Tersa had been familiar with the Twisted Kingdom for centuries. Sometimes she spent long weeks or months with visions or dreams flooding in on her, wandering as she picked her way through them. She learned, or she showed others, what they needed to know. Once that was done, it gave her a measure of relief ( Read more... )

Please don't make me work...
Some busy days call for chocolate, or caffeine, or burying one's head under a pillow. On this particular occasion, Guppy is going for a very large toastie, containing cheese, mushrooms, corned beef, cucumber and lettuce.

"Look, I'm sorry but if you try and eat an entire turkey you cannot be surprised when you get stomach ache. We've done all the tests available and you're just going to have to... digest it ( Read more... )

She's downstairs by the front door as the sky outside Milliways
starts to lighten at sunrise. Happy, calm, and looking forward to this year's celebrations for more than the usual reason.
Waiting, and as soon as they're here, they'll set out.
