a/n: Another mini-chapter inspired by the SimFic Monthly Challenge. All still canon. I took the May theme of motherhood in a really dark direction. Enjoy! The flick of a broken light switch. A careful step around scattered books. A lean over caution tape to peek at one gold-embossed cover: The Landgraabs: A History. How appropriate. … Continue reading
Man, this is boring. Shyu slumped in his chair, grateful for once to be seated off to the side and away from the ever-watchful camera lenses. At least here he didn’t have to pretend to be interested in the old Fire Sage’s every word, unlike his parents, grandmother, and brother in the row ahead. Beside … Continue reading
Previously: Newly-turned vampire Elliot Marshall and his vampire offspring, Lexi Cramer, have been challenged by Vladislaus Straud to build a clan consisting the most powerful families around. Vladislaus has named Geoffrey Landgraab, Bella Goth, Lily Feng, Max Villareal, and Judith Ward as required members, of which Elliot must turn three before his rival, Miss H … Continue reading
Tenna shifted in place, trying to find the right excuse to edge away from the metal clan woman who had spent the last ten minutes rambling on about her great city and her great family and just how great everything was. Tenna didn’t even mind that so much. Suyin seemed like a decent sort. The … Continue reading
Today we shall return to Miss H and her ever-growing clan. Allie had completed her transformation and was eager to show off her dark vampire self.

Kyle needed a chance to narrate, anyway. Enjoy! … Continue reading
The last coronation Bolin had attended had not gone particularly well. Actually, it was less of a coronation and more of a crazy dictator declaring her intentions to dictate crazily. The only other coronation that had happened in his lifetime was that of Firelord Izumi. He’d been thirteen at the time, less concerned with world … Continue reading
Welcome back, dear readers. While you might be wondering if we shall explore the goings-on on Miss H or Elliot today, we are actually opening on an entirely different household. This one a small single parent family–a struggling comedian and his not-quite-thirteen-year-old daughter. (The fact that she still looked like she was nine was a … Continue reading
Mica had narrowed her choice of outfits down to two. A cute little red and orange sleeveless dress that was just short enough to annoy her dad. Or a classy blouse, jacket and and pencil skirt all in very deliberate un-Fire-Nation blue. “How about it, Bandit? Red or blue?” She looked both to her companion … Continue reading
You guys know my announcement-style posts are few and far-between, but this one just couldn’t wait. First off, there won’t be an update tomorrow, as I’m speaking at Zenkaikon 2019 this weekend. Eek! But there will be a new chapter of both Power Struggle and Clanbuilding for Dummies next Friday to make up for it. … Continue reading
