One last cup of coffee with the therapist
Kenneth was nervous, but he'd been worse during the past few days. It was cold in the terrace of the café where he was sitting. Heavy rain had been hitting the whole country in the last weeks, and even though it wasn't raining right now, the weather...
Bats of a feather (commission for Nyeogmi)
"Will you please stand still? You're making this too difficult and I'm not that patient." Tynan grunted, making an effort to keep his muzzle slightly open as he stood in the middle of the hallway, wings spread at his back as if he was about to take...
It feels a bit like sleeping
"Is this how I'm supposed to hold it? I don't think it should be doing that." Mark frowned as he tried to keep the pocketwatch from spinning around. The shark had seen other people do it hundreds of times in TV shows and comics, but he'd never...
test.sav
[Waiting for connection] [Link: established.] [Recording: initiated] complete waste of time. Uh what? Testing testing testing oh my god. Oh my god I can't believe it's working. Is the thingy is it even placed correctly? I think so. Yeah. If...
Zonktober 2022 - 2. Pocketwatch
"I'm telling you, that's bullshit! There's no way that can work on me!" Xavier scoffed. As a professional stage hypnotist, the large gator was used to hearing those sentences quite frequently, with slight variations from time to time. In his...
The Sorcerer's Apprentice (commission for Kingpanther)
"I'm telling you. The materials you're requesting are way beyond your level. They can't just be used by anybody. We don't work like that in this place." "And I'm telling you, I don't care. I have a high-skill certificate issued by the Archmage himself...
Pet, pet, pet
"Imagine a dog." Pet... Pet... Pet... Cody had been gone long before the request came. Imagining things was easy when in autopilot mode. Normally, the process was like building a campfire - easy for some, difficult for most, requiring a...
Zonktober 2022 - 9. Visor
Dabble was familiar with visors, of course. He had fallen victim to one or two in the past and the experience had been pretty satisfying to say the least. That meant he knew what to expect when the thin screen carefully placed in front of his...
The yeen and the pocketwatch - 1. A skeptic's way
"I'm telling you, that's bullshit! There's no way that can work on me!" Xavier scoffed. As a professional stage hypnotist, the large gator was used to hearing those sentences quite frequently, with slight variations from time to time. In his...
The yeen and the pocketwatch - 5. A forced habit
It took Slate a long time to break through the mists of trance and become aware of his surroundings once again. When the familiar fuzziness began fading from his thoughts and they started moving at their usual – albeit somewhat slower – speed,...
Seeking advice (commission for BuffBuck)
The lights in the locker room had been in need of change for a long time. Not because they were old. They had been placed there not so long ago and belonged to that group of modern, eco-friendly light bulbs that could easily endure years and years of...
Color theory (commission for Dabelette and Flarfanafle)
"Do you... Do you see anything yet?" The noivern's voice faded quickly in the silent room, as he squinted and tried to distinguish the transparent, slightly purplish visor that they had put on their heads. The room in which he and his braixen friend...
