    Letting Slip The Dogs Of Shenanigans [Closed]

    Addie couldn’t stop staring. No doubt Father would have sold her to whoever bid most highly, and given it had to be somebody willing to go along with such a scheme, their morals would already be non-existent. But she had never seen such malice written on a face the way it was on this Tevinter’s...

    Letting Slip The Dogs Of Shenanigans [Closed]

    Josc hugged her back, and Addie had to smother a fresh bout of tears. The shock and relief of the last few minutes were almost too much to bear. She’d known Sterling was capable of being cruel, and she certainly knew of Father, but she’d never thought the full force of it would be directed at...

    Letting Slip The Dogs Of Shenanigans [Closed]

    Even though they were tight on time, Josc took a second to soothe Addie, for which Addie was immensely grateful. She had been nervous the first time she clambered down the trellis and escaped the garden, but that was nothing to this - her father had proven willing to sell her to make his own...

    Letting Slip The Dogs Of Shenanigans [Closed]

    It took Addie a moment to remember she’d sent the message to Celeste in the first place, rather than Josc, and she had a moment for a brief flare of embarrassment before it was quickly swamped by the desire to get away from this place. While the estate had never felt like a home in the way of...

    Letting Slip The Dogs Of Shenanigans [Closed]

    Day had slipped into night far too quickly. Addie had gone to the window several times, hoping to see a familiar face appearing over the wall, or to see a red kerchief being waved from a nearby house, or...well, anything to confirm that her message wasn’t still sitting in the alleway, wrapped...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    As far as Addie knew, the guards didn’t have orders to check in on her regularly, but she wouldn’t put it past her father to have ordered them to keep an ear open on their rounds to make sure she wasn’t up to anything. Of course, a girl sleeping soundly in her bed and one who had absconded to go...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    The story about the shark held her wide-eyed attention effectively – her imagination made them huge and then something even bigger had been able to effectively bite it in two. She might need another glass of wine before bed tonight or that something could easily end up doing figure-eights in her...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    Addie hadn’t thought Celeste would throw a huff over having her offer turned down, but a lifetime of gently pandering to her father and brother’s moods meant that she still breathed a sigh of relief when Celeste offered to keep the opportunity open. “Any time we’re in port, just say the word...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    This wine was actually halfway nice. Some of the labels on the bottles were worth something, after all. After clearing a few droplets of alcohol from her throat, Addie took another draught and felt the warmth creep into her stomach that usually meant she would be far more giggly than usual in a...

    Rose-y Cheeked Orlands [Closed]

    Eddie squeezed her hand. Addie remembered when his hands had seemed so much bigger than hers; he would splay out his fingers and she would press her palm to his, wondering at how her digits barely reached his first knuckle. Her hands were still small compared to his, but not by so much now...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    Celeste could think of other uses for her abilities as a mimic, but didn’t specify. Addie didn’t push for more details at the moment as she normally would have. The brush with danger had been much too close and her nerve had been all but used up; they needed to get back to her room, and then she...

    Rose-y Cheeked Orlands [Closed]

    Her panic amused Eddie, but his laughter wasn’t cruel the way Sterling’s would have been. Instead he was sympathetic to her plight, given that he also did not have a wealth of experience to call upon. His advice was practical, even if the thought of acting on it gave Addie a major case of the...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    Addie was trembling as she leaned back against the racks. Never had she come so close to Sterling finding out what she was doing in her free time these days; let alone tried something so bold in order to evade trouble. Itching powder and sleep powder and fart bombs all ensured that her presence...

    Rose-y Cheeked Orlands [Closed]

    Eddie listened to Addie wittering on about Josc once again. She would have been afraid of boring him, but Josc was one of her favourite topics and it was rare that she just got to talk at will without somebody gently reminding her that young noble ladies should have a care about what came out of...

    A Little Fun For Once In Your Life [Semi-open]

    Addie had been attempting to tease Josc a little with her feigned obliviousness, but she hadn’t expected her companion’s frankly honest compliment. None of the noblemen she’d ever known would have dared say such a thing openly, unless maybe they were deep in their cups. From any of them, she...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    Celeste stepped into the cellar and surveyed the contents with the eye of a real connoisseur – not of the impressive labels on the front of the bottles, but of the actual contents. With little hesitation she plucked out a Tevinter white, and then a red. Addie had not drunk much Tevinter wine...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    Addie had expected Celeste to sneak across the room, and that she did. What she had not been expecting was for her to go right up to the sleeping guard, sprinkling something on his chest. A sort of itching powder, maybe? But wouldn’t that wake him up? Celeste skittered back out and then shut the...

    Rose-y Cheeked Orlands [Closed]

    Addie wasn’t quite sure how everything kept swinging back around to Josc. Even at home, she occasionally found herself having to make an active effort to curb herself from dropping the other woman’s name into conversation. She was fairly sure Ria had an inkling, by now, but fortunately she’d...

    Hang Him Out To Dry [Complete]

    Addie had walked this way openly numerous times during the day. While she was forbidden from taking anything from the cellar for herself (Maker forbid she have anything more than half a glass of wine at a time, lest she cause any embarrassment at all to the family in front of one of the numerous...

    Rose-y Cheeked Orlands [Closed]

    It was good to know that her tendency to turn red was a familial trait. Eddie quickly took a drink after admitting that he had recently had some positive developments in the arena of romance, not somewhere that had been a frequent haunt of his. He referenced Carina, which brought a giggle to her...
