Part one: http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/1049125.html
Part two: http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/1049392.html


The woman from “NABU” was pounding on Sting’s door. NABU, NABU. He pulled up a search window and flipped around. Nothing. The pounding was getting louder.

Building The Apiary, a ficlet of Cya/Doomsday

This time, she didn't do it by herself.

When she'd built Cloverleaf, she hadn't been alone, not all the time. Her daughter Mai had "helped", but Mai had been five years old, and there was only so much help even the most enthusiastic five-year-old could be. She'd brought in specialists, she'd called in favors, and she'd had company.

This time, she started by having cy'Underground survey and archive the area, pulling out anything that might possibly be of use to future generations and documenting the rest. She called in a team of people to break down the remaining bits of buildings, and another team to sort all of the bits into usable pieces.

She levelled the ground and raised the hill herself.

"The Apiary", Leo had said, and a beehive it would be. But this was Cloverleaf's project, not Doomsday's, and that meant she wasn't working alone.

Changes and Adjustments, a ficlet of Rozen & Kai post-apoc for the December Prompt Call

This comes after Retirement and Retirement 2, some 50 years after the Addergoole stories, and features two characters from those stories. It is written to clare_dragonfly's Prompt.

The wagon was small, and sometimes it felt more like a cage than a living space, a cage, and some awful test, the sort other people might have stressed about back in school.

Rozen had driven a wagon before, but he'd never gotten good at it; he had the Words to understand horses, but he'd never really practiced them. Kailani had taken a thoughtful look at him and said "here. You drive the first stretch. We're taking this highway south, and we're staying on the highway unless there's an issue."

Coming to School

Written to inventrix's prompt


Mike hadn't done many of these new student pick-ups - Luke didn't quite trust him to be adult about it, and he didn't have the travelling resources that, say, Laurel did - but Tzivyah's extended, adoptive family were friends of his from his wild days in the seventies and eighties, and the girl herself was a strange case. There hadn't been a peep on Shira's radar, to the point where they'd thought that she wouldn't Change at all without serious prodding, not a whisper from either of the sensitives they employed in the Village, and then all three of them, at once, had come to Regine's office. Yesterday. Pounding on the door. Insisting that right now, right now someone had to go get Tzivyah.

When your clairvoyant, your clairsensitive and your precognitive agree that urgently, someone goes, right then.

Mike had enlisted the help of a teleporter to drop him outside of town. It was a risk – everyone was very touchy about fae right now, and teleportation was very obviously fae – but Shira had been breathing down his neck so badly he’d thought she might end up getting carried along in the teleport.
