Dante

Dante’s stomach twisted, and he shifted uncomfortably.

“That was just a lie to get you in the door. You don’t want me as a brother, trust me.”

He saw the hurt look on Rory’s face, and his stomach twisted even further. He looked away.

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel sheathed his blades. Now only the rune on his mask glowed, but he knew if the room tilted and they fell, his unsheathed blades could kill one of them. He grabbed Lucy’s hand, nervous about being separated again.

“Before this room shifts anymore, let’s get out of here.” He looked around the r…[Read more]

Rory 

“I’m not unfazed. I’m still trying to understand why he offered you a pain killer at all, and why he didn’t off you. Also, why can’t I call you brother if you just did a second ago?”

@ellette-giselle

This was the second time someone had claimed him with that familial title. He was beginning to like it.

Aww <3

Dante

They shook hands, finally formally introduced.  Rory cocked his head to the side. “Brother…?”

Dante looked at him sharply, a bit confused. “Don’t call me that.”

The doctor came in, and treated his wounds. He…[Read more]

Lucille

There was another door ahead; gray, with wooden panels, it was the kind of door that hid along an equally gray wall in a sagging house.

“I want to know why it’s here.” Lucy got up and, after some thought, played a descending scale.

The floor creaked. As Lucy played, the room shifted like a ship at sea, and when she looked at the…[Read more]

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel flinched at the loud boom of the piano cover. He cast Lucy a glance, making sure she was okay, before peering inside the piano. “It does have strings.” He hit one of the keys, watching the hammer strike the corresponding string inside the piano, silently fascinated.

Eventually, he dropped his h…[Read more]

‘Racist Hospital Workers Let Kid Die.’

😂 I’m dying

Rory

He held out his hand. “Rory. And I couldn’t leave you.” He cocked his head slightly. “Brother…?” This was the second time someone had claimed him with that familial title. He was beginning to like it.

@ellette-giselle

Dante

The hospital was close. Rory helped Dante walk to the bus stop, and then rode with him to the emergency room. Rory seemed tense and wary on the bus, but then, so was Dante. They picked a seat near the door, and kept an eye on the other passengers.

When they arrived, a nurse told them that a doctor was available to treat…[Read more]

@loopylin
Yep, those are the rules I remember

@rae

Lucille

Lucy had to choke down a snort. She took the piano lid and pulled. It was heavy but had no hinges. It fell off with a thunderous boom. She scampered back, lost her balance, and sat down suddenly. Dust rose and she let out two sharp sneezes.

@loopylin

Sounds good to me!

@rae  @loopylin @mineralizedwritings  @grcr

Oh cool! I love all of these!!!

MIN!! you have a Tauren too!!!??

So I’m thinking of the rules my school played with as a kid:

1. If someone catches a ball mid-air without fumbling it, the ref sends in one of their teammates who got out.

2. You can dodge or block a ball coming at you with another ball that you’re holding.

3. You start out with all the balls in the middle of the court, and everyone has to rush…[Read more]

Felicity

Shoes squeaked on the gym floor as Marcel’s team spread out. Felicity found a place somewhere in the middle of the gym. She did some arm stretches while eyeing the other team. There were a few people she recognized: Viktor, Lois, and one of the twins. She finished her stretches, and began b…[Read more]

I read it, and I have to say, it immediately captivated me.

Not only does the Prologue promise us a swash-buckling tale of heroics and battles, but I find the prose rather enjoyable. It definitely has that storyteller feel like Uncle Garth in Secondhand Lions (if anyone gets that movie reference). Maybe not exact, but it reminded me of…[Read more]

@koshka @whalekeeper

Thanks <3

@theducktator Ugh headaches are the worst. Stop looking at screens and drink some water. Hope you feel better soon <3

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

When Lucy tried to play the piano, Gabriel relaxed, realizing it was merely an instrument. He pressed a few keys exploratorily, sneezing as the dust traveled under his mask and into his nose. “Is it a magic instrument? Most the ones in my world are ones you have to blow wind through to work, or have s…[Read more]
