Chapter 9 Saturday night, Dawn arrived at our biweekly party with Skeet, her husband, behind her. He carried a chafing dish that contained chicken in a mushroom sauce that looked delicious. I helped prepare a space on our serving table for him to set it in, and then got to shake his hand to welcome him. Skeet shook his head, "I can't believe Dawn talked me...
Nicholas watched from the top of the cliff. The moon was just starting to rise beyond the distant horizon. The gentle wind that blew up and over the edge of the escarpment had the hem of the long cloak that he wore dancing at his feet. He watched the bonfire being lit, watched as people moved off, heard the lilting sounds of ancient songs being played, th...
It was late in the afternoon, on the second day of May, and Connor had been waiting all day to get home and meet his girlfriend Nicole. Because of Nicoles subdued sex drive, Connor had to was left with a constant craving. In fact, it wasn't at all out of the ordinary for her to go days on end without any sex whatsoever.

Note: Hope you like it so far, this is my third submission on this story, chapters 7-9. Chapter 7 It was about nine in the morning on Friday, it felt strange not needing to be anywhere. I realized this would be a good time to increase my defenses, and find a way to deal with fire. I was kind of in limbo waiting for a call, and we were going after an old p...
I got a job stacking shelves at the supermarket during the Summer holidays of my second year at College. Judging by my antics and expenditure during my first year I was going to need the cash. I was 20 years old and spending nights filling shelves was hardly my idea of fun but then beggars can't be choosers, can they? Besides which, as I found out towards th...
I know that there are many of these story lines running open-ended at the moment. Be patient, because I am now sure all of these stories happen in the same universe, many at the same time. I fully expect my characters to cross from story to story in the future. I loved writing this fatass cum dumpster just as much as my soulless secretary, and I hope you...
USS Yosemite, One Year Ago: Captain Gombe wanted to be anywhere else in the universe but where he was now. Fighting Klingons. Trapped in an event horizon. Back at the Academy getting yelled at by the Superintendent. Anywhere else. Certainly his Chief Medical Officer looked like he'd join him anywhere; Dr Rabin appeared to have aged ten years since they pic...
Please take note that I know that humans, elves and orcs and nymphs and whatnot age differently, this story is in an alternate universe where all the characters age on the same scale as humans. Thank you. *** The weather outside the café was bleak and cloudy – which was no surprise in this mess of an urban tangle reeking with metropolitan pollution and mel...

There was a knock on my door at 6:43. I knew that Mark was picking me up at 7:00, and figured he would be there early. Instead, Pax was standing on my stoop. I stood, frozen for a moment then moved to shut the door in his face. I'd spent months imagining what I might say or do had he called or shown up, or had we happened into one another at some point.
