Wilt (7831) She was floating, aimless and lost. A distantly familiar sensation, something she’d felt maybe once or twice before. There’s a sense of elation, emptiness. Her hands grabbed starlight and her lungs filled with cosmos. She danced across the void, a lonesome waltz that neither...

Post Petram (4212) The first day after the ceasefire, Micali spent damn-near all of it resting. No meeting with her fellows, no leaving her room. Between the wounds she sustained during the battle for Flumen Petram and her nearly week-long journey beforehand, she was just about done with...

Opprobrium (3536) “...a...couch?” “Yeah, if you tilt your head my way-“ “You’re losing it.” The warm breeze carried dandelion seeds over their sights, the far-passing of clouds that rare kind of fast that only happened on windy days. A breath in held a kiss of the fragrance of spring, and...

Hard Sights (3648) POP POP POP POP POP - TING! “Dammit.” “You need to take a break?” “No, no, I can get this. Let me go set them up again, we still have enough rounds for another few tries.” The voice trailed off as distance was already gained. Micali watched Rosa surge forward...

Devils to Demons (3328) “Order up for table three,” Magno near-shouted above the bustle of the bar. “Got it,” came the resolute call from Rosa, whose arms were already full of trays of drinks and various seedy bar foods. She hurriedly ran from one table to the next, then to the back counter...

Clay Yet Unmoulded (6545) “This one’s from that thing in the woods, right?” “Yeah. That thing bit me good, huh?” “And...” a scaled arm slid across tan, scarred skin, moving in constellations. “This one?” “That one...was…” she sighed. Her eyes shut, and the hand that traced the lines between...

Stained Glass Scoundrel (5245) Rifles were impersonal. They were made to kill instantly from afar, removed and compartmental. A sniper had to look, eyes inerrant and morality tempered, knowing they were taking a life. But even the most wrathful marksman felt some measure of relief that their...

Amanta (2631) Micali sat upon the bed in her room of Amanta’s inn. Well, to be more accurate, it was more of a hostel, and there only was one room. Rosa and her had checked in with minimal issue, just surprise from the face of the man who ran the place - apparently they were a bit early yet...

Alluvion (1808) Rosa, she thought, as steady footfalls churned up sand, then dirt, then water. Rosa. Flumen Petram was overrun, she knew that, she did. But she also knew that she only had rations for another day or two, and going back to Lacus Lectulo through the desert wasn’t an option, so...

??; Deadliest Catch (9224) It was darkness that first greeted Micali. She was floating, drifting, sinking within it. It was a calm place, peaceful, free from the burdens of existence. No quests for vengeance vowed, no faded memories of a shamefully acknowledged begotten burden. No pain, no...
