Valois stood a few feet away from Gunther, chatting with a fae whose vivid yellow wings formed elegant spirals and curls behind her. Looking around him, Gunther noted that the wings of every fae were slightly different in shape and form and colour. Some were huge and faint, like gauzy butterfly wings, some were long […]

After dinner that evening, Valois took Gunther’s hand and led him into the bedroom. Closing the door quietly behind them, he let go and stepped into the middle of the room on his own. Confused, Gunther just stood and watched as Valois raised one hand to circle it three times around his own head. Something […]

Long time no see ;) I was tagged by Astraea Nevermore on Tumblr to do the ‘getting to know’ meme, so since this blog has been quieter than a morgue of late (not for much longer, though!) I figured I’d post this one over here. Behind the cut with you!

I’ve been curious lately as to what might have happened had Valois not entered Gunther’s life. What would Gunther’s life be like? What would happen to Mort, Cornelia, Natalie, etc; all of the main characters in The Madness of Mr Goth? I have a few theories of my own, which I’ll post later, but I […]

This was written in response to a prompt on Tumblr, but it also rather fits February’s theme of ‘Anew’ for the Short Story Challenge on the official forums, so I’m submitting it for that, too. It’s really more of a tranche de vie—a slice of life—than a fully-contained story, but it has a beginning, middle, […]

Gunther felt Valois clasp his hand as they stood and watched Mort and Esther go through Passport Control. With a final grin and wave, they were lost from sight, and Gunther’s hand tightened around Valois’s. “I’m going to miss them so much,” he whispered, feeling tears welling up. “As will I, my darling,” Valois said […]
