Litter's Quickening -- an IAL Aside
Litter approached the front counter of the bathhouse, which even for the tall gryphon came up to his beak, making him barely able to see over it. To his right, the scent of the pipe smoke and musk wafted from an open hallway leading inside. Behind the...
Becoming What You Wanted Pt. 2
Lilly not Lyle. Stargazer lilies blossomed in voluptuous red and pink blooms. Their luscious petals caught the eye from across the room. That's what Lilly wanted with her transition. To be seen, a vibrant pop of radiance furling outwards. She wanted...
Metal Made Malleable
"Wake up, meat." Ridley's skull pounded; pain lanced down his brow to the end of his sharp beak. His bright yellow eyes flashed open. He sat, hind legs splayed, inside some kind of containment field. Some sort of force field wrapped in shimmering blue...
A Special Kind of Tonic
Waxy blue porch lights illuminated the pair as they stumbled, laughing, from a dinged up pickup truck. Neither wore much despite the chilly temperature, having come from the heated basement of a hardcore show. Samael's ears still hurt from the shred of...
Becoming a Dancer
He turned his head and offered a shy smile, his long, forked tongue flicking out like a flirtatious wink. He probably tasted your need. The dim torchlight played off his soft green scales. Pale colors in the daylight darkening in the twist and turns of...
Prima Knocked Up
Prince Julien started when the door to his room opened. His father's silhouette took up most of the doorway. King Goliath, the Crimson Crusader, Hero of Old Tide, always made Julien insecure. The older lion had a rich, red mane that he kept loose, with...
Milking Kaimana the Crusher
Humid and hot, Kaimana appreciated summers here. Her leathery sharkskin soaked in the moisture-thickened air. She reclined on a wicker chair, looking out over a balcony into a pond that caught the last rays of twinkling sunlight. Kaimana sighed and dug...
Broken Hero, Shattered Timeline
Link fell to his knees, the wolf panting as Ganon towered over him. The great, red maned warthog was easily three times the hero's size. Link reached for his nearby sword, but Ganon grabbed his paw. The monster's beastly hand big enough to close around...
Family Secrets Pt. 2
"So... how is she?" Even over the phone, Jayla's voice carried a sultry smoke to it that took Leanna back to warm nights spent together. Leanna had texted Jayla the news about her parents, but only now finally called her to talk. She used her mother's...
Family Secrets Pt. 1
White cedar trees in every direction, that's how Leanna knew she was home. The tall, spindly things always made her imagine Earth as a porcupine--the trees its needles. But it was the smell of cedar, mixed with the scent of dirt, that really got to...
Bound Ch.10: With No Masks Between Us
The message on Chisur's phone read simply: Come to Lunelei's apartment alone. We must talk. S-- Now the dragon rode the commuter train disguised as one of the dragons he usually met Lunelei as. He was unsure how to arrive. The message came from a...
In Another Life Pt. 1
Liolyn pressed down the collar of the long coat she wore over her dress. The heavy thing, made of shed dragon scale, pushed down her tailfeathers in a rather discomforting way, but it was better than the frigid cold of Kor's Stairway. The gryphon took...
