Quote of the Week


People always stared at her when she passed. Plushies rarely wandered the streets on their own. She knew most of them were looking for her owner. Truth of it was, so was she.


The Dice-a-Roo Avatar



In any case, Dice-a-Roo hates me and I hate how it won't keep giving me things forever and ever. But I do like avatars or rather, I like how getting new avatars makes my count go up. For some reason, I keep thinking that having that number become one higher than it was before is reason enough for enduring the crushing disappointment of not getting the silver dice. But I still try. Again and again. Here is how I yet again stunningly failed to get the avatar...

"Agree to Disagree" by cactusthorn2151
The building sat dark and empty. I approached the Kyrii, a question written on my face. He simply gestured with his eyes to a slightly crooked sign hanging from the window. "OUT OF BUSINESS," it read. Below it, in cheap pen ink, was scribbled, "Next time, try getting your meals from a ruthless corporation," almost sarcastically.

"Infinity" by blueys45
Nestled away in an isolated cave in a far corner of Moltara was the aptly-named City of Lights. Lamps and lanterns of all shapes, sizes, and colors adorned the walls of the cave.

They were the Fireflies...

"The Coffee Wars" by smokingurl05
I had entered the Art Centre and made my way through the Deep Catacombs, with nothing on my mind but a simple Purple Juppie Java. The minute I entered the Coffee Cave, however, that Purple Juppie Java was wiped clear from my brain by the sight that met my eyes. There seemed to be a full out war going on, with coffee cups flying to and fro so fast that they were nothing but blurs. Every few seconds I could hear one of mugs shatter over the din of shouting Neopets and their...
