Untimely Blizzards by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

Untimely Blizzards

Kitsune_XIII It felt like it had been months. It hadn't been, but if felt like it. The temperature had been dropping rapidly, and Ikoro fluffed his plumage against the cold, staring at the familiar sight sprawling out before him. The dry cracked earth of Shalekesh had gradually given way to grass, and now, budding shoots of yellow sedge, and prickly spurs of shyl were starting to fill the low dips and hills of the fertile plains of Messus. Home. He was finally, four years after waking up at the Tarn, Home. He sucked in a deep breath, and took a few cautious steps forward, into the lands ruled by Danuoc. Lands of river and field. His ears were pinned flat to his skull, his tail tucked tight under him--and not just because of the cold. A tight coil of uncertainty had filled him, now that he was so close. What if what he'd been hearing was true? What if.... what if it really had been centuries since he'd fallen in the river? The white puffs of his breath in front of his nose betrayed

Grief and Duty by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

Grief and Duty

A low, mournful creek filled the small chamber, a sugar sweet breeze from outside the candle-lit room made the candles flutter around the young ketucari known as ‘Hinoka’, though they returned to life quickly enough. A familiar scent wrapped around her, soon followed by the bearer pressing his chest against her back and coiling himself into a hug. She leaned back into the gesture, grappling with the hollow feeling in her belly. This should be something exciting, or nerve wracking. Instead… “How are you holding up?” Toshi asked, his voice gentle and low, careful not to carry out of the chamber, his silvery feathers tickling her neck. “Numb.” Hinoka answered. “Chiyo should be here, not me.” The loss of their sister was still fresh, but it was that time of year… the time of year where strangers most wanted to see their loved ones. How unfair was it that she could show them all of their loved ones—children, siblings, parents, lovers—and couldn’t see her own? Masatoshi hooked his paw more

Concerns and Preparations by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

Concerns and Preparations

“Why is it,” a young heldyr woman asked around the tape measure between her teeth, using one hand to restrain her partner’s arm and the other to hold the other end of the fabric, “that when I actually need you to sit still--” she released his hand, and he jerked it away to resume fiddling with whatever the clay object in his hands was, “you suddenly can’t? Normally you’re--” “Shh.” The human—well, ketucari in human form, much like the heldyr, countered. “I’m trying to focus.” Dream, the heldyr, sucked in a breath through her nose, gritting her teeth around the measuring tape between them. “I’m doing this for your safety you ungrateful jerk!” Golden, distractingly serpentine eyes flicked away from the clay statue, focusing on her own for a moment. Tri’s casual smirk hadn’t left his face once today, and even now he kept calm in the face of her annoyance. He shifted his grip around the statue to stand it tall on his desk. It was about the size of a week old cub, and he’d tucked a blend of

Skittering by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

Skittering

The ryno was clearly working on… something with their mortar and pestle. She wouldn’t pretend to understand it, as the shimmery red insects were nothing she knew of for poison. She, of course, being Scolopendra. The creature hung from a low branch of a massive kapok, head twisted to watch the ryno work. He hadn’t noticed her yet, her vibrant coat blending surprisingly well with the colorful canopy of the Viridian Tangle, allowing her to watch the harpy toa at her leisure. He was a handsome one, she’d rapidly decided. His pelt reminded her of an oil spill or the painted cliffs of Shalekesh when she dared surface on Darsha, and his wild eyes were fixed on the tools in his paws. He was one of the wanderers, she was pretty certain. Took the mantel with Furaha. Yes, she recalled that. Down the tree, hanging sideways now, and his ears flicked back to her. She froze, one paw lifted mid step, not daring to breathe. His voice was startlingly light when he spoke. “I can hear you skittering. Who

Shelter from the Storm by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

Shelter from the Storm

The wind howled over the lake, crashing its waves against the shore, dispersing the titular mist that normally blanketed the normally ocean-blue waters. The trees snapped and cracked against each other, groaning, screaming protests into the oncoming storm. A massive ryno struggled against the wind, grateful that at least the rain had yet to reach the lake. He pushed through the shelter of a bush and towering fir, shuddering as the wind snatched his fur and yanked back on it. Not to mention the niggling pain between his shoulders… he needed to get to the shore, just get to the path where he… he could regroup there. His family and vassals-- they’d know where to look, certainly? The ryno staggered out of the forest, struggling down the stoney beach to the water’s edge. The water was dark. It frothed and churned like a boiling pot, the spray reaching nearly the ryno’s eyes. Good. No one would follow him in, no one would-- “Halt!” a low voice demanded and immediately, the ryno spun--his

