    Private Tales A wrong turn and a blind alley

    Her clenched fist relaxed at her side. He said we. Then her fingers slowly uncurled as he finished, loosening at her sides. The young human did not balk at his gaze. Not out of superiority for how most Anirians would react. Most dreadlords to the komodi. But because maybe she was one of the...

    Private Tales A wrong turn and a blind alley

    Riley's eyes sharpened in recognition at the language. A muscle feathered in her jaw as Oliver began to break down. Oliver wiped furiously at his dirt-strewn cheeks. Riley locked her gaze with Sal. Something unspoken passing between them. Something shared in what their individual purposes...

    Private Tales A wrong turn and a blind alley

    Riley held up her hand against the sudden popping glow of that torch. Eyes blinking rapidly in the flickering light. Those gold flecks in her hazels matching the blaze of the fire. Oliver paled next to her. Couldn't help his wide gaze up at the Komodi. The kid's eyes snagging on those filed...

    Private Tales A wrong turn and a blind alley

    Riley offered a vulgar gesture to the Komodi's back as he lead the way. Oliver saw and his brown eyes widened, a nervous smile flitting briefly across his scared face. The kid's small feet padded beside hers as they made their way down that stone staircase as the door closed behind them...

    Well, shit buckets. He was tall. Hazel eyes with particular flecks of gold and green snagged on those horn stumps and runes. At least he wasn't an ignorant fuckmuppet. A light sniff as her eyes flickered to the smooth stone in his palm. She didn't move to take it. Distrust still very much...

    "What the hell is that?" The red-headed pigtailed girl yelled as her eyes tracked up to where the others' gazes were going. "It's a fucking demon!" "It's the boogie monster! Run you shitheads!" The boy who'd try to clock Riley a few times yelled, still nursing his hand as he took off...

    Private Tales A wrong turn and a blind alley

    Riley moved expertly through the quickly thinning crowds. Her shoulder barely brushing others. Even the poor didn't like the rain. They were clambering to get under the few shoddy places that provided some shelter. There weren't much. The runaway saw the kid duck down an alleyway. "Stupid...

    Private Tales A wrong turn and a blind alley

    "Foosty fuking gobshytes," Riley swore beneath her breath. Hazel eyes ringed with more of a yellow in the shadow of her cowl peered on the darkened streets. It was raining. Her cloak nearly soaked through. Magic-lit street lamps and the flickering fire ones barely providing a decent glow to...

    He'd get a choice finger raised silently behind her in response as she continued to walk the perimeter. A few hours later, she'd kneel next to his slumbering form. A hand would go to nudge him awake. "Wakey-wakey," she'd call out, wondering if it would've been wiser if she used a stick to...

    A quiet huff at his answer as she finished off the orange, pushing the discarded peel deep into the sand. “We can agree on that. You’re a pain in my ass and a lotta things but so far not a fukin liar.” A part of her just couldn’t see him being around a bunch of kids. Time would tell if she was...

    Riley disappeared into the back of the cart, rummaging through any supplies that she'd pulled from the wreckage of the other things. Hazels lit up as she found an orange. Meandering back outside, she began peeling the orange. Pulling free a wedge, she dropped it into her mouth, savoring the...

    Hazels flickered over to Crux. She grunted in response. Was he trying to be nice? In some way, she appreciated the distraction. Her stomach was in knots. The tension across her shoulders was palpable. She knew they only had one more shot at trying to step the bastards that took the Falwood...

    Fate - First Reply A Desert Rose

    "You're a real jackass, y'know that?" She huffed, her fingers flexing at her sides. Perhaps as close as she'd get to saying 'thank you' or at least they they were even. Taking a moment to stare after his back before she finally stalked toward him. Toward the wreckage they'd made. She...

    "Hey, what the fuk are you," she huffed as he drew close. Too close. The glint of a blade and before she could ready her power to blast him, he brought it down. On himself. Then he was reaching for her. Alarm and mild disgust flared in her wild hazels. Brown brows scrunched on olive skin...
