Merlin sat in the sandbox of the play structure at the park. Normally it was where the smaller children played, but he had picked a time where most of them were either in school or napping. He sat cross-legged, unaware, really, of how it might look strange for a grown man to be sitting there. He was there practicing something ( Read more... )

The dreams were so vivid and real. Morgana could not be stopped and Arthur lay on the ground, dead. The faint sound of Morgana's victories laughter echoing in the halls of Camelot as Merlin stood by, useless to help ( Read more... )

Something is not as it usually is in the village. Christopher doesn't feel any different personally, but something is definitely affecting a lot of other people. Something that is good for business, admittedly, but not right ( Read more... )

The Masquerade Ball was different, this was a party for adults and Buffy had wanted it to be a little bit like the Ball in Labyrinth because seriously who didn’t think that David Bowie’s Jareth was the sexiest ever? So the entry for the adult party was more glamorous (at least Buffy hoped) and the interior continued that theme. There was an area ( Read more... )

At a point between the academy, park and forest stands a tree. In the tree sits a human-sized faerie with long, curling black horns and a flowing black and green dress. She watches the comings and goings of the humans from her (supposedly) safe distance. Despite her outward calm, her heart races every time she sees a glance cast her way.

The General Store was a small enough establishment that it almost felt like a shop back home in Camelot. There were still vast differences, of course, such as electricity and the lack of various animal parts being sold at a premium, but it wasn't as grand as the grocery store or even the book store to warrant a 'new-age' vibe. Of course, there wasn ( Read more... )

Glinda was all but skipping through the park, licking on an ice cream cone. It was so beautiful here in, what she learned, was called Spring. She took a seat in the grass by the lake, watching the children search for candy filled plastic eggs. Why, she had no idea, but to witness such unabashed joy and glee was always a pleasure. Her smile ( Read more... )

It was quite a beautiful day outside and Robin decided to make the most of it. The park seemed like a good enough spot as he let his dog, Lina, run around and amuse herself. He sat on a bench under a large oak tree and was whittling away at some arrows. While he could go buy some at the dojo, Robin enjoyed making his own. Fortune rewarded those who ( Read more... )

Buffy had learned long ago that she could do more with the help of others than by herself. Sure, she bossed people around and was the General in a lot of ways with the others that helped both in Sunnydale and other places but she knew as she stood at the entrance to the lobby and looked into the ballroom, that this wouldn't have been pulled off ( Read more... )

When Richard Castle came to consciousness, he immediately knew that something was wrong. The bed underneath him wasn't his own, and it wasn't Kate's either. It was entirely unfamiliar. Without opening his eyes, he stretched a hand across the bed under the sheets. No one was in bed with him, that was a positive sign. He was pretty sure no amount of ( Read more... )
