"Bill?" Come the agitated voice from behind the canvas. Even as Ron's solemn, shining face parted the fabric, his words seemed miles away. Was that pain on his brow? The heat turned everything clotted and sour. Delilah pulled her long, blonde hair to rest over her shoulder, starting to braid it...

From what Delilah had heard, Canary Creek was starch-blank yellow at the beginning of summer. It seethed like the underside of an iron. The locals shifted about under cover of shade, skittering like insects in the patches of bare sunlight. Hair was wet beneath the brims of hats, and the women...

"A man who desires revenge should dig two graves." ( A Midwestern RP between @Rhaine and @Svadilfari )

Daniel, It is late. Unforgivably late into the night, and I cannot get back to sleep. If I said it was you I was dreaming of, would that shock you? Only, Danny, it was so real. Like I had crossed miles in my nightclothes, and found myself among the smoke and the grey and the fire. I could hear...

My Bell, It has been so long since your last letter. A month, though it felt like an age. When it came in the post, I could breathe again! I ran to my room and cast back all the curtains. The sun was not out, but I could still feel it on my face from behind the clouds. Oh, Bell, I did not even...

Daniel, I'm sorry if this letter is finding you unwelcome. It would be all right if you would rather not hear from me - if the reasons as to why were too complicated to define. I would understand, only you would have to say so, or else I fear I will send you so many desperate pages that you...

Splendid Bell, No, I haven't made progress on your scarf. I couldn't knit my way out of a tea cozy. In fact, I loathe it excessively, and you should know that it is only out of great esteem for you that I keep returning to it. I torture myself for you and you alone. Does that please you? Now...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Val hadn't meant to frighten her. He hadn't meant to allow his own fear to swallow him, to take him below into its depths and force him to shift, to change. He gently shook his head, startled to see the fear in her face, in the tide of her eyes. A few...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox "No." It had been the answer he was hoping for, and yet there was no real change in him. Though that may have been the best outcome possible, even prolonged, stagnant tension managed to look somewhat manic over Val's sharp features. He knew that the...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Val watched her steadily, his thick brow drawing, quite confused with Diane's reaction to his name. Valley? Not quite. He shook his head relatively stiffly, his left hand still grasping the ring that hung from around his neck. "No - I'm n-not kidding...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Diane Val stared unabashedly. He had a name to the face now, and it was a perfectly normal, perfectly respectable sort of name. It threatened to stir memories, lazy afternoons with his grandmother as she read stories, mythology, and he dug his small...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Val was lost in thought for a moment, or in fact, he was always lost in thought and it was the moments of engagement and awareness that were scattered between - reefs blooming up in the sea. He thought he heard a sound, a high-pitched, still sort of...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Val's dark eyes widened slightly with her question. "Am I... ?" The weight of it laid out over his shoulders, demure and imposing at once. He didn't know why it struck him so. Certainly, in a forest where there dwelled beasts and spirits beyond count...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Val stared at the girl, hands still raised - whether it was defensively or reassuringly, he wasn't sure. She looked up at him, and he caught a shred of consternation in her gaze, before her eyes dropped to the ground. The thought of stooping in order to...

☽Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☾ @HuntedFox Val was embraced by the current. It was slow, but steady. It didn't drag or catch. Its hands were soft. Its salt was almost sweet. The breath of winter clung to the crest of the foam. He was soaked through - right to the bone. It was carrying him...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Val didn't have much time to react - to speak, to think, or do much of anything. Yet, once more, the moment stretched by as if it were several. She had heard him. That was something. His own recognition of the fact worked its way through his chest...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox Val stood as straight as a needle, his left hand still clasped around the ring resting against his collarbone. He fought the strong urge to close his eyes. He didn't want to see the creature that was indisputably heading his way, that had most...

☼Ulysse Valentin Brisbois☼ @HuntedFox As what light managed to reach him began to draw low, close and tight in sparse patches through the underbrush, something in Val's chest rose to attention. He shivered. There was sudden clarity to his dark eyes that had previously been dull. Lucidness...

This RP takes place in a realm inhabited by those who have passed on, yet have not reached absolution. Not all met a peaceful transcendence. They linger in their own personal cages, falling into traps they set for themselves. Even in this redundancy, there is potential for deliverance. This...
