Chelle had been looking for a while - long enough to have checked under the dusty loveseat, and through the fronds of long-dead plants, and behind books (a few of which she would love to have taken for herself had they not smelled as if moisture had gotten to them first). Whatever it was that she had seen didn’t seem to have made it to the library, and after no affirmations from Finch or Bryony, she was starting to doubt whether she had seen anything at all. ...

So, this was perhaps more than Chelle had bargained for. The cabin that loomed before them seemed alive, as decrepit as it was, its blinds creaking on their hinges without a breeze. As she took in the building, she could swear that the empty windows weren’t quite so empty a moment before her gaze focussed on any one of them. “Charming…”  “Isn’t it just?” Bryo...

“I do… suppose this place has some charm.” Chelle padded forward slowly, allowing herself to take in the dark but surprisingly cozy atmosphere of the hub. “I was hoping it would, considering how far we traveled to get here.” The circles under her eyes stood out in spite of the dark velvety fur that covered the entirety of her body in contrast to the stained glass. It was only for the promise of another dense and isolated forest that Chelle had even agr...

So, this wasn’t quite what Sundae had in mind when his brothers said they should take a trip to the beach. He was imagining a towel, an umbrella, sunglasses that matched his pastel (slightly impractical) outfit and likely a fruity, iced drink in his paw.  Red was not his color, decidedly.  And the drink he hoped to have would have to wait, because apparently no hands we...

Alba had no idea how she got herself into this situation. Well, that wasn’t entirely true. She knew exactly how she got to this situation, but had no idea what inspired her captain to suggest joining the summer games in the first place. The Grimoire hardly ever came to shore, especially for somethin...

Virgil didn’t remember the last time he had left the Mythic forest. He felt the most comfortable under a lush canopy, walking through dappled grasses and wildflowers, accompanied by the sounds of animals scurrying through the undergrowth or hopping between branches. This, decidedly, was not the mythic forest. His large paws sunk into t...

As soon as Avalon and Calliope made it to the scene of the commotion, they both worked to get a glimpse around the other kebs who had gathered, some of which were dancing around oddly with their attention drawn to the ground. “What is going-” a furious croaking sound cut Avalon off and the crowd parted as many of the onlookers stepped back. “Oh…?” Avalon was half way into...

Calliope stayed close to Avalon’s side, following the knight’s lead as the crowd reacted to Light Song’s appearance and then as she listened intently to his hypothesis as to where the blade was, feeling a twinge of hope that it was, indeed, still close by in the Mythic Forest. Calliope then watched as the crowd started to split up, knights and other volunteers banding together, many gesturing over and calling names familiar to them. Everything seemed to be...

Avalon ran a paw through her mane, pushing it out of her face and away from the frown that pulled at her lips. No matter how many times she read the letter that arrived unexpectedly, she couldn’t believe that Light Song’s sword had gone missing. Not that she believed that someone wouldn’t be capable of taking it, but that someone would try to do so in the first place, and with enough planning that no one saw it being taken. Never mind why someone would wan...

“Dads, come onnnnn!” Howl whined, running loops around Rowan and Yuki who were chatting softly between themselves, arms linked. “We’re coming, we’re coming.” Rowan reassured softly, catching Howl mid-circle to re-tighten the wool bandana around his neck and finish zipping up the young keb’s coat.  As soon as he was released, Howl was racing back down the hill towards...

Faye curled up, warmed by the still-crackling fire and the homemade blanket that had been gifted to her upon her arrival late the evening before. While normally an early-riser, Faye’s journey to the Frozen Ruins was a tad longer than expected, marked by a wrong turn leading to a couple hour detour - one couldn’t blame her, having gotten lost in the secondary adventure she was running through in her head, trying to identify plot holes in the novel she was wri...

“Oh… Lightsong… I don’t think I’m made for hiking.” Anatoly groaned, their wings dragging beside them through the thin blanket of snow, the rest of their posture so low it nearly had their body drooping into the snow entirely.  Westley chuckled, sweeping his tail over to knock some of the snow off of Anatoly’s shoulders. “Do I have to remind you, that the first time I found you, you were enthusiastica...

Considering how dark it was out, the sparkles and colors that started to edge into Whisper’s vision should have been their biggest concern, however the glow now backlighting the bushes before them was even brighter. And, as the stars in their own scary story - of which Whisper didn’t read many (any) but knew the way of things- of course a chilling mist started to curl around the siblings’ feet....

Maybe cookies were too low a bar to have agreed to this adventure.  While Morph and Otto enthusiastically checked behind every bush, leaping towards every snapping twig (could you imagine?!), Whisper remained in the middle of the path as far away as possible to the dense undergrowth, holding the flashlight close to his heart. While the light was a comfort (he had convinced Otto to let him take have it instead), it wa...

Otto and Morph have had a lot of bad ideas in their lives, but this had to make the top of the list… well… maybe top three. Whisper shivered at the thought of number one and two.  “N-no… no no no absolutely not.” Whisper squeaked, leaning away from Morph who all too eagerly worked on slipping a camera around the ghostly keb’s neck.  “Where’s your sense of ...

“That was pretty impressive, Sparkles. Didn’t get a hit in, but you lasted longer than I expected you to and weren’t half bad for a moment there.” Nausicaa looked over at Requiem with an amused expression to which he scrunched his nose and raised a brow.  “I told you I was a brawler in the past to make ends meet. I obviously was good enough that I was able to actually make said ends meet. I could do without...
