There’s a lot of screaming going on, honestly. I don’t really have the nerves for it. I wish everyone would be quiet. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m happy that there are people around me and that they’re making noise. It’s almost like...
2021-07-09 07:38:24 +0000 UTC View PostThe store is surprisingly busy, considering that this is only their second day of being open. But word of mouth seems to spread pretty fast here in this city. Fresh isn’t sure if it makes much sense, but her theory is that it’s because of the ...
2021-07-08 19:00:19 +0000 UTC View PostI die.
My soul flies, hurtling as I cascade, barreling through the eternal darkness of limbo. My essence, having released from the bonds of my corporeal body with a loud snap that I didn’t so much hear as I did feel, hurtles wit...
2021-07-08 15:12:36 +0000 UTC View Post“There are less of them here than I remember,” says Jubilee, joining into the conversation that Fresh is having with Basil, who has awoken and now sits on the foot of her freshly-made bed. Apparently she always does that first thing after gett...
2021-07-07 18:53:59 +0000 UTC View PostThunder cracks as the enclosed, cavernous space of the dungeon floor is filled with a ravaging energy which crashes off of the walls, barreling down towards the raid of adventurers, as it lashes out towards them, twisting and winding like a serpen...
2021-07-07 07:32:20 +0000 UTC View PostFresh shuts the door as the last two people walk out. Some lovey-dovey couple who can’t stop feeding each other with the candies from the two bags that they bought, as they walk together, heading away from the dungeon.

2021-07-06 10:37:11 +0000 UTC View PostSometimes I think that I’m a bit of a heart-breaker, you know? But don’t ask me why I think that.
I leap, my boot kicking off of the jagged spire of rock which crashes up out of the ground towards me. It might just be my ragin...
2021-07-06 07:07:32 +0000 UTC View Post“Bleeeeh!” calls out an elf wearing a wide-brimmed wizard's hat, shoving a sheep into the face of his party-member.
“Are you nine?” asks the man, draped in a heavy cloak with a high trim that rises up to his gaunt cheeks, ...
2021-07-05 19:02:34 +0000 UTC View PostThe things that happen to you when you’re young sink in deeper than you might think that they do. I mean, sure, you might think that they’re pretty deep down at the bottom of the core of your character to begin with. But let me tell you someth...
2021-07-05 07:09:47 +0000 UTC View PostThe mountain wind blows past her, pressing the loose fabric of her robe against the side of her body as the frigid breeze continues to flow down the crest of the mountain, as if it were water splashing out from an endless source. The starry night ...
2021-07-04 11:44:01 +0000 UTC View PostWe’ve been friends for a long time now, right, guy? But I don’t really know a single thing about you. I don’t know where you’re from. I don’t know why you’re down here with me. I don’t know what your true name is or even if you’re ...
2021-07-04 08:24:34 +0000 UTC View PostFresh plays around with a ball of kobold fluff, trying to figure out what to make out of it. But she can’t really think of too much. It’s soft and fluffy and warm, so it’s great for tailoring with. Maybe Jubilee can make some clothes out of ...
2021-07-03 13:45:07 +0000 UTC View PostI haven’t been entirely honest with you, guy.
Well, no. It’s not that I’ve been lying to you or anything, but there are just some things that I haven’t told you. I want you to like me, you know? That’s really important f...
2021-07-03 07:57:43 +0000 UTC View PostBoth Basil and Shamrock are fine, though one of them ends up being far more distraught about the situation than the other. Neither of them remember what happened, having no memories of anything between their having fallen asleep and their waking u...
2021-07-02 16:08:59 +0000 UTC View PostIt is natural to die, you know?
But that doesn’t mean I want to. It’s natural to sleep, it’s natural to cry, it’s natural to hurt, but that doesn’t mean I want to do any of those things. So I guess I’m just not going t...
2021-07-02 09:15:33 +0000 UTC View Post“Are you sure this will work?” asks Jubilee, looking around nervously to make sure that nobody is watching them. Surprisingly, no doors are opened along the street, no windows are lit up and no faces peek out of any shadowy glass panes. Despit...
2021-07-01 18:26:42 +0000 UTC View PostHow do you think you get someone to like you, guy?
Is it by being nice? Or do you have to be pretty? Maybe you have to be interesting? Or maybe you just have to be really, really cool?
“Psst-“
Fresh floats. Her senses are entirely drowned out by the roaring water that rushes past her head. What happened? It’s so cold. Did she die? She thinks so. It’s been a while. This is only her second time dying, right? Well… maybe technically ...
2021-06-30 09:04:03 +0000 UTC View PostI feel everything.
Lifting my hands out to my sides, I hold my arms out extended and feel the soft breeze flowing all around me as it creeps through my dusty bones. I feel the entirety of the empty space that I find myself in. I f...
2021-06-30 06:47:35 +0000 UTC View PostAssuming things don't go horribly wrong now. (They might) Should they open the new shop ASAP and worry about product development 'during the journey' or should they focus on making a large inventory first before opening? =)
2021-06-29 13:20:01 +0000 UTC View Post“Hot! Hot!” yelps Fresh as she juggles the little orange ball back and forth in her hands. She quickly drops it down onto a plate. The small thing squishes together a little, as it flops down against the glassware surface. Fresh frowns, lettin...
2021-06-29 13:12:19 +0000 UTC View Post“Woah, look at that!” I say in excitement as I point towards the glass tube that runs along the ceiling above our heads. The stranger says nothing and doesn’t look at what I have pointed out, opting to simply keep on walking forward with his...
2021-06-29 08:17:42 +0000 UTC View PostThey all fall asleep that night in the same room, much to Fresh’s delight. The girl smiles, clutching her blanket tightly with her fingers grasping the edge of the soft fabric, as she turns her head over on her pillow from side to side, looking ...
2021-06-28 14:16:13 +0000 UTC View PostHe’s so cool, guy, look at him.
I watch as the stranger rises up the staircase ahead of me. There isn’t enough room for us to walk side by side, so I let him go first. The truth is, I just wanted to watch him without him think...
2021-06-28 07:37:38 +0000 UTC View Post“So is this safe?” asks Basil, looking at Jubilee and Fresh. “Taking money from such… unsavory sources.”
Jubilee stares at the woman, somewhat dumb-founded. Lifting a hand, they point at Fresh who is standing next to Bas...
2021-06-27 09:46:58 +0000 UTC View PostThe angry man and I stand on the edge of the quarry, both of us staring up at the fabricated night-sky that is painted onto the ceiling above our heads. A paper moon hangs there, high up in the air and behind it is a magical crystal set into the r...
2021-06-27 07:19:08 +0000 UTC View PostA cool, stagnant air rushes to meet them as they open the thick, wooden front-door of the house just outside of the mountain dungeon. The soft current isn’t as cold as the air of the tunnel outside the building and as that lazy cloud of dusty mi...
2021-06-26 10:38:19 +0000 UTC View PostI press my foot against the stone wall next to us and use my leaping ability to kick off of it, sending me sliding back over the stones. The hollow armor rattles, clambering together as my movement sends him flying to the ground where he shatters ...
