The power of the collar
\<Okay. It's here.\> \<I'm a bit excited, tbh.\> \<Gooood. My plan is working\> \<So what do you think is inside?\> \<Dunno. It's not very heavy though.\> \<Wait.\> \<You didn't buy me a game, did you? xD\> \<Depends on your definition of a...
Suspension of disbelief
"Do any of you know what that is?" The change of tone in the lecturer's voice snapped Jack out of a light daydreaming state. The young dragon had been nibbling on his blue pen for a while now, eyes staring vacantly at the empty whiteboard as he let...
Detention
Rory knew perfectly well that Mr. Leslaie wouldn't hear a word anyone said in that room, let alone check from time to time whether they were actually doing their homework or just browsing on their mobile phones as they waited for those two hours to...
Repetitions
Bryan woke up in a cold sweat, breathing heavily and with the strange feeling that he'd been having the weirdest dream. It took the grey wolf a few seconds to get used to the shadows around him, that only seemed to be disrupted by the dim light of a...
Silence in the library
I try not to yawn and fail miserably. Monday evenings are easily the most boring shift I've ever worked and somehow it always ends up assigned to me. It's not too surprising - I'm still young and inexperienced enough that the other librarian,...
Getting used to each other (commission for MagicDragons)
"Oh, man. Did you really get Silver?" Void blinked, confused. Martin, his caracal friend, was wearing a worrying frown and had asked the question with some kind of urgency. "Uh-huh, that's what it looks like. What's the matter?" The caracal...
The change (commission for Basti)
Your first thought was that a creature like that shouldn't be in a place like this. There are places where the lucky, the rich – and in short, those who win – belong. A bar on the corner of a dark, empty alley with a sign so old and dirty it...
A cup of coffee with the therapist
It had been a bad idea not to take the umbrella. Very bad idea, indeed. Fosk looked at his reflection on the elevator mirror, feeling a lump in his throat. His black fur was totally soaked, from head to toe and under his clothes. When he shook his...
A (second) cup of coffee with the therapist
Fosk still had time to check the crumpled list he held in his paw one more time before he rang the doorbell, slightly less nervous than the last time he had stood there. At least, he told himself, this time he was completely dry. That week had passed...
A (?????) cup of coffee with the therapist
"I must say," Fosk admitted, once he took a seat on his couch "that you got me pretty excited last week with that whole 'next session will be a blast' thing. I've been wondering what you meant for days." Kenneth gave him a wide grin, his tail...
A (third) cup of coffee with the therapist
Kenneth liked having a certain sense of control over several things. One of them was, of course, his own business. It had been difficult to set himself up as that particular kind of therapist and he hadn't always been free from judgment. The white...
Your new life in three steps (commission for Basti307)
“Sorry, babe," the wolf said, his eyes still pulsing with that mesmerizing glow that seemed to ease every single spot of your mind, “but it turns out there are many things that you don't know about me." It had been an exhausting day. Working in the...
