“He does.” Dash nodded in agreement. “And the universe asks even more of him.” “Why do we even bother trying?” Swiftpaw bowed his head and stared at his forefeet. “Nobody has won.” “Why?” Serenity shifted to look back at the tiger and fox. “Because it is in our nature to serve our master, whether it [...]

I’ve added the Stealth and Fly and Fly and Lexx cards to the online store for $25 each. The charms ARE in and they WILL go into the mail next week. I’ve had a few delays … mostly centering on the lovely finding on Tuesday of termites eating our couch. 9.9 The couch went into [...]
“Sadly … we’re smart enough to ask such things and it’s a burden we should not have.” Serenity tilted her head back and forth as she spoke, focusing more on the timid Swiftpaw than the more stable Dash. They understood what she was getting at. They had an understanding now that they would never have [...]
“Stealth and I were the smallest kittens .. we would have starved.” Dash shivered at the memory of an empty stomach, something he had not experienced in years. “Nobody made sure we ate.” “I was going to be sold to a restaurant that day!” Swiftpaw’s ears twitched and he fluttered his wings. “Lexx has always [...]
Ok, I JUST had time to put the charms together for those who ordered them yesterday (and split my fingernails in the process… using a double ring instead of a split ring after an experiment with Kim resulted in a very quick loss of an item on a split ring). They will be going into [...]
“And Stealth growled at me for not holding back … I did as Lexx wanted.” Sirius grumbled suddenly. “Thank you, Sirius.” Serenity whispered. The four dice sat in silence for a moment, contemplating their situation and the loyalty they felt to their keeper. It was complicated. They understood Lexx. He might not be as open [...]
Riley arrived a few minutes later with a pair of medics pushing a hover gurney into the garden. In a flurry of activity, Sirius’ neck was wrapped and he was lifted onto the gurney to be transported back to the medical sector for a more thorough examination. The gathered dice watched helplessly and only vaguely [...]
Stealth stood up hearing the grass crunching behind her as three sets of paws walked up to her. Her ears were back and the tips of her tails twitching in anticipation of what they had on their minds. “I suppose you are all going to try and make me feel guilty about Sirius.” Stealth growled [...]
“No. It’s not.” Serenity bobbed her head slowly, her ears tilting and swiveling with each word. “But I respect Sirius for doing his best. He believes so strongly in Lexx.” She turned quietly and walked away with Swiftpaw and Dash silently following. Stealth’s muzzle twitched as she tried to think of something to say back, [...]
It’s SURPRISE – Let’s move to a new server time. 9.9 I do not like surprises. Actually, I really hate surprises of any kind short of: Here’s $1,000! I like planning. Alien Dice will be moving sometime over the next two weeks and will not update the week it moves. Moving is not fun. But [...]
