ravine bonus story- hurrons taleravine bonus story- hurrons tale1 year ago in Short Stories More Like This
Bear…. Wolf, eagle. Always these beasts could turn the hunter into prey. Hurron knew this, it was a knowledge his father taught him well on his first bleeding of the snow.
Up in the cold you keep these three rulers in mind at all times, especially at the winters end, for wolf is still rabid with winters hunger. Bear awakens from its slumber sharing the same thought as the wolf, and northern eagles, they are always a threat. In time, they learned to wound their prey and watch it bleed to death. Yes, three ruled the mountains, but on the day of bleeding of the snow, they were all prey

The dexterity of Marik's long, elegant fingers was, as ever, a matter of fascination to Bakura. He moved with the nimbleness of a jungle cat, the sandy-colored demigod of the desert, and gazed upon his prey with narrowed, luminous eyes, just as he was now staring at Bakura.
"Will you cut off a lock of your hair for me?" he asked, smiling, while he handed Bakura the dagger.
Bakura grabbed the knife. He slipped it through the stained, white strands and snipped off a handful. When Marik approached to take the hair, Bakura suddenly grasped the boy by his waist and brought him close.
"Marik," he said so quietly and sweetly that Marik sh

"You mean you ain't never heard of the Gunslinger?"
The bar was almost dead at this time of night, and the question seemed to echo around the room - emphasising the sudden silence, rather than masking it.
"No, boy, I ain't."
Only a handful of stragglers remained, the dregs of the evening clearing the dregs of their whiskeys. The lights shone dimly, and everything moved lethargically in the warm Texas night.
"Well I'll be. I thought everyone 'round here knew the story of the 'slinger'," said one of the stragglers – a tall, skinny man wearing a pale cowboy hat. A battered guitar rested on his knee.
"I'm new in town."

Don't ScreamDon't Scream1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
Don't let yourself get stabbed
Until you know how it feels.
Don't let the wound grow worse
After it heals.
Don't allow the blood
To escape the closed scar.
Don't try to get close
When you're already so far.
Don't fall from the cliff
Until you jump from such a height.
Don't turn cannibalistic
Until you feel such a bite.
Don't take control of your nightmares
Until you can dream.
Don't yelp for help
Until you learn how to scream.

Everything's a blur
I just stick it out, pretend to be engaged
Not let them know i have a problem
But I do
Did you know i don't remember a good portion of freshman year?
Memories of that year pass in a blur, time has been jumbled.
Because I lost my best friend?
Because my brother nearly died?
Or just because I have a problem..?
But then suddenly you become a part of my life
And the time i spend with you is crystal clear
Just seeing your face or hearing your voice can make it happen
Make me happy. Really genuinely happy!
I haven't felt that in so long!
I feel alive, i feel real
And you make me feel important... loved.

He showed you his wounds
You're feelin' pretty important
You think you mean a thing to him
You probably would,to someone else
He's not that kind of man
It's not his kind of thing
You don't know him
I do most of all
He cuts himself when he's alone
He does it when he's sad
When he's sad and tired
Of his tainted past
He may show you his wounds
But it's not what you mean
He wants compassion
Someone who gives a fuck
You asked him for a date
I know,he told you no
Let me tell you,he gave up
On women after me
Don't take it personal
When he turns you down
It's complicated anyway
He's just trying to escape

This is a stone walled passageway between twenty to fifty feet long that seems to come to a dead end (or there can be a false door at the end). Ten feet into the passage, a modified permanent reverse gravity spell will cause any person to "fall" toward the end of the passage as if falling into a pit. The fall will cause 1d6 points of falling damage per ten feet of passage. The end of the passage essentially becomes the "bottom" of the "pit." A five foot section of the pit's reverse gravity field can be dispelled with a successful dispel magic DC20. The reverse gravity field can be detected with a successful dete

What Can I Say?There's nothing to say that hasn't already been said.What Can I Say?2 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
There's nothing to do that hasn't already been done.
In the end my best friend will still be dead
and his sweet parents will still mourn a son.
The memories of happier times fade in my head,
and errors of the past can never be undone.
Clover on a grave watered by tears we shed
An old wound renews because Spring has sprung
There's nothing to say as the same path I tread.
There's nothing to do about walking it now alone.
