After a month on the island, there are still Good days and Bad days. The Bad days mostly had to do with dinosaurs and stitches and endless fucking rain, and being pretty sure that he was going to die here, which is never a nice feeling for an eighteen year old kid to have. Europe had had its ups and downs but Cooper had always known that Scotty ( Read more... )

Nate Archibald upholds the assumption that he is just a pretty face and goes sailing in what he doesn't know is the beginnings of a monsoon. When he tries to take it back, things go from bad to disastrous. Thankfully, the raging waves pummel him into the shore of the second island, where he takes refuge under a shipwrecked ( Read more... )

So the last thing that Cooper can clearly remember is seeing Jenny in that outfit (he still hasn't quite come to terms with finding Jenny hot, but it's getting easier and easier all the time). Jenny was hot and then that creepy, creepy French dude turned up and bye bye Jenny, and Cooper isn't really into examining how shitty that made him feel, ( Read more... )

The results of the latest Island Council election were in, and it was time to celebrate, not only the results, but the process itself. And given the number of hardships they endured on the island, a celebration was something ( Read more... )

The thing with babies was, they grew - and they grew fastDevon and Ellie were doctors, they knew the rate Madeline would be growing at, when her check-ups were needed, when her milestones - both medical and personal - were coming up. Together, they were an intelligent pair of parents who would do anything for the kid they loved with everything they ( Read more... )

We all have our origin stories. Ask most superheroes around the block, and they'll tell you they trained long and hard to get where they are now. Maybe they had their very own Mr. Miyagi or maybe they just had the time and resources to dedicate themselves to a life of having their kiester handed to them every other night of the week ( Read more... )
