The Sounds of Serenity
Serenity, a massive coastal city straddling the Serene river. First time visitors can easily find themselves lost in the winding alleyways and tall buildings. Airships come and go all hours of the day and night, as do fishing boats and trading ships on the ocean. The...
Rise and shine? Lukah snorted a small laugh to himself as the man pounded on his door and moved on. He'd already been awake. His previous life before the Brotherhood had him accustomed to rising just before dawn. Although he tended to remain in his room, laptop on his lap, earbuds in his ears...
Well, technically he was a gang member but there was no way in hell J was just going to tell them that.
"Gang members? Are you high?" Maybe they all were and just happened to gather here. Although, that wouldn't explain why he was here. He withdrew his hands from his pockets as he moved to...
What a stupid dream.
"The stupider idea, is you going to the place." Jamieson sometimes had this habit of talking to himself or his pet. Generally his albino fire-ferret.
His boots clicked over the footpath as he walked, slouched slightly to mask his height, the redhead was tense and...
Some girl jostled in front of the redhead and he almost got hit by the stupid pack on her back, he scowled a moment as it wooshed by him but he was feeling guarded right now, this whole situation was more than crazy. The Avatar was just a storytale told to kids to keep them in line, he knew, his...
Only when the group was started to be led away from where the growing number of people lingered, did J follow. He hung to the back of the group, listening and trying to not be -too- on edge. Although it was hard, especially since these people seemed to know about his dream. Well, their dream? He...
Gabriel stood straight backed, the sunlight causing his black horn to shimmer slightly where he stood. His white hair was tousled by the slight wind that blew through Worming Square and with every glance at each person gathered here, he found it hard to not judge them. Such was the mentality of...
Why the hell was he even going to this place he'd seen in his dream? After all, all they were were vivid hallucinations one had while sleeping. Was it boredom? Curiosity? Both? Work had been quiet of late as it was, a few of his co-workers were currently behind bars and J was lucky he wasn't...

Rumours had been spreading throughout the world, most of them circulating amongst those who skulked in the shadows of the Underworld. The secret pubs, the black market. Those that tread their quiet path of anarchy would soon be abuzz wanting to know more about something important...
So now the town square was quiet again. An uneasy peace had settled in the air as the quiet sounds of those in mourning faded quickly. The four bodies had been accounted for, the Ala'theen man's was on his way back to his homeland for burial. The black-winged man on the roof was gone as well...
His ears were ringing from the shouting and what was worse, B had been knocked down by the surging crowd and was being stepped on. Feet clumsily trampled his limbs and torso, his wings were twisted uncomfortably beneath his body as they were rubbed roughly against the damp cobblestones. His...
Not being noticed was totally okay by him. The hooded teen had slunk down against the wall to sit on the floor, legs tucked beneath him as he knelt and lent his back against the wall. He could see a few people from his spot but their names kept escaping him. After a few minutes of quietly...
The water had gone cold finally and his fingers were getting pruny. With a little defeated huff, Ben turned off the water and stepped from the shower to grab one of the thick, fluffy towels that hung to one side of the bathroom nearby. He toweled off quickly and tugged his clothing back on...
Saturday Morning: 10 AW (After War), 5th day of Fall. Ironfair and Tarina.
A loud, ear piercing screech echoed through the cool morning air of the capitals of Ironfair and Tarina. This sound was new and caused anyone who was already out of bed to slam their hands over their ears and stop what...
He'd finally found the toilet and shortly after that, the shower. His clothes were in a pile, they badly needed a wash as well but there was nothing to dry them in this room. Steam filled the large, tiled room as the redhead stood beneath the hot streaming water, a feeling he'd missed terribly...
Assuming he was mostly unnoticed now that some of them were tending to the wounded and others were taking the time to rest, Ben took the quieter time to do the one thing he often did. Explore. He hadn't been in a home this lavish since... before he was Burdened. This was a more modern home to...
With all the talking and goings on with the group reunited, Ben started to feel anxious and spotting a nearby couch, moved over and laid Jeremy down on it before he dropped the guy. His arms were aching a little hand he shuffled to stand out of the way, still hidden beneath his clothing...
(Works for me!)
Most of Ben's concentration was on carrying the unconscious guy who was, in this current state, heavy and the longer the trip to their destination took the heavier he seemed to be getting. It wasn't like he could speak up and ask for help, or tell someone else to take him off...
