Feather Quill in an Ink Pot

many years ago, on a picturesque, sun-drenched Caribbean island, I slowly slid my knife from its sheath, hoping no one would notice the suspicious movement under my coat. Today is the day, I decided. Today is the day to finally...

  • Of History

    Added by Winter Pronk

    James rubbed his eyes and blinked the sleep from them slowly turning his head towards his alarm clock and trying to focus the harsh red light. "5:30 AM.. " He grumbled "I don't have to be up for another hour" He hadn't slept well all week, ever since he had met that mysterious girl in the park. It had been a Sunday, and James was busy working away on his thesis for his masters degree. It was a tedious process and he found the park cleared his head and helped him think. "Hey Mister," the girl had called to him "I think this belongs to you!" She ran up to him with a photograph.

    Added by Winter Pronk

    Scruffs, for the most part, was a shy husky. He'd been homeschooled most of his life and so never had many opportunities to meet people, much less make friends. So when it came time to start high school he was understandably nervous. On his first day in Scruffs was stunned at the sheer number of other people, and furries he saw. Cats, Dogs, Bunnies, Dragons and so many more. He swallowed hard and started making his way to his first class of the day... Math... he'd always hated it.

The professor ushered his way into the classroom, a tall gentleman probably in his late 60s wearing a crisp suit and a pair of thick spectacles. He had a firm no-nonsense look about him which was echoed in his expression. He walked confidently to the front of the class and quickly wrote and equation on the board. "Uck, Algebra" Scruffs thought to himself, "I am the worst at that". "I am a firm believer in learning by doing" Started the professor, "As such, you will be called upon frequently to work on problems at the front of the class.. You there, at the back, come up here and solve this for us" Scruffs blood drained from his face as he realized the professor meant him he felt his legs turn to jello as he shakily rose from his seat. He wanted to cry, or scream... he wasn't sure which yet... Read more...
