Dammit. He was hungry again.

Not that he ever stopped being hungry, but it could be ignored for a while after he'd had a chance to devour something. Though Heat had managed to get that meal the night before, the animal hadn't been all that large. The Institute seemed capable of curbing his hunger to some degree (he didn't think he could have ( Read more... )

Weapons in hand, Heat was out in the hall the moment the doors opened. There had to be something, a scent in the air that might alert him to the presence of one of Landel's creations. His hunger wouldn't be denied for another night. Though he was still without his flashlight, that didn't really matter. His other senses should be enough to find ( Read more... )

Visitors? The hell was that supposed to mean?

Heat's curiosity allowed him to be led from the courtyard (and his riveting conversation with that woman) back inside to the front of the building. This wasn't one of the usual activity rooms, but something that resembled a sort of lounge where the only 'activity' seemed to involve sitting around. ( Read more... )

Getting up before the 7-11s opened on Sunday was anathema to any right-thinking man. Sangamon Taylor was no exception. When he wasn't on a field trip to Nowheresville. Where the locals were unconvinced that the Pope was going to personally write them a strongly worded letter if they had fresh Coke with their pancakes. Moving from bed to couch ( Read more... )

"-na-"

… Viridian red buildings; clear water rushing-blood red running and then somewhere else; raining now, raining so hard it rained through bones, sounded like a drum-beat or a klaxon or Cait with his tail stuck in a socket…

"Han-"

… Insistent rain, more like Barret's gun-fire or pebbled sand against glass or both, loud and pounding and ( Read more... )

[ from here ]"The pharmacy should be right here," Naminé announced, grasping at the door knob once she and Riku reached their destination. The night had been uneventful, and she hoped it would stay that way, so that was why Naminé made sure that she opened the door slowly to make sure there wasn't anything else inside. Nothing happened, so she ( Read more... )

[portaled from here]Without questioning why Zero had bothered to move ahead of them in the first place, Heat instantly took up the lead again when asked. He opened the door he was shown to, stepping inside... to find himself in a room with several strange machines and a weird odor - some sort of odd chemical and fabric ( Read more... )

[from here]Heat weighed his options as he stepped into the hall. He could go left, head outside and see if one of those birds came down for him to make a meal out of again, or he could go right and head toward the main hall - see who showed up. While he was hungry, it was more likely that monsters would be there at any point, while patients would ( Read more... )

[M109]The return from the Doyleton trip had brought with it a resolve Minato hadn't really been expecting. His conversation with Leon, and their exploration of the electronics shop in town, had renewed his interest in finding a music player for himself, and he spent a good portion of time after dinner thinking about the music room next to the Sun ( Read more... )

Maybe she should go snatch up her patient file? Possessions, too. Yuffie'd never say no to free stuff, even if it was a bunch of crap from a lie of a life. If she was lucky, she'd get somethin' handy. Handy like a cellphone, or, hell, even a laptop! Yuffie wasn't a technical genius at the best of times, preferring to leave all that ( Read more... )
