LMM 48: Speaking from Experience
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 is entirely susceptible.
Chapter Forty-Eight: Speaking from Experience
The next time Lapis warbled, Jacques didn’t jump away. However, he made sure to keep Argent between him and the business end of the drag...
Mood Stripes 107: Appreciable
Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this audacious adventure… especially for the one who likes to travel. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.
Chapter 107: Appreciable
Sesshoumaru dipped, but not to correct his height. His strength was returning, but slowly.
Inuyasha backed up under him, making no comment when he returned to his respite. An appreciable quality.
“I’ve been thinking.” Inuyasha’s dippin...
Update: Songs #3
Dragged through Hedgerows. Edits came back for the next short story in the Songs of the Amaranthine collection. We’re on track for next month’s release. This is your reminder that if you read via Kindle, the story is available for pre-order on Amazon. It’ll probably start showing up in other venues soon. (After I make these tweaks.)

LMM 47: True Blue
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 thinking clearly.
Chapter Forty-Seven: True Blue
Hands busy, the grip of Jacques’ fears loosened enough for him to twist and tug at them, seeking their root. Argent had never dismissed his fear. Never denied...

LMM 46: Harmless
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 wordless one.
Chapter Forty-Six: Harmless
Jacques warmed somewhat to his task, but it was a large one. “Why are the others not helping?”
Sansa had retreated to a bonfire, where more oil warmed. Michael, Tsumiko, and the...

LMM 45: Steady On
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 lost the skies.
Chapter Forty-Five: Steady On
Jacques’ fingertips lightly grazed the dragon’s scales.
Beside him, Argent showed no such delicacy. “Put your back into it, Smythe. He is far from fragile.”
He ca...

Mood Stripes 106: Gaining
Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this audacious adventure… especially for the strong one. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.
Chapter 106: Gaining
Sesshoumaru couldn’t take back anything he may have said in the past, but neither was he bound by past opinions. His brother could be crude, but he found he appreciated Inuyasha’s blunt manner and brisk actions. They made little of much.
“Oi. You able...

LMM 44: The Seduction of Dragons
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 intimidating one.
Chapter Forty-Four: The Seduction of Dragons
Jacques allowed Deece to usher him to where Sansa waited somewhere near Lapis’ hindquarters. “You are familiar with grooming, yes?” she asked briskly.
H...
