Double Trouble – Chapter 10 – Returning the Favor
Charlotte The sun was setting by the time we finally got back to the town. According to Reckt the gates and shops would both be closing soon. It wasn’t too late to get a bed or a meal, though… assuming we could get them both in the same location. Otherwise… Well, we did have some food stored in Mikaela’s Empty Bag. In fact, with Reckt now aware of at least most of our secrets, we didn’t really have much of a reason to hide that… Which meant I probably could have been munching down on some skewers or something while we were walking home if only I’d thought of it…

Double Trouble – Chapter 8 – A Surprising Connection
Charlotte I stared at Bonny the Bunny. She stared back, eyes wide and nose twitching. I nodded to myself, content with the cuteness, and placed her down on the ground. “Don’t go running now, you hear?” I warned her. “Or-” She ran the second she was on the ground, crashing right into a spider web in her blind rush to get away. “…Or I might not be able to protect you,” I continued, casually swiping my bloody dagger through the webbing. Of course, I was also superheating the blade to ensure it cut smoothly, so it didn’t take long at all to have Bonny free. “Now, you can run if…

Demon Queened (Remastered) – Chapter 7 – An Overdue Conversation
Devilla I stared at the bear standing before me. It was something like nine feet tall, with dark brown fur and lighter brown spikes extending from its spine and elbows. They looked remarkably sharp, but I doubted their sturdiness. I could likely snap the things off if it came down to it. The creature didn’t move during my examination. I could almost imagine that it was looking me over in turn, trying to decide if I was worth the trouble of feasting upon. Not an impossibility, actually, if it was anywhere near as intelligent as the horned wolves I’d fought. “You do not wish to fight me,” I warned it,…

Double Trouble – Chapter 7 – Call Her George
Charlotte It took a few seconds for Reckt to open her eyes and realize she wasn’t about to be eaten. When she did, her first reaction was to launch herself at me and Mikaela, arms flung out wide. Mikaela looked like she wanted to sidestep, but I grabbed the sleeve of her shirt to hold her in place as Reckt threw her arms around our necks. Mikaela could have pulled free, the cloth obviously wasn’t strong enough to hold out if the both of us put our all into it, but she didn’t so she must have felt at least a little guilty. She just stood there, awkwardly, while I…

Double Trouble – Chapter 6 – A Change in Perspective
Charlotte I ducked under a bit of webbing, privately wondering whether it was even worth avoiding the sticky strands anymore. They were literally everywhere at this point, and I was seriously considering the benefits of a small forest fire. Mikaela would probably shut me down if I brought it up, though. Too much chance of us losing control over it and all that… not that it would be difficult for us to put it out, but I guess there was something to be said for not burning a patch of the forest down to ash just because we got impatient. Instead, I ducked down and placed my hands upon the…
