> ==>The snow had gotten heavier. Rose walked out into it. It was better than being on fire, but slow going. She let one needlewand slide back into her hand, and pointed it at the ground. Nothing. At the air. Nothing. She wasn't going anywhere her own feet didn't deign to carry her. Her powers were well and truly blasted back to square one ( Read more... )

"One... Two... Three!" Taking a deep breath, Ippo ripped off the large bandage taped to his side in one quick motion. His tempered skin still smarted and grew red from the tape, but it was no worse than a pesky mosquito bite. Now that he could finally get a good look at it, every scratch had scabbed over and it took a lot of self-control not to ( Read more... )

[from here]Niikura let the door leading in from the previous hallway stay open as he slipped into the next hall, flipping his flashlight on as he did so. It was completely silent, a contrast to the soft undercurrent of chatter that he usually heard as he made his way to wherever he needed to be. It was also kind of creepy, realizing that he was out ( Read more... )

[From here.]Being down this way certainly did nothing for Peter's nerves. The last time he had come near this part of the hospital was when him and Harry...yeah. Right about there was where the shapeshifters came in ( Read more... )

[From here.]Right as he'd been leaving the block, Harvey had come across none other than Peter. Not that it could really be called that when they hadn't even talked to each other, but seeing the kid had answered a few questions. First of all, it seemed that Peter wasn't planning on going down to the basement, both because he hadn't approached him ( Read more... )

[From here.]Despite his initial reluctance to get out of bed, Harvey was still one of the first people out into the hall. He didn't know if everyone else was just being lazy or if it was because he hadn't spent as much time getting all his belongings in order, but it didn't really matter. It was better this way, when he didn't have to slip around ( Read more... )

[From here.]He had reached the meeting point in less than a few minutes and there was still not another patient to be seen. Castiel paused, standing near the wall as he moved his flashlight up and down the corridor. There was nothing, not the sound of a shadow slipping through the dark; not the whisper of something less than human ( Read more... )

[From here.]As Castiel exited the room block he'd been assigned to, it occurred to him that Gabriel had not caught up with him this time around. That was for the best. He had a difficult time shaking his brother off in this place, seeing how he couldn't disappear at the snap of a finger. If he'd had to bring his brother along on his lesson with ( Read more... )

[From here.]It seemed the he was one of the first out tonight, though Castiel was not surprised that he had adapted to this routine so quickly. Heaven had involved far too much routine, and while being able to use his wings would have sped up this process a noticeable amount, he could at least make the nightly walk go by as swiftly as possible ( Read more... )

Sora greeted the night with mixed feelings. It would be nice to have Neku as a roommate from now on, but it also meant losing Minato and Roxas. His Other had left this place before and Sora knew that he could manage without him, but there was still something about it that left him feeling... not empty, but like he was missing something. As for ( Read more... )
