Adventures in Time, Space, Life and Death
“Come on, Rett, it’s just water!” Gath looked out of place, standing in the water of a communal swimming pool. Mostly because he was the only adult Rethan there. While it was a public pool, the main visitors were Skyavok, floating around in inflatable rings in the deep end of the pool. “But it is … Read more
“Come to the beach with us!” Arkay looked away from his computer screen. “Beach, Kallis?” “Yes! With us!” “You and Stef?” “Yes! And Stef’s sister and her husband.” Arkay blinked. “And you want me to come with you?” “Yes. Why is this so hard for you to get?” Kallis crossed his arms. “I want you … Read more
“Wow.” Phovos looked up as she realized that she wasn’t alone. “Oh, hi Retvik.” “Hello…” Retvik was clearly staring at Phovos, his mouth slightly open. “You look… amazing.” “I do?” “Yes.” Phovos smiled a little, then put her stuff, mainly her handbag and keys, down on the little table by the door. But there was … Read more
“Hello, Lady Kinisis, how can I help you?” Phovos had been minding her own business, dusting and cleaning the armoury that had recently been donated to Kinisis’s Life Oasis, as the elegant yet almost naked Life Goddess walked in. “Hiya, little Phovos, I was wondering what to do with myself when I thought of you, … Read more
“It feels like it is getting worse…” “Pardon?” Kuta sighed, realizing he had spoken out loud. “Sorry, was lost in thought.” “It is fine, dear!” Trismit put an arm around Kuta. “Is something bothering you?” “Yes. It feels like the Secret collapse is getting worse.” “Oh.” “Do you not feel it too? That overarching silence?” … Read more
“So why am I hanging upside down?” Retvik tutted to himself as his hands scraped across the ground. “And how have you managed to hang me upside down so badly?” Teekay and Eksi glanced at each other, then both shrugged. “Eksi thought it might be easier to mind control you if all your blood rushed … Read more
“Yay!” Arkay inspected the small, glowing orb that he had just created. It flickered and glistened with a warm radiance, slowly spinning around. The orb wasn’t a perfect sphere and would occasionally send out small twirls of pink energy, but Arkay was still pretty pleased with himself. “Now to share it…” With a smile, Arkay … Read more
Retvik grunted as consciousness returned to him. He couldn’t remember passing out, and was rather shocked to find that he had been tied up to a chair. A rather small, uncomfortable chair. “Ah, you are finally awake!” Litvir smiled while standing way, way too close. He was practically in Retvik’s face. “Welcome to An Idiot’s … Read more
“Relkir, Litvir, are either of you busy currently?” The two Rethans turned and stared at the doorway where Retvik was standing somewhat awkwardly. “We are on our break, so no, we are not busy,” Relkir shrugged, approaching his titanic half-brother. The three of them used to be of similar sizes, but now that Retvik was … Read more
Arkay’s eyes snapped open as something fluffy brushed against his arm. He’d stayed up late to play video games and quickly realized that he had overslept. Glancing at a nearby clock, Araky realised he had REALLY overslept. He’d gone to sleep at 7:30am and now it was 2:30pm. That was not at all normal for … Read more
“You’re going out again?” “Yeah, of course!” “But you just got back?” Kalis was holding a wicker basket, standing cheerily by the door. In the basket, there was a bottle of wine, as well as some cheeses and hams. It all looked rather tasty to anyone who liked to drink. “I know, I’m going out … Read more
“I feel bad for asking.” “Why?” “Well, it is a little bit unfair on you.” “I don’t mind though. If I didn’t want to, I’d tell you.” “Hm. I guess so. But still…” “But what?” “I… I do not know.” “Would you like a treat?” “Yes, I think I would. Hence the fact I took … Read more
“Hi Kalis, hi… oh hello!” Arkay got up out of his chair and stood up straight, not knowing who this new being was, standing alongside Kalis. “Heya Arkay!” Kalis beamed, holding the hand of the stranger. “Hey Stef, this is Arkay, who is technically my brother. Stef, Arkay, Arkay, Stef!” Arkay opened and closed his … Read more
Gath nodded a thank you as a waiter placed a basket of bread and some menus on the table of five in front of him. He, his partner Talmin and his daughter Rett sat on one side of the table, while their new friends Kuta and Trismit sat opposite them. Rett immediately picked up a … Read more
“Yay park time park time!” Gath smiled as he let go of Rett’s hand, letting her run off to her favourite thing in the world, a swing. The swing set was nothing special, in fact it was actually a little bit run down. But Rett absolutely loved the fact that the swing was made from … Read more
