"Hey, Rin?" Rin looked up at me. She was sitting in a chair and a cocoon of blankets, wrapped up. I was proud to say that I hadn't forced her into them; she'd actually gotten really cold. Normally, it would've been me. "Here," I say, handing her the mug of coffee I had ready. She takes it, but then frowns at me. "What?" "How do you know that I just wanted to make sure you wouldn't drop it?" She rolled her eyes at the reference to that night last week. "Becaaaause," she said in a voice that claimed that she was superior to me, "I'm your twin sister. I know when you have more to say, so how about you come out and say it?" "Fine," I sighed,

My eyes are squeezed shut, and my teeth are gritted, but that doesn't make it hurt any less when Alasia, the only member of my prep team with half a brain, yanks the hair off of my arm. She gives me a sympathetic look, but it's hard to take her seriously. Her hair has been dyed into a vertical rainbow- an inch of red hair, then orange, et cetera- and her lip has been pierced with an inch-long green metallic bar. "Sorry!" she gasps as I squeak a little bit. "I'm trying! It's almost over!" Surprisingly, she's the most normal of my prep team. Marcus, who is currently pulling my loose hair into calculated curls, is wearing glasses with inch-thic

Ruka was confused. Carefully, she pointed the mouse at one of the solitaire cards on the screen, clicked, and dragged. Instantly a window with "GAME OVER" written in all caps popped up. "Urrrrgh!" she moaned, shaking her head. "Solitaire sucks!" She clicked the "OK" button and her unimpressive record stared her in the face: 17 games, 0 wins, 17 losses, 0% won. "Urrgh!" she moaned again, burying her face in her hands. She was so upset with herself. How was she a Signer, amazing at one card game, and at the same time such a total flop at solitaire? Why was she so awful? And, the most important question of all: why, why did she care so much? S

day 001// "Akiza, I came up with a new test, and you're going to go through it first." She nodded as they made their way into a strange place in the Arcadia Movement building. She'd never been there before, but it didn't matter. And it was customary for Sayer to test all of his new limits on her, his "most worthy member." They stepped into a stone corridor. "This one is to make sure you don't crack in a tough spot. It'll only be two or three days, a week at the very most. You'll be provided with food from a generator, and water." He unlocked a door and she stepped inside. The room was somewhat small and cylindrical, with a single window abo

To him, I'm nothing. He says he loves me. (He doesn't.) To me, he's everything. I say I love him. (I do.) He says he loves me with his whole heart. (He doesn't.) He means he loves me with a corner of his heart. (He does.) I say I hate him for not loving me more. (I don't.) I know he doesn't love me and I love him anyway. (I do.) He'll never love me, no matter what. (I'm not her.) I'll always love him, no matter what. (I'm me.) But I wish I could be her, so that he would love me. (He'll never love me.)
