It was a beautiful sunny October afternoon on the campus of the Pensacola University in Florida. Eduardo was a young man half Portuguese and half Polish. He was shorter than average with the shoulders of a swimmer. His auburn hair was longish and he had a stud in his nose and a ring in his lip. He was a pre-med student, and he was in class studying anatomy a...
Nate had just finished his shower at the Y when he dressed and walked out into a darkened hall. Weird, he thought. The Y is supposed to be open for another couple hours. He walked toward a glowing red EXIT sign, looking down hallways for any other people. No one. It was his routine to go to the Y around 10pm for a swim. Nate was having girl problems - hi...
Corporal Job frowned as he watched the update on the vidscreen mounted to the wall of the general's private quarters. The news from the Kuiper asteroid belt wasn't good, as usual. The Drinkers had developed a new weapons array, as usual. Many lives had been lost in the initial assault near Neptune, as usual. But scientists were busy at work on new defense st...
"Your tits will only take you so far," he barked. The balding dean grumbled as he leaned back in his cooshy chair. She had been afraid of this. "We try not to traffic in rumors, but the sheer volume of chatter concerning your exploits Lily, well..." It was the worst fear, the worst fear of any Fae: She was in trouble for having sex. Lily gulped audibly, alr...
Mike lay on the high ridge under an outcropping of broken rock. He watched a patrol move through the jumble of broken rock below him. He could tell these were not highly trained troops. They were sloppy in all aspects of their search. They should be easy to evade if necessary. Unless they stumbled on something by accident they should not effect the mission....
I sometimes think that the most unexpected thing in life is the unexpected. I mean, when your life has gone along uneventfully for many years you don’t expect to suddenly find yourself faced with a whole new situation. For those interested, my name is Arianrhod, the name choice of Welsh parents who probably had no idea what my fellow students at school woul...
Chapter 8 -- the purpose of intercourse Autumn had come and it was no longer so warm in the garden. Even Gary was finding himself dressed most days in the garden; his visits to Zoe's or her visits to him curtailed. It was one thing to be mutually masturbating in the sunshine: rather another to be on a bed together. The latter seemed rather more what lovers...
"Alright, I'm in. Looks like he's reading that manifest. I'll take him out, get the manifest and then leave." whispered Sonya to Johnny as she slowly crept along the wall in Kano's chamber. "No! We still need him as someone who we can use against Outworld." "Not happening babe, he's going down." replied Sonya and turned off all comms. Meanwhile, Kano was...
It's been a long night. After weeks of mismatched scheduling and general laziness, Harry and the gang finally found the time to get together, drink themselves to inebriated stupor, and sing themselves hoarse on the karaoke. University days are through. No more mindless droning inside the lab waiting for decoctions to drip out of the Soxhlet extractor. No m...
* An immediate and unexpected inspiration hit me when I read the announcement for the 2020 750 word project, a challenge to write a story in exactly 750 words (according to Libreoffice Writer, and the two separators are not counted). Unable to resist, I began writing at once with a song that fit the mood and actually had some room to spare. Splitting the tw...
