Lila returned a deadpan stare at Sella. Seriously?! “You just couldn’t resist, could you?” she managed after a few seconds of silence. Sella smiled back at Lila. “I’ve not been this excited in decades; of course I couldn’t resist! Now get your cute little behind over here so that we can get started.” “Are…those really necessary?” Lila eyed the chains dubiously. “It’s a ritual process;...
The stone stairs were cooler than the floor of the mausoleum as Lila descended, and noticeably rougher in texture once her feet touched down on the ancient stone. She eased herself down sideways at one point, avoiding a small pile of broken glass that had come from one of the overhead light fixtures when it had blown. A few other lights flickered erratically on the steps, and once she had...
At the back of the main building, her search around the front and sides having come up empty, Lila stood at the entrance to another walled-off section of the grounds, though these walls were natural, standing almost fifteen feet high. The hedge maze entrance was still open, though the maze itself was overgrown and had several larger trees growing out of its walls. She’d not heard back from Kori...
“Let’s see…hmmm…” Kori tapped his chin as he walked around the building, looking up and down as he did for any sign of an entrance like what Lila had wanted. So far, he’d walked around one side and the back, and hadn’t found but a couple stuck doors on the sides of the building. The windows were mostly intact, but glazed over with dirt, age, or plant matter, so he couldn’t see much on the...
I’m currently running a Call of Cthullu campaign that my players have been enjoying quite a bit, set in the long-ago times of…the late 1990s. I’ve been winging it for the most part, as I tend to do, and have managed to keep things mostly straight, which has been something of a miracle. Still, watching the players handle the insanity has been quite fun thus far. To keep things...
Releana stood still for several seconds as the other two hurried off toward their designated buildings. For a moment she had started to protest, but shook her head instead. “I’m not afraid, damn it! I’m better than this!” she thought, taking a deep breath before she headed toward the building on the left. It was the smallest of the three, and she hurried through the overgrown parking area...
So, this week marked the end of the latest Gundam series, Build Divers Re:Rise. This is the second series in this particular setting, and if you’ve seen the first series, you might have been turned off by it’s lackluster story and characters. To say it was a disappointment for me wouldn’t be an understatement; it lacked what usually makes a good Gundam series, even a more...
“What’s the matter, you two? I’m the spoiled rich girl, so I should be the one lagging behind! Aren’t you supposed to be some kind of treasure hunter and adventurer, Lila?” Releana’s haughty laughter trailed back down the steep hillside to the kerryn and elf that were struggling to keep up. Lila breathed heavily, sweating profusely even though she wore light clothes and a light day pack, and...
Hey, I now I’ve got a few people signed up on here, and wanted to know if you’re seeing notification on this post! Would appreciate you commenting here and letting me know if you see it!
Well, now that my birthday has passed (took last week off for a reason!) and the world’s done gone crazy, I suppose I should get another update on what’s been going on and what I’m planning going forward. As far as my life, there’s been little in the way of change at work; I work for a local ISP, and we’re classified as a utility, so basically an essential service. ...
