Something I did a few days ago. Probably won't make much sense to those outside the RP circle, but whatever! Criticism on form only is still welcome.

Metyra/Deacon in nature, but there's nothing explicit in the text.

Deacon is mine, and Metyra belongs to the wonderful Miss Kat.

Red.

It was the only colour he had left.  It had somehow infiltrated the ( Read more... )

It was Saturday morning, but just barely.  I didn't wear a watch, but Julia did, and she kept looking at it like it would tell her the next winning lotto numbers.  It was a gaudy thing, all garish colours and cheap plastic with a picture of Rainbow Brite pasted on the face.  It was meant for a child.

"1:16," she said in the stillness of the ( Read more... )

“What the hell is this all about, Moysten?”

I was not happy.  How could I be?  Tom, genius that he is, had seen fit to drag me out of my living room in the middle of dinner with ecstatic cries of “Nick! You gotta come see this!” and was now leading me to lord knew where.  He’d made such a huge fuss, waving his arms around and tugging on my shirt, ( Read more... )

I wrote something!

... It's for class, but still!

This is the first thing I've written for my creative writing class. It isn't really much, honestly, because we were supposed to write about something weird that happened to us this weekend. Then we were told it could be fiction, only that no one was supposed to be able to tell. SO.

It wasn't as though ( Read more... )

But I won't get into that. Anyway, I just wanted to post part of my lit project. After studying the old Robin Hood ballads, I wrote one of my own to present, and I thought I'd share it.

Listen well, all folks with ears to hear,
For this tale must be told
Of the famèd outlaw Robin Hood,
So noble and so bold.

Springtime was at its finest hour,
The green- ( Read more... )

Final exam: Composition 115--
Write a short paper (aim for about a page) describing what changes you would make to your research paper if you had more time.

That was my assignment.
Having neglected to sleep last night, this is what I wrote:

1.21 Jiggawatts

Let’s say that I was given access to the De Lorean from Back to the Future, but I was told ( Read more... )

Just a quick question: Is it normal to hear two Jackson Pollock references in one day? Within hours of each other?

I don't think it's normal to hear two Jackson Pollock references in one month, but maybe that's just me.

"ACTIVE SHOOTER ALERT. TAKE SHELTER IN PLACE."

These are the words I have been hearing for the past three hours or so. The alarm went off around 1:15 a.m. and has been going strong ever since.

Now, when I first heard this alarm, I was scared. Active shooter? That's some pretty heavy stuff. I certainly didn't want to play witness to one of those ( Read more... )

Title: Wander and the Colossus
Fandom: Shadow of the Colossus

Summary: A very basic drabble about Wander's quest.

Tonight was absolutely brilliant.

The daytime bit? Not so much. This is a long fucking story, so follow the cut.

At ten-thirty, I woke up. I shat around for a while and then got ready for my classes (yes, all two of them). After that, logically, I headed off to class. None of this was very out of the ordinary, but I was feeling just this side of ( Read more... )
