Subgalaxia: Ch 21

“What?” Fane opened the door to Sophia’s banging as Ishan pulled his kurta on.  Sophia tripped forward through the door frame, startled at the sudden change. Ishan tossed the black compression top to Fane. “The orb connected fully!” she boasted excitedly.  Fane pulled his shirt on over his head as he raised a suspicious eyebrow…

Subgalaxia: Ch 20 – NSFW

NSFW: Erotica Fane collapsed onto the bed in his and Ishan’s room.  They had returned to the warehouse when Bern had released him.  He had thrown himself through a shower, brushed his teeth, and pulled one of the more creative mechanics off the shop floor to lop off his locks.  He ran a hand through…

Subgalaxia: Ch 18

“Labrat!  Grab you’re sticky dots and your laptop.” Fane leaned into Sophia’s office.  Sophia, as usual, was buried up to her shoulders in charts and reports. Fane figured she was the reason for deforestation.  Corbin popped his head out from beneath a different desk in the room. Fane raised a confused eyebrow at him. “I…

Subgalaxia: Ch 17

It was still dark out when Fane roused from a dead sleep.  He stretched and blinked. He had woken up two minutes before his morning alarm.  He had slept. He had really and truly slept solidly for once since before Melody had died.  No nightmares, no creatures, no interruptions. He glanced at the slowly lightening…

Life of a Librarian: Ch 11

I dropped my bags next to the shoe rack when the door clicked behind us.  A sigh escaped me as I relaxed into the gentle light of the setting sun in the courtyard.  This had to be one of the more beautiful times of day to see the apartment. Sylwyn dropped a stack of mail…

Firefly Fish: Ch 23

NSFW: EROTICA “This mean I need to find you another shole?” Saeesar slipped into a current that sent us away from the Gulf and Karis’s nesting ground. “Well,” I hedged. “I wonder if you like sweetwater eel.” He twisted his head in what I would equivalate to a cocked eyebrow. “One from your home waters?”…

Subject 15: Ch 17

Having returned to Ishan’s offices, Fane was at a loss regarding what he was supposed to do. He was no bodyguard. He was neither certified nor trained as one. He was an ammo tech and dive instructor. He monitored the armoury. He cleaned and accounted for everything. He taught people how to not drown when…

Firefly Fish: Ch 16

“Marin!” Saeesar called behind me as I broke the surface of the ocean. We were surprisingly closer than I thought to land. The crevice had been part of a deep section off a long shallow shelf. Instead of wasting the charm, I used it to push myself towards the soft sand beach. “Marin!” Saeesar called…

Firefly Fish: Ch 14

“Tell me of your home.” I studied paper white skin at the edge of my cheek. Green flecks of plankton and salt drifted in swirls of ocean waters across Saeesar’s chest. The sun beat down on us as we floated over calm waves. His fins billowed out around him, soft and translucent like threadbare muslin….

Firefly Fish: Ch 12

“The problem remains, though, even in accepting your dowry, that I don’t speak Antumnos, and I can’t use my gills. What is there for us if I have an aversion to the water?” I motioned to the horizon behind Saeesar.   He pulled up a shoulder and twisted his head at the question. “I am not…
