Calligraphy was something that had always interested Saffron. It was a part of the Chinese culture, integrated into the culture of her world back home, the culture of the Alliance. For all that she was fluent in speaking and reading the language, she didn't get much practice in writing it, though she was familiar. Calligraphy, though, wasn't just ( Read more... ) -
Williams-McGarrett Bachelor Party at The Catscratch Club [dated to late November]
To Saffron's way of thinking, it was a given that any good bachelor party would be held at a strip club. Something about saying goodbye to being single and hello to a lifetime with the same person really needed a send-off involving drinking and sexy people taking their clothes off set to music and possibly a pair or two of boobs in the groom's face ( Read more... ) -

The past couple of days were sort of a blur for her. As time passed, more things came back to her, but Saffron remembered enough. She remembered what had happened. She remembered being trapped, in the pitch black amid rubble, terrified she was no longer on the island, that she'd left behind the people who meant more to her than she'd ever thought ( Read more... ) -

Saffron stretched her arms upward, fingers clasped together, and arched her back like a cat. She'd been at the club practicing for a while, through the afternoon hours, but it was getting on dinnertime, which meant it was time to quit. A quick trip home for a bath and change of clothes, and by then Xander was bound to be home, and they could go up ( Read more... ) -

By the time it was their turn to take the bathysphere up to the surface, Saffron was more than ready to be out of Rapture, and she had a feeling Lex felt the same way. It had been an exhausting several days, trapped down in that eerie city, and she was pretty sure she wasn’t going to be going back down there for a long, long while, provided the ( Read more... ) -

Yesterday, they'd finally come back up from Rapture, and Saffron had wanted nothing more than to lock herself away with her boyfriend and get caught up in him, for a long, long time. Even they needed to eat, though, and so today she'd left him to enjoy an afternoon nap at home while she went to pack up a basket dinner for them to bring back from ( Read more... ) -

Today was Xander's birthday, and Saffron had been planning for weeks to make sure it was his best yet. She'd made him take the day off from everything, and she'd done the same, so they could spend it together. In the morning he'd woken up to breakfast in bed, followed by a nice, lengthy - well, dessert, of sorts. They'd gone for a picnic lunch on ( Read more... ) -

Saffron had been healing, slowly but surely, ever since being injured on the space station, and she was real close to full recovery. Her voice was back to normal, which was a real gorram relief. Her ribs were almost there; maybe a couple of weeks more and she'd be fine. The fact of the matter, though, was that she and Xander had been together a ( Read more... ) -

She wasn't quite ready to get back to dancing yet, but Saffron still had work to do at the club, bookkeeping and the like. And even if she couldn't do any actual practicing, she could still look through the club's collection of iPods for songs and brainstorm about things like costumes and theme nights ( Read more... )
