Lost Eclipse Part 12
Kaito popped another piece of dragonfruit in his mouth and chewed thoughtfully, tracing the influx of pure power through his system and considering the ramifications of it; already he could sense himself becoming a bit more attuned to this world’s native power, despite how settled his soul had become over the years. (Settled or not, …

Fox and Griffin Part 8
Kisuke woke abruptly, body held carefully still as his mind scrambled to catch up. He wasn’t in his own bedroom but he was in a bed, so he hadn’t fallen asleep in the lab— Someone yawned against his neck and Kisuke’s breath caught in his throat as his mind finally produced an answer. Griffin mumbled …

Bare Your Fangs to the Dusk Part 16
“Dinner, loves!” Alexis announced as she ducked into her tent, holding a bowl of soup in one hand and using the other to keep the flap up so that Briar could follow her in with the other two bowls. “Put the research aside for five minutes and get some food into you,” she said in …

Lost Eclipse Part 11
Uryuu looked up from his plate as Euden returned from the kitchen, wondering why the other was so convinced that dragonfruit would be helpful; he’d never known dragonfruit to have any special effects in his world— (*But we ain’t in our world anymore,*) Shiro said thoughtfully, eyeing the two bright red fruits that Euden was …

Fox and Griffin Part 7
Kisuke sighed and buried his face in his hands, restless and exhausted and unable to sleep for the worry that gnawed at his mind. He just let Griffin leave. He’d let a newly declared villain leave safety simply because the man was confident in his contacts. He could have stopped him, could have insisted on …

White Wings and Soft Cloaks Part 16
It was… early… by the time Erich finally crawled into bed next to Alexis, the sky starting to lighten and songbirds already beginning to sing in the trees. He was exhausted but his mind was spinning, picking at Urahara’s observations and turning-turning-turning until he couldn’t tell where one thought began and another ended. Urahara was …

Bare Your Fangs to the Dusk Part 15
Kisuke dismounted with a groan, pleased that they were done moving for the day; he was used to being the one setting the pace, not being the one having to keep pace, and he definitely felt the difference. He’d have liked more opportunities to take notes about the handful of battles they couldn’t avoid, but… …

Lost Eclipse Part 10
Euden made sure to keep an eye on Ishida Uryuu as the young dragon toyed with his food rather than eating it. Even Urahara Kaito didn’t eat quite as much as Euden expected, given the amount of food he’d already seen Midgardsormr put away; was it a factor of size — both Urahara Kaito and …

Fox and Griffin Part 6
“Lieutenant von Rerugen, welcome to the Northern Rift.” Erich hefted his duffel higher and returned Fairy’s salute, gaze drifting up to the strange, gleaming gash in the sky high above them. Bright, crystalline chains looped around and over the rift, straining to prevent its further widening. He’d seen images of it before, but… “A sight …

White Wings and Soft Cloaks Part 15
Kisuke tugged absently at the too-short sleeves of his borrowed top as he waited for Erich to come outside, trying to suppress the desperate, restless edge that was creeping into his thoughts; he needed… he needed to do something — fight or create or… or something, anything that would give his mind an outlet — …

Bare Your Fangs to the Dusk Part 14
“Ready to go?” Erich asked Ura— Kisuke as the man stepped into the courtyard with a pack in one hand and his regular sword strapped to his waist. “And meet my fate? Absolutely,” Kisuke replied with a teasing grin as he meandered closer, sharp eyes taking the chaos of the courtyard in. “I simply cannot …

Lost Eclipse Part 9
Uryuu couldn’t help scanning the building — the castle! — as Euden lead them through it; it was clearly an immense structure, timeworn and neglected but still grand despite it all. It was almost like some sort of… of fairytale or something, the building less practical and cramped than what he’d read of what real …

Fox and Griffin Part 5
“Still keeping an eye on me, I see,” Erich murmured as he caught sight of a pure black tail vanishing beneath the train seat he was approaching. “You’re taking this a bit more seriously than I expected.” He dropped his bag onto the seat and sat down next to it, pulling out the sheaf of …

White Wings and Soft Cloaks Part 14
Kisuke pivoted on his toes, keeping Alexis in view as she prowled a circle around him. She’d surprised him during their first bout, taking advantage of his hubris to send him tumbling but… not this time. This time, injured or not, he would win. He’d already begun to make plans, to memorize her style, and— …

Bare Your Fangs to the Dusk Part 13
Kisuke leaned against the window of his office and watched the organized chaos that the courtyard had turned into the moment the sun crested the horizon. Alexis’ hunting party was as impressive as ever, going about their tasks as if they’d always been without the magic and enhancements granted by blastia, and it made him… …
