Coming of AgeThey snuffed out the stars in my eyes  And forced the smoke down my throat  Is this another rite of passage?  The transition, the initiation  When you’re standing alone,  On your own without a home  With a fist wrapped around your heart to  Keep it from breaking   
Turns out that my childhood heroes  My juvenile champions  My ancient mountains  They were human all along  They were flawed  They were unreliable  They were fragile  Nothing personal, of course  One day I’ll forgive them  For being human all along  Not soon or later, but someda Coming of Age

ClosureThe war was finally over, but the work had only truly begun for Aidan, king of Feruche and ruler of the Kegain. People spoke worriedly about his health, urged him to sit and take his ease, but he saw the pride and reassurance in their eyes when they saw him moving and making things move forward. Standing still was the last thing on the kerrazi’s mind, and his memories of the diablecrium were so fresh that even sleep was hard to tolerate. Though he was the last to bed, he was always the first to rise, his bare feet eating up the distance from the demon citadel to the far-off elven woods. The alliance was official for over a week now, but Closure

The Tale of Two TinkersCalloused fingers of sienna brown turned a small, wooden box over and shook it half-heartedly. Only a few, crumpled leaves of foxglove fell out and landed around his knees, looking more grey than green. Setting aside the box, the man picked through them but none would serve any purpose, not so much as a weak tea. "Add foxglove to the list," he called out in a gruff and well-worn voice as he shoved the small box back into place.   
Leaning back, Berke sighed and chewed quietly on his bottom lip. The snows had caught the man quite unawares that year, and a trip that should've taken two weeks had taken nearly a month now. The wagon's w The Tale of Two Tinkers

The Diablecrium Traitors to the crown underwent three days of torture before execution. It had been the law since the fourth kerrazi court established by Ebony Blackheart, and it had been carried out dutifully since then… until now. Aidan Sert’Tkea, descendent of the Kishi Clan and former prince of the Kegain, had withstood a week’s torment within the dungeons of Feruche. Countless hours of being beaten and whipped, dangling in chains by his wrists, locked under a two-by-six metal grate with the sun raining down fire on his skin; the same grate holding him prisoner as they filled the tiny grave with water. He was never allowed to sleep, The Diablecrium

So, Riley's up in the air as we speak. She made it to Denver alright, and I'm hoping she'll land in Omaha with her Batman cape on, one fist on her hip and the other held proudly in the air as she rides down the escalators. x3

I totally held it together at the airport. Totally bawled on the way home. XDD

Sitting here, back home, played with my dog for an hour and a half before getting tired. I'm scratching my brain and trying to remember what I did the last two and a half weeks. Rie, you might have to help me reconstruct some of this in my head, because half of it's already leaked out. 8D

Hee! Pukkah just laid out on the floor right now, just a bit tired. ^^ So'm I. Let's try this backwards: swam in the ocean and got sunburned, four days of epic geekdom at the Anime Expo, scratched eyeball, two days of Pirate Invasion and being ON A BOAT, the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas, screaming at Six Flags, the Zoo, Chinatown, Scholastic... and if we're doing this backwards, driving to LAX to pick up my best friend from Iowa, who flew two thousand miles to see me (though secretly, she only put up with me for a place to stay). >x3

Daggaburdo. 83

Even when she doesn't try, Rie's stimulated my writing brains, so hopefully I'll get some good stuff down in the next few days. :3 ...though, she also got me hooked on Bleach while she was here, so I may be jumping the gun with my idea of productivity. XD

...well, crap. What do I do now? :giggle:

No problem. :3 I had no idea those flowers were called 'Dutchman's Breeches'! The title was witty to boot. xD
