The Decadent Courtship Of Katrina Van Tassel
The Decadent Courtship Of Katrina Van TasselIn 1790 a sleepy little village, mainly Dutch and specializing predominately in farming, was none the less an up and coming place. It was known as Tarry Town, residing in a valley known as Sleepy Hollow and the civic epicenter of it in point of fact. It had all the basic necessities of urban living: shops, bakeries, inns, etc. Slowly the mixed blessing of progress did encroach upon the town, and little did the villagers suspect this process would be hastened further by the arrival of a stranger. He approached on a plain grey steed, looking like a scarecrow seeking some cornfield to guard.At first...

LTOH: First Day of School
Life and Times at Oceanview High: First Day of School The alarm blaring out from my smartphone rings out as I slowly got up from what appears to be an eternity of slumber. Seriously, it almost felt like a lifetime trying to get up from bed. Looking at the time it displayed (5:14 AM), I was fighting off the sleepiness from my still groggy eyes when I was visited by a little white furry friend that purrs to me that morning.“Oh, hello, Marie, sweet pea,” I playfully greet her as I was petting her head, “As much as Mommy wants to play with you, she’s got school later this morning, so please be patient for the whole day. Okay, sweetie?”Marie is...

Review:Tekken blood vengeance
Tekken Blood vengeanceTekken blood vengeance is a 90 minute CGI animated film based on Namco's fighting game franchise. The plot this time sees a scramble/search for a student that is both immortal and carrying special genes. Ling Xiayou is sent by Anna, sister of Nina Williams to locate the boy in question. However Jin is also interested.The storyline here, as with many movies based on fighting games is relatively pointless to get up in arms about, it functions and keeps things simple and lets leave it at that. A better part of at least thirty minutes was spent goofing off and its all very predictable, clichéd and unlikely to give most wi...

The un-reflecting hind - 2.Bound for Japan
By the ninth of a sixteen-hour journey, unless one is lucky enough to be able to sleep on airplanes, one's mind more or less comes loose from its moorings and begins to wander. Thus, at a little past the halfway point between Berlin and Tokyo, I suddenly realized that I'd no idea what was going on in the forgettable movie, the second forgettable movie, I'd been watching on the back of the seat in front of me. I also had next to no idea where my mind had been for the last hour or so. Maybe I had dozed without knowing it, but now I was wide-awake. The time on the display was 1,30 a.m. CET time, not a great time to be wide-awake, a little que...

Synthetic Sympathy (Levi x Reader) AU {Part 3}
The smell of old books and peppermint fragranced incense mixed together in this dainty antique bookshop like a moss ball, but fancier, lingers to keep mold and paper eating bugs away. After all… the books that were hardly sold for years are still precious to this day. At least that is what the famous journalist who wrote the entire story of how the Tyburr company got taken down by a single man… thought to herself.
Leaving the town after 2 years of media coverage, Hanji Zoe – along with her partner and assistant, Moblit Berner – opens up their 2nd antique book shop to escape from the sensational hungry reporters. Even though she wrote enough truth in an article, some people are still craving for more. Possibly trying to move up themselves using Hanji as a ladder to step on. Well… she was smart enough to make a getaway and reside peacefully somewhere else.
Until one day…
“Ah. Welcome! Please, take your time to look around. I’ll be nearby when you need me.” Moblit greeted the new

Tales of Temet Nosce 4 - Furiis Acti
POV: Scarlet I should've known there was going to be something wrong with that day from the very beginning. Percivèla, normally the first to meet me over the course of the last four months, was conspicuously absent. Combine what I'd experienced even before coming into the Temet Nosce complex, delays in the bus system and Anna having come down with the flu that was going around the Oracle's offices, already the day was going just swimmingly. So to find my usual direct mentor absent was curious in and of itself. Not knowing what to do for the day, I figured it wisest to check in with "the boss". Maybe she'd know what was going on with Perc...

