Catnap
The question had been plaguing her for months. She'd watched him for that long, wondering if it would ever be a good time to say anything, to approach him in the front of the house when she went to check her mail, for whatever reason. There...
Yomi: Just Another Day
A/N: based on concepts by Yomi. This is an older work, not as good as my recent ones in my opinion, and not as good as Yomi 1. _Take care of yourself._ How could he free himself? _Listen, Yomi._ He needed to get out. _Come on, listen to me: they...
Yomi: Just Another Story
A/N: Not as good as my recent work, this is from a year ago. Yomi and Shadow crouched around a campfire, its glow playing off their faces. Shadow combed through his backpack; Yomi coated his arrows with poison mixtures. "What are you doing...
Power and Pride IV: Sins of the Flesh
1. The sun winked shut on the world. Dragging its lids, not lazy, but tired, so tired and so wanting to rest for good--but it would not, no, it would crack its pupil open stare down on the little people below in just hours. Just hours to the...
Power and Pride III: In Our Blood
1. The clatter of metals and the thud of flesh rained on his ears, fresh dew in the conflict from the southlands. Around him dust fell in layers, a snow born of cannon fire and burning maegiks. The wolf dashed across the open stretch of field...
Power and Pride Chapter II: Kisses in the Dark
A/N: A slightly yiffier chapter than before; for now, the questions about the plot (such as the who and why of the murder or the identity of the resious, or what that means) will remain unanswered, so don't think it's something you're not...
Power and Pride
A/N: You know the deal, no one under eighteen. Also, this story will contain all sorts of "interests," but the main idea is writing something more of a character arc with some plot than a one-shot, but don't worry, this shouldn't be dry--nope, it's...
Indentured 2: Nightrunners
Dawn came cold, clear and early to the expansive estates of House White. From the armored spine of the Voltai mountain range to the east, to the shimmering pale golden ribbon of the Vosk river to the west, the city slept. Of the Free persons of the...
The Conquering Elf
Kest Saltham did not like the humid climate of the tropical southern islands. In fact, had this not been such a risky proposition, he would gladly have ordered another to come here. But the very nature of what he was about to attempt meant that it...
Night of the Fox
A/N: If you have comments/criticism, drop me a line at [[email protected]](/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection) with the subject YIFFSTAR. The voices in the Zeller's Megamart wove a comfortable fabric around Dodge Carson and his girlfriend...
Indentured 3: The Forge
She awoke to the glare of sunlight on her face as it reawakened the fading bruises on her cheek and jaw. Like all of her metaspecies called Homofelid Panthera, Lia's ability to recover from even extreme injury was more accelerated than that of anyone...
Indentured
Indentured Though he'd heard of Teletus, even met more than a few citizens of the Awakened Territories' largest city, Vam Rexen was seeing its walls now for the first time as the rivership he'd chartered out of the small port hamlet of Jort's Ferry...
