Pitch Episode 14: The Minor
So I couldn't bind the spell, so what? What mattered most was my relationship with BJ. Something new-formed where our friendship should have been. If we couldn't be allies, we had to be enemies. That's not how I wanted things to be, but she seemed...
Pitch Episode 13: Mama's Boy
We were out looking for Russell. Initially, we planned to spend 4 weeks at the festival, but by the third week, we had enough. The novelty of being in a place with so much weed smoke, alcohol, and sex was wearing down. It got old having to fight...
Pitch Episode 38: Boys Club
My Tuesday night should not have been anywhere near as eventful as the one I had. Attempting to convince Velmer and his very naked girlfriend to have calmer heads was proving to be impossible. "The Ring is supposed to help in situations like these,...
Pitch Episode 37: Drums
Never underestimate the power of collective hate. It brings people together just as quickly, if not faster than love. When people find a common problem, there's almost nothing capable of stopping them from coming together. But when you add that hate to...
Pitch Episode 36: Love in Hate
Matt laid out many concerns. He never needed help unpacking. It was an excuse to get me alone so we could talk. He was blunt. Joining The Ring came with more than just benefits. And then he made Wes and I finish unpacking the last of his stuff. Matt...
M.Knight
Becoming a Knight was never easy, but it was always my dream. Most knights were born into families of nobility. I was born in a gutter. Most knights trained from a young age to fight and become leaders. I learned how to survive. Even when a squire...
Pitch Episode 35: Closer
Matthew Knight was a hybrid. He was a half-man half-monkey. It was funny finding him, myself, and Wes in the same place at once. No one highlighted the coincidence, though. Wes and I spent our entire day unpacking boxes at the monkey's cabin in the...

Becoming a Knight was never easy, but it was always my dream. Most knights were born into families of nobility. I was born in a gutter. Most knights trained from a young age to fight and become leaders. I learned how to survive. Even when a squire...
Pitch Episode 33: Outside
I could have slept in for once. I finally had a Saturday all to myself. Dad was at work. Mom was off doing something I'd likely have to worry about later. Even Danger was spending the Weekend away with Beth at some sort of Magician meet and greet. I...
Pitch Episode 32: Hurt
I was still alive. A few days later, back at school, I was able to look back on my night of being hunted as just another stroke of bad luck. "I don't know. The roof caved in, I got myself free, and then I ran home. But the next day I woke up and she...
Pitch Episode 31: Reliant
I couldn't call my parents because humans weren't allowed to know about Ring business. I couldn't call Wes because I was still mad at him for making our sex life school news. I couldn't call Velmer because he didn't like taking on Ring requests. I only...
Pitch Episode 30: Black Sky
It wasn't the kind of party I expected. There were so many older people. I should have known what I was walking into the moment I had to put on a tux. I guess I was more optimistic than usual. It was the Mayor's birthday, not a bonfire. The party...
