Traptap 1: Her Dragon
Traptap was the best at her job. As a springer, she would unset old traps so that her clan could move through areas. She was very strong, and had a big stick. It was very useful, but it got all the respect she deserved. The Dragon had said it was...
Day at the Beach
It was a nice bright day, the sun so welcoming and warm. The schools hadn't quite let out for the summer yet, and I had that swim suit from the previous year I never wore. So I went sunbathing, on the beach, with a pair of shades and a copy of "Lasers...
The Math Tutor
"So it'd be infinity, right?" I groaned, "Technically it would approach infinity from the positive, but from the negative it'd approach negative infinity. It would reach neither as it attempts to be both at the same time... and also infinity...
My Cousin Kaito
It was Christmas, and it was last time I had been around both sides of my family at once. My father had just gotten a big amazing job, and so we moved to the nicer part of the suburbs. Despite it having enough rooms for each of us to get one to...
Fall From Grace
I have a lot of stories that I write, you know, about myself. A lot of them are embarrassing but it helps to get them out there. I guess at some point I would have to record the big one. My therapist suggested I write it out and keep...
Type Disadvantage
It was a beautiful evening with the most comforting sunset, but Joulie was hard at work. She was a tax collector, and the job sometimes required odd hours. Not everyone was available during the work day hours, especially not the paupers she had the...
Every Nerd Has His Night
"Does he have a computer in his office?" Wind asked, "I could hack it." "No," the GM responded, "You're in the 1890s, computers won't be invented for a few decades." "What about a log book?" Wind picked up...
Average First Date
I stared down at my salad. I had asked for Cesar, but they brought me a tossed salad with Cesar dressing. I guess technically the waiter had just asked me my dressing preference. Still, I hate it when they do that. I shuffled my thoughts aside and took...
Keys to my Loin
"Go out and meet people," Mother had said, "Don't be such a homebody." Well, there I was, somehow both alone and surrounded by people. I had no idea what I was doing, other than nursing a drink and trying to identify what exactly the DJ was playing....
Traptap Finale: The Battle of Kobold Caves
The soreness in Korriana's legs made her frantic pacing painful. Her entire body ached, but she couldn't rest. She needed to divine a method of escape. The glazed over stare of her cellmate made sure Korriana never gave exhaustion a...
Traptap 4: High Sorcery
Korriana looked at her people, scurrying about, unaware that at any moment a band of adventurers could show up and kill them all. She had apparently been learning for "only seven days," whatever days were, and it felt like her struggle to take control...
Asliole 1: The Lawman
It was a normal day in Asliole. The sun was shining, the desert air was hot, the mariachi were playing their dead rustling tunes, and someone was getting their pockets picked. If Maria could help it, it wouldn't just be some one, it would...
