And there is no long con, there is no flash of smoke.  There isn't even a fake mustache in attendance.  He's quietly, simply gone.

[it has been such an incredible honor, you guys. <3]

Believing one's child to be more advanced than they actually were was a fine tradition of parenthood, and like most fine traditions, William was inclined to dismiss it out of hand, or at least expose it to a great deal of skepticism. He'd read the literature.

So he resolutely did not believe that what Olivia was trying to say was babae, a ( Read more... )

The saying was, ‘they grow up so fast’. Sybil had heard it a number of times in conversations with other mothers, with other breeders of swamp dragons, as applied to any manner of small creature. The original intention, of course, was that the phrase be applied toward children. It pained Sybil, how accurate it was ( Read more... )

After another round of clinic stays and general near death of his husband, Moist was feeling a little dissatisfied with said husband and the Island in general. And yet, as always, they seemed to work it out just fine.

As much fun as they have playing war, tensions running high in the group threaten to overshadow the various joyful reunions. Quatre, meanwhile, is adorable, and gets to not only see his Gundam again, but his one true unibanged love.

August 2009/Summer A.C. 195:
Quatre Winner, pilot of Gundam Sandrock, wakes up in familiar territory with one expected and one unexpected friend in toe- Duo Maxwell, pilot of Gundam Deathscythe, and his totally unacclimated for post-industrial-revolution-living partner, Moist von Lipwig. After one of the most horrifically embarrassing wake up calls ( Read more... )

Sybil had only ever been given to worrying about her husband. Finances, politics, fashion, these had never concerned her.
