Note: A little gruesome. When Faith had imagined Britechester, with its stuffy old buildings, fancy architecture and halls full of nerds, she hadn’t imagined that she’d ever go there, not with her terrible grades. Unless she got employed as a cleaner or as a stripper for a frat party, or something. And Blondie was neverContinue reading “Chapter 4.04 – Puffy”

Chapter 3.48 – Flickering Lights
While Jessica’s cohorts figured out how to safely dismount from their precarious people tower, Jessica had subtly checked the house. As well as ensuring that the coast was clear, she was looking for clues; any sign as to the reasoning behind Ralf’s fate, anything he’d left behind. Her search turned nothing up. Nothing at all.Continue reading “Chapter 3.48 – Flickering Lights”
Chapter 3.44 – Strawberry
Note: drug use/influence April was full of bubbles and rainbows. She had to admit that she couldn’t really taste the strawberry flavour of her magic tea, but it was a pretty colour and smelled super yummy. And it was definitely magical! After one sip, everything went a little fuzzy and soft around the edges. AfterContinue reading “Chapter 3.44 – Strawberry”
Chapter 3.43 – More Meat
Seth Grimm had faced a number of arduous challenges in his time on the planet, from false accusation to imprisonment, but he’d take another three decades in solitary confinement if, for once, he could just get his bloody fledgling out of the door on time. It had taken almost an hour to get to thisContinue reading “Chapter 3.43 – More Meat”
Chapter 3.40 – Irritant
Jessica’s scalp was so itchy. When she’d first been presented with her MAD hat she’d felt pretty good in it. She was fully starting to embrace the ‘wear whatever makes you happy’ mantra of her fellow GliTS, almost starting to like her starched, polyester poodle skirt and the little static shocks she got periodically fromContinue reading “Chapter 3.40 – Irritant”
Chapter 3.35 – Question Everything
Jessica jolted herself awake a second before her face would’ve hit her desk. She shook her head and gave herself a hard smack on the cheek, but it was a poor substitute for a full energy bar. The previous night had taken its toll. After Beth had arrived – with a little old lady inContinue reading “Chapter 3.35 – Question Everything”
Chapter 3.30 – Gutted
Disclaimer: Death. Gruesome. Humour in poor taste. The grey man would not shut up. “Jess!” he called, hopping to her other side as she turned away from him. “I can prove that I exist and that you’re not crazy. You need to follow me.” “Is following a delusion to prove its existence the less crazyContinue reading “Chapter 3.30 – Gutted”
Chapter 3.29 – Mystery Woman
On Gloria’s request, Beth had followed Wilbur from the frilly dollhouse that was the Wangshaft Manor. The geriatric gent was incredibly paranoid so tailing him had to be subtle. Thankfully, Beth was skilled at avoiding detection. She, like Gloria, hadn’t expected Wilbur to actually go where he said was going. An incident involving an unattendedContinue reading “Chapter 3.29 – Mystery Woman”
Chapter 3.28 – Hard-Earned Hat
The forest of Forgotten Hollow, miles from the nearest town and therefore largely unaffected by light pollution, was the darkest place Jessica had ever been. Other than that time she’d hidden in a crate for half a day to infiltrate that mink farm, that is. This situation definitely trumped that one; she could move herContinue reading “Chapter 3.28 – Hard-Earned Hat”
Chapter 3.20 – Deadbeat Dad
Wyatt had arrived back home after his fruitless training session with Broof, to have April latch to him like a limpet. She was bubbling with excitement to work on the potion again, to learn about all the different ingredients, to theorise about what might work in the cure potion and to ask him a hundredContinue reading “Chapter 3.20 – Deadbeat Dad”
