Striped (And Stained)
There was a hyena who lived on the outskirts of a big city, all alone - except for the other hyena that lived with him. The two weren't brothers, or cousins, or related in any way: in fact, one was a sort of 'owner' while the other, a feral hyena (if...
Untamed Grass, Untamed Heart
"Levi Jansen, African Dogs, log number three. It's amazing how you never really realize how huge the ocean is until you're flying over it for half a day. It's like... like unrolling a huge spool of blue felt fabric, with each of the stray little...
Lust's Half-Brother
Anna could remember the first time she'd seen her half-brother, Rick, naked. They were both pups at that time, thirteen and fifteen, just at the age where they'd overreact to that sort of thing, with shock and feigned disgust as a veil over a deeper...
Hare-Raising [Commission]
Anthony had always been mocked for the size of what he had between his legs, since the second day of gym class (and only the second because dressing out hadn't been required on the first) - and for a reason quite opposite to what he'd expected. In...
Dragged Through the Mud [Commission]
There was a smallish fox just on his way back from a wine tasting out in the country when he realized that he didn't have any money on him for a cab or the bus, the former of which he'd taken out here - since none of his friends had been willing to...
I Would Rather
I may have mentioned before that I have a certain dingo friend who's into some of the same things that I am. These shared interests weren't what brought us together - no; in fact, it's a wonder that we're still as close as we are, since our...
Wild Temptation [Trade]
There was a hyena who lived alone on the corner of Sherry and Tomson Streets, close enough to the bustle of the big city that he could hear it clearly at night, but he'd lived there long enough to be able to ignore it. It wasn't only the noises of the...
The Fox From Vault 97 (Fallout)
Companionship in the Wasteland is hard to find, like a good, intact suit of power armor: when you get your hands on it, you hold onto it, you take care of it. People tend to mock it and make fun of it, especially the more brazen ones - "shit, I don't...
Dogsat
Whenever anyone in my little group of friends has a party, it's never a big affair like you hear about in the news or in college dorm horror stories - usually it's the same five or six people gathering at anyone's house and pretty much doing the same...
Blue
The war of the heart can never be decidedly won. I remember when it all started. My father was King of a land called Pekka, a place bordered on the north and west by high mountain ranges flowing with as much metal as fresh water. I was his prince,...
A Rare Occurrence
It was a misty morning, the sort where the sunlight that streamed in through the treetops ended up being muddled and dispersed by the heavy cloud of fog hanging in the air and thus serving little to illuminate much of anything directly. Nothing had...
Yes, Ma'am
I won't say that I've had the best of luck with cops, but... I certainly won't say that I've had the worst. I guess the best of luck would be never having to deal with one in a one-on-one situation, but, as good as you are in school, that never seems...
