Jim didn't have much to pack but what he had was all stuffed into his bags. All that was left was to wait around for his portal. It was scheduled for later tonight for some reason and after seeing that the only other portal back home was in a month's time, he'd had to take it ( Read more... )

Taking care of Natalie's cat meant Jim tended to get woken up way too early for his liking. That had happened this morning when Moxy decided to just thump his tail against Jim's face until Jim had sneezed and cursed. Moxy, of course, hadn't given a damn. He'd just been pleased to have his temporary human up so he could be fed ( Read more... )

His mother wanted to come to graduation ( Read more... )

Jim had pretty much repressed most everything that had happened to him over the past few weeks. No one had really asked him about it so that just made it easier to push it down and forget. He had other things to deal with anyway. Namely, graduation was less than a month off and he was going to have to make a decision on what he was going to do ( Read more... )

So, the island seemed to be up to some old tricks. Jim had to merely look out the window to know that something wasn't right. It didn't take more than seeing a pterodactyl in the sky to let Jim know that whatever had been affecting the island was getting worse ( Read more... )

Jim was pretty much done with the island at this point. Between his girlfriend being a boyfriend and Cade being...respectable, he'd figured out something was going on but there didn't seem to be any real panic or uproar over it. Things just seemed to be happening with no real explanation besides 'damn island' so he was kind of at a loss ( Read more... )

Jim hadn't realized something was weird on the island today. That was probably because he'd slept pretty much all day and then lazed around bed until...pretty much right now. He'd finally gotten himself out of bed and gotten himself dressed. He was thinking about going out, maybe seeing what was going on in town or maybe even finding a place to ( Read more... )

Most of the time, Jim could roll with the island's punches. He could be a girl or a child or something and not be that affected in the aftermath. But after something like that? Well, he was a little grouchy about a few things. He didn't really like having his whole personality changed, thanks. Stupid island ( Read more... )

"What's good about being burly?
If you ask me, it's a cover for being girlie."That voice again. Jim had heard it before and had chalked it up to random exhaustion. But now? Now, he was hearing it again and it seemed to be mocking him. Jim glanced around the room, looking for a gremlin or maybe some talking animal who typically was a student but ( Read more... )

Look down, you big clown.Jim...didn't recognize that voice. He'd been sitting at his desk, playing one of those idiotic games on his phone and the sound of that voice had him spinning around in his chair, looking for who might have dared to call him a clown. Room was empty though ( Read more... )
