Lilo was sitting in the lobby. She had a bowl of cut pineapple beside her, and her legs tucked under her dress. She was reading a book on dermatological conditions, and every now and then would dogear one of the glossy pages. She read quietly to herself, from time to time plucking a bit of fruit and munching on it. Only a few times did she have ( Read more... )

Lilo had taken a swim, had a chocolate pudding for lunch, and read a book. But she was still bored. She went back to her room to paint and listen to music. Nothing. Still bored. She looked around for something to do, then grinned when she saw her camera. She wound it, feeling something inside catch. It felt like there might be film in side ( Read more... )

Peter had discovered, if you looked around long enough, that you could usually find anything you needed in the hotel. He didn't know so much about needs, but he found paper and pen and carted it down to the lobby. He stocked up on snacks and Cokes from the bar, and sat down to work. He'd noticed, since he'd arrived, that none of his spider ( Read more... )

Bertie Wooster, late of Berkeley Square, London, could barely see a thing ( Read more... )

Susan…hadn't felt right since the cosmic storm. She guessed it was a pretty odd thing to go through and that the average human body simply wasn't designed to go through that kind of stress or pressure, but she'd thought that she'd be used to things by now. It had been almost a month, after all, and she was no closer to understanding the changes ( Read more... )

"Ash, if you so much as think about puttin' your lips to that tap I'll blister your lily-white ass." The Roadhouse's Matriarch/Owner warned her live-in customer as she left the bar room to get more pretzels and peanuts from the back. It sounded terrible-harsh, but she was actually in a better mood than usual, considering the post had come that day ( Read more... )

Ellie was trudging along the side of the highway, well. Not the side of it, she'd be easily spotted there. She was further to the side, skulking amongst the bushes, it was only a day ago she'd stolen the food from the soldier's bike but her stomach was screaming for more. She hadn't had a decent meal since she was in New Zealand. Before she'd ( Read more... )

The change in landscape was drastic, and that concerned Nyssa. The road that the curly haired woman travelled down had been full of vegetation only moments before. The planet that hosted this war was famous for its vast forests and she wondered if she had simply overlooked the deserts while she had researched the geography. She continued on though ( Read more... )

It was sandwich day. Lilo ran along the beach, barefooted and in her bright red swimsuit, peanut butter sandwich in hand. She swam into the water, holding the sandwich aloft, waiting until she saw the chubby orange fish ( Read more... )

Peter had been at the hotel for a week or so and, barring the whole couldn't leave thing, he kinda liked it. He'd never really had a vacation before and it was really nice to just relax and have no responsibilities. He had tried to call Aunt May and MJ and that...hadn't worked out so well, but he'd tried, right? You always got credit for trying ( Read more... )
