Darling should not have made the journey. That’s what they said. Let’s face it, a pregnant mother at an all-women wilderness conference was a little out of the norm. “Good for you!” one of the ladies said, “I never would have ventured this far away from the city when I was six months pregnant!” in a way that sliced her down as quickly as it raised her.

The crickets were loud in the grass but Oakley hadn’t caught one. The humming and buzzing dry grass end of summer, one last camping trip, this time lakeside.

Welcome to Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Nestled slightly to the north on supernaturally stunning Vancouver Island is Saanich, Victoria’s sleepy sister burb.

Cashie slipped on her headphones. She closed her eyes and pressed her inky lips together. She wore Palomino by Bite, a bold fuschia lip stain, to help her stay in character. She clicked the Audio Porn app and a green light circled her avatar. Cashie scanned the online participants and selected one with a smile. Ethan Hawke. My mom used to crush on you.

You should practice on an orange. People say that it works as a proxy for human injections, but it’s almost exactly like injecting a horse. A horse’s skin is just that little bit thicker. Practice on an orange a lot.
