Shopping Trip August 12 - Sunday afternoon Miki and Rin took a bus into the city - not much by way of gym equipment stores in the little town near Yamaku. It was a strange, silent trip. Miki spent most of the ride texting on her phone, and Rin spent her time looking out the window into space. “Ok -...

I Could Lie to You and Tell You it Doesn’t Hurt August 11 - Saturday morning Miki sat under a tree and ruminated - those who thought her flighty and irresponsible would be surprised by how introspective she could be. Perhaps she was flighty because she didn’t often like the results of her introspec...

That was sweet - you've obvioulsy put a lot of thought an effort into this! It's hard to see them battling with their issues, but life's like that - issues don't just go away overnight (Emi's gonna Emi after all). I very much liked how you brought out their characters - Emi's a bit sharper and less ...

Boy Trouble Aug 09 - Thursday after school “Emi - I think I’m in trouble,” Rin breathlessly announced from Emi’s doorway. Emi wondered what kind of trouble could Rin be in - she only ever painted; only ever had to paint - build her portfolio and get into a good art school. “Maybe I’m over-thinking ...

Leaky Furniture Aug 05 - Sunday morning Rin was zoning out, as she usually did while Emi brushed her teeth. A rattling in the part of her head where she kept her memory desk drew her attention away from her wool-gathering. One of her drawers had popped open and was empty. “That’s not supposed to ha...

Properly Out Aug 04 - Saturday It was a hot and windy August afternoon, and the trees were in constant motion. “A perfect day to go CD shopping in town,” Tetsu thought to himself. There were a couple of stores in town that Tetsu found drew him like magnets - a junk store, where he could get broken ...

Afternoon Tea July 14 - Saturday afternoon A bright July afternoon had Tetsu roaming the halls looking for a cool place to hide from the heat. His dorm room was sweltering - they all were - so he’d retreated to the main building which was nominally air-conditioned. While the building was open, a qu...

Writing Home Redux July 10 - Tuesday Dear Diary It occurs to me I haven’t used this old typewriter in months - I feel like I’ve neglected an old friend, but also I guess it’s a measure of how far I’ve come - not very far, and yet very far indeed. Friends - Miki’s a great friend; I like talking with...

Writing Homeless III July 05, 2007 - Wednesday evening Tetsu knocked on Miki's door .. no answer. Numb to his usual inhibitions, and numb to almost everything else besides, he couldn't think of anything but to knock again. Miki manifested as she opened the door, slightly sweaty and a little out of ...

Writing Homeless II July 05, 2007 - Wednesday morning Tetsu knocked tentatively at the Administrator's heavy oaken door. "Come in," came a deep voice. Tetsu pushed the ajar door fully open - [ You wanted to see me? ] Tetsu signed. "Yes - please, close the door and have a seat. How's ...

Writing Homeless I July 03, 2007 - Tuesday Tetsu returned from the art club to find a note slipped under his door - "Please see the Adminstrator tomorrow - 8:30 am" "Well, there goes tomorrow's workout," Tetsu thought to himself - "Should let Miki know." Making his way...

Can’t Get it Out of My Head July 02 - Monday, afternoon Tetsu was delighted when Rin showed up to Art Club on Monday after school, apparently having gotten over her cold. — The intense July sunlight filtered into the art room undeterred by the hour of the afternoon or the blinds on the windows, suf...

The Second Novel in the Trilogy July, 2007 Yamaku in July was sultry, which is a polite way of saying `almost unbearably hot and humid` - at least it was down in the city. Situated as it was on top of a tall hill, Yamaku at least caught some breeze - still, when the breeze died the heat genuinely g...

Wow - totally not what I was expecting! Very nicely done, and an excellent exercise in world-building in a very short space (both verbally and geometrically!) Feels like it has the potential for a lot of room to grow (ha ha 😅) No - really, I want to know more about both worlds. Also excellently said...
