“Stealing The Mirror of Stolen Lives”
The party of five adventurers sat around a magnificent feast, laid out across a grassy knoll, about a mile from the dark bulk that the locals nicknamed Castle Nightmare. The sun had set, the Darkmoon had not yet risen, and though the sumptuous meal would have been a joyous occasion to many in the Land, an air of caution lay across the group.

Saved By Vinyl, In A Paper Sleeve
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. My mother, went undiagnosed with Bi-polar disorder for most of my formable years. So, we learned quickly, the boundaries and skills, necessary to survive the eggshell steps. Tiptoeing and dodging the triggers previously discovered. Storing this data in our command modules, for future reference. We knew, practice made perfect, so we became experts at aborting missions that might put the hopes of a good day, at risk of failure. Like astronauts, we called on the powers of anti-gravity to help us maneuver the known obstacles and keyholes necessary to prevent, screw the pooch, glitches.

Pillbury's Journey
Chapter 1 Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Space is dense and heavy with extraordinary music that is fearful, marvellous, and truly astounding. The music pervaded my mind or perhaps it was the music emanating from deep within the bowels of the ship that altered my perceptions.

Outsider: Chapter 16
Holmvé opened the door as little as she could and kept her hand on the bolt, ready to slam the door shut the minute she suspected their caller was another ‘relative’ who wanted to congratulate her good fortune. It had been truly incredible to experience over the last few weeks just how quickly word of her ‘inheritence’ had circulated Bjargtre. Suddenly family members she had never met had been at the door with all kinds of tall tales. Some of them had been amusing and others had made her blood boil. The amount of supposed ‘debts’ her long since dead parents had owed to completely strangers was nothing short of incredible.

The Talents
Danny Foxworth was the first to die. He was young, very young, and very, very inexperienced. So inexperienced, in fact, that none of us could quite understand how he’d gotten into field work—he must’ve been some officer’s cousin’s brother-in-law’s son, and been assigned to the expedition as an act of familial courtesy. He was charming, and funny, and utterly irresponsible. We weren’t surprised when he died.

Natural Magic Chapter 15
Read Chapter 14 Here After she left the table, Key went in search of Kaylee, who had waved to her as she walked by with a boy... at least, he looked like a boy--mostly. He had short black hair and a flat chest, but instead of wearing jeans, like most Faraday students, he had on a black skirt like Miriam usually wore, and multi-colored striped tights. She meekly followed them to their table. The boy saw her first and turned.
