Academia – Part 1      As we head to our destination, the Academy,  Mimi briefly informs me how this will go. According to her, we’ll be taking a private coach on the train- yes, there are trains, but to get there we will have to walk near five miles.      Somehow though, they have little faith in, “the sciences,” yet are capable …

Expectance – Part 2       “Alright Voltin, we have to go about our business today. Make your way home like a good boy and-” Rose reaches between her breast and pulls out a coin, “buy yourself something sweet.”      Why is that where the money was?     “All right Mama! I love you!” Vol says while swinging his arms around her …

Expectance – Part 1      After fully recovering myself, I exit the bath and head back to my shelf. I notice whatever clothes I had aren’t where I left them. Instead, they’re hanging up on some kind of rudimentary hangars. Someone must have come in and organized my things. Oh god. I hope they didn’t hear me bawling like …

Disconnection – Part 3      I’m awakened by a soft voice and a gentle shaking. My eyes flutter half-open, making out an outline with white-ish hair. I mumble to Rose to let me sleep in longer and rollover. I pull the cover up over my head and fall back asleep.      Or I would have, had she actually listened to me but …

Disconnection – Part 2       The thought of my actions bringing death to others, strangers or not, terrifies me. But even further still, I didn’t say any of that out loud, so I can’t help but question Gee.       “What do you mean when you tell me I’ve practically ordered their execution? And how did you …

Disconnection – Part 1       So here I am, sitting around in a wonderfully comfortable chair, with three, maybe four sets of eyes on me. Each of the girls I’ve met, and possibly one I haven’t, sit around me, all in equally comfortable looking high chairs. I hold my face in my hands, and say to no one in particular, “Once …

Wive’s Tale – Part 2          I wake up to the caress of the sun’s morning rays. The world is largely silent, so at first, I think I’m hearing things. But as I focused my attention I realized I could hear what sounds like shouting coming from somewhere else. With a copious amount of effort, I pull myself out of the bed …

Wive’s Tale – Part 1      I’m dreaming, I think. It’s awfully realistic to be a dream. I’m sitting around a table, adorned in the finest of silken tablecloths. On the table lays all kind of food- some I’ve seen, some that can’t possibly exist in my world.      My world… right. I was pulled from my world and before I could …

Persona      When I wake up, I’m alone, inside of what appears to be the same hospital as before. I look around expecting to find Nina, but I do not. After resting for a bit longer, I get fed up with no one coming to visit me, after that horrendous ordeal with Fennis, and decide to leave the room. My legs …

R(ei)ven      Fennis looks across the arena and for the first time in his life, he fears. He fears, not for himself, for that is normal. One who stands at the top must always fear for their life, from heretics and fools both. No, Fennis fears for what has been unleashed. He senses it, and knows, none besides those who have …
