Hektor finds a door and then the hunter Kou'te-bpe steps back into a place he hasn't been in years. He has his weapons, his trophies, but nothing else. Everything that belongs to him that is not for war is Rhene's, now.

The smells are nearly overwhelming, and he stands still while he lets himself reacquaint with them. His skin is bronzed, where ( Read more... )

After closing their latest case and feeling decidedly anticlimactic about it, Mulder felt some light reading was in order. He'd been meaning to reread the entirely absurd, but equally interesting, book he'd bought at a sci-fi convention a few years ago, theorizing alien foreplay rituals; he'd lost it, however, somewhere in the recesses of his ( Read more... )

Wells is in a supremely foul mood this morning, thanks largely to yet another fruitless round of searching for Spoon. We're talking a real winner of a bad mood here, the kind of thing that drove other universes to go "MMM TASTY PROSIUM" as an alternative to letting the mood loose in the rest of the population ( Read more... )

Ace is tired. She looks it, too, when she comes through the back door, making a beeline for the notice board. Her shoulders slump just that little bit more when there aren't any notes for her. Nothing about Spoon ( Read more... )

Tegid was helping Llew find lodgings for the new arrivals. They were the Eothaeli, refugees who had resisted Meldron.  The houses on the crannogs and on the shore would be cozy this Sollen ( Read more... )

She looks a little nervous, as if through means completely illogical she had some clue that her time in this place is nearly over *coughmetacough*.

That said, she sits by the window and watches, waiting for any of her lovely friends/lovers/worshippers to come by.

There is a yautja in a bar.

Specifically, there's a yautja sitting on a table near one wall. She would be on a broken chair, but she needs to have room for her breastplate. She's still decently wearing other armor, a more battered set of interconnected plates, but she's busy trying to figure out how to attach her Security badge to her better piece ( Read more... )

...AKA, a "first entrance-y thing".

[OOM: Before Milliways.]Journeying across time, space and universes he arrives at this place ( Read more... )

Yesterday was so much less than ideal that Wells didn't bother going home. He left a note with the Bar for Annie saying that he'd be back as soon as he could manage, and he stayed in the room upstairs for as long as he could. Which didn't last long this morning, because the full moon begins in seven days, and that means he's got to be outside if he ( Read more... )

It isn't easy to have the apprentices that Master Kau has. If one of them isn't playing jokes the other one is making social blunders that embarrass him in front of clients and potential clients. The fact that they also chased his guest off two days early did not in the slightest help his mood ( Read more... )
