    "So, what's new in bird-town?" Elena asked. "Besides the outbreak on the lower decks?" Elena winced. "That bad?" she asked. Harper nodded. "We've been working twelve hour shifts nearly every night for the last week." Even for a workaholic like Harper, Elena knew her brother must've...

    "Bloody hell, do we have to do everything for them?" Elena kicked the bucket across the room and stomped her hoof, red touching her pallid cheeks. "Don't you just love our friends down in maintenance?" Across the way, seated at the desk she'd claimed for the nigh, Asalee scribbled away at...

    "Great Gears! Look at the size of that one!" "Keep your head down, you idiot!" "What's your malfunction, ghostie?" Henry tore his eyes from the hulking form of the Sentinel some ways off in the thicket, glaring sidelong at the albino crouched beside him. "Call me that again and I'm rotting...

    Charles leaned against the rail, listening to the rain and thunder as he often did when it stormed. The usual sounds of the bustling town were quiet now, most people sheltering in from the warm and wet downpour. "Going to be out here all night, old man?" Charles looked back. Topaz stood at...

    Tariel moved down the hallway with the slowness of a glacier. He made sure his hooves went exactly where he intended them, knowing what awaited him if he made even a single misstep. He was sure he looked strange to the casual observer: the way he took a step, paused, considered his surroundings...

    Tariel stared into the depths of the foul-smelling puddle. "This what you were talking about?" Asalee nodded. "Yep; prime specimin, too." "It's just some water mixed with oil - how the hes is this supposed to be dangerous?" "Never been topside much, have you?" Tariel winced. "A few...

    Tariel eased his way down the narrow corridor, taking care where his hooves went. To the casual observer it must've looked like the young man was playing a game of some sort - the way he would take a step, pause, take another step and repeat, sometimes in a different direction than before. But...

    Tariel frowned and opened his eyes just enough to peek around the room. Lit by only the usual candles he kept burning on his desk, his single-occupant abode was otherwise bathed in a sea of shadow. Years of living with the long nights made his low-light vision better than his ancestors, so he...

    ...emerged from shadows of the niche with the quickness, closing the distance to him in seconds. James barely had time to register the fact he was under attack before the air was filled with a sickly-sweet smell that clung to the back of his throat when he gasped in shock. He tried and failed to...

    ...as it turned out, dealing with it was much harder than expected. Dhalia just hit the ground when the flash of green burned the top layer of rust and moss away from the machine she'd hauled herself over. Quick on her feet, the ratkin scuttled her way down the length of the inert metal...

    ...hoof and recoiled almost immediately, horrified at the burp that was issued forth from the steaming muck. "No doubt about it," Tariel groused. "Corpse Soup - probably too many bodies in this one little plot over the years." Behind him, the gathered physickers-in-training exchanted glanced...

    ...and forth he went, his pace never once slowing despite the frequent pivots he made on the balls of his feet.

    ...at the papers before him with complete befuddlement. "You can't be serious." Across from him, the vicar -- his face obscured by the cowl that swallowed his head and horns both -- grinned once more. For James, the pointed teeth of the boy-chimera were unsettling in kind words. He was a...

    ...frowned at the flickering display before his eyes. Even with the damage he'd sustained from the grocery store encounter, there was no way his in-house chrome was this faulty.
