I'll be home for Christmas- Part Five

The morning light came through the front window of the house, into the living room where it got into the eyes of the person sprawled on the couch, waking them up. Deryn cracked an eye open and saw it was morning. She stretched out on the couch, groaning. The couch had not been comfortable. Usually it was, as it had deep cushions which you could sink into, but for some reason it had not been pleasant last night. Her mother had forced her to stay downstairs for the night. She had fallen asleep there, muscles stiff and clothes rumpled. She hadn’t slept well. The youngest cousin had cried at three in the morning. Bovril had curled up

Alek sat at the dining room table, finishing his breakfast of eggs and toast. It was December 23rd now, the day before Christmas Eve. The wind was dying down a bit and the sun had come out in force today. Alek gazed out the window and watched the icicles on the wrought-iron fence outside dripping. His hand still hurt like crazy, and was a rich shade of purple. He had woken up alone that morning, which scared him more than he cared to admit; it was like his nightmares of losing Deryn- electrified by Goliath, shot in Istanbul, killed when her glider crashed in Mexico- were reality and the past months of being together with her were the drea

“Tazza, will you quit trying to piss on every barking thing we walk by?” Deryn snapped at the thylacine. The morning of December 22nd was just as cold as Monday had been. Deryn had gotten up early, snatched breakfast and walked down to the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland’s building, following the lady boffin’s instructions as best she could. The boffin had met her in the lobby and dumped the thylacine on her and promptly disappeared in her meeting. Deryn glanced at a clock on a storefront as she walked by. It was already half past noon. She had another half hour to kill. Deryn had left that morning without see

Alarms went off in Alek’s head and he readied himself to jump in and grab Deryn when he saw that the thing behind the door was a woman in an apron, hugging the startled Deryn tightly. “Deryn Sharp, it’s been ages since you’ve been here! I swear you’ve grown again!” She shouted. She was a wide woman with her brown hair pulled into a ponytail. “It’s good to see you too, Auntie Abi. But I haven’t grown an inch since I left.” Deryn replied, beginning to come out of the initial shock. She released her Aunt’s grip, stepping back a bit. “No! I swear, you’ve got another

I'll be home for Christmas- Part One

The cold winds of late December blew at all hours in the city of London. Even as early as eight in the morning, it seemed. Alek pulled his wool coat closer and hunched his shoulders against the chill. His hat was pulled on tight, and the wind made his face red with cold. It was still dark out; the sun wouldn’t rise for an hour or two. Alek’s thoughts turned bitter when he thought of the traitorous sun abandoning the earth to such cold temperatures. Waiting out on the curb in front of the London Zoological Society’s building did not help. His gaze drifted over to the large omnibus a few metres away, where a figure in a t

A couple drinks later...

Saturday, December 12th, 1914, Aleksandar Hohenburg sat resting on the couch by the fireplace in his living room, enjoying the heat of the fire while sorting through some papers from Dr. Barlow. Bovril was nestled on a pillow close to the fire, fast asleep, its tiny loris nose making a whistling snore. Alek had his boots off and old Hapsburg guard coat hung by the door, his waistcoat unbuttoned and loose on his frame, sleeves rolled up. Running a hand through his brown hair, he wondered when he last had a haircut. Evidently, he needed another. He was glad to be back in good health after the past week’s fiasco- stuck in bed with the

Aleksandar Hohenburg was sick. It was the second week of December 1914, still early in the month, and he and ex-Midshipman Dylan Sharp had left the Leviathan behind to join the London Zoological Society. Some days it seemed like they had just stepped off the ship, the aftermath of all that happened in New York seeming fresh. But on other days, it seemed like years since their adventures on the Leviathan. Alek knew his ex-soldier best friend itched to get back into adventures, and back into the air. He could tell they missed the Leviathan terribly. Alek also hoped to get over this monster cold before the holidays; Christmas was coming up,

How to Make an N7 Armor

How to make a Mass Effect N7 Armor I have been asked this question a lot so I decided to go ahead and answer it. I DID NOT come up with how to make it, I got the idea from other brilliant prop makers who came before me and did this long before I did. 1.EvilFX: Website He documented his build and he even takes commissions 2.Volpin Props: Website He has a section on his N7 build and many rifles including the M-8 3. Narayas: Website He has instruction somewhere on a file share with patterns...awesome person..(can't find direct link at moment but google you will find) 4.

Until further notice, the story "We'll meet again" is being put on hold. I know I want to continue it, but I don't want to share some half-assed work. More chapters will be released after proper development. Also, I am taking writing prompts, if you would like to see an idea incorporated in the modern AU or as a piece on its own.

December: Time for a story.

0 min read

Greetings, all. The holidays are coming up, and with them, my imagination runs wild with images of Dalek dancing in my head. Well, not them dancing, really, it's an expression.   Anyways, I'll be home for Christmas is looking like a long one. Hopefully I can get it done fast enough to post once or twice a week with a finale on the 24th. Usually my fictions start with a drawing in my head, and since I can't draw, I must write out the story. No matter how long it has to be to get to the point of the image. So, may your winter be snowy and your holidays festive, not matter how you celebrate. Abschied, companions.
