Of Mice and Dragons
"Alright, Selendro." Jevin grins a little, looking around for the dragon. "I know you're around here somewhere and it's high time you see what a giant wolf looks like!" He taps his toes over the floor for a moment, hoping to jar the tiny dragon...
Roommates
"I thought you said you'd be busy today," Kwandry states, walking into his apartment with Startide following closely behind. "Well I did," Startide responds, smiling a little and slinking over to the red panda before wrapping his arms around and...
Chapter 15 - Growing Up
**--Naki--** In the past, whenever I felt I couldn't handle issues at home, I'd go to the pool. There was this public indoor pool my parents would let me go to before I had the one at high school. It's not always empty or quiet but noise doesn't...
Treading Chapter 8 - Registration
**--Naki--** Fen and I don't talk as much for a few days. When I do manage to get him on the phone, our conversations are short and they don't flow as well as they did in previous weeks. I notice he's more agitated, especially on the topic of...
Micro Rights
Journal entry #150 Reed "the red fox" Rogers. Micro Rights I didn't believe that the notion of "Micro Rights" was anything that could ever be taken seriously when I was younger. Where I grew up, we were pests, vermin, pets, toys, food-- anything...
Treading Chapter 4 - Championship
**--Fen--** That last weekend was the longest I'd ever experienced. I couldn't motivate myself to do much more than mull over what'd happened on Friday. What's weird is I couldn't figure out just why it bothered me so much. I'd already accepted that...
Treading Chapter 3 - Introspection

Treading Chapter 2 - Rumors
**--Fen--** "Naki Pelwisk? Really?" Sian looks up from the greasy-looking slice of pizza settled on his plate. "He offered to help you swim? Just like that?" The raccoon chuckles, shaking his head. "Lucky~, he's got a nice rear on'em I bet." ...
Treading Chapter 6 - Prom
**-Naki - Monday-** Seniors have no school on Monday in order to prepare for prom, and it is a busy day. Motley and Samson are going to meet me there after I drop Fen and Sian off. I've been so busy that I don't even know who Samson or Motley are...
Treading Chapter 12 - Problems Afoot
**--Fen--** My first class is General College Physics I., which will hopefully be more exciting than the name implies. It's in a lecture hall across from the one where my orientation class is held every Thursday and my professor is thankfully not...
Treading Chapter 9 - Requoran Neotrian
**--Naki--** "And what were you doing that was so important that you didn't -call- to tell us that you wouldn't be home? You had us worried sick, Naki!" mom says, keeping her voice just below shouting levels. I try to keep a straight face but I'm...
Treading Chapter 5 - Prom date
Treading Chapter 5 - Prom date **--Fen--** "There's no telling what they'll do," I say quickly, messing with the food on my plate at the dinner table. My mother and father sit across from me, seeming equally uncertain about the situation. "If...
