“This coffee tastes strange.” “That’s because it’s tea.” “Oh,” Eileen looked at the cup and plucked out a piece of tea leaf. “That explains all the bits in it. Oh, Jessica, you didn’t sleep at all, did you?” Smiled at Jessica’s curious look. “I heard you tossing and turning all night.” “I’m really sorry. DidContinue reading “Chapter 4.35 – Come Home”

Chapter 4.33 – Face the Beast
Jessica had returned to her house for the first time in days. She couldn’t stay away forever. She’d only taken a handful of clothing on that night she’d fled after facing that vampire, but it wasn’t just squeezing her blossoming body into Morag’s loosest clothing or sleeping on the couch at the GliTS HQ thatContinue reading “Chapter 4.33 – Face the Beast”
Chapter 4.31 – Piglet
Jessica had had a terrible night’s sleep. Tossing and turning, this way and that, on Pixie’s lumpy sofa bed. She could have gone back to her cosy bed in Willow Creek, but was still somewhat terrified that a monster lay in wait for her. The nightmares she’d had had further ruined her sleep. She wasContinue reading “Chapter 4.31 – Piglet”
Chapter 4.30 – Into Darkness
“It sure feels as if you have added a lot and taken away a lot,” Kitty said uneasily, looking at the pile of curls Faith had brushed up and the blunted kohl pencil. “Are you quite sure that I look good?” “Trust me,” Faith grinned back, replacing the scissors into their sheath. “You’re going toContinue reading “Chapter 4.30 – Into Darkness”
Chapter 4.29 – Dust
Note: allusion to suicide. With Leyla’s loose supervision, Broof and Lilith were allowed to take a stroll around the swamp docks. Together. Not holding hands or anything, but Broof had brushed his knuckles against Lilith’s arm once, accidentally on purpose, and she hadn’t snarled at him. He saw that as progress. They had reached aContinue reading “Chapter 4.29 – Dust”
Chapter 4.27 – A Spooky Story
Note: my game has the ‘occults keep losing their facial markings and eyes’ bug and I couldn’t be bothered to keep drawing them on manually, so there are inconsistencies in their pictures. Kitty’s second vermouth and her rendition of Flangeslap’s 5th piano concerto were rudely interrupted by the sound of Seth falling from the parapet.Continue reading “Chapter 4.27 – A Spooky Story”
Chapter 4.25 – Blossoms
Note: my game has the ‘occults keep losing their facial markings and eyes’ bug and I couldn’t be bothered to keep drawing them on manually, so there are inconsistencies in their pictures. After what had been a tiring day for all parties, Broof had been looking forward to his evening meal in the company ofContinue reading “Chapter 4.25 – Blossoms”
Chapter 4.22 – Flirt With Death
April’s towel kept slipping as she padded across the plush carpet towards Broof’s closet. Wyatt had turned in in the early hours – which is when Melinda went home – leaving April to silently exist in the house alone, trying to amuse herself. She was used to that though, that had been her whole lifeContinue reading “Chapter 4.22 – Flirt With Death”
Chapter 4.20 – The Chicken is Alive!
Lilith had been staring at the ceiling of her small wooden prison for hours, with only a slightly dazed chicken for company. But she’d had worse nights. The chicken had spent the last few hours trying to get its head through a tiny knot in the wood and Lilith had quickly tired of freeing theContinue reading “Chapter 4.20 – The Chicken is Alive!”
Chapter 4.14 – A Marigold Speciality
Before they’d even fully materialised, April was squealing at a pitch that only she could reach. She had run a circle of the small house while twittering excitedly, and had disappeared upstairs to unpack the contents of her small backpack. Wyatt, who had obviously seen it all before, stayed downstairs with Melinda who, true toContinue reading “Chapter 4.14 – A Marigold Speciality”
