Friday night was here, and the sound of video games could be heard from Vale’s living room. Visiting her tonight was an orange haired tabby cat demi. Kino wore his usual garb of stretchy green sweater and blue sweatpants. Comparatively, Vale was a very long and squishy naga, who was wearing a shirt that had a Nintendo controller on it with the phrase “press my buttons” on it. Obviously, the buttons were on her chest. IT was game night, and they’d been playing various game

Sarah was framed on either side by two white furred kitsunes. They were siblings that she met a while ago, and they had all just gotten done hanging out around the town. While Arashi and Kurohime were white tailed kitsune’s, Sarah was a regular human. Her dusty blond hair was covered by a hoodie that had white fox ears sown into it, and swishing behind her was a fake foofy white tail of her own. She had made it and attached it to her belt when she knew she was going to be spending the even

I always hated having to go to government places whenever doing a delivery. They rarely ever went well for me. Someone get angry, something was ‘missing’ and because I’m a human it was easy to just blame me over anything else. Lots of shooting the messenger. Looking up at this place gave me that paranoid feeling that someone could easily go bad. This was a ‘Monster’s Relations’ facility, and since I saw a lot of non-humans coming in and out of the facility, I

Gina had finally done it. Not only had she managed to get an interview with the government job, but she had made it past the preliminary interviews as well. So now she was sitting in the head of the department’s lobby, waiting for the final interview. Gina was a shorter human girl. She wore a dress shirt and a long skirt, and had a red bow settled in her dark black hair. As she sat there waiting, she couldn’t help but wonder who the person in charge was like. Were they nice; mean? It

    
“… and as stated at the beginning of my report, this is my final update on the hive mind entity known as Mani. Attached to this report are my resignation documents. Thank you for my time with the I.X.F.”


    
Marcus leaned back in his chair after pressing the send button on his computer. He’d been sent here to study and learn more about the alien hive mi

“Arashi, I’m bored. Do a magic trick.”
Cassy rolled onto her back on the bed, her pink hair making a waterfall that flowed from the bed to the floor. The smaller girl had invited Arashi over to spend time with the kitsune, but she had failed to think of anything to actually do once he had gotten here. It had gotten to the point where Arashi had settled into one of Cassy’s chairs and was reading a book; just idly enjoying the time together.
His ears did perk up when sh

Every day felt the same to Jacob. His daily routine only varied depending on if he had to go to work or school. He worked as a cashier in the local grocery store, so the most excitement he’d get is when someone would get snippy at him for not moving fast enough. On the flip side, his college classes were no better at keeping him engaged. They were the basic courses; not even what he was hoping to major in. The days seemed to merge together, and Jacob felt like he wasn’t amounting to

Terrance sighed as he looked at the empty town. He really hated it when he didn’t realize the town, he’d entered was empty. Terrance was a merchant who traveled from town to town in order to sell various kinds of jewelry. The problem is that he gets very excited about the jewelry he wants to sell, so he doesn’t consider whether there is anyone around to buy his products.
This usually meant that if Terrance stumbled on a town that’s been abandoned, he’ll accidenta

There was something strange about the village. Adrian had come home in the early hours of the morning, but despite it being so early the village felt… quieter than usual. There wasn’t any sound of animals starting to wake up, nor did he notice Ms. Buligard setting up her stales of fruits. Usually there were one or two children running around; having snuck out to play when they shouldn’t. Yet today none of the usual sounds of life were heard.
Adrian had been away on a trip to

You know, as much as I adore eating humans and making them a part of me, I can’t help but appreciate how innovative they are. They’re wonderfully gifted at making things, and this mirror is no exception. I’ve been working through this lovely little village I found, but its always nice to take a moment to admire oneself when you get the chance. After all, look at me. My hair is quite long, flowing down and resting just above my butt, and its got a lovely dark green color that ma

Kino said not to drink the punch, and Kirbster was quite glad to have been warned. The white-haired fox boy rested a hand on his distended stomach, the belly full of other squirming prey. He was a smaller fox boy, and had a soft curve to his hips that was quite possibly due to his diet of cute prey. It hadn’t been that large of a party, there were only 10 people here, including Kirbster and Kino, but most of the party had been… relocated at this point thanks to Kino’s little t

A cool breeze flowed through the forest as Kay, Kreia and Elisa worked on gathering fruits and berries for the banquet tonight. It was the start of summer, and the harpy village that Kreia and Elisa were apart of wanted to celebrate. This meant that everyone was going to provide for the evening’s events. While Kay wasn’t a harpy, he was considered a part of the village. It didn’t help that he liked helping the cute harpies, so when the two harpy sisters told him about their pla

It was a slow, quiet night at the Dandy Cat Bar and very few people seemed to be around. It was a rare night that Kino decided to come out for drinks, and he couldn’t help but count his blessings when he slipped into the mostly empty bar. He wasn’t one for crowds, so a nice quiet night where he could snag a drink or two after a long day of selling potions felt like a nice treat. After all, it was important to let loose every now and then and enjoy the town he lived in. Besides, who k

The sound of weapons clashing, groans of pain, and an announcer’s declaration of victory filled Julien’s living room. It was early in the morning and sitting on Julien’s couch was a short, curvy redheaded girl. Cara had stayed the night playing various games with Julien, but it seemed that she had risen early this morning in order to practice. She was playing an obscure fighting game that came out recently. Julien usually was able to acquire more indie titles, and he loved tryi

    

The forest was soft and quiet this evening. The only sound that Cara could hear was the crunch of foliage beneath her feet. The sun was rapidly setting and while she hated to admit it; she was very lost. She had been spending the last few days camping in the woods with her friends, but today she wanted to go exploring. Enjoy the

Six months. It had been six months since Kino had heard from his fiancé. He had been tending to a few potions and projects the previous night when he had gotten the excited phone call from Tzelle. She quickly explained that something had happened that had caused her to be unable to really… be herself during the last six months, and she’d finally gotten freed. When Kino heard this, he couldn’t help but grin and tease her. He knew
