LMM 66: Rubbish
Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine. (Which means I should probably behave myself since anything I say or do could be taken as canon.) Indulge the lot of us, especially the one who’s used to getting his way.
Chapter Sixty-Six: Rubbish
“Surely not. My duties don’t…”
“Your arms,” repeated Hisoka Twineshaft, already shifting his hold, making the transfer.
Unable to escape, Jacques bore up und...
LMM 65: Surely Not
Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine. (Which means I should probably behave myself since anything I say or do could be taken as canon.) Indulge the lot of us, especially the favorite uncle.
Chapter Sixty-Five: Surely Not
Jacques needed a moment to unfreeze, then scuttled into the settee’s corner.
“You must be Jacques Smythe.” The newcomer pitched his voice to soothe. Perhaps for the sake of...

RELEASE DAY – Songs #3
Songs of the Amaranthine is a collection of short stories set in Forthright’s Amaranthine universe. Before the Emergence, the clans were nothing more than whispers and mysteries and legends and lore. But every so often—in out-of-the-way places or shockingly close to home—an unsuspecting person stumbled into a fateful encounter with someone who was decidedly other. An eclectic collection, spanning continents and centuries. Tales of adventure, discovery, friendship, rescue, belonging, and love....
LMM 64: Come into My Parlor
Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine. (Which means I should probably behave myself since anything I say or do could be taken as canon.) Indulge the lot of us, especially for the one with a mission.
Chapter Sixty-Four: Come into my Parlor
Downstairs was warmed by candlelight. Various parlors overflowed with strangers with tails. And not the sort Jacques flaunted.
“What ho?” he objected. The...
LMM 63: Languor
Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine. (Which means I should probably behave myself since anything I say or do could be taken as canon.) Indulge the lot of us, especially for the trusting one.
Chapter Sixty-Three: Languor
Jacques relaxed everything—languid, but far from mindless. For instance, after close contemplation of the embroidery on Mark’s collar, Jacques concluded that the crest Arg...

I “squid” you not
Snack Adventurously. Squid Peanuts, folks. I’m sure Kimiko would dare. How about you?

LMM 62: To the Cask
Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine. (Which means I should probably behave myself since anything I say or do could be taken as canon.) Indulge the lot of us, especially for the one who may have missed a cue or two.
Chapter Sixty-Two: To the Cask
Rather high-flown, but if Jacques had a name like Valorous or Vigorous or Vainglorious, he might’ve waxed equally poetic.
Valor’s eyebrows arched....
Mood Stripes 109: Nomadic
Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this audacious adventure… especially for the one who’s only half joking. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.
Chapter 109: Nomadic
It was only meant to be one day. Walk into the mountains, far from any villages, in hopes of encountering a youkai to saddle. But Kagome noticed something important. “I’ve missed this.”
They all had. They’d quested for so long, it was p...
