Bearing Fruit
Bearing Fruit by Zatie Luna Vulpe The scrawny little human yawned as he sat up, stretching gently. His eyes found the clock automatically. Seven AM, he'd have an hour to get ready and an hour's drive before some woman will have misconstrued that...
Good Dog
Good Dog By Zatarra L. Vulpe "Good dog." Luke squirmed in bed. His voice was lost in his throat. He tried to grab his sheets but they kept slipping through his fingers. "Good puppy." Luke kept blinking, but the room stayed dark, his legs squirming...
Here Kitty Kitty
# Here Kitty Kitty By Zatarra L. Vulpe Adius was bouncing to the beat. It wasn't what he wanted. Certainly the music was intense enough to carry the lion through dancing laser beams and thudding base hits, but something about it... It didn't reach...

Pushing Buttons
Pushing Buttons By Zatarra L. Vulpe Marilyn's car was still smoking when she stepped out of the side door. She sighed, popped the hood and glanced over the interior. She knew nothing about cars. She did know they weren't supposed to be smoking. ...
