Tail - Chapter 10
I'm nervous. The conversation seems too momentous to begin. There's so much that needs to be said. It feels like standing at the foot of a great mountain and being told to climb it without any prior planning. We don't talk on the way to his...
Dusk - 3
**Date: CT2-5875/11/16** I woke up determined. I wasn't always this death-chasing headcase. I wasn't always mopey and depressed and down on just about everything. I felt that way at times, sure, but plenty of people did. Serrah's Dusk had...
Razed - Chapter 8
"_Crazy world, get it where you fit in_ _Choose how to roll, the dough there for the picking_ _Switch up, you're stuck, telegraphing how you're living_ _It's all about me, all about you"_ **King Geedorah,** ' **Krazy World'** My naked,...
Real Time
Outside it’s bright, there’s a gentle breeze blowing through the trees, it’s warm and dry. It’s a nice day, for England. For England, it’s a nice day. Below, people run around on their day-to-days doing whatever it is that they do. Tails still or...
Airplane
I wave and he waves and then I'm gone, and so is he. I can't help but feel he's taken my old life with him. The time that passes between last catching sight of him and getting on the airplane is entirely immaterial. It happens at me, not to me, nor...
HIGH INTENSITY
_a short story by Marthell_ * * * The bullet **EX** carves a hole clean through his head. Shouting and screaming and alarms all around. Smoke and fire and gunshots and _ATTENTION_ moreshouting and **CU** crying and more screaming. None of this makes...
Ribbon - Chapter 7
**Memory 8** I'd seen a lot less of Cecil since that evening. I couldn't admit to him why things hadn't gone as planned. I couldn't tell him what was on my mind. Of course I couldn't. It would be the same as admitting that, even after everything he...
Razed - Chapter 16
“_Something about you makes me feel hectic"_ **E^ST,** ' **Talk Deep'** “Surprise!" Eve throws her arms wide as I approach, a massive grin blooming across her face. While I was expecting her and hoping for Feather - who would...
I stop typing.
_This is a story I'm writing for you. Yes, you._ _Reading and writing are simply two more words for conversation. You read to talk to a person you've never met and you write so that you can get the thoughts rattling around your head out there to...
Ribbon - Chapter 6
**Moment 3** We hit the liquor harder than we thought. I'm sloppy and soft, melting all over him, in rapid decay like an ice sculpture outside on a hot day. I'm drenching him in me, of course I am, why wouldn't I be? In this instant he is my home...
Ribbon - Chapter 9
**Memory 10** Take this as warning, or at least precaution, the inside of my head has not been a pleasant place to be as of late. I've been brooding; my mind has transmuted minutiae to monologue again and again. Everything seemed to matter more than...
Ribbon - Chapter 2
**Memory 4** Final year. Exam season. It all happened so quickly. I'd added Bluebird back on Furbook a few months prior. He accepted, which surprised me, pleasantly. He was doing alright. He had some office job, wasn't looking to go back into...
