Don’t Know Why

In the very-nearly-a-year since King Phillip had died and Lock had become king there were a few things that Wesley found himself becoming used to. Odd hours were one. Before the plague it was understood that the only time that Wesley would be summoned in the middle of the night was if bandits attacked the house or something.

Now who knew when Lock would have need of him. It lead to a very unsettling sort of feeling. A sort of transience, impermanence. He was determined to be there for Lock whenever Lock needed him, but the young king didn’t seem to have any sort of schedule. Probably because Lock didn’t seem to have time to create one.

Heaven Distress

“And you two complain about me being a slug-a-bed.” Alistair commented with a look over his shoulder at the curtained alcove where Jarrett was asleep.

“Because you sleep in every morning.” Sawyer retorted. “Jarrett’s up before the sun most mornings, if he chooses to go to bed early, he can.” Although, Sawyer couldn’t help but look over his shoulder also, though not with disdain, with worry. The closer they got to midwinter, the worse Jarrett was doing.

A medievally rant.

I’m gonna post this here because while I could put it up on Numb I’m behind on updating wordpress and also this concerns people with interest in things medieval and in things sims, so on a blog dedicated to Medieval-ish sim stuff, I figure this isn’t a bad place for this. Continue reading

Status Report, Mr. Fish

Just wanted to put up an FYI. I haven’t forgotten Shadowcrest, I’ve just not been able to do the coming episode with any speed. Right now I am swamped under projects for real life and for Morgaine’s birthday (next week, dunno how I’ll finish on time.) and the coming episode is COMPLICATED and involves a flashback scene, which makes shooting it difficult to say the very least…

All combined I’m not going to promise an update until the week after next. But with luck come July 16th or 17th there will be a new update. (Without luck, look for the new update to be your regularly scheduled Thursday one on the 21st.

Thanks for your patience!

Last Thing

“I don’t,” Peyton said, “See why we have to do this.” The blonde was sitting in a chair, facing Heidi, who was attempting to apply make-up to Peyton’s face. Peyton swore she never touched cosmetics at home, and if her first attempt had been any indication, Jolene was pretty sure she knew why. Although, Raquel had seemed to feel a little better about her own make-up after having seen Peyton’s go with it.

“Go to Raquel’s wedding?” Heidi asked, sounding horrified.

“No, dress me all up.” Peyton said as Heidi reached for a brush.

“Don’t you want to look pretty?”

“Beauty, goes the old cliché, is in the eye of the beholder.” Peyton shrugged philosophically. “Besides, this is more or less a lie.”

Just A Matter Of Time

The problem, as Raquel saw it, with being the sole teenaged girl in all of Shadowcrest was one she never anticipated. How could you sit there, day in and day out looking at your roommates, five beautiful, confident, damn near airbrushed-model-flawless women and not see how much you didn’t stack up. They’d already grown into their features and personalities. They didn’t sit there and worry about whether their noses were too big, or their busts not big enough.

Many Meetings

Blake paused at the foot of the stairs, looking around the public room of the cottage. It was still hard to believe this was his. Being the third son of a merchant who was not known for a hardheaded practicality where the cashbox was concerned, Blake was pretty sure that there were more “to be paid later” notes in his father’s old ledger than there was actual notations of payment.

Real life is a bitch

Just wanted to say that though my goal has been to try to have an update up at least once a week, I’m not going to make it this week. Between some depression and that thing we call real life I’m sitting here watching the clock tick down on this week and haven’t even started shooting this week’s episode.

But next week’s episode should be up on Thursday if all goes well. If all doesn’t go well, well, I’ll have bigger problems than missing an update.

Your Winter

The idea was there, the perfect one, the one that would put to music everything he was feeling, it was like there was a miniature sun inside his breast, the light flowing through him in his very blood and bones. And somehow he had to bring all of that out and give voice to it.

The Place I’ll Return To

“Peyton, sweetie, we’re waiting.” Jolene called over the screen that separated the dressing area from the dorm part of the barn loft. Heidi hid a smile as Peyton huffed.

“I think she knows that, Jo.” Heidi told her. You’ve only reminded her of it three times now.