Carnivale Concerto by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

Carnivale Concerto

The final night of the Colour Carnivale had a special treat. A special concert. The tents had been shifted around, the pathways and attractions pushed aside at dusk, encircling the comers and goers. A stage arose at the center of the camp, where what could only be described as a rock band appeared. Colors dazzled across the crowd, lights from an unknown source, unseen speakers blasting. It was, all in all, not what had been expected from the Carnivale. Dra’tas had lost sight of her brother and their shared mate hours ago, somewhere in the throng of bodies--hundreds, maybe thousands strong, full of ketucari, akadri, heldyr, some jordskar and hibridi, at least one lucedarian, and other threats. She resisted the urge to snarl at the throng, hanging back and listening to the figures on the stage scream something about prayers. At her side, another ryno angled her ears back and watched the crowd move and shift as if it were a living thing. Titanium’s face as unreadable as ever. Dra’tas, not

[STYGS] W?Z?RD by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

[STYGS] W?Z?RD

Emerald give way to stark, dark walls, and an extravagant plush rug. Ookamiza pants, giggling with glee to be here. Here in the ??????? Castle. He turns in a circle, staring at empty frames. Someone… someone was there, someone is watching him, and he flicks his tail. “Were are not watching you.” a voice hisses from one of the frames. He freezes, staring at the eyes. “Were are not here for you.” Another, on the opposite wall. He spins and lashes his tail, suddenly feeling small. “Were are here to see the Wizard.” A third voice, another eye, near the door. The voices ring in his ears, the pressure and Presence press down on him. His Friends seemed absent, replaced by the Eyes. The Voices. They sang praises for this ‘Wizard’. He prances in a circle, laughing, his muzzle loosening with his grin. “The Wizard will grant our wish.” Our wish?, he echoes, rearing up to peer into the eye in one of the picture frames. “Your wish.” it answers, almost singing to him. His tail vibrates with

Crossed Paths by IIIXKitsuneXIII, literature

Crossed Paths

“So you took a handsome toa to bed and you haven’t seen him since?” a voice emanated from somewhere below, and Amihan lifted his head. Visitors? This deep in the jungle? At his back, Des lifted his head from Amihan’s haunch with a sleepy noise and yawned, his jaws stretched wide in the corner of Amihan’s eye. “Who’s here?” he asked, licking his tusks. Amihan shrugged, and peered over the edge of the branch he and Des were sleeping on, squinting to see past the leaves and flowers to the jungle floor. There were three ketucari there. A blue coated phoenix, their back a paler blue, was perched across the tree roots, talking to a massive ginger-coated ryno with overo. Hiding in the shadows, seemingly clinging upside down to the roots of the tree was… Mumotsu? ‘Mumotsu’ spoke next. “Describe the toa you speak of, Oren.” her voice shrill and haunting but very not Mumotsu’s. Des stood, bracing himself over Amihan’s back to peer down with him, flicking his ears curiously. “Should we go down

you and i were resting close in peace

Neve had never seen a two-legger before. She watched curiously as the two-leggers moved around a large wooden box on wheels, pulled by large, hooved quadrupeds with short horns from the center of their faces. The two-leggers themselves were Interesting. Walking on their hind legs. They seemed hooved, but it was hard to tell with the cloth and wrappings around them. Some had short, swept back horns that stood out against their white fur. Others--larger, bulkier figures--had rows and fangs and deeper, darker colors in their fur. They hadn’t noticed her yet, which she was grateful for. She kept low, moved carefully. Just because she’d left the Forest didn’t mean she wanted to be found by those outside of it. And two-leggers were the biggest concern. They were speaking to each other, or at least she assumed the noises they were making were some sort of language. She caught a word here or there, or… thought she did. They were too scattered for her to parse. They were laughing, chatting to

Eclipse changed their green theme to something that looks like the ass end of moldy bread and it's once again triggering migraines for me. To top it off, they seem to have taken down https://www.eclipsefeedback.com/ and there's No Other Way To send feedback. Fuck Wix and the staff of this site.
