Intersections
1245h, Suburbia
A kettle whistled merrily as it boiled over with enthusiasm for the tea which it would make.
Lily Walker hummed tunelessly, a smile upon her face as she bustled around the kitchen, her movements almost a blur as she went about her preparations.
Chocolate Fudge Surprise was the order of the day, and she was determined to get it right.
Outside, in the living room, the television droned on in monotonous fashion.
‘… and today, on the Afternoon News…’
The Peculiar Case of Ginerva Adams and the Charing Cross Fair
Ah yes, good sirs and madams, I bid thee welcome, and a good evening.
Now, come with me, come, come as we tiptoe quietly through the cracks of time, to pass unseen through the thronging crowds, to travel a little ways back in time to witness the strange, nay, nigh-miraculous events surrounding a certain girl, a Miss Ginerva Adams.
Ordinary, she’d be, I’m afraid. Don’t expect to see accessory limbs, or a second head, or strangely proportioned features of any sort. Nay, a normal little girl of six, she’d be. Young, and strangely lost.
Midnight Dawn
I.
We skipped the light fandango, turned cartwheels ‘cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick but the crowd called out for more.
With a groan, he flung his arm up to cover his eyes as the neon lights from his small window threatened to drive spikes through what was left of his brain. The cheering and screaming from the streets felt like nails on chalkboard, as did the blaring of the Imperial March from his handphone. Hardly the way to wake up, especially since he’d only just managed to get to sleep.
Dead of Night
Celestin sighed as he leaned against the grimy brick wall, swearing under his breath at his luck. It was the seventh night he’d been staking out this warehouse on the docks, and still no luck. And to add insult to injury, someone upstairs had felt him pitiful enough to start crying, and he was getting seriously wet despite his greatcoat.
Shoving his hands deep into the pockets of his coat, Celestin glared at the towering double doors from the shadows, willing something to happen so he could either get out of the rain and do something, or just get out of the rain and go home. He’d already been wondering over the last two nights if he was wasting his time with this… commission, and the weather was not helping his convictions.
Talks Over Whiskey
He smiled as the bartender cocked an eyebrow.
‘Can I have a shot of whisky, please. Suntory Hibiki, 30 years old, straight up.’
His grin widened as the bartender immediately turned to get a shot glass. He’d been mildly worried that the place wouldn’t have any of it, and wasn’t too keen on anything else at the moment. After all, ever since his first visit to New York, he’d figured he’d have to start things off with a nice, stiff drink if he wished to maintain whatever little sanity he still possessed.
Looking For Places To Hide
They were… irritating.
To one as used to the hardship and rigeurs of warfare as he was, he was actually mildly surprised that he could be this… unsettled… at such trivialities, but the fleshlings were slowly but steadily driving him insane.
Then again, the way things stood, they were probably not fully to blame.
