There was a rumble. The delicate remains of what was holding together in the facility began to fall. A shining light pierced our vision. It wasn’t the Chaos Emeralds this time. The gateway roared to life, a swirling golden vortex that shook the earth. Commander Stone snapped a lever and pressed a button. I lashed … Continue reading Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 29
[Art] Arms of the Dragon Queen
I fell in love with Coat of Arms after discovering them at a Classical Conversations Play Camp, and later re-discovered at Busch Gardens, Williamsburg. So I've been experimenting with art, colors, and symbols, which all have their own meanings! This is a good start with the supporters and colors, but I may try a few … Continue reading [Art] Arms of the Dragon Queen

It all happened so fast. I had no time to react. The pistol fired, but there was impact. There was a sudden rush of wind. I opened my eyes. Sonic was there, standing in front of me. He whobbled, then fell backwards into my arms. “Sonic!?” I exclaimed. As I examined him, blood began streaming … Continue reading Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 28

Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 27
After traveling in claustrophobic quarters, sweating in anticipation, we finally made it to Floor 12. I kicked the vent hood down and we descended from the shaft. This particular lab was a giant chamber, as large as a military-grade garage. Soldiers and scientists were ready for us, but so were we. Jaden zapped the scientists … Continue reading Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 27

For the past few years, my dabbling in cosplay has only gone as far as annual Halloween costumes. With a small budget, I have made decent cosplays for myself and for my siblings. However, after attending San Diego Comic-Con 2021: Special Edition, I was inspired to attempt to pursue cosplay as an active hobby. Thus, … Continue reading Amateur Cosplay: Halloween Town/Christmas Town from Kingdom Hearts II + OC Keyblade
Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 26
Then, behind the soldiers, I saw part of the door, creaking open. A silver haired boy, who looked like he was seventeen, quietly stepped out, looking at me, putting a finger over his mouth. I looked back at the lieutenant. “Why are you doing this?” I asked, “you have no right to just kidnap whoever … Continue reading Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 26
Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 25
Sweat poured down my face and body for what seemed like an eternity. My mind flipped between worlds like television channels. A gentle cool breeze hit me. I was at home, trekking across the newly harvested fields. There was solace, but something was missing. I cried his name, but he did not answer. I wondered … Continue reading Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 25
Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 24
It was twelve thirty at night. I slowly slid open the door of our little hiding spot. I could see some guards on the top level with flashlights. I shut the door and began to sneak around. I dashed from one end to the next and headed up the stairs. The doors to all the … Continue reading Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 24
Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 23
Two days had gone by since Jaden helped me escape. He would come in and out every day, presumably to sneak into the cafeteria to get snacks. Particularly on the second day, I was sitting in the quiet when Jaden suddenly popped into existence. I jumped. “Geez, J!” I exclaimed. “Sorry,” Jaden responded, “I’m not … Continue reading Re:Connect – Luana Dockinson {Part 1} – Chapter 23
