Wanted to take a moment to apologize for my absence. Some things came up which have kept me away. My creative brain is suffering a bit, but I'm hoping to jump back into writing slowly but surely. Thanks for your patience!
Seven. Seven what? That at ease feeling started to turn into a prickle in the back of her mind. Perhaps she may have been a little too optimistic about believing Avik was not involved in illegal activities after all. The way he spoke about no one noticing the seven mystery items missing sounded...
A good lie? We'll work on it?
Her eye twitched in response, but before any words could follow there was another form joining them. A shallow sigh of relief left her when her widened gaze did not recognize the man - which probably was a strange thought to cross her mind being a young woman out...
Really sorry for the delay on my end as well, y'all. One of my puppers has been really ill and it's been a really rough week! Hopefully that quick post works!
So the Earth had an expiration date?
Twenty years. That was a few years over how long she'd been alive. Longer than she'd been hidden away and living the life under her sister's identity. She wasn't sure how to feel about any of this, really.
Marcus, on the other hand, seemed to have quite the...
"No, I do say," Gemmalia insisted, gaze lifting to peer at him behind the mug. Oh, had she said too much? Here she was, only a few hours out and she already had nearly gotten caught right off the bat, and now she was spilling her guts to a random stranger. Yes, this was going well.
She could...
Purraldo stayed beneath the cloak for Gemmalia's sake, but didn't shy away from the man's eyeline. "Yes. And no." She repeated herself pointedly, though also did not press the matter as he moved on.
She squirmed slightly under his gaze as she realized he was sizing her up, getting the sense...
A part of her desperately wanted to look over her shoulder to see if her pursuer had been quick to follow her, but it'd probably be her luck that she'd turn at just the right time to give way her position. So instead, she situated herself in the seat to appear as if she'd been comfortably here...
Bright, eager eyes full of naiveté bounced left and right as Gemmalia Varadise made her way through the busy marketplace. The rushing and bustling of passersby did not deter her in the slightest, only adding to the thrill of being in surroundings she had only ever seen from afar. She made space...
Manners. That was new. Unexpected.
“You should learn from them.”
Clearing her throat to shake away her sister from her mind, Maddison lifted her gaze to meet the woman who'd been kind enough to speak to her. “Percy,” she repeated, voice hoarse with morning grogginess. “No-oh-” she stammered...
Fingers cradled the tray of food in front of her as if it were a security blanket. She hated being late to mealtimes, group sessions, and all the fun activities within these walls. Being early made it easier to secure a position in one of the corners and listen in if and when you wanted. Being...
It was a beautiful rhythm between the three of them that they had to maintain for the dive to go smoothly. Like a delicate ballet that needed to be sped up to a salsa, you might not think it would have worked out. And yet Kolya, Nayla, and herself were managing to do so. It may not have looked...

Luz merely nodded in response to Kolya’s thanks. She was afraid of what else might spill out if she tried to speak. There were only questions that were racing around in the back of her mind, and she couldn’t risk getting distracted by them or having her vision clouded with tears. Not now. They...
It all happened so fast.
There was a gentle and intentional plop of a luggage bag descending down from above. It was followed shortly by a second, but it was the rapping of guns being fired up on the dock that stirred Luz. The third bag came tumbling down with a resounding clang and it was then...
