Liesa of Dusk
Dusk settled in the moors. One day, this area of haunted hills and oily fens would become Westvale, and even then, thousands of years before Ormendahl's time, demonic orgies polluted the land with black miasma and fiery sulphur. When the sun set,...
From the maze to now
All that I loved is dead. My island? Turned to ash, entombing buildings and people alike. My family? My mother's wisdom was long forgotten, my brother is remembered as a monster, I myself a lovestruck fool. My world? No...
An Alternate History For Placodonts
Placodonts were some of the most resilient groups of Triassic marine reptiles, consistently surviving minor extinction events with minimal diversity loss until the mass extinction. In one timeline, this did not happen. Instead, their diversity...
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...
Happy Birthday Murdoch
"Surprise, bitch!" everyone shouts as Murdoch walked into the room. The poor fox still has tear crusts in his fur after waiting all day for his father, mother and Holly to wish him a happy birthday, but it seems all he gave up for them was...
Homework Cuddles
2009 It was a spring afternoon, though in TJ's room it felt more like winter, much as Sydney loved. He saw snow exactly once in his life and fell in love, and hoped to one day move to the north with the love of his life. They were both laying...
Trouble in Paradise
The angel sighed. Liquid silver flowed through the Moon Sphere, a glistening ocean where solid and fluid were as inconstant as the celestial body. What was one minute white waves became metallic ice sculptures the next, guided by the careful hands...
Electromagnetic Flyers
In the Late Cretaceous a lineage of deltatheroidean metatherians developed specialised, tightly packed hairs with branching filaments, superficially similar to plumes. This permitted an unique development in vertebrate history: by extending these hairs...
Ahacte
Sydney looked at Jenna, across their lunchtable. He felt nervous; nominally friends, she had rejected any attempts in the past to be besties, and while she had less venom to say when he hooked up with TJ she still was only courteous in a...
Birth part 4: Gift
"Oh my goodness, what happened?" TJ's mom asked, half-concerned and half-amused. As the two stood i the porch, its clear by the ruffled fur and scent that they had a tryst in the car, though at least they were presentable. TJ looked pretty...
Sam x Will thingie
3 years BC (before covid): Sam scrolled down his phone. His breathing was an aerial sandpaper on his throat, his eyes waterfalls, his heart a star going into supernova. He read the message over and over again, looping himself in panic: ...
Cuddlemeister
Both Sydney ad TJ went to do some groceries. TJ's parents had insisted but they compromised by baking the cake. The list wasn't that extensive anyways: some chicken salads TJ found particularly pleasing. Humble as he was, even his birthday wasn't that...
