Tony Blair's package finally arrived. It was an old genie style lamp he had bid for on eBay. After a few days he had won the bidding - at an amazingly low price. The seller had seemed a bit shady, but it had arrived as promised. When he unpacked it, the lamp was about like the picture - dusty and in need of a little cleaning; it was also surprisingly heavy....
It was the start of a three-day holiday weekend, late Friday afternoon. With many people already gone, the nicely furnished and equipped exercise room of the apartment complex was empty except for one man who was moving weights. Don rented a small one bedroom apartment but its size was ample for a single divorced man whose work required him to travel often....
Matt was woken up the next morning by the sound of his alarm clock, telling him it was time for him to get up for school. Matt groaned, and rolled over to look at his clock. "Master, do you wish me to end that noise? I would seem to be annoying you." Matt sat up, and saw Lumiosa sat down on the chair. "Uh...sure," he replied, and the alarm noise immediatel...
It took Clara a couple of seconds to get her bearings as she stood on the small sandy beach on the edge of the lake. The early morning light was still quite dim and Clara suspected that the sun had not quite risen yet. Even if it had, they would still be in the shadow of the large mountain looming just east of them. "Ah, nuts!" Jeff complained, grabbing Cla...

Becca reached over and turned down the wick on the old lamp. She ran her fingers over the warm base and slipped her hand over each individual flower that had been etched into its beautiful red glass. The power had just returned and the lamp was no longer needed. A sigh escaped her lips and she tilted her head to the side as she picked up the antique object a...
I am a 30 year old single lonely male. I haven't dated nor been in a relationship in 5 years. My last girlfriend left me for a man whom I had thought was a friend. It was difficult because the relationship lasted for 6 years. My ex and me dated since high school. It explains why I haven't dated as a result of that or gone to social events involving women....
Jerusalem, 1195 AD. In a tavern, an English traveller in his early 30s was waiting for a man to arrive with a delivery. Something for which he'd searched for over a decade. Something which, if his contact had been successful, was going to change his life forever. "Another ale, my friend," he said, flicking a coin in the direction of the bartender. "You're...
Shortly after re-materialising inside the lamp chamber, Clara realised that she had been re-dressed in the pink harem costume. She let out an irritated sigh and wasted no time in calling on her magic to change her apparel into a white blouse and track pants. After quickly looking her new outfit over, she walked over to the volume of Zhiasa's journal that she...
The day after their date, they stayed inside, not bothering to put on clothes while Aiden introduced Jen to his favorite hobby: anime. She seemed particularly drawn to the ones involving magical girls and they spent the day watching seasons with love making sessions in between. Another night together, and too soon his alarm was reminding him that it was Mo...