Lens and Liberation: Chapter Fourteen
When Shen woke, she was alone. It was a confused girl that sat up and greeted the dawn on top of Mt. Pyre, for the chill of a breeze had brought her back to the waking world, a thing that shouldn’t have been possible when she knew very well that she’d gone to sleep in a tent on a patch of purified ground. But the tent was gone. And the gravel she’d pitched that tent on had disappeared, giving way to a field of dew-soaked grass and equally drenched gravestones that stretched as far as she could see. It didn’t take long for Shen to realize that despite the scenery, something was wrong. Her companions, for one, were nowhere in sight; though...

By Rohana Katrien was quite the sight as she rushed along the canal towpath. She was a strappingly strong Dutch girl in her mid-twenties, her body both lush and strong beneath her patterned blouse and black shin-length dress. Her expressive face was capped with a blonde bun beneath a white cap. On her round-heeled feet, wooden clogs clattered against random pebbles. But lets go back to that blouse, that bosom, and how its twin cargos sloshed with her exertions. That her respiration was quickened only added to their gyrations. As noted, she was a strong and healthy girl. On the bank before her creaked a water-pumping windmill, its fou...

Lancer huffed as another barrage of sweets, cola and chocolates rained down into their sopping trolley. An oblivious blond king, now several paces forward once more, eagerly glanced over the rest of the confectionary aisle as if it was a truly impressive sight. An exclamation of excitement could be heard audibly from around the corner, the convivial servant having at last found the section he had been anticipating since entering the shop. His Irish companion was less impressed as he removed a heavy bottle of sticky, sugary black liquid to find his loaf of bread carelessly squashed underneath. His first grocery shopping trip with Gilgamesh ...

To Antonia it sounded as though the entire lower rooms were filled wall to wall with guests. As the noise grew louder, Antonia grew scared.Antonia's heart began to pound out of control. The knees beneath her became weak but at the same time her muscles were rigid and stiff. Her skull felt as though it were constricting around her brain causing the veins to pulse agonizingly. Her vision became unfocused so much that she lost all sight for a se...

They’re standing on the crew catwalk leading to the cockpit of Silver’s Black Hawk . The hunched-over OmniMech is painted in the same khaki-drab camouflage scheme as the other Norns ’Mechs in Lodestar ’s main bay but it still looks out of place somehow.

The Fight Area. A special island just northeast of the Sinnoh region, this area is closed off to all but the strongest of Pokemon trainers, sprawling with Pokemon from all over the world and home to a very prestiges resort village. Trainers were only allowed a ticket to this exclusive area by proving their strength in the Sinnoh League, finishing at least in the top 8. Once admitted, a trainer was free to experience the island in whatever way, shape, or from as they wanted: whether it was battling the top trainers of the region, searching for and finding foreign Pokemon, relaxing at the resort, exploring the volcanic caverns of Stark Mo...

PROLOGUEShe’d known spring was going to herald a record-breaking runoff, but she’d never seen it like this.
The mountain springs of the Oregon High Desert were gorged, pouring water from the winter’s heavy snowfall on Mt. Bachelor into the Deschutes. The tumbling hydraulics of the Deschutes River pounded over a precipice just downstream from where she waded in shallow water, and the current tugged at her ankles, threatening her balance.
Allie Preston stepped gingerly up onto a rock that broke the surface midstream, wiggling her bare toes in the sunshine and reveling in the return of sensation. The icy water wasn’t tolerable for more than a...

When the door chimed at the front entrance of Curry's, only a few heads turned to see who had arrived. Still the famous corporate watering hole tucked away off the narrow alley, the homey feeling within always welcoming its regulars. The bartender, Toby, barely glanced up at the door, preoccupied with fixing a couple of drinks. Catching a glimpse of two people, he finished the drinks he was working on, shoving them towards the eager drinkers. One of the newcomers paused at the counter, leaning into it. "Toby.....you're still working here, man?"
Perking his head up, Toby made a noise, the smile spreading across his f...
