Re: Two Awesome Ladies . . .

It comes around once a year, like most yearly things.

Thanks. Been kind of busy so I only noticed this now.

Re: Happy Holidays from Cypress Cove

A Domovoy is a type of house spirit, sometimes referred to as a barabashka. Appearance varies from monsterous to something like a cat or dog. They can be like a poltergeist in that they can cause trouble when they're unhappy. That said, if you keep your house orderly and give them respect they're s...

Well, whatever Scarlet's trick was, you'd need a seance to ask her. For the record, I probably wouldn't have been able to take the vampire bitch. Shit, I really should finish this.

Joe Smith.

I didn't know the man, but others here did.

I hope he's in a better place than he was when I found him.

Re: Ghost Town Missing Person Case

So... that's that. I've been trying to decide some introspective way to end this. It was... something, to say the least. But whereas Joe Smith was to me a victim of a horrible cult ritual, many here considered him a friend and reliable ally. There isn't a whole lot I can say to comfort those here o...

Well ain't your name just apt. The man stopped me as we approached a well concealed entrance, butted right against the bluff. Approaching slowly, he glanced at the open doorway of the adobe structure, admiring what appeared to me to be scribbles. "Would you so kindly rub those out with your sw...

Maybe when I feel more like talking about it, Last Moon. We were mostly silent as we walked through an arroyo slowly towards a mountain ridge, the last last of day behind us as the sun by this point had mostly set. My body still ached a bit, but I was considerably more mobile than I was some hours ...

Things went bad very, very quickly. I hit pretty damn hard, but when I'm not getting so much as a groan of pain from most blows, there isn't a whole lot of point. I was hitting flesh and blood, but damn - it wasn't doing anything. I threw one of them into a table, shattering it into tiny splinters ...

Hoookay, long night. So, like Mel mentioned before, I got a cut-rate deal on this RV. The cops didn't bother to search it - or if they did, they didn't bother to do much with what they found. Seems to be a lot of gear that, technically speaking, probably doesn't work except for a few people. Sadly,...

Y'know Mel, I spoke to Adrienne the other night. She said that people in the know said Obin had skipped town, but the "loa" were staying silent on the matter.

Any idea what that means?

Short of it is I got a call from my Mother earlier tonight. Apparently my little brother, Milo, didn't come home last night. Sometimes he stays over at a friend's house, so Mom didn't panic - except that she called his friend's house, and they said they haven't seen him. She put out a MPR with the ...

I am not used to .44 caliber bullets not, at the very least, seriously wounding something or putting a giant hole in them.
