"Trying to bruise me," Chisulo just kept whining, "after I was so nice to you." Brightening just as suddenly, he said curiously, "I didn't know you had...
"Of course I have brothers! That's how I got so scrappy," she explained proudly. Sparrow laughed affably, grinning at Chisulo's offer. "Oh, I don't know. I ...
His hand burrowed hard into the canvas of the punching bag, cratering the surface as his fist dug in. Matthias snapped his right hand back, cocked his hip,...
Diana was walking the halls of the Patrolhall in search of her partner and fellow journeyman, Spooky. The kitsune had left their office a while before, but...
... Matthias opened his eye and turned to look at Diana. He smiled a little and wiped a bead of sweat that had trickled down from his eyebrow. "Somewhere in...
"'Scrappy'? More like 'flaily'," Chisulo kept teasing her. "Mystery gone?" The changeling slapped the floor, pretending to be horribly offended. Waggling his...
“Congratulations.” Taking his response as an invitation to linger, Diana stayed near the doorway, brushing her red hair back as she thought about the...
... "Thanks." Matthias toweled off, taking care to catch any errant sweet beads that tried to get past him, folded up the towel and put it back onto the bench....
... Matthias shrugged. "Interesting enough. Man had a rival brothel owner murdered so he could drum up more business. Almost threw me off because he hired...
"You're full of something, I'll agree with that! I don't know whether or not it's mystery." Sparrow giggled at his melodramatic sprawl across the floor. ...
“Red Torch,” Diana guessed, shaking her head and wrinkling her nose. There was a hint of prissy disregard in the way her expression twisted when she...

... Matthias smiled as he stood up. "I figured I'd just go in the front down and come out with my man. No reason not to be direct. I won't even wear my...
“Well. Um. That’s one way to do things. It is very direct,” Diana said diplomatically. She really shouldn’t be surprised anymore when she heard plans...
"All right, Cian. Then I'll have to ask you to drop the 'miss.' Channing or Rhyes will do just fine. And I was not seriously detained. I can't say that he...
OOC: Whoops, forgot to switch to my gmail. BIC: [[She couldn't be more than a week old,]] the kraenon responded to the royal gryphon before their telepathic...
“As you wish, Channing,” Cian said graciously, nodding his head politely. “A royal should never wish to be apart from the people beneath him, a druid...
... Matthias shrugged and almost laughed. "It works most of the time. I'm flexible enough to try anything else if necessary." What he didn't say that...
O.O.C.: Asha will have to fly around in circles for a while. I am taking a sabbatical. This site has the best written posts I have seen online and I...
There were many people who were blaming Chaos for what was going on in the oceans surrounding Oceanica, and some of them were going so far as to move to take...

OOC: FUZZY TIME. I forgot I needed Diana for the dolphin plot so there's no hurry to finish this, I'm just stating that it happens the week BEFORE she leaves...
OOC: If this posts twice it will cause me death. (My internet broke down just as I was posting it.) IC: Perhaps most of the people in the tavern had come here...
For Regan Fannox, this was a personal mission, as well as a calling for Shadow Star and the greater good. A water soldier, he had heard the rumors of the...
... When Matthias got to the front hall, he was equipped and ready to go. His hands were now covered in his studded knuckles, and his dirk was buckled...
... Matthias Brenner didn't travel out of Cascadia often, but he found it an enjoyable experience when he did. Not that he was on vacation here in Oceanica....
