These are short little one-shots/ficlets set in the Tears of the Neko Universe.I've been perusing the writing prompts and using them as a way to get me back into the 'neko mindset' to write the sequel. They are set after Tears of the Neko (unless otherwise indicated)--so it would help to have read that story first of course to be familiar with the characters. Most are sort of funny and silly, as I'm playing around with the characters.

Emeric's life sucks; he's unhappy, drifting, lonely and sad. Things go from bad to crazy with the opening of a set of secrets that no one could have prepared him for.

A twisting thread through history pulls him tighter and tighter, and eventually, either he or the binding may snap.

Nick moves to San Diego for a fresh start. Things aren't going as well as he'd hoped until a chance encounter with Sam in an elevator. It's lust at first sight, but will these two polar opposites create a relationship that endures as they're drawn into each other's worlds.

There are two men struggling to pass through denial, guilt, anger, bargaining, depression, hopefulness to finally get to the acceptance stage.

The story is a 'ripped from the headlines' kind of tale. It's based on actual events, but the stories and characters are completely fictional. The subject matter is very grim. It's definitely rated mature and if you are sensitive, this won't be the story for you.

Sam's family lives in an isolated religious community, and Sam has a secret he can't tell them.
