.... They have hope, and so should you. I wrote this song for you. It needs a lot of work, and I haven't figured out all of the tune, but here goes... "It is so." It is so,
your words will always be treasured
 They reach out many times over,
with the energy of light Right now, even if I can’t meet you,
 I am fine, so,

 if you're also fine, then I guess that's ...

The River Orphan - chapter 1

...her child were safe. Darius was a tall demon with pointed ears, skin white as snow and his hair a deep emerald green. His eyes were a kind blue. He hugged Shen to him. “And how is your ‘treasured object’?” he joked. Bao Bi was a term of endearment; obviously, Shen hadn’t given the child a real name.

...years. So often each day I run into situations with them where they seem to be working actively against my expectations for their behaviour, for their safety, or for the safety for our treasured goods in our home. These words made me think about how I could develop more acceptance around situations which rail against my petty expectations. The moment we experience disruption in our practice or in...

Fic (S/X): Letters of... (15-19/27)

...trailing into an incomprehensible whimper. Blunt carpenter’s fingers dug into Spike’s shoulders as if trying to pull him up and, by extension, in. Spike knew that if he’d been human the bruises his treasured boy was making would take days to heal, as it was he could only revel in the power and need the touch conveyed. Tearing himself away from that blissful sensation, Spike kissed his way up his ...

Fic (S/X): Letters of... (10-14/27)

... as a demon if there was a ‘Heaven’ he would likely never see it, but with that one drop of Xander’s essence he also knew Heaven could never compare to even a moment with his treasured human. Xander let out a needy cry as his hips attempted to jerk upwards involuntarily. Only Spike’s strong grasp kept him from impaling the vampire’s mouth- something Spike had every intention of allowing, just not...

...fur. No need to send anything in return; this is a personal tradition I've done for years now and brings me great happiness in just sending you a small physical token of my love. Though if you do, it'll be treasured. Tell everyone in the game! I got a mighty fuckload of cards so nobody is left out. If you want a custom message or custom bad drawing, I'll add one! Also here's a photo of me in a ...

...should have been worse, you're sure, but somebody must have helped her. You're a little curious to find out who. When the bell rings, you're already on your way to the cafeteria - early marks are a treasured thing, here - and as you pass her classroom, you expect to see her running out in front of everyone else, like you always do. Instead, you're shocked to see her in the same mess of people as ...

'Tis the season to send things! [Updated] Saitoh Takumi fan-address

... him a Happy New Year card, I'm sure he'd be very pleased. It's in line with his own culture. Do not send cards with designs that are in dark and mournful colours, as it bodes ill. An X'mas card would also be treasured, since the meaning is universally known and it's pretty special.

... shine.” Nikita swallowed the smile that threatened, leaning in to his Master’s touch, letting him reward him. Master’s hand was warm and gentle as it moved through his hair, like he was a treasured animal. The touch was possessive and caring; it sent hot tingles down his back. Derick watched his pet for a moment, just enjoying the easy submission. Nikita was plaintive and needy, but not in an ...

... the world's history and keeping a fifty year old promise. Somewhere to the side of that was All Blue, and on occasion it was buried beneath dreams that seemed much more powerful. Which was why he treasured these moments- these thin, tanned arms wrapped around him and words in the air that made him remember why he'd lived for so long. Because Usopp, on the level that told him he would never be ...
