Simon Chicago didn't really intend to go out and have an adventure. In fact, he rarely ever intended to do anything, as he was a dog of simple needs: mostly he just liked to eat things he thought were good, chase the occasional stick if he could get someone to throw for him, and then go home and have his tummy rubbed. He could not, however, get ( Read more... )

The device was most curious, and the moving pictures she'd seen it throw were a true marvel of the isle. Unfortunately, Janet was fast running out of ideas of how to make it do that again ( Read more... )

There were a lot of things Tony wanted a look at on this island, but given that he kept circling back to the caves every hour or so it wasn't happening.

Joey loved the stage more and more every lesson. Standing right in the middle, arms spread wide, taking his loyal minions under his wings and imbuing them with every. single. little. thread of acting talent that he possessed. That was the good part - the adoring looks he received (he chose to perceive them that way, anyhow), the rapturous applause ( Read more... )

There came a time when people needed to face their fears. Azkadellia was aware of that and after almost two months on the island she had finally decided to return to the place where she had arrived. The caves.

She had quite liked exploring them back in the O.Z. with DG (never going too far in and always remembering the way home, of course), but the ( Read more... )

"Squee?" asked Zoing from his perch atop the possible-wooden-clank-to-be ( Read more... )

Despite the fact that his personal life had recently gone more than a little crazy, Lee still went on IPD patrols every day. It was a good way to clear his head-- a distraction-- even without much to do during them than hammer out the details of the idea that he and Sheppard had come up with ( Read more... )
