Quote of the Week


Everyone knows that any food that is squishy is good, regardless of what it tastes like.


Pirate: Public Opinion



T'day we're takin' a look at that most seaworthy of colors. Not only are Pirate pets unafraid of gettin' thar fur wet, but they're devilishly handsome too! They ignore most of the rules of high fashion an' high society, yet they've created a style that's recognizable an' iconic (not t' mention, comfy an' intimidatin' at the same time). If one of these swashbucklers passed ye in the street, ye'd know straight away...

Mastering Mystery Pic



Are people always complimenting your ability to color coordinate your wardrobe? Or are you an expert at picking out the ideal drapes to go with your carpet (no sample handy!)? Then you seem to have the basic skills for entering the Mystery Pic competition! You don't have to have absolutely perfect color pitch, but it certainly helps.

"A joke!" A green fist slammed down on the mantel and rested there. "Is that all I am?!" The caped figure raised both arms imploringly at the painting above the fireplace. "Is that all I have become?" he mourned. His arms fell to his sides, his hands tightening into fists. He swung around to look down at the quivering purple Grundo behind him, and shook one fist at it...

"Poison Doll" by micrody
She wandered blankly back to her chair and sat down with a huff. It had only been a few days since her Grandmamma had sent her a similar Neogram beginning with the same sentence, Please, do not be alarmed. She had sent the Neogram to Slaine, saying that Slaine's great-aunt Demona had fallen ill, the illness presumed to be Neo Flu then as well. Even so...
