Alas Poor Coyote
Janice stretched her arms and yawned.
She was not getting younger for sure, but today she felt particularly like a fossil, entombed in her house, preserved as the rest of Echo decays. Not a pleasant feeling when you know that being a relic from a lost age is all you have, when you could hav...

The bell rang.
The cafeteria was already a cacophony, but TJ was quickly able to find Sydney by the sound of his voice. As well as his musk, just barely disguised by the deodorant. Next to him was Flynn, and they were already car...

TJ simply kissed him in the cheek, then looked at him with his beautiful blue eyes. A wordless sign for him to go on.

When TJ woke up, Sydney wasn't in the bed.
Normally, he'd watch as his boyfriend snorred and drooled, either gently waking him up or staying with his love until it was time to leave. When for some reason Sydney woke up first, TJ usually was still met with his blue eyes and a kiss.
