A certain crafter stuck his head around a doorway, eyes narrowed. “Where’s the snake?”
Lucille didn’t look up and pulled the next page forward. “Why do you care?”
“For the last week he hasn’t come to bother me once. I can’t help being suspicious.” Sedric...

Yes, I didn't post on Wednesday, and I can't tonight. Because...
...I have a cold. The brain fog hasn't been helping me do much. I've been writing since Wednesday, but the going is slow, so I'll be posting the day after tomorrow.

A man in his late twenties clicked his tongue when reading the page before him. He put the page down and looked at the door of the room.
“When is Lucille returning?” Vincent murmured. He flinched when the door creaked open.
“Hey, Vincent!” a humanoid snake said, poking his head ar...

“…before we even begin to contemplate this ‘duel’, I’d like to correct the notion of me being ‘beside’ Hargrave Einar,” Lucille said, backing away from Rouge Ellsinore and taking out the two daggers. “He has followed my requests, for the most part.

Yep. I was tasked with house-sitting for some family friends to look after their cat and two guinea pigs. The packing was rushed.
I'll still be writing at their house, but uh... I didn't have time for today.
I'll get back up to three chapters a week, I swear!

Two young women were standing out in front of Gilded Seat’s Obelisk, the towering structure of polished black metal.

“Run it by me one last time,” Lucille said, tapping on the table she and her guest were sitting at.

Yeeep. Going back to a three-day-per-week posting schedule after slowing to a two-day and then barely one day during Uni has me burned out a bit. It's been, what, two weeks after my last exam? Close to that.
Anyway, because I have two younger siblings finishing up their school term, things have been a bit hectic today ...

Slightly off-tune whistling floated through the carriage. A dark-haired boy frowned and put his hands over his ears. “Annaliese, can you shut up? You’re hurting my ears.”

The polished marble floors let out a dull echo as Lucille’s boots walked across them. In the absence of anyone else nearby, her expression was cold and devoid of emotion.
