I remember the day I met her, as if it had happened yesterday. My toy line had been a complete failure. The fillies didn't want a Smarty Pants doll; they wanted brightly colored princesses with manes you could brush and lots of accessories. We watched in envy as the other toys got sold, and dreamed of the adventures they could go on, adventures that we would never experience. We all knew it was a matter of time before we would all be simply thrown out. "Mommy! Mommy! Can I have one?" The voice of a young filly begged. I peeked over the other toys to see what she wanted. A very young purple unicorn sat on the floor,  cradling  another Miss S

I was the ebb and the flow. I wondered what stories I leave behind on the rocks. I heard the whispered tales the raindrops tell. I saw light waves scatter and break at my surface. I wanted to trickle into the euphoric oblivion. I was the ebb and the flow. I pretend a storm is rolling in. I feel the searing heat of the Sahara sun. I touch a memory, the icy fingers of a passing glacier. I worry about what comes after the flow. I cry at the sound of my own extinction. I was the ebb and the flow. I understand that I too shall reach the end. I fear it anyways. I dream of old days, filled with merry boats and cheery passengers. I try

I was born in a smiling house With a white picket fence And a guard at the door Where Mama whistled cheerily while she made me a sandwich And Papa came home, laughing Playing with me before even changing his bloody uniform One day, Papa solemnly took me to work And told me I needed to know what evil looked like. Evil was behind a looming metallic fence As a little girl, covered in dirt and naked. I thought I could see her entire skeleton Her huge hollow eyes bore right into mine All life drained out All but a spark of hate and fear. I asked Papa what made them evil He sneered. "They were born evil" I cried. How terrible it mu

Before the paper, I was a mute Smiling meekly at the world I searched for the perfect words to say And the conversation died before I could find them When I found the paper The words came out, naturally Suddenly, my emotions were visible Suddenly my words had meaning! And I was praised, artistic, even! Eloquence came naturally, every phrase just right From the very beginning However, when the paper doesn't work I become mute again Staring at the page, agonizing Somehow, between my head and paper, I had lost the words In my thoughts so meaningful, on the paper so trite And the words are left, racing around in my head Begging

Forten is a very interesting character, one that I rarely use as a main character. I have never written from the perspective of a character that I've disliked so much, yet I've found this character incredibly fascinating at the same time. Forten ni Fones is from the planet Eviraton, which means that Forten is without a gender or sex. Forten also has the appearance of a child, but is really at least twenty. Forten is a very goal driven person. Forten has wanted to go into space for as long as Forten can remember, and will go to any lengths to accomplish this. Like most Eviratonists, Forten is very uncomfortable with things that are strange,

The story itself, which I'm currently calling "the space story", is fantasy, with the skin of a sci-fi. It is a bleak dystopic story about a crew who is assigned to search for four of their former crew members who mysterious disappeared a few years before. The series is told through the perspective of Forten ni Tumnuse, and focuses on Forten and their 3 friends; Tenebre ni Hiem, Alae ni Aesta, and Sereta ni Vera, who are all from the planet Eviraton (if you know any Latin, you're probably having a heyday with these names) and the early part of the story focuses on the struggle they have to go through to join the crew they eventually will, whi
