Oh, did you expect these to be super short-stories? ЁЯШП One can hope! But honesty compels me to describe them as super-short stories.

All the while, his svelte tail maintained a separate and more sedate tempo, dipping in and out of multicoloured inks, delicately calligraphing and engraving invitations to the Ultimate TableTop RPG.
