Lineup Changes
It was a few days later that Kimmit pulled me aside after practice. He'd spoken privately with me once or twice since he'd made me captain, mostly just to get my impressions on how the team was doing. Whenever he split the team up to run different...
Basic Sponsorship
"Why didn't you show up yesterday?" I'm not sure what surprised me more: the fact that Catherine was at the court before I was, or the fact that she seemed to be offended about something. Normally I could only get her to crack by hinting that I was...
The Chronicles of the Knights: 3
She screeched as the fire tail lizard shrike back slightly.
Questions of Leadership
I think the next day was the only time in my life I've ever wished for slush. I wanted there to be a storm, a frigging deluge of ice and rain. Anything that would keep everybody but Catherine away. When I stepped out of school, though, it was sunny....
Control
The provincial finals, in an act of ultimate cruelty, took place the weekend before exams that year. Following our dominating victory at the Vancouver citywide tournament, Kimmit had given us a very short break; one week during which we only had...
First story

A disastrous discovery
Thoron and shrike, their eyes strangely unfocused, suddenly swooped in the way of the dragonlord, their wings spread wide, blocking his path and even his view, beating at the dragonlord's head with their wings.
Breaking point
"shrike!" materializing from the ether, kaon's personal long blade , a semi sentient vorpal sword, blossomed in his grasp.
Two Player Drills
One of the weirdest things about Vancouver in the winter is how big of a difference altitude makes. You could be walking down a hill through big, fluffy flakes of snow, and find yourself in heavy pelting rain by the time you reach the bottom. The snow...
Gil & Max - Meeting (1/3)
At the community center, he met the center's two administrators, a couple of shrikes, in a small office. younger than the old rabbit, both avians wore blue plaid shirts and jeans, their chubby, short bodies so alike one could mistake them for siblings.
