October meant fog.
Fog rolling in over hilltops where moisture covered everything and left a frigid chill in its wake, a chill that clung to everything, from bare human flesh to car windows to the skirts of women who ought not to have been out at the hour the fog came.
It was in the hours nearing midnight on that Saturday in October, when a haze of clouds hung over the slight sliver of the moon that illuminated nothing. The neglected street lamps, their glass casings broken and bulbs long since burnt out, did about as much.
This darkness provided all of the cover that he'd need that night.

It was their fifth Earth anniversary of the day that it had happened, and somehow, the survivors managed to celebrate simply being alive.
These celebrations reminded Remy of Mardi Gras, where people seemed to be happy just to live and love. These were not as grand, and alcohol was sparing. He watched from the windows of the Stark Manor, the place that he'd not planned on being his home, though it had ended up that way. He watched people dance in the streets that they'd finally paved.

Though the rules of time should have changed, they still followed an Earth calendar. The clocks still counted 24 hours, though the sun rose and set at different times than they were used to. The months wore on drearily, with people coming and going but the landscape never changing. A few shanties sprung up here and there, but never anything of substanceit seemed that no one but Stark could afford to reinforce the delicate Mars soil with concrete to keep a building up.

Their temporary destination was a safety station that had been set up on Mars. Long ago had they found water and sustained life on the planet, though it was still red, dusty, and dismal, despite its grandeur. The only people who could afford to settle on Mars were those like Tony Stark, who went with all his riches and had entire cities built, cities that now served as refugee camps for those who had escaped what had begun to be called the Apocalypse.
There was knowledge of crime in deep in their Earth-dwelling hearts, but none was committed on Mars. Everything was too fresh, too new, and those who had arrived there wanted to make it love

So there it was, within her sights. The end of the world.
From her room on the Space Colony transport ship, Diana Trinity could see the asteroid on its way to collide with the Earth. She pressed her hands against the windows and watched, in silence, as the telltale streaks of light began to fire off across the outer layers of the atmosphere. Diana had turned off all of her lights so that she could simply watch as the place where human life began came to its end.

She remembered a story that someone had told her.
A story of how an angel was not a soul that rose up to the heavens, but two. The souls of two lovers, intertwined to become one pure being made solely of love without sin. How the two wings represented them.
The story told of fallen angels, as well. How when darkness and evil influenced the angel's heart, the two lovers became separate again, and the stronger devoured the weaker. An angel with one wing, black as night.
Marie remembered this story very well. And she knew it to be true. She had waited a thousand years, perhaps more, for the souls of those who had raised her to complete the cy

Her Royal Highness - Prologue
It had been the first time that the grand thief had nearly been caught, and her body made no mistake in reminding her of that fact.
The small woman's breath came in short, pained gasps as she pressed her back to the icy brick. Spotlights shone from behind her on the city skyline, announcing the grand opening of an exhibit, filled with treasures from kings and emperors alike. It was supposed to be as simple to steal from that as it was as simple to buy from a market. Except for the paying part, of course.
But there had been some flaw in her scheme, and now, Riné Alistair was pressing a cloth to her knee, dabbing the blood that trickled

I don't have many watchers, so not many people are going to read this.
I came over from my Seta-sempai (https://www.deviantart.com/seta-sempai) account a while ago. I left it for personal reasons. I like to write over drawing. I'm not a very good artist. I'd also like to delve more into cosplay.
Nothing very major is going on in my life. So there's nothing to report to the few of you that watch me.
