"Well, isn't that a great motivator for insubordination," Asuna muttered sarcastically, face turned to watch the landscape fly by in an attempt to distract herself. Nothing seemed out of place, everything was still quiet. The outskirts of the dreaded forest didn't look nearly as threatening as...

FFXV is so very near and dear. But I'm always late to the party and then every time I do find happen to find someone, something happens irl and then I stop for a long while and then my anxious brain freaks and does it's thing and it's back to square 1. 😔

Asune had been surprised when she'd woken up, not remembering when she'd fallen asleep in the first place. It took everything she had to not fall into routine and start with breakfast and an early morning sweep to make sure everything for the shop would be ready and prepared for the day. This...

👀 HTTYD you say?

Doot?

Hmmm, what is it you're looking for exactly? I might throw my hat...

There was a stiff awkwardness as Sasuke moved out of Hanaru's bubble, turning his face away to hide the blush that overcame his features. He was desperately trying to stay composed despite having been caught red handed. He could only imagine what the old Sannin thought he was doing. He could...

"We have the usual, but Kurenai-sensei has some special training in mind for us," Kiba said, but there was a slight tone of pride in his voice. He looked around as if to make sure no one was listening in before he spoke again, voice low and eyes narrowing, "She got special permission for us to...

"Please, like you're in any shape to take me on," Sasuke rolled his eyes, "That would be like fighting against a kid who can't tie his shoes yet." He knew that was a bit of an exaggerated statement, but he was very confident in his abilities and was convinced that taking Hanaru on while she was...

It was somewhat comforting to hear that it wasn't just her old man that got up to no good. He wasn't the only one, of course, every family had its own vices and problems, "I don't mind when he's out doing his thing, as long as he just comes home, y'know?" "It just pissed me off that people...

"Blessed huh?" Sasuke said, his interest well hidden behind his nonchalant expression, "That sounds like some Castlevania shit." He didn't even know blessing weapons were a thing and who in their right mind would go around to temples to have their weapons blessed anyway? It's not like demons...

The hours blurred by as Asuna completed one monotonous task after the other. Most of her morning was filled up like this with fabricated tasks to keep her hands busy. Between doing unnecessary laundry and crunching away at figures, she tended to the counter and stray customers with blank...

Sasuke followed his father silently. He held and air of authority that wasn't easy to resist no matter how much Sasuke wanted to. There was something more though, something he couldn't place and if he didn't know any better he would have thought he saw fear in his father's eyes as they followed...

"I can't give her that much power. You know the old saying: with great power comes a great electricity bill," Asuna teased the boy back, "And I'm scared of all that power going right up to her head, y'know, and she turns into Lex Luthor or something." It was her belief, and she stood by it...

Even in the dirty back street, where red brick bones of the suburb jutted out like open wounds, the loud, drunken clamouring from the main street could still be heard. The masked youths were still in the same place they had been earlier, though squatting on the ground and playing with what...
