan know she could take a break from that. ...
Tempest
Oh gale storm How I feel your wrath, The wind against my skin And the rain against my hair! You pelt me with air and water While the heart rushes, While I dare you to do your worst. Great storm, Great embodiment of air, Weather's most fickle child, I...
Beguiled by Boredom
William needed to take a break. All those legal cases were getting to him, so he decided to take a pause for the day. He'd pick up the slack later. His sensitive coyote ears picked a sound from the living room. Sam was playing video games....
Todd and Cliff
"I c-could escort him to his apartment!" Todd volunteered hastily. Quite a few people at the poker table rose eyebrows, but Clifford seemed excited at the prospect, and that's all that mattered to Todd. "Splendid!" the stoat said, "I was...
