Piercing Alarm (Otherwise Untitled)

A Song for the Time (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The coyote held his violin by the neck with one hand while using the other to tap his comms device awake and lean it up against the violin's case on the table. Having confirmed that it was still connected and active, he settled back down into a seat...
Fizzing Legacy (Otherwise Untitled)

Cookie of Chances (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The meerkat gazed into the oven, and despaired. The baking pan, now somehow tarnished to a soft blue tint from the heat, bore a dozen objects that she'd hoped would become cookies during their time therein. ~ More than half of them were now crunched...
Chopping to Calm (Otherwise Untitled)
~ The doe's breathing came in gasps and heaves, the handle of the axe aching into her fingers. The sun hung low towards the amber glow of horizon as evening settled into the woods around her. She glared at the gnarled stump with a smouldering rage that...
