The Purple Pony Job

by Sparklebeard (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/339012.html) When the three of them had decided to find a place to live and work out of together, one of the few things they’d all agreed on from the start was that they each needed their own bedroom. It seemed natural that three criminals with their own quirks, only a few […]

Tempestuous

(mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/339246.html) “Judgement is the ultimate reason we are here. Without it as our goal, we have neither purpose nor destination, as ephemeral as ashes in the wind. If we lose sight of our pursuit of the truth we may as well cease to be.” Vic’s construct body exhaled a plume of fake smoke that […]

3,693 miles of stitches

by Hyakunichisou 13 (百日草 十三) (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/339475.html) When Sophie waved her new husband off to war she was wearing her favourite cotton day dress, pale blue with garlands of white and pink posies printed on it. All the other women were in their Sunday finest, but Sophie knew Frank liked her best like this, maybe […]

Café Miel

by Aosora Hikaru (青空ヒカル) (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/339825.html) “Hey, August.” I glanced up from my plate, the half-formed thought about how delicious my food was dissipating into thin air. I made an inquisitive noise around my mouthful of food, but otherwise didn’t stop eating while I waited for Cam to continue. “How do you feel about roleplay?” […]

Bachelors and Bouquets

by loveonthefarm illustrated by cloven (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/335893.html) “Please,” Avery said, “please, please tell me you’re all kidding.” They grinned; and then, across from him, in unison, Elise, Shayna, Simon, and Nicky shook their heads. “You’re getting married.” Avery put his head in his hands. That couldn’t be right. “All of you. This spring.” Shayna rubbed […]

The Happy Knot You Tie

by Susan Owa (多情多恨) (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/336252.html) “Your family hates me.” Johnny is sitting on the edge of the hotel bed, head hanging, shoulders slumped. “And your family really rolled out the red carpet for me,” Wex deflects, fiddling with his bow tie. He knows damn well how to tie a bow tie — he wears […]

Layer Cake

by shukyou (主教) illustrated by Iron Eater (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/337059.html) “Not yet, boss,” Manda called from the next room. Steve looked at the car keys in his hand. He looked at the back door. He looked at the light switches he would hit and the alarm that he would set before going home for the day. […]

Employee engagement

by Hyakunichisou 13 (百日草 十三) (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/336741.html) Another Tuesday, another staff meeting. Russell sipped from his travel mug, which did not contain even remotely enough caffeine for this, and listened to Wright drone on about Q2 web stats. “That said, why don’t we touch base with the App Subcommittee,” Wright said. “Katrina, Ardash, do we […]

Down On My Knees

by Domashita Romero (地下ロメロ) (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/336526.html) “Buy you a drink?” came the slightly nasal voice from Tom’s left. “Could I, I mean? Buy you a drink.” Tom did not yet look over to see the source of this offer, instead neatly poking at the ice in his vodka cranberry with his straw. “I do seem […]

Savior (tfw maybe bf)

by T.F. Grognon (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/333999.html) “Hey, rent-a-cop!” the hot busker out front calls when Huck’s hurrying to clock in on time. “Back that ass up!” The busker is obnoxious, and not that great at making money, thanks to his tendency to mock passers-by and question their taste when they try to make requests. He’s also […]

Anyway, I’m Not That Wonderful

by Wasureta Yume (和巣礼田ゆめ) (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/334172.html) He shook his umbrella off in the lobby. I was halfway to soaking, especially the ankles of my jeans. The backpack I’ve had since college missed the umbrella’s protective halo altogether. Likewise, the wheels of his navy blue suitcase left a wet trail in their wake on the hotel’s […]

The Scene is Dead

by shukyou (主教) (mirrors http://s2b2.livejournal.com/334420.html) It was the Queer as Folk that tipped him off. But for the four months leading up to it, Gautam just blamed his brother. Frankly, Mani was the more reasonable explanation. “You’ve got nothing to do here,” he sighed as he flopped down on Gautam’s couch, his socked feet dangling […]
