Author's Note: This is part three of a multipart story. It is recommended that you read the first two parts before this one, so you have a better understanding of what is going on. Contrary to what I said in the author's note at the beginning of part 2, this is not the final part. As I started writing this chapter, it became clear that it would take at least...
Like all the other male university science students I had fallen in love with her. Okay, honor code time: maybe not in love, but strongly in lust. That fall, about 11:15 am on my lucky mornings, she walked alone from the science and engineering buildings across the quad, not stopping to talk to anyone. She had a heart-shaped face, golden blonde hair curling...
You don't have to read this part. It's just for those of you who decide to keep track of me. There is always a certain part in writing for me where it just feels awkward to type while I'm explaining the world I'm creating. Any tips from the pros to help get rid of that feeling? First of all I know that the world didn't always have pirates but this is fic...

At least they had had their first meal together in the Great Hall, fruit and bread, as they talked that first morning, each asking a thousand questions of the other. All Regina's senses had been alive, and while she was not shy, of cou...
~ Key West, Florida... ~ Crossing his large, hairy arms over his paint-spattered, overall-covered chest, Arc asked, "You... want me, to do WHAT?" Standing in the middle of his studio, Sherry Clifford smiled winningly at the burly artist. "You heard me right," she said, stuffing her hands into the back pockets of her 501's. Scuffing the floorboards with the...

Having made up with Greg along with the lack of concern he and Hector showed about my breaking up with Alicia had eased my mind. Standing on deck watching the small island grow as we approached from about twenty miles out, I did not feel the sense of dread I had expected. My meditation was disturbed when Paul suddenly appeared at my side. "So, John, has the...
Monday came and Joy was at work. She was so emotional from what had happened over the weekend that she couldn't concentrate at all. It was getting close to Thanksgiving, so the office was having a Thanksgiving luncheon, but Joy couldn't even participate. "He won't call today, I doubt it anyway" she told herself as she sat in her office. Since Joy wears her...
Rylan was grateful for this moment to collect her thoughts. Jake had talked until the sun had come up about how he had found her and what it meant, specifically to him. She was overwhelmed. Could Jake be right about this Luna? Rylan was not religious by any means, but she had always believed in a higher power. And it did make sense to her that there would...
