006: Bound
There is only one way to truly disarm a mage, it is said - you must control the hands. Some take this rule literally, chopping off limbs when faced with a powerful opponent, but sometimes that just doesn't work ( Read more... ) -
005: Nudity
The first time was fairly early in their partnership.
The second day, actually. She was thirteen. He... very much wasn't. She was just out of training. He... wasn't. She was vivacious and loud and talkative and a live wire. He... was not. But Bear was a talented shape-shifter, and Katya was slated to become the Moscow Night Watch's next ( Read more... ) -
004: Business
"So... what do you do?" She peers down the bridge of her nose through glasses her eyes have been charmed to need for the time being (much to her extreme annoyance). The questioner doesn't appear at all impressed with her posturing, a thick-set man in the oppressive uniform of Soviet Russia in all of its officialdom. She knows she doesn't present ( Read more... ) -

She thought about throwing herself on Olga's mercy. Truly she did. Planned on it, for at least the first half of the trek back to the bar. Maybe it was the ache in her head, or the desire to go un-lectured, but instead of dragging herself to the heavily warded flat she could find blindfolded and concussed, she found herself outside her own door ( Read more... ) -
003: Violence
"To the left!" She almost felt rather than heard the roar behind her, and the grit under her paws dug in and she dived, obligingly, the rather nasty spells aimed for her head sailing harmlessly away to her right. Her snarl now a rumbling laugh she charged, teeth and claws and rending fire destroying the Dark Other given unto her as prey ( Read more... ) -
002: Paradox
Her life, her world, is one of paradoxes ( Read more... ) -
001: Millitime
When she first learned of it, she used it and abused it like any other unexpected weapon that comes to hand in the unending struggle against the Dark. Momentary breaks to catch her breath would become full recoveries. Catnaps became lazy sprawls enjoying the morning light creeping up the wall and fading into afternoon. Snagged mouthfuls of food ( Read more... ) -

Every day, without fail, ever since she was let loose from the infirmary, Katya has been searching for a way out of the Bar at the end of the Universe. Perhaps it isn't healthy, this refusal to believe what Olga's already told her bluntly, but ( Read more... ) -

The world of the Twilight is utterly bizarre. Even Others know this - the blazing sky, the grayed out surroundings, the blue moss growing here and there and sometimes everywhere ( Read more... )
