Pocket Tales

1 - Nine Lives Loyal
Bella never quite understood how familiars worked, and never really concerned herself with it-her chosen career was brewing all sorts of things, and Ava always found her way back to her each time.

2 - The Well of Writing
Careful what you're looking for, because you might find it. The Writer knows.

3 - This one villain doesn't monologue, doesn't dress up, doesn't even bother with a name. Frankly, his motivations are none of anyone's business.

4 - No good action goes unpunished.

5 - The time killer watch
The watch had been loud when Amale followed its ticking until she found it, and quietened once she held it, and the silence that descended when she used it to freeze time was louder than death.
