Tonight in the banquet hall one large table was at center stage, lit by an overhead chandelier, its pure crystal facets reflecting the glow of the tall, tapered candles that flickered along the length of the table. A pure white tablecloth was draped across its surface, each place setting an elegant assemblage of translucent porcelain, sterling ( Read more... )

Remus had spent the last three hours wandering the grounds. The air felt chilled, though he couldn't see his breath under the bright moon. No matter which path he took, whether he found himself on the road again or not, he always ended up back on the lawn of the hotel. He dropped his bag in the grass and jammed the heels of his hands into his eyes ( Read more... )

That, Mrs Peel decided as she strolled up to the bar, had not gone well. She leaned on the bartop. "Whiskey, neat," she said to the bartender as she ran over the evening's events in her mind ( Read more... )

After retrieving his key from the bellboy, Ford paused in the lobby to take stock of his situation. He was in a hotel. That was easy enough. He had no idea what planet he was on, what time he was in, or if any of this really existed (it was entirely possible he had been too late in saving himself from the destruction of Earth and that this was just ( Read more... )

Ford chased after Arthur. Of all the stupid Earth-men he had to befriend, his had to get his house knocked down today. Why Arthur was so attached to his damn dwelling Ford would never know, but Arthur was chasing after it to his certain doom. Ford was running low on energy, as well -- those beers were certainly kicking in nicely. The good news was ( Read more... )
