Rumorish Postscript. They’re also looking at the short stories in the Songs of the Amaranthine collection. Wouldn’t that be grand? ::twinkle::

Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine.

Chapter Seventy-Nine: No Go

LMM 77: Forward

Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine.

Chapter Seventy-Six: In the Great Green Room
Jacques arrived with his cortege. They escorted him toward the chair in the naproom where Tsumiko rocked Kyrie. Finding the floor was absurdly squishy, Jacque...

Chapter Seventy-Five: Three More Words
Jacques contemplated the breadcrusts and kipper brine on Sansa’s counter. The overgrown battler would undoubtedly track the wreckage to him, but that was a pro...
Mood Stripes 110: Preferred
Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this audacious adventure… especially for the one who’s accustomed to questing. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.
Chapter 110: Preferred
“You got a preference?” Inuyasha asked. “Another dragon, maybe?”
Sesshoumaru looked away, not trusting his voice.
“No,” said Kagome. “Something else. But what?”
“There are twin-tails in these mountains,” said Kohaku.
The monk sa...

Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine.

Chapter Seventy-Four: Hush Your Mouth
Jacques was distracted by the smoothness of the dragon’s skin. Rich brown, without any trace of ash or stubble. Under his fingertips, Lapis’ mouth curve...
