LMM 53: First Come, First Served
Claimer: I do hereby claim all rights and responsibility for the characters in this series of vignettes because the Amaranthine Saga is mine.

Chapter Fifty-Three: First Come, First Served
When Jacques opened the door to Adoonah-soh Elderbough, he was unprepared on three levels. For her size, because the spokesperson for th...

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

Mood Stripes 108: Better
Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this audacious adventure… especially for the emotional one. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.
Chapter 108: Better
Kagome had agreed to stay, and she went one better by staying close.
She knew it was better because with each day, Sesshoumaru’s stripes lightened and brightened, ranging through a peaceful palette that was impossible to replicate with colored pencil...

Chapter Forty-Nine: Under the Influence
“What have you there?” Lapis asked in mellow tones.
Jacques blinked. He couldn’t remember picking up the pen, yet there was a sort of rune-thingie on t...
