A Binding Agreement
For those who have read my story "A Sweet Lesson," this is sort of a sequel. Some little time has passed, and Stripes (a Sonic-world based character owned by Stripes-the-Raccoon on FA, and who asked me to write this story) has become more trusting and...
A Question of Intimacy
A Question of Intimacy The knock at the door was so tentative that Graaz, rousing from his light doze on the couch, wasn't entirely sure he'd heard it. He shifted slightly, his ears pivoting to fine-tune the input, the tip of his tail flicking a...
Chip Chip, My Little Horse
