    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Post: RE: The things we leave behind || Hod, family ||

    Nyxa was quieter than usual, her description of her day brief. That was big news, though. Investors meant funding, and expanding on projects that could really take the aquarium to the next level. They...

    It was hard to let her go, but his stomach soon convinced him. With fingers twined together he followed her into the dining room. The overhead light must have been off, letting the dim glow of candle ...

    Hod walked the rest of the way to the house from the bus stop, the tap tap tapping of his cane echoing back the familiar path that led up to the front porch steps. The spicy scent of tomato sauce blen...

    It was breathtakingly sensuous, the way she curved and slid against his chest. The lithe sea mare knew exactly what kind of effect she had on him. The fine scales that coated her body felt as smooth a...

    Adria was her mother all over again. Opinionated, stubborn, with a sweetness that could break your heart. He didn't think he could love anyone as much  s he loved his sea mare, but their daughter had ...
