Vesi Vanhin Voitehista 1Street lamps blazed holes into the night sky like smoldering cigarettes being pressed into dark blue linen paper. Along with the lights of the city that hugged the town's limits, they intimidated the stars into staying home. This victory of the unnatural luminence gave the short street and the houses lining it a harsh glow. Every edge blurred, dithering into the yellow-orange lights that seemed almost solid. Taivuttaa stood in the middle of the street, staring down a single-level house that would have been a dim yellow in the sun. He sighed, releasing a tired breath of profanity like an afterthought.

He'd been tossed out of that house t

Go Watch TVBrains. It was almost too much. PDQ knew he couldn't qualify for any other role in a ballad, but it made him blush anyway. Certainly he was no mysterious figure like Griselda, nor a seasoned soldier like Mychael. But letting him aspire to moderate brilliance or even intelligence was far too generous. Probably Mychael was only being kind. She was even smiling now, which changed her greatly. For the better, if someone had forced him to say.

They were on the move again. He wondered for a moment whether he should have taken the time to ask Griselda about their destination. At first it hadn't really mattered, freedom had been the only ob

Look Something ShinyFor a moment, all PDQ could think to say was, 'That seems unnecessarily dark,' and so wisely kept his mouth shut. Undead and those with the taint were not unfamiliar to him, but this was not quite due to personal experience, merely culture and education. He'd seen the taint on her from the start, but hadn't thought to comment on it, even in his own personal thoughts. After all, he'd seen it plenty of times in plenty of people. When he'd been a child, it would have felt odder to see someone free of it.

He tapped Mychael's shoulder, but didn't wait for her to turn and face him. " I don't mean to hurt your feelings," he whispered, just abo

Just Another BoreIt seemed to have been a small eternity since PDQ had last spent a night out in the open. Even before his incarceration, he had been working in hostels and inns, after a long stint as a stableboy. Memeth was so close to Tev, and Tev had been almost impossibly near Valiari. None were anywhere near Ba Ki, of course, but that was the point, wasn't it? He grinned. It was good to be properly on the road again, fugitive status notwithstanding.

He patted the bandage gingerly, wondering if Mychael wanted to be left to her own thoughts and devices. He could hear her breathing, but it sounded so full of peace that he couldn't bring himself to sp

Sometimes, my mom talks about work. (she's a kindergarten teacher)

Sometimes, I sit at the table and listen. (I think I was drinking orange juice. ....or Airborne, more likely.)

Sometimes, she talks me into drawing something for her, or scanning something.

This time, I wanted to share.

Because I like how the pumpkin came out.

Black and white because she's going to run it through the copier at work, fonts from dafont.com as usual.

Schweet. I wish I had gotten stuff like this for reading. Instead, I was more likely to be told, "Put the book down and pay attention."

It depends on the school--also, this is for a kindergarten class, I think, so reading/being read to is pressed upon as important.

Yeah... But from third grade on, it was "read what we tell you to read".

Really? Aw... My schools weren't like that. I had a friend in 7th grade who read Japanese novels at school.

Eh, I always got in trouble for reading under the desk.

.....yyyyeah, that would fall under "not paying attention to the teacher" in many cases and situations... It usually depends on the time you take to do it, and if you have work to do or not.
