Genie in a Double-Deuce
“Aw man, I lost another one!” Mitch cried as he reeled in his line. “What am I doing wrong?”Cory laughed from his seated position nearby, setting aside his sketchbook and pencil. “You’re probably not baiting your hook very well!” He rose to his feet and walked over to where Mitch stood, pulling another nightcrawler from the bait bucket. “Let me see what you’re doing.”Mitch’s face scrunched in frustration as he displayed his baiting method. He ran the hook perpendicularly th...
To a Very Special Person
As it so often happened, Kobayashi was unaware of what had transpired until the following day when, as it should never happen, she read about it on the local news app on her phone. The article was thankfully vague, but it was clear that a certain somebody who shouldn’t be seen in her true form, was spotted in the skies over Tokyo.“Kanna!” Kobayashi called brusquely. “Come here, please!”White-lavender hair and bright blue eyes peeked around the corner of the bedroom door, but dared not ...
Bottle of Pills
I spent three hours staring at a bottle of my pillsWondering if what’s inside would really be enoughTo bring this story to a close.I hate this mess inside my head, this mass of jumbled stuffThat rolls around in crashing wavesAnd pushes reason from my thoughts.My fearful insecurities grasp me tightAnd tie my me up in knotsThat bind my words and hold my handsAnd lock me with inaction.I do my best to focus on the good things in my lifeBut they dissolve into abstractionAnd lose their form before I...
Another Route - Fate/Stay Night
Tohsaka Rin looked at the petite blonde in front of her. The girl’s green eyes seemed to bore into Rin’s soul, scrutinizing everything about her in mere moments. Something about this felt off - as though it went against the natural order of things. But Rin couldn’t deny that this was the proper Servant she had summoned. Everything had gone to her meticulously-crafted plan.“I ask you… Are you my Master?” The blonde girl’s voice was firm, noble. There was no hint of malice or subterf...
The Brothers
I watch him, wondering if he even realizes how much I resent him. His short, round body is offensive to my eyes. His blue eyes gaze out vacantly from atop a large bulbous nose and a mustache that would put porn stars to shame. I used to look up to him. I used to try to be like him. But now I stare at him, trying to will him to look at me, to see the anger and hate and hurt in my eyes.Years ago, he was sent on a job to a construction site, back when Papa M was still running our shop. He was the o...
Batteries
It’s such a funny feelingTo be a human batteryTo never have the powerTo obtain the masteryOf my own ailing body.I struggle to conserveWhat little energyI pull from food and sleepAnd fight the lethargyMy system is so shoddyWhen I was much youngerI charged up instantlyAnd pushed myself beyond my boundsTo play persistentlyI took myself for grantedBut now that I am olderI wrestle just to callThe spirit and the vigorThe simple wherewithalTo do as I’m demandedMy friends are understandingMy family?...
Anniversary Night
Tohru was not going to like this. Kobayashi-san looked at her watch again just to be sure, but it was definitely twenty past ten. The nondescript young woman adjusted her glasses and sighed heavily. There was less than two hours left in the day and today was important. With grim determination, Kobayashi marched through the hallway that led to a pair of otherwise unremarkable elevators. Today, however, those elevator doors looked more like a gateway to salvation. Takiya, Kobayashi’s long-time f...

Char Frymaster!
This is the halfling barbarian chef Char and her faithful steed by way of intimidation, the giant dire rat Crisco!There's a whole story here, so if you're interested I can write it up, but yeah. D&D weirdness.
Chloe (Meow Mix-Up)
So this is more or less how I envision Kyle/Chloe from Meow Mix-Up (https://www.scribblehub.com/series/534819/meow-mixup/)! Is this how you pictured her? Did you have different ideas in mind? I'd be happy to discuss them! This was just a quick sketch I did on-stream at https://twitch.tv/katsmith
