    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    For a moment, Momo simply looked down at her. There was something almost disarming about seeing Osytha like this. Not because she was kneeling, nor because of the way she looked at him, but because of the complete sincerity in her expression. The woman who had spent so much of her life carrying...

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    The little bogling's announcement earned Momo a quiet chuckle, though the sound was nearly lost to the rush of wind as the rainbow dragon carried them higher above the marsh. Dandelion, emissary of the boglings. He glanced down at the little creature, whose enthusiasm seemed to have grown...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    The gentle murmur of the nearby stream mingled with the rustle of willow branches overhead, their leaves whispering in the passing breeze as birds called softly from the surrounding thickets. The secluded clearing remained peaceful, the occasional ripple across the water the only disturbance to...

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    Momo's ears perked at the bogling's instructions, and he regarded the little creature perched in his hair with a thoughtful tilt of his head. “Be nice, say words of welcome, offer food, give a nest,” he repeated, ticking each item off on his fingers. “Well, that hardly sounds unreasonable.” His...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    Momo’s composure, fragile as the afternoon light through the leaves, quietly unfurled the moment she settled fully into his lap. He had spent his whole life learning restraint—learning to hold his tongue, to temper his heart with reason—but here, with Osytha warm and bare against him, every...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    His ears had lifted in surprise when she first moved, only to soften again as he leaned into her touch, his white hair spilling between her fingers. For a moment, Momoshiro forgot whatever he had been about to say. Osytha was in his lap, her fingers threaded through his hair, her warmth...

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    Momo watched Walter ride off with the girl, his ears tracking the steady drumming of the drakehorse’s paws until the sound faded into the distance. He hoped the Huntsman was right about her condition. The child had looked terribly exhausted, and the way she'd doubled over in pain after the...

    Private Fox in the Hen House

    "Is it something we can run away from?" Momo's ear flicked back at the question as he scanned the surrounding tree line, his crimson eyes narrowing as he searched the darkness between the trees. After a moment, he turned back toward her, and the tension in his expression softened into a warm...

    Open Welcome to Barrow Falls

    The Rust Angel reacted the instant the formation around it changed. Its head snapped toward the movement at its flank, those serene, sculpted features remaining utterly expressionless as its great iron wings shifted with a deafening shriek. One wing swept backward, a wall of rusted metal and...

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    Momo had barely taken a few steps before the sensation caught his attention. Something light and almost imperceptible had curled itself around his pinky within the Shroud. His ears flicked as he glanced down, though his eyes could not quite make sense of the wispy thread connecting him to the...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    Momo glanced down as Osytha slipped her arm through his, and the sight of her resting her head against his shoulder brought a quiet warmth to his expression. He adjusted his stride without thinking, shortening his steps so she could remain comfortably tucked against him. Once again, there was no...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    For a little while, Momo remained close, his hands still resting gently against Osytha's cheeks. The kiss had come on an impulse, born from a feeling he had struggled to put into words, and now that it had happened, he found himself reluctant to draw away. His crimson eyes searched hers, taking...

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    Momo’s ears twitched at the spirit’s shifting expressions, his gaze following each fleeting change with a mixture of fascination and concern. Calm, laughter, pensiveness, anger—each emotion passed across that tiny face with startling speed, leaving him little opportunity to settle on any one...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    Momo glanced toward Osytha, a faint smile lingering on his lips as he considered her question. There was something rather endearing about the way she approached their little expedition, all quiet determination and a hint of mischief. It was a welcome change from the troubles that had occupied...

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    For a moment, Momo simply stared. His ears had gone rigid, his ruby eyes fixed on the small head surrounded by feathers peeking from inside the girl's mouth. The sight was strange enough to momentarily leave him without words, but the surprise quickly gave way to something else as her voice...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    Momo slowed when he heard her, his ears angling back toward Osytha. For a moment, he said nothing. His eyes remained on the path ahead, though his attention had clearly shifted to her. She had noticed. Of course she had. Momo let out a quiet breath through his nose, the faintest smile...
  17. Momoshiro

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    For a little while, Momo simply looked at the girl, his warm smile remaining exactly where it had been. There was nothing threatening in his expression, nothing that demanded an answer. Just a quiet patience that he hoped might give her something to hold on to. Eventually, his gaze shifted...

    Private Tindercreek and Tillvale

    Momo's expression softened at the girl's request, though the answer left him with considerably more questions than it had answered. People had come to the village. They wouldn't let anyone leave. They didn't want the crownsfolk called. And now she was asking him for help. His gaze lingered on...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    Momo stared at Osytha for a moment, his expression caught somewhere between admiration and disbelief. He had expected a few embellishments to the story. He had not expected an entire criminal dynasty, a pearmain poacher, and quite so many apple-related crimes against language. “Abridge it?” he...

    Private Home Away From Home [M]

    Momo considered the proposal with an appropriately thoughtful expression, his ears tilting mindfully as the orderly rows of apple trees came into view beyond the last of the alders. The idea of a treasure hunt seemed, at first, entirely unnecessary. They could simply take a few apples, leave...
