    Thread: A Quiet Crossroads (Lake Baikal, Siberia)
Post: RE: A Quiet Crossroads (Lake Baikal, Siberia)

Elias’s mouth fell open with a stunned scoff, his brow furrowing as though Sören had just slapped him. “Gone?” he repeated, incredulous. “No. No, no, no, you don’t get to blame me for that.” He ste...

Elias tore himself free of Alvis’s hand the moment they stepped out of the room, shrugging off the touch as though it burned him. His coat hung from his shoulders like a sodden second skin, dripping w...

Post: RE: A Quiet Crossroads (Lake Baikal, Siberia)

Elias sneered at Alvis, his pale lips curling with the certainty that the man was hiding the prize for himself. That smug silence of his, Elias thought bitterly, was a coward’s shield. Yet Elias could...

From the eye of the storm, the hand of rage gripped his ribcage so firm, he could barely breathe. The storm was the outward projection of his fury, but inwardly, his body reacted accordingly. The musc...

It was from a small dock that Elias pushed the boat out. He dropped the ropes at his feet and sat near the engine in order to steer — not that he had a single idea how to steer a boat. It couldn’t tha...

He didn’t like to think of Ashavari in the shower. If it was up to Elias, he imagined she was just some kind of cat that kept itself clean on its own. Stretching and licking… Nope. That imagery was no...

Lines of water pushed out across the surface of the lake. There was no specific purpose to the exploration but for the sheer fact he could claim ownership over all he surveyed with the act. The screec...

Elias specifically did not look up to answer her question. “In this dump? What do you think?” he snapped. Sleep was overrated, he thought to himself, but the defiance didn’t ease the headache behind h...

The screen door swung on rusty hinges when he pulled it open. The aroma of breakfast tugged his attention to the stove first then to the girl standing at it second. “Sleep alright?” he asked, eyein...

The Air Bnb was fine. One bedroom. El camped out on the couch. It was fine. Whatever. It made Asha happy, and Elias spent most of the night on the deck overlooking the lake. His time zones were all sc...

Elias let Asha pick the place. She was far more comfortable here than him. His nose was buried in the app, holding it up now and then as they walked. The beacon never sent an alert, but understandably...

He constantly checked the app during the trip. Every 10 or 15 minutes, it was open to see if the energy signature remained in place. No new alerts signaled activity, but in this case, no news was good...

"I'll trade you lives." It was a joke. He knew Asha was miserable growing up. It didn't take a sentient empath to figure that out. Tony was going to be pissed again, but he was either always pissed or...
